After seeing how Amazon demolished The Silmarillion and Disney pillaged both Indiana Jones and Star Wars, Netflix has decided to join the fun by defacing The Chronicles of Narnia.
Netflix has the rights to make Chronicles of Narnia movies now, and it has chosen actor and director Greta Gerwig to make said movies. I’m not joking. Netflix wants her to write and direct two Narnia films.
I watched two first original Narnia movies. The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe is quite decent. Prince Caspian, on the other hand, is full of grrrl power so I stopped watching after it. Not sure how many were really made, I think three. I can only imagine how bad the new version will be. Yet I bet there still will be many who will watch it, including Christians, while complaining how it's not really what they expected. The reason so-called conservatives keep losing is simple: they can't even sacrifice some mindless entertainment for the sake of their principles.
Aaron Clarey of Captain Capitalism blog fame made the point years ago that even most Christians are too lazy to give up their Starsux coffee and such to have any affect.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds always think alike:)
ReplyDeleteBut it's the problem of (nearly) all conservatives. Because the leading conservative principle is F888 you, I've got mine.
