The scene when Lucy first steps into Narnia was the first time the actress had ever seen the set, so her reaction to it all would be genuine :)
Wow! Im a narnia fan but dont know this before! Thanks
@@mustafafh4402because it's a lie
@@DeadPiixxel Here's a quote from the actress who played Lucy:
“They actually blindfolded me,” Henley explained. “They passed me down the stairs, man to man, you know, into Kelly Park,” a New Zealand equestrian center where the Narnian wood stood on a set the size of a rugby field. “They took off the blindfold, and I walked out, and it was actually amazing. So actually Georgie’s first reaction is actually Lucy’s first reaction.”
@@DeadPiixxelNo its not a lie. Georgie Henley who played Lucy tells the story in the behind the scenes special features on the DVD.
and it was her first time seeing James McAvoy in his Mr. Tumnus costume, so her surprise was real there too
Fun fact: In the next book "Prince Caspian," we find out that the dumb mice who cut away Aslan's cords, were given the gift of speech because of their actions. And one of their descendants would become one of the most beloved characters in the 7 books. Sir Reepicheep the Mouse.
Fun Fact: The reason the professor believes them at the end of the movie it's because he actually WAS in Narnia
Why their video keep skipping so many parts
Who is he in narnia
@@vigor3697 The professor (Digory) and a friend (Polly) witnessed Narnia being created by Aslan as children in "The Magician's Nephew" which was written as a prequel to The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. They also accidentally woke and released the White Witch Jadis from her dead world and unleashed her on Narnia. She was defeated then but came back in between the two books.
@@-FourthInquisitor Reactors can't show the whole reaction because that would also show the whole movie and RUclips copyright would block them.
That is told in the first book, "The Magician's Nephew." Good point.
Fun fact: the professor was the first person to enter Narnia. The book was called the Magician’s Nephew. It explains the lamppost and the creation of Narnia and how the wardrobe was carved from the wood of a Narnia tree.
which he only added (the lamppost) to spite Tolkien, who said no good fantasy could have a lamp post in it
-----
@rachelhurla2563
-----
- The grand irony behind that is the fact that Tolkien adds two...
And branded himself kind of a hypocrite in the process.
Funny how life works some times.
Although technically, the story goes he was in fact talking about electric lampposts.
So he created a nifty little loophole for himself there.
-----
@@BizzyX78 lol that's pretty funny
-----
@rachelhurla2563
-----
- If we really stretch the definition way beyond normalcy...
Historically speaking, there were actually four in total if we were to count the two trees in 'Valinor'.
Which illuminated the land there, besides the two lamps that were placed at the far corners of 'Middle Earth' to illuminate the land there.
-----
This is incorrect, the professor, Polly, the white witch, and the Cabby who would become King Frank were all the first people in Narnia as they arrived at the same time.
The best part of this reaction was watching Ellie become devastated by Aslan's murder... knowing what was coming.
This is a beautiful analogy of Jesus' crucifixion. Aslan was Jesus, and he sacrificed his life to pay for Edmund's transgression. Then he rose again, breaking the old covenant.
The Turkish delight represents the silver given to Judas Iscariot and the professor’s use of logic to prove Lucy right is based on C. S. Lewis’s trilemma to prove Christ’s divinity.
The author of the original book was C.S. Lewis who was a close friend and colleague of J.R.R. Tolkien, the author of "The Lord of the Rings" books.
Being raised Christian Baptist this was a series of books I read very young. Aslan is a metaphor for Christ returning from the dead. The cartoon made me cry so much.
CS Lewis was a friend and colleague of Tolkien whom later wrote The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings.
Georgie Henley who played Lucy is 29 now and has directed her own movie.
The Bible also says that Jesus is a man of color with white wooly hair not a white man.
@@DeadPiixxelAnd?
@@DeadPiixxel The hell are you on about?
The Bible says a lot of rubbish most of the time, depends on how each person interprets it.
@Mithras-jp4jp not rubbish sorry you feel that way ill pray for you
So glad you enjoyed this movie. The rest of the Narnia films are great. C.S. Lewis (the author) and J.R.R. Tolkien became great friends in school, so in addition to watching the other Narnia films, I would also recommend the movies "Tolkien" (2019) starring Nicholas Hoult and Shadowlands (1993) staring Anthony Hopkins.
Ellie gets so wound up in a movie i laughed when she was swearing at the witch and Michelle had a giggle lol.
