    Revelation Paralleled with The Last Battle.

    Some of the world ending events parallel those in Revelation because probably that would have to be the case. That said, I don't think everything in TLB was meant to directly parallel Revelation simply because they were two different historical events. Consider for a moment how two world wars on...

    Things you'd never noticed

    Great question. Who says if the moon cooperates you can't have twelve 28-day months? Or if the days were longer, maybe 28 hours long rather than 24...you couldn't have fewer days than our earth and yet still have the same amount of hours in a year? Makes my stripes hurt.

    What Do You Hope That Narnia Films Or Series Get Right?

    That's just too strange...to see Ginger at Defense Technologies, Ltd., behind him a map of the world, talking with Rishda about the glories of the military-industrial complex.

    Superheroes and Supervillains

    I once jokingly suggested a version of LWW titled, "Oh, Wardrobe!" A musical romp through war, death, and resurrection with 10 original songs by Peter Schickele.

    Episode Titles Ideas.

    It would give away too much, but each chapter in VOTD could be named for the virtue it represents. Courage, selflessness, persistence, etc.

    What Do You Hope That Narnia Films Or Series Get Right?

    Socialism is the philosophy that rights belong to mankind but not to men. That can only be realized if people put their faith in the state rather than in God.

    Oh absolutely, Jasmine. Absolutely.

    Superheroes and Supervillains

    While Lewis hinted that these villains may have had a backstory, I'm sure he'd be horrified if we suggested that only their circumstances made them who they are, and that they didn't choose the wrong thing for the wrong reason. These days if Hollywood did Paradise Lost, they'd have the Devil...

    What Do You Hope That Narnia Films Or Series Get Right?

    Ironically if Walden had kept the franchise, they could have used today's motion-capture cgi to make virtual younger Pevensies so they could appear in The Last Battle.

Another World (Oh wait, that was a soap opera...) 7. The Red Badger of Courage 8. Elf Improvement 9. It's Forbidden to Look a Lot...

    Untold Stories That Narnia Episodic Series Could Tell

    I would love to see at least ONE lighthearted episode that took place when some human was not arriving through a portal to prevent the end of the world as we know it. The fact that most of Narnian history was like that was openly said in the stories themselves.

    What Do You Hope That Narnia Films Or Series Get Right?

    I think that WHATEVER they do should not fundamentally negate or bend the tone of the canon. For instance, O Henry wrote a short story called "The Fourth Wise Man" about a fictional also-ran among the wise men from the East. That's ok because despite what you've always heard, the Bible doesn't...

    Untold Stories That Narnia Episodic Series Could Tell

    What I want is a story about how Narnia coped with the disappearance of the Four Pevensies. Honestly I couldn't imagine this happening without conspiracy theories, assassination speculations, thoughts of magic, etc. And who would have the moral right to take the helm? I had some definite...

    Superheroes and Supervillains

    I wonder if anyone at Walden Media asked themselves seriously if Lewis was too naïve about storytelling...or if he was too brilliant. The whole idea of an evil that simply CANNOT disappear completely is jumping all four paws into the chasm of dualism. As if somehow good could not exist without...

    Superheroes and Supervillains

    The thoughts of superheroes terrifies me. Imagine...after years of fighting crime against all odds...you decide to take off ONE WEEKEND to save your sanity and break the monotony. And during that one weekend a little girl is kidnapped and killed and her parents look at you like you're worse than...

    The Last Battle vs. Other Works of "Apocalyptic Fiction"

    I'm going out on a limb here and suggesting that Revelation is not written to scare people into being good. It's written to reassure good people that no matter what it looks like, good will win in the end and the dictators of this world...whether the Philistines, the Roman Empire, or the Martian...

    Wood Between the Worlds

    Oddly, some of them might have been alternative earths. Such as the one where the Axis powers won World War II.

    Episode Titles Ideas.

    How about "The Fellowship of the Ring," "The Two Towers," and "Return of the King"? Oh, wait, nobody would ever use those for titles. How about, "A New Hope?"
