Saw the Chronicles of Narnia: The lion, the witch and the wardrobe today.



- Mrs. McCreedy was so obviously Snape's mother!

- Qui-Gon Jinn guiding Godric Gryffindor, Rowena Ravenclaw, Salazar Slytherin and Helga Hufflepuff around Middle Earth. Ooops. Wrong movie.

- but yeah, thinking about all the similarities between fandoms pissed me off.

- I liked the way they portrayed the war and the Blitz and stuff.

- Mr. Tumnus was a cheeky little faun. I liked him a lot. The only problem I had with him was his sudden bout of regret that came only after he saw Aslan in the flames.

- Tilda Swinton as the Witch was a bit soulless. Okay, so the character is like that, but she looked like she was just waltzing through the part.

- loved the Beavers. Mr. Beaver was so obviously having an affair with the Badger and Mrs. Beaver was a doll. :X

- why didn't Father Christmas bring any pressies to the Beavers? That really pissed me off!

- I have to re read the book, but did Aslan really kill the Witch that mercilessly? Being a Jesus metaphor really makes the J-man look nasty.

- I wonder if I've just watched too many of these action packed fantasy flicks. This wasn't a bad movie, but it was too grown up for little kids and too kiddy movie for adults. Quite frankly, I liked the BBC production from the 80's better, and that had an overemoting Witch and a man and a woman in Beaver suits...

- that doesn't mean that I didn't like the movie. It just wasn't that memorable, and though will probably buy the DVD, will not go and see it again in the movies.

- Harry Gregson-Williams' music rocked!

- am I a bad person if I slash Peter and Edmund?



Lots of interesting movies coming up next year! Yay!
