🔥 + the movies ( ooooh )
OK SO BUCKLE UP, because guess what???? in a lot of aspects the narnia movies are just so much more enjoyable than the books. i’m not even gonna lie here, i was introduced to the movies first, and then when i tried to read the books i was honestly super bored and just couldn’t really enjoy them. and i’m someone who loves to read. even trying to read them now when i’m older, i still have a tough time getting through them because there’s just this.... lack of detail and imagery??? in my opinion at least. a lot of the character’s personalities don’t exactly leap off the page, and some of it is just weird to picture.... like aslan walking around on his hind legs and shaking peoples’ hands. i would honestly have a very hard time taking that seriously oops.
although i hated the dawn treader film with a passion of a thousand suns, the first two movies explored these characters’ personalities and flaws quite wonderfully. peter’s anger and difficulty adjusting in the second film at being a man and high king back in the body of a boy and his struggles with pride and letting go??? amazing. susan in the first film clinging to logic and reason so desperately because her mother told her to be a “big girl” and adults are always supposed to be smart and reasonable??? fantastic.
now i’m not saying i hate the books. i do like them, i really do. i just happen to enjoy the movies a tiny bit more.