This movie is one of those that had a lot of church groups taking trips to see it. C.H. Lewis’s (guy who wrote these books) faith was most likely inspired by his close friendship with the Lord of the Rings’s author J.R.R. Tolkien, so like in the LotR trilogy/books, there are a lot of analogies back to Biblical stories and historical events - biggest example is how Aslan is a shadow of Jesus Christ (one of the names for Jesus is the roaring lion, Aslan sacrifices himself in place of Edmund - a traitor - just as Christ died on the cross to atone for humanity’s sins, then he comes back to life, like how Christ rose on the third day, and the stone table split down the middle, just like how the curtain over the temple in Jerusalem tore in half the moment Jesus died).
Also, Edmund is such an interesting character to me now that I’m deeper in my Christian faith and study of the word. He’s thought of as a traitor by everyone on the good side - and by every set precedent he is - but Aslan, I.e. God/Jesus, is only concerned with bringing him home, not what has been done. This is how it should be, always. I won’t go into a deep, philosophical discussion about it here, however that’s what the good book says about us, too, and how we should treat those that come to Christ seeking forgiveness/coming back seeking forgiveness. People may turn from you/shun you, but Jesus don’t. That’s why analogies in movies like these are so striking and powerful, and have a lasting effect on the media that come after it for generations.
It makes me love the line "what's done is done there is no need to speak to Edmund about what has passed" even more
I've read, that - while Tolkien was catholic - Lewis was protestant and they had kind of a falling out. But they were close friends in university and I believe until the end.
@@galdramann2478They also had different views on writing. Lewis was all for putting his faith in his writing. Tolkien was not as much a fan (though I do believe he subconsciously added some in, since an artist's creation reflects them)
C.S. Lewis not C.H.
Both Lewis and Tolken's work was heavily influenced by a fantasy author, George MacDonald who wrote Phantastes.
Ellie's reactions to Aslan's sacrifice and return to life are everything! It's beautiful to see someone get so attached to the King Above All High Kings in Narnia, and to realize in the end that there was a reason for him to die. He had a plan.
And yes, Turkish Delight is indeed what you call 'lokum'! A company called J.S. Fry & Sons created a chocolate-covered version of it in 1914, and marketed it in the U.K. Late in World War II, food rationing became very severe in England, and it probably became very hard to obtain sweets or other non-staple foods. So by that time, Turkish Delight would have been a real luxury to Edmund.
Thanks so much for reacting to this movie!
In America we have the more traditional version coated with powdered sugar instead of chocolate, made by a company called Liberty Orchards. I love it but it's more expensive than other candies.
These girls’ sense of empathy always blows me away. Such lovely reactors ❤
So one fact about the Turkish Delights is that they are actually enchanted, so they literally act like a drug on Edmund. That's why he goes to the Witch and gives her information in exchange for more candy, he is not a traitor just because he *wants* to, but because of the irrational *need* he has for more of them.
I really wish they had added that information into the movies so we wouldn't misunderstand Edmund so much.
Ellie is so adorable when she's crying, i just wanna hold her 🥺🥺💕💕
Just delighted to see Ellie, Lia & Mish charmed by this film. They join so many others around the world who love & admire these stories, in film or books. Hopefully we'll watch the sequels with them too.
A loving interpretation of C.S. Lewis's beloved parable for kids, and it's almost perfect in every detail.
the first is definitely the best of the three they made into movies. along with how well they stuck to the book the practical effects are gorgeous and the soundtrack is 👌👌
Awww, y'all's reaction was so cute! Loved watching my family's favorite movie franchise with you! (LOTR, The Hobbit and Prince of Egypt are also up there on our list!) Yes, you have to watch the 2nd and 3rd! They did an amazing job adapting from the book! They kept everything that was necessary. CS Lewis would be so proud of how they told his story.
Ellie, I find the White Witch so beautiful but seeing your emotion was even more beautiful... I cried at the cinema too! You have to see the second movie and hopefully soon! Peace 😘
The good part is Disney did not write the story. This was written by CS Lewis. There was an animated version of this story a while back. I remember seeing it as a kid during the 80s and was thrilled to see it was being made into a live movie. I was not disappointed in it. The other thing to note is there are a lot of parallels to Christianity. If you read the Bible, or just knoe some of the stories about Jesus, in particular the parts about the sacrifice he did for the sinners of the world. He died on the cross (the Crucifixion) having committed no crimes himself for the crimes of others. (Good Friday). Then on Easter Morning the Resurrection of Jesus. A lot of parallels between the stories.
