juz watched NARNIA

juz came back from watching NARNIA. it'll open on the 22nd... tonight's the gala premier... knew abt it when i bumped into my pri sch classmate who was also going for the same event. she told us it was gala premier... i was kinda shocked cos i was wearing a black baseball shirt n jeans...! but anyway, ain matter... cos we juz went str into the 'darkness' after collecting free pop corn combo n other freebies... the tics were great! right smack in the middle.

the movie was GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! was funny, sad, solemn, regal at the right places. Aslan was well done. prof kirk was great! peter, susan, edmund n lucy were believably kids- siblings rivalry, bossing ard etc... well carved characters. i love it! the white witch was not as icy n fearsome as i hoped she was. but check out her martial skills! she wields swords real well! but santa... was missing his red suit... was a wonder how Lucy recognised him as santa.... well, got to hand it off to the kid. only a kid could c santa in an old bearded man with a sleigh...

the movie was as the producers claimed to be (told u sometime back i met them in US) - as faithful to the book as they could make it to be. the stone table scene... the battle... wow... good sweeping scenes... good graphics...
man... juz watching it brings back how moved i was when i read the book. the stone table scene had me in tears. i had to put the book down n get on my knees. cant do dat in the cinema... the movie juz went on... so no time to get overwhelmed. but it had me sobbing nonetheless...

watching the movie made me want to re-read the whole chronicles!

PLS GO READ THE BOOK! n if u dunno how much of the gospel was alluded to in the chronicles of Narnia, call me... i'll be glad to share.

thanks Ah Li for the tic! blessed time tog.

I also cried when Aslan, the king who did no wrong, chose to die on the stone table... It was a good reflection of Christ's love for undeserving sinners like us.

Sister, U r welcome.. I too was blessed by the conversation we had during dinner & enjoyed the movie fellowship ;)

Praise God for His love!

Have a blessed Christmas !
