Although religious myself, I think it's a travesty that they dulled down the more atheistic philosophies of the film (Golden Compass). Narnia was meant to have obvious Christian themes, and it did. This is meant to have a more atheistic point of view, and they dulled it down a bit to please censorship groups. I'd prefer it if the movie would have stayed truer to the books. Anyway I still plan to go see Golden Compass, and I plan on enjoying it. I love fantasy movies, even if everything since Lord of the Rings has been pretty much a re-hashing of the same sort of film style.
I just think that if you are going to make an adaptation of anything, keep it's message the same, and don't water it down because you are afraid of public criticism.
I plan on going to see Caspian as well, and I fully expect it to be chock-full of Christian philosophy.
I don't see why people can't just get past philosophies and enjoy a film, no matter what it's message or moral is. Films are meant to be entertainment, and if it's good entertainment, it makes you think some, even if it's something you may not agree with. That's no reason to be afraid of it. Organized religion really pisses me off sometimes.
How ya doing, buddy?

FGSFDS!!!
