Hollywood did it right
OMG. I just got back from seeing The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe and it was awesome. This is the third attempt to translate this classic tail into the visual medium and it is the best one to date. I have seen all three, and I even have copies of the other 2 and while they are ok for when they were made, they were restricted by technology and budget. I know there are some people out there that will complain about things they changed, left out all together, or added for drama. I feel they did what they had to do to eliminate the need for a narrator like in the book and to make the movie a viable franchise without losing the core of the story. I won't post a lot of details here so not to spoil it for others, but I do offer one piece of advice, do not leave once the credits start rolling. That's it. I am going to go see it at least once more while it is in the theaters and I can't wait for it to come out on DVD. I hope that it does well at the box office and it turns into a franchise like Harry Potter and LOTR. I would love to see the Dawn Treader sailing to the Lone Islands and to see both the creation and destruction of Narnia.
I might post more later after I know others have seen the movie.