Also, there are 2 more movies continuing thr adventures in Narnia. Check them out as well.
I love Narnia! The story and the score music are absolutely, beautifully soothing!
This film is based on the popular book 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' published in 1950, written by C.S. Lewis
I use to watch the animated movie from 1979 when I was a kid all the time. My great grandparents had it on VHS at their house
i just love the emotional investment! makes it feel like im watching for the first time again.
During WW2 lot of families in the UK sent their children to the countryside so they be safe from the war. Reminds me of one of my favorite characters from the show Sliders since he grew up during the war and he also went to the countryside while his dad was fighting in the war.
I never watched Sliders, but I recall that Gimli was in that show... only, y'know, a lot taller...
@@Hiraghm that's right. Before he was gimli je was on sliders as one of the protagonists. It was thanks to his character I became interested in history. Especially since my grandfather was in the navy during WW2.
“This is brutal.. why?” To pay for the sins of us all…
If you like this story, I highly recommend watching the version made for the WonderWorks public television series in England. It's very faithful to the book, and while it doesn't have much budget, it is absolutely full of heart. Plus, they did the next three books (with more or less editing for time) in the series. They're long, so they don't really lend themselves to a reaction channel, but I do recommend watching it on your own time, as it's wonderfully done.
Lol that one was fun, but I think only for the people who have nostalgia over it. I think new viewers would find it a little too hammy to take seriously.
@@thecaptain3594 Perhaps, but it does tell the stories much more faithfully, especially for books 2 and 3, which the modern versions completely botched.
Watching this, I can't help but think of "The Magicians."
My friend who had read the books took me to see this in the theater.
Coming out of the theater, he asked me what I thought...
I said, "I feel clean".
Just like our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ! They thought they had power over him and were killing him, but what they were actually doing was freeing his power by the blood!
In the sixties my 5th grade teacher read us this book and I have not ever read it on my own, but when I saw this film I remember the dialogue to a tee and this film really follows the books account which I really appreciate
Did you ever watch the animated movie from 1979?
This movie is one of my all time favorite movies and it makes me happy to see you ladies watch it.
Omg I'm soooo happy to see you girls review this 😊 I grew up watching this. I love everything about it. I went to see this in the cinemas back in the day of 2005. You girls are definitely reviewing a whole lot of great movies 🎬 you girls are great also 👍 👌
I love 2005, it was the year I graduated high school.
If you wonder why Professor Kirk was so curious about the magical land in the wardrobe and he explains to Lucy in the credits scene that he tried to go into Narnia (after the kids told him about Narnia), it's because he was the main character in the book The Magician's Nephew, where he gets to Narnia along with his mad uncle who's a magician creating some magical rings that can take you to other worlds. Before Digory (that's Professor Kirk's first name) and his friend Polly get to Narnia, they get to the world where Jadis the White Witch resided and had destroyed it, as she tries to take the magical rings, she gets dragged into our world in Victorian London (late 19:th century) where she have a fight with the police using her whip. In the fight she grabs a gas lamp with the whip and uses it against the policemen but then she gets dragged along with Digory, Polly and the Uncle to an empty world where they see it being created when a lion roars (which is Aslan, of course), thus Narnia was born with all creatures and plants appearing. To protect the newly inhabitanted world (a couple of other humans is also dragged into what became Narnia, they become the first humans there) Aslan ask Digory to get a magical apple from a garden that The White Witch just have taken over, which he succeeds and the apple tree that bloms from it protect Narnia from Jadis and Digory gets one of the apples from that tree as a reward, which he gives to his mother who is sick (probably from cancer, he same sickness as author C.S. Lewis own mother had, unfortunately she passed away when he was a boy). Afterward he burried the seeds from the applecore in their garden along with his uncle's magic rings (he becomes really insane in Narnia and is trapped there for the rest of his life), which grows into a beautiful tree. Sometime during Digory's adult life, the tree gets hit by lightning one stormy night and he makes a wardrobe out of its remains, becoming that very wardrobe that the Pevensies get into Narnia in the future.
About the gas lamp, as mentioned earlier The White Witch ripped one out during the fight against the police and when she got dragged into the world that would become Narnia, a fragment of that lamp got sucked with her and landed on the ground, which eventually grew into a gas lamp, the same one that Lucy finds .
