I'm not usually a movie kind of girl. In fact, our TV's been unplugged for about...what, three years now? And I'm not really missing it.
But yesterday, we went to see The Voyage of the Dawn Treader at the movie theater. And I liked it! And I was able to resist the temptation of eating buttery popcorn with oil and bad flour and calories and health issues!
Yaaay!
But seriously, I liked the Dawn Treader. Here's why:
1. I like their official website. It's pretty, and bright, and it has lovely music.
2. Edmund Pevensie looks so...Edmund-ish. He has the strong character, the seriousness, and the firm air I always imagined Edmund in the book to have. Lucy and Eustace were very well acted too. :)
3. The fighting scenes were great - quick, admirable moves without too much violence or bloodshed to get disgusting.
4. I like Reepicheep better than Dobby. Oooh, now just wait for the anger that'll start...
5. The movie was exciting without detracting too much from the spirit of the original story, and it didn't remove the Christian values in the book, which I was very relieved at.
There were only two things that a little annoyed me. One was that Caspian had a beard. He was handsome and everything, but I don't know...I just don't like beards. I'm sorry. The other was that Aslan's voice wasn't deep or thunderous or impressive enough. But on the whole, I definitely like this movie and I don't regret breaking my media-fast for it. :)
