[Thinlómien]

I'm maybe a bit late to comment the Narnia movie, but I hope that it doesn't matter. It's also been a while from the day I saw the movie, so I might do mistakes about the plotline etc.

Generally, the movie was okay, in my opinion. I didn't like emphasizing in every turn, that Edmund was different. The book doesn't do so, why should the movie? I think there were too many close shots from the children crying; they (especially the girls) were crying all the time. It was annoying. Only after seeing Narnia I realised how well had Peter Jackson managed with crying in Lotr movies.

The battle was well made, and after seeing other fantasy or historical movie battle scenes (LotR, Troy, King Arthur etc.) it was really amusing with all the colours and beautiful creatures. The humour (as said before) was also better in the LotR movies. I, too, really liked the Philip-thing. I was also left wondering, why on earth do they hunt the white stag? Didn't animals speak in Narnia and be equals with them? That they were chasing an evil stag, wouldn't be a good theory.

Maybe something about the movie may also tell that when going back home from the movies, I, my sister and my dad were talking about the creatures. I said: "I liked the bat-creature in the scene where Mufasa was killed". You can only imagine how hard they laughed. There were actually very much same in movie-Aslan and Mufasa. And the scene where Aslan tells Peter (they're standing on a cliff) what to do if he won't be there and so on, it's just like the scene in lion king where Mufasa shows his kingdom to Simba and tells about being king. (I'll stop here, because this isn't Comparing Narnia and Lion King -thread...)
