Also, the trailer for The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe damn near made me cry.

I never read the book... I think I might have to pick up a copy.

Good book, though my skin is crawling over the fact that Disney is handling it, and a religious movement has circled around the film, claiming "It's the Passion of Christ for Kids".

No, it's not. Read the book, it's about the empowerment of children. :)
CS Lewis had a great sense of imagination, to boot.

We read the book in Sunday School in High School...and the parallels to the Passion of Christ are everywhere in it. CS Lewis was a christian, and intentionally used Christian allegory in a large portion of his novels...but it is still a damn good book!

I read it when I was probably seven or eight, and didn't get the Christian stuff until I was probably fifteen, and even then someone had to point it out to me...

...and I was so upset that I didn't read them again for probably five years. Why couldn't it just have been a damn good story?

[Unknown site tag] and I were there and when that trailer run, I had four words:

I...Am...So...There!

There were about seven of us in the theater, and we all reacted that way...
