LWW is One of Eight Great Resurrection Movies

AslanWarning, this basically spoils the story for those that haven’t seen it. But if you have read it or seen it, you’re okay to read on. It’s pretty cool. Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is ranked at number four on their list:

Who dies: It’s the only actually religious-themed entry in this list — Aslan, the lion king and Christ figure who led the land of Narnia in rebellion against the White Witch and sacrificed himself to save a bratty British kid named Edmund.

How he’s resurrected: It involves a prophesy and the fact that Aslan’s heart was pure when he was killed, etc.

What he does once undead: He goes around breathing his sacred breath on Narnians who have fallen in battle and brings them back to life. It’s like halitosis, only good.

Why you’ve gotta see it: Regardless of whether you dig the Christian allegories, the special effects are something to be seen and the story is timeless. Plus, talking beavers are always funny.
