Oh. Em. Gee.
Went to the midnight showing of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe last night. I've been waiting for this movie for about 14 years.
I'm usually EXTREMELY critical of movies made out of books I enjoy (Harry Potter comes to mind; I made fun of the flying dementors and things like that). But this is the harshest thing I have to say about this movie: "I thought the White Witch would have black hair, but it looks fine the way it is, actually." It was cinematically breathtaking and fairly true to the book. To say I enjoyed it would be an understatement; I'm going to see it again tomorrow with different people.
Anyone else see it? Thoughts?