Please watch the second movie
"Narnia: Prince Caspian " ❤😊
Funny you mentioned that it reminded you of Lord of the rings.... the battle scene took place in New Zealand, same place as Lord of the rings 🙂
Plus JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis were friends 🙂
The professor did go to Narnia in the first book....😊
The book about Narnia had 7 stories and They made moves about the 2nd, 4th and 5th stories. This one is the 2nd story, and it involves the professor and the street lamp.
I don't know if you read comments or not but at the end of the movie when you see the older versions of the children riding in the forest; the actress who plays older version of Lucy (the youngest sibling) is Rachel Henley who is the older sister of Georgie Henley who plays young Lucy.
The post credits scene in this movie is so emotional
The actress who played Susan actually shot an arrow when filming the final battle in the rocks. As far as anyone knows, it hasn’t been found
Man I wish they kept making these films, it just bothers me it didn’t finish! I read all the books and although it wasn’t perfect I very much enjoyed the movies and it made me sad when years went by with no fourth film. I read they’re making new ones but … I was already in love with these ones 😭😭
I was blown away on how long Ellie was touched by Aslans resurrection!! Ahhh!! And much like what some have pointed out Aslan is a figure of Christ which is for the resurrection🙌🏼 definitely watch the 2nd and 3rd! But sadly that is as far as they go as of right now in the series.
The BBC did a miniseries for TV in the 80's and 90's that covered the Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe, Prince Caspin, Voyage of Dawn Treader and The Silver Chair. It very dated now but worth a watch if you haven't seen it. No one has ever tackled The Magican Nephew, Boy and his Horse or The Last Battle other then books and Audio and Radio productions.
My sister taught me how to read with these books, before I even started school. Narnia was my first introduction to fiction.
There is a movie about the author of this book called "Shadowlands" (1993) staring Anthony Hopkins. Absolutely beautiful film about love.
C.S. Lewis who wrote this story, was close friends with J.R.R. Tolkien who wrote the "Lord of the Rings". They often talked to each other when writing their books.
You all would love the collection of books set in this setting. I think Lia would enjoy reading it with her little one.
This movie is really amazing, one of the best disney movies i've ever seen in my life. It give me a lil bit harry potter magical vibes but it's unique in their own way.
Did you ever watch the animated version from 1979?
O dublador que deu voz ao Aslam no Brasil, faleceu antes de sair o filme Príncipe Caspian. O substituto também tem uma voz linda, mas o primeiro era excelelente.
20:45: Do you ladies recognize the *voice* of Aslan? 🦁
It’s Liam Neeson, who you’ve seen in Taken, Batman Begins, Schindler’s List, and Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.
Elly os literally 10 year old me watching this movie for the first time 😅 I was crying too... These movies have a special place in my heart, there should be at least 7 of them since there are 7 books but unfortunately they only got to the third one for some reason 😢
So much nostalgia! I adore this movie! I would suggest watching the next movie Prince Caspian as well to get the next part of their story.
25:32 lia you are absolutely right to ask what was the price
First time that I watch a video of these girls and they’re so sweet.. I loved it
also the one on the left crying is so me fr hahaha this movie is really special to me ❤️
Aslan is like jesus, or even God himself in the world of Narnia, he was before death even existed, withouth giving much spoilers: his roar can bring life
there this religious message in this series, about faith and miracles, that is pointed into towards younger audience, about moral teachings and good deeds.
The father in the setting is the Emperor Beyond the Sea with Aslan being the Jesus allegory in the books.
Also the books do have a lot of really racist BS in them, there is a good reason Horse and His Boy will never be adapted to film.
We need the three of them to react together to the second and third films as well, in each of them Aslan's true identity is more unmasked, they are wonderful and very beautiful films, they really make you feel like a child again.
I still have these movies on DVD! They've always been comfort films for me
These were the first books I can ever remember reading as a child. I think there are 6 of them. But this being the first was really my first jump into a magical, fantasy world , and I will always have a soft spot in my heart for them.
Finally you watched! Movies are amazing!
Loved the reaction all around, but I'm giving Michelle top score because she has the funniest "what the f*ck did I just see" face.
I love this film bc of the creatures & how they presented the creature. I’m a Greek Mythology fan & that led me to like shows such as Xena & anything Hercules.
