HMMMMMMM?

Do you really expect anyone to complain if they did? Well, I guess there's one way to find out; hurry up and tell the Pope of Atheism to organize a boycott!

Why anybody would care about someone else's reasons to see/not see any given movie is beyond me. THOU SHALT GO TO HELL UNLESS THOU SEEST EACH NARNIA MOVIE AT LEAST THRICE.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

There's not so much an uproar as a "Hey I heard this doesn't agree with our beliefs, let's not watch it." And while this isn't entirely accurate since Golden Compass doesn't have much bashing, I think they'd be pretty comfortable boycotting the entire series even if they knew that.

Yes, I imagine this will lead to some not giving it a fair chance, but ultimately that is still their decision and none of your business. On the other hand, some would say that no publicity is bad publicity. And I don't remember Narnia entirely lacking in atheist criticism when it came out, either.

"Leave us the frell alone." Technically, that's pretty much what they're doing.

I don't particularly care for either series; in fact if anything I like HDM a little more than Narnia. I just calls 'em as I sees 'em.

Sorry for derailment, perhaps these past 8 posts should be split off?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
