Narnia
[mood|
critical]
I saw the Chronicles of Narnia today. I liked it, but there's just something about reading the books that makes it so unbelieveably real. In my head, in my imagination, Narnia was as tangible to me as anything...but on the screen it looked make believe and the incredible magic was lost to me forever. I want to read the books again so I can get the real Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy back.
Unfortunately, they did the emotional Aslan part correctly...I was sobbing when they were only hinting that a sad part was going to be coming. I was sobbing during the sad part (which is what I'm calling so I don't spoil it for those who don't know the story)and sobbing after the sad part. I <3 Aslan. Even more so after my grandma thought it was a real lion.
Oh! And those wolves were so scary! Obviously, C.S. Lewis didn't own siberian huskies or any other wintry dog...otherwise he'd appreciate wolves and know they aren't vicious animals and are quite family oriented within their packs. They only kill sheep and such because farmers are too stupid to protect their properties. Humans are more vicious than wolves. Wolves don't kill a bunch of animals, eat the "good parts" and waste the rest.
...sorry for that mini rant.
