The Chronicles of Narnia > Sue Me For Having A Childhood


Note: I can’t access nuffnang’s website. I’m getting nervous. My fingers are twitching. I’m starting to sweat. I need to see my analytics…


2008 turned out to be a year for fantastic movies/blockbusters afterall… at least the second half of the year is turning out great anyways. Just when i’ve lost all hope and sanity watching never-ending, tasteless comedies and cheesy romance stories, one after another on screen. Then comes a list of awesome kick-ass shows. First it was Ironman. Now it’s Narnia.

I’m not gonna attempt posting a review on the new Narnia chronicles (The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian) coz i sux at movie reviews. If i’m any good at it, i would be an acclaimed movie critique by now.


I actually read 3 series of the Narnia books (The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, Prince Caspian: The Return To Narnia and The Horse and His Boy) when i was in primary school. It was a hand-me-down from my cousin sister. The books were so precious, they were practically attached to me 24/7.
I loved the stories so much. It was magic. *Hey, i was a kid. Talking beavers and lion god amazed me. Sue me for having a childhood -_-”. I lost the book since then. Mom must have given it away without me knowing.

It’s only natural that i jump at the very first chance to watch the Narnia movies. I heart the first one; The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. And contradict to some who said Prince Caspian is a flop, i liked it. I would have prefer the word “love” but “like” is a more suitable word. No thanks to the boring first part of the movie. It’s the part where the Pervensie kids were brought back to the land of Narnia 1300 years later.
However, no one is to blame coz it’s according to the storyline. Nevertheless, the second half of the show was great.

They did try to inject some humour into the movie but i wonder if anyone understands it. Mr. bf and i were the only ones laughing out loud and it was embarrassing. I guess any movie is as good as the company that you’re with… that or we have really sick weird sense of humour… *i apologize to all the other movie goers who had to suffer from our loud guffaws and chortling.

I will be looking forward to the next series, The Voyage of The Down Trader where only Edmund (I have a thing for Edmund) and Lucy and another cousin will be back in Narnia for another adventure. I’ve not read this one but i’m still gonna watch it when it comes out coz Narnia is magic.

By the way, parents should really get your kid on the Narnia books. It’s classic and you’re kid will be as smart as me :P
