Why didn't I see it sooner?
Mar. 9th, 2006 02:40 pmI just saw Chronicles of Narnia. God, what a breathtakingly BEAUTIFUL movie. As a fantasy buff, it was a visual smorgasborg. Fauns, centaurs, mermaids, minotaurs - sweet Christmas I was spoilt! Those mermaids were AWESOME! And that faun guy - he was SO CUTE. God. I think I'm crushing. Those eyes, those gentle eyes! *melt*. And the kids all grew up so hot. And then bam. Kids again.
But yeah - LOVED it. Reminded me of when I was a kid and the teacher was reading the book out to us at school. That was nice. I reckon it's a special book. You know why? When the teacher was reading that book, the girls were nice to me. They even played with my hair and said it was beautiful. (The girls hated me in year two).
And oh gosh, that kid, Lucy? SO CUTE! I want one like that! What a bright little smile she's got!!
I tell you, it was a real pleasure, a real treat, sitting with my Mum and watching that movie. We were both delighted with it. :)

Date: 2006-03-09 01:25 pm (UTC)I know- wasn't it gorgeous? I am still upset it didn't win the oscar for best Visual Effects- it was soooooo beautiful!!! The creatures, the scenery, everything. Perfect!!! And just faithful enough to the book that I adored it.
Yeah they do all grow up hot- don't they? Incidentally, grown-up Lucy is played by the RL older sister of the little girl who plays Lucy so it's no wonder they look alike! I want grownup!Peter!!! He is hot!!! That one glimpse and I was like *spontaneous orgasm* (which, before, has been a reaction reserved for Orlando Bloom.)
