How does Aslan still look so realistic but still be more expressive than the lions in 2019 Lion King?

Fun fact: lucy's reaction to seeing narnia for the first time was genuine, the director chose to film the actresses first time seeing the set and used it for the film

The blockbusters of the 2000s had a damned perfect balance of CGI and practical effects, which is why so many of them hold up so well even today.

"Do not cite the Deep Magic to me witch. I was there when it was written."

This line is so cold, and it gets me every time. Chronicles of Narnia is so underrated as both a book and movie series. CS Lewis was a great writer.

Let's be honest - we ALL wanted to find a hidden world inside a wardrobe. ☃️ Also I love that you knew the lore behind the wardrobe - that's epic!

9:20 Okay, here's the thing. Edmund has been living on rations in a family of 5 since the start of the war. He hasnt tasted sugar or chocolate, or anything remotely delicious in a LONG time... and Turkish delights are PURE SUGAR. Of course he went mad for it. We all would have when we were his age!!! I mean seriously, look at some of the wartime recipes in England. It got pretty grim here 😅

fun fact: the actress who plays their mum was my high school drama teacher and because she was in the movie we would watch it for fun and ended up doing a play version- I played mrs beaver lmao

Fun fact: the lil girl who plays Lucy hadnt seen the snowy set yet. Her reaction when she first saw Narnia was genuine, as she was happily surprised to see the set.

ASLAN IS LITERALLY LION IN TURKISH. I didn't realize Aslan was it's name, because i watched this in Turkish as a child. I thought the name was originally lion and translated from English.

The ending is SO depressing. They'd have to send me to the mad house, because I'd be devastated to go from magical royalty back to war-torn land of rain and vitamin D deficiency.

16:51 The White Witch is actually wearing Aslan's mane to the battle... which is a nice touch and pretty dang metal.

Character ages vs actor ages:
Peter, 13, played by a 17 year old.
Susan, 12, played by a 16 year old.
Edmund, 10, played by a 13 year old.
Lucy, 8, played by a 10 year old.

"Everybody"
I'm already laughing 😂

Tilda Swinton was perfectly chilling as the White Witch. We're constantly told that light and beauty equal goodness, but she subverted expectations with her effectively understated performance, even when it becomes apparent that she's manipulating Edmund.

@tiimbit_7398 1 year ago

okay i love how you didnt change Lucy's "valiant" title like the others lmao, bc shes precious and we love her

@gabrielleduplessis7388 1 year ago

Also, I love how Edmund has the best arc throughout these movies.

He went from not believing Lucy to being the first one to stand by her side when she sees something. He was caught up with the White Queen and being disloyal to being one of the most loyal people in the future films.

And his trauma from the White Queen still haunts this poor kid.

And Skander’s (the actor) performance was chef’s kiss to me.

I loved this franchise, it's so slept on, and barely brought up in discussion about classic adventure franchises. Aslan dying always drove me to tears, despite it being temporary.

Aslan isn’t meant to represent Jesus he literally is Jesus in another form he dies for us any universe 😭

18:30 You know how terrible it must have been for them to realize in that moment that they have to go through puberty all over again

The witch looks like that at the start of the war because 1. Her ice crown slowly melted off over the course of the movie as her power dwindled; thus the gold and 2. She's Wearing Aslan's Mane to assert dominance
