I have to agree with Rose, The chronicles of Narnia is better than LOTRs. Esciapply with its spiratual themes, I hope they keep those in the movies.

I have all of them, they are all good; esciapally the last three. RT did a good job of dratimising them.

Strangly enough, I just listened to the "Lion, Witch and Wardrobe" RT drama one for the first time. I read the book when I was little, and it scared me so much, I never picked up the book again until reciently. Now that I can understand the spiritual aspect of the books, I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it. If they do make the movies, I really hope they keep that spiritual analogy through it all...and make it really clear.

Yeah, "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" has a most importante theme that they just have to keep in; how much God's love us and how he sacreifised his life for us. It's just so remarkable. I think Douglas Gresham is a Christian, is that correct? I hope so, and he pusses to keep the spiritual themes.

BTW, Smeagol, when will you be posting when a movie has gone or a new one has came? Same with your video shop, when will you twll us about the new releases?

Dude, he grew up with CS LEwis...I'm sure he influenced him. And he deffinatly sounded christian in the Radio theatre dramas...He wrote his part. And it's not like they paid him to say those words.

They didn't? Are FOTF that broke? From what I hear, DG is a nice man. Which could very well mean that he is a Christian. I sure hope so.

Gresham is step-son of Lewis or something, right? I thought I heard a long time ago that one of the stepsons of C. S. Lewis was an evangelical and the other had at some point (I think before his mother married Lewis) converted to Judaism.

I'm pretty sure that Douglas is the Christian stepson and I think he actually heads up a Christian mission in Ireland or something like that.
