    The Sounds of Christmas

    This is the song I keep listening to over and over again this year. Joy Williams' original version 25 years ago was good in its own right, but this one really resonates with me. It retains the mystery, wonder and joy of the original. The poetic lyrics are easier for me to understand and...

    Narnia Which-Way books

    I read some of those kinds of books when I was a kid. They were a lot of fun. That's really cool there are Narnia ones!

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    All those working on Greta Gerwig's adaptation are in the pay of the White Witch!

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    Is anyone going to organize a mass boycott of the new film? That would be amazing to see and be a part of.

    The Horse and His Boy 71st Anniversary (Teaser Trailer)

    This one is really good! I saw the play; it was excellent. Tashbaan is such a pivotal act of the story. You can really play up the tension and suspense in the establishing shots of the streets and the markets there, etc., and I'm really glad to see some of that in the trailer.

    Which order do you think the books should be read in?

    Somewhere a few years ago I was reading an article about that "8th chronicle" from an entirely different author. From what I remember reading it stated that that was another story about Digory and Polly. I clearly remember it emphasizing those were the only characters that author felt free to...

    Things you'd never noticed

    I just reread The Horse and His Boy, over the course of about a month. I would read about a chapter a night, sometimes half a chapter, slowly to catch all the details. I had forgotten how savage the Tisroc was and how dire the situation was in the Old Palace of Tashbaan, when Aravis and...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    That's pretty much how I feel. Personally I have strong doubts I'll even see it. Much of Walden Media's Prince Caspian and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader were painful enough for me, and Netflix seems like it could be far worse. I suppose I might watch the trailer. This is why I am so glad the...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    I do also suspect sabotage is the direction they're heading. One possible glimmer of hope though is the idea that sometimes the rumors could actually be "feelers" these companies themselves began circulating. For example in this case with Netflix and the Narnia reboot, the idea is that they...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    Yeah I am not looking forward to any future film adaptations of Narnia films for the foreseeable future. It's truly depressing seeing how the movie industry tirelessly works to destroy the worlds and works of great minds like C.S. Lewis. Give it about another 10 years, and not only will there...

    What Narnia book is Greta Gerwig adapting first?

    Narniaweb reported on the casting call the other week for the new Narnia film for two child actors, a boy and a girl, around age 10 to 11. Digory is 12 and Polly 11 in The Magician's Nephew. Having actors close to the characters' ages would be the right place to start. It does look likely that...

    The Sounds of Christmas

    This Advent I found yet another version of The Angel Gabriel that I absolutely love. I've only now discovered "The King's Singers." Wow, those voices!

    Byzantine and Gregorian Chant

    At the beginning of the year, my mom and I were getting the inside of our home thoroughly organized. As a part of that, I assembled a few pieces of furniture, not necessarily my heart's fondest inclination, but an important component nonetheless. I figured the best approach would be to play...

    The Magician's Nephew Fan Film

    This is really enjoyable, charming, nostalgic and well done. This is the same family that brought us a film project of Out of the Silent Planet. Here they present Chapter 1 of The Magician's Nephew. I'm optimistic they will continue on with the rest of the story. 😃

    What Are You Listening To Or Watching Now??!!

    The other day I came across a Mr. Monk movie that came out last year. I saw someone posted on here about Monk a while back. For those who enjoyed the Monk series about the OCD detective that ran from 2002-2009, this movie was great and refreshing! The first few minutes are a little slow, but...

    Peepiceek's Odd-One-Out Quiz

    So #61 has been solved then, right? One duchess and three dukes. I'll try #68. Uncle Andrew had to pawn his watch and chain in order to entertain Jadis to (a) the exceedingly expensive and ostentatious lunch that she demanded. Although Bree, Hwin, Shasta and Aravis raided some farms before they...

    What Are You Listening To Or Watching Now??!!

    I've only been watching two series these days. Blue Bloods is in its 14th and final season, but it is being spread out with some episodes in the Spring and the rest in the Fall. I saw all of Season 4 of The Chosen in theaters; unfortunately, it will be a while before it is released on DVD or...

    Post Something Positive!

    Sir Godfrey, I love how the weather you experienced timely reflected the mystery and glory of Christ's Passion, Death and Resurrection. What a remarkable consolation of God's presence. I was bummed I had to miss Holy Thursday and Good Friday services this year and didn't think I'd have energy...

    Peepiceek's Odd-One-Out Quiz

    And back on #64: #64. (tricky) (a) Aravis (b) Liln (c) Jadis (d) Polly I found a connection with Aravis and "lady." After Aravis and Hwin cross paths with Shasta and Bree (for the first time), Aravis tells them her story. When recollecting about how she evaded her marriage to Ahoshta, she...
