The Narnia trailer looks excellent. And here's a spoiler regarding Star Wars Ep III...

...the bad guys win.

I think this line's mostly filler.

I've got an odd Narnia trivia question. Lucy got the healing elixir from Father Christmas. What were the other gifts? A sword for Peter, a bow for Susan, and nothing for Edmund? Or is my memory off?

i've seen the new movie twice, mainly because i will never get to see Star Wars in the theater after this (that is the negative side of vcr/dvd in everyhome). this trilogy could have been soooo much more. Sith is actually acceptable to me, if not really pleasing. Ewan Macgregor really is a good actor in order to make you care about his character through all of the horrible dialogue. he is the one individual that makes his character in this trilogy, really match up with the character from the original trilogy.

my single greatest gripe is Samuel L Jackson. an otherwise enjoyable actor, managed to overact and destroy every single line and scene he was in. pathetic.

Finally saw it. Its much better than the last one. It was a pretty good wrap up of the story. I'm suprised the Republicans are not up in arms about soon to be Lord Vader quoting George Bush.

I don't remember that, but then again I don't pay much attention to Bush either.

I'll have to see it again but doesn't Ani say "You are either with us or you are against us in the fight against terror" ... maybe its just a real close paraphrase. Lucas scored a few easy points, of course he also conflates the Republic with democracy

Peter got a shield to go with the sword, Lucy also got a dagger, Susan also got a horn (the one that pulled them back into Narnia for Prince Caspian). Mrs. Beaver got a new sewing machine, and Mr. Beaver got his dam finished and mended, all the leaks stopped, and a new sluicegate fitted.
They also got breakfast.
Edward got nothing because he wasn't with the other children at the time -- he was off Being Bad.

(Okay, I have LW&W on my palmpilot, along with 40 other books...)
