[QUOTE="Queen_Dopplepopolis, post: 2778466, member: 14323"] I went into the movie about as excited as every child in the audience. I've been giddy with excitement to see this film for a year and it did not disappoint. As a Christian, I felt the allegory was as strong as it could have been while still making it a film that a non-Christian would enjoy - in fact, I even picked up on some things that I hadn't in the book. For example, the breaking of the stone table with the deep magic written on it as the breaking of the stone tablets that the Old Law was written on. I also picked up on the women following Aslan as the women followed Christ. Highlight of the night: The Universe, while on the way to the parking garage, gasps and says, "Hey! Peter's name is Peter!" *chuckles* However - I do appreciate the fact that you can watch the movie without feeling beaten over the head with the story of Christ... I feel that's sort of a necessary thing. This morning, I was reading EW's review and was astonished to see that they were complaining about the special effects... something along the lines of "you can see all the digital seems" and "all of the fauns look like they have just stepped out of the make up chair." Maybe it was my child-like sense of awe and wonder, but I never for even a second thought "wow - these special effects could use some work," and that's usually something I do pick up on rather quickly. Lucy - cutest little girl I have ever seen. Throughout the entire movie, I just wanted to squeeze her - she's SO adorable. In the end, my largest complaint is that we lost the narrator. In all of the books, he has some of the best lines and, because he was lost, many of his lines were missing. I go 9.5/10 - loved it, can't wait to own it... [/QUOTE]
