Guess what -- it's five o'clock now. Forgot to talk about the Narnia movie. I was somewhat underwhelmed by it. Don't get me wrong, it was a good movie and faithful to the book, and I just love Tilda Swinton. But the kids' acting was sometimes not very good, and I don't remember Susan being such a panty-bunched nag. And sometimes the CGI was lacking. No regrets, but still, not a mememorable film, in my ever-so-humble opinion.
Oh, and all those damn Disney movie trailers were a bit much.
So today I read the last book of the Chronicles of Narnia. It's got to be the most satisfying finish of any series I've encountered. It makes me [almost] wish there could be a place like in the final sequences, but I dare not. Don't laugh at me. I wish there really was someone like Aslan, someone I could pour my love out to. I don't know how to explain it. And I better not hear from anyone that I need to find Jesus Christ. It makes me sick how the Christians have jumped all over this movie, claiming it as theirs.

About Me
- Name: Newpeep, N.D. (neurotic depressive)
- Location: United States
Whateya need to know about me? Hmmm, I'm not clever enough to summarize myself concisely. Guess I'm underdeveloped, a late bloomer. Still trying to find my way in the world. I've already found my way *into* the world, which I suppose is a step in the right direction ... isn't it?
