looks like a fairly interesting movie, even in the era of "epic burnout" mentioned in another thread. just for the heck of it,
here is what cs lewis thought about adaptations of his work.

But I am absolutely opposed – adamant isn’t in it! – to a TV version. Anthropomorphic animals, when taken out of narrative into actual visibility, always turn into buffoonery or nightmare. At least, with photography. Cartoons (if only Disney did not combine so much vulgarity with his genius!) wld. be another matter. A human, pantomime, Aslan wld. be to me blasphemy.

i wonder how he would feel about the new version...hard to really say unless i had seen it. movies have made some progess since he made this statement, although he seems pretty convinced.
