It says a lot about empowerment and fractured families coming together. Uh-oh...

Better than expected news. When I heard the name Disney in on this project, I assumed disaster. But I will now be prayerfully hopeful.
Please ping the Catholic and Anglican lists -- oh ye keepers of lists. Thank you.

In Narnia, the children discover talking beasts, dwarfs and giants who have become frozen under the spell of an evil White Witch. The children cooperate with the lion Aslan to overcome evil.
The lion is Britain, the dwarfs are all the little countries and America was definintely a giant.
I wonder...

Better hurry indeed.
See how quickly these companies now want to produce films that christians will go out and see??
I better finish my script where lawyers try to steal Christmas in a small town...

What a shame that the likes of a giant such as C.S. Lewis has to be associated with the likes of a Michael "Gay Day" Eisner. One would think that another company could have been chosen, such as perhaps...Icon Productions

I like the Narnia books and I highly regard C.S. Lewis. I am bitterly disappointed that Disney is going to film Narnia. I don't see how they can do anything but ruin, pollute and damage the message.
Blecchh.

I think I recall seeing some threads on FR a year or two ago saying that Disney (or another studio) wanted to remove the Christian analogies from the story.

That was the first thought through my mind when I read the story.

Maybe Disney won't have Eisner to kick around much any longer -- God willing.

If Walt Disney were still running Disney, this would be great news.
But Michael Eisner, the anti-Disney, is running Disney now.
Therefore, expect the movie version of "Chronicles of Narnia" to be Christenrein.

The family was fractured as a result of war in the books. Disney will most likely make it a divorced/never married situation, unfortunately.

"... See how quickly these companies now want to produce films that christians will go out and see??" Remember the filth they peddled under the guise of 'We're only giving them what they want'.

I remember seeing at least part of the animated Narnia story on TV as a kid. Anybody remember who put that out? I seem to recall at least the first two books were on.
