Oh . . . this shit is fucking tight. (Excuse my language.)
Have you read all books in The Chronicles of Narnia? 'The Magician's Nephew' is the best (the first, with the creation of Narnia, etc.), but I mean . . . Let me cry until I can't anymore when Asland dies for that DUMBASS kid. I understand he was needed to fulfill the prophecy, but if I was that lion (which, I AM a lion), I'd have kicked the shit out of someone.
When I saw the movie, it reminded me of a Lord of the Rings, Jr. But that's because Lewis and Tolkien were BFFs and wrote a lot of shit together, and while having the same muses and influences. I don't know. I'm fascinated by random things.
PS I like the allusions to Atlantis in 'The Magician's Nephew'.