My fav mythological creatures are Centaurs & I love how they’re presented in this film. I also love mermaids, griffin/gryphons, satyrs/fauns, etc.
The next film is my fav of the series. Hopefully you’ll get to see why.
Please watch all 3.
Even though people leave out the 3rd one, it's my favorite as it is the funniest one.
Can't wait for the reaction!!!
Ginarkbrik is played by Kiran Shah, who is most famous for being the scale double for Frodo, Merry (in the scenes where Merry and Pippin are on their own) and Bilbo in The Lord of the Rings and reprised Bilbo in The Hobbit trilogy plus played a bruning kid in the prologue of An Unexpected Journey (he's a stuntman as well), the small Goblin in Goblin Town sequence and the Goblin Scribe and Thain in the Extended Version of Desolation of Smaug.
Ladies, yall are positively glowing!
Extraordinary, to the delightful Ladies of Reaction in the land of Spare Oom, may I have the honor to say
Welcome to Narnia! 😇
One of my favorite scenes is Professor Kirke speaking to Susan and Peter about the wardrobe in the spare room (along with everything else in the movie).
I saw narnia during Christmas break 19 years ago 2005 with my dad grandma and sis . But I still couldn’t stop thinking about King Kong .
The horse Philip is voiced by producer Philip Steur.
i've always loved the stories of the jesus allegory lion
Narnia is such a gem! Definitely watch the rest of them too.
Os livros são fantásticos, eu li as sete crônicas em sete dias
And the lamppost that Lucy first saw was the iron lamppost that Jadis used to attack Aslan and it grew into a lamppost that never goes out.
and the Professor was the first person to enter the world of Narnia by making a cupboard from Aslan's magic apple tree that he planted.
He was in a group of 4 when he came over, far from the first.@@boypyro4410
Wow The Chronicles of Narnia is very emotional movie but girls you must to watch the season 2 wich is more entertainment as well . Oh I miss this 🍿 so much ❤❤❤.
I love the soundtrack in this, and for the battle is one of my top played tracks and much like the reaction to the battle seen it gets me goosebumps every time ^_^
So glad you could share this fabulous story with your fans. This is one of my favorite books and movies. Your responses were absolutely precious. BTW, are you, the Homies, aware that you are stunningly beautiful. You often wear little or no makeup and still you put Hollywood's glamour girls with all their makeup to shame. I'm well past 70, grew up on Miami Beach and have seen my fair share of beautiful women. The only ones more beautiful in my eyes were my first wife who died very young (23 years married) and my current wife even after 3 children and 24 years of marriage. ❤ all your reactions.
Some information about the saga, if it is going to be included in the other movies and series that Netflix will release.
C.S. Lewis was a great friend of Tolkien (writer of the Lord of the Rings) and part of the fact that the works are similar is because the writer was inspired by what Tolkien did and even he recommended writing fantasy.
The Narnia saga is designed to a certain extent to evangelize its readers, the entire saga has references to God and the Bible. The sacrifice of Aslan and his resurrection is a clear reference to Jesus, his sacrifice for man and betrayal, as well as his resurrection and thus is full of references throughout the saga to the Bible.
The reason why Santa Claus appears is because at Christmas in a certain way the birth of Jesus is celebrated, and Santa's arrival also announces in history the return of the lion who is god or Jesus and I could follow him, but I think They already got an idea.
My two favourite writers from this genre, amazing series Chroniles of Narnia and Lord of the rings
Posiblemente no me entiendan porque es un comentario en español pero, un fun fact es que el escritor es Cristiano y es una metáfora de lo que es Aslan, la bruja y Narnia. Aslan representado como el león de Juda (Jesús que murió por el pecado del mundo y resucitó), la bruja como el Mal del mundo y todo el que cae en el le pertenece... Y así sucesivamente. Los libros y las películas son hermosas.
Otro fun fact el escritor de Narnia y el Señor de los anillos se conocían y por lo mismo su escritura de fantasía son similares y también Tolkien es Cristiano. (C. S Lewis es el escritor de Narnia)
The books werent writen in cronological order, this takes place in the 3rd book of timeline but was the first book writen, i cant think of the name of the 1st time line wise but its the origin of the witch, the creation of narnia and explains the wardrobe it was never made into a movie but is an amazing story
The street lamp is the oldest living thing in Narnia other than aslan and the witch
Please Prince Caspian next.. then Voyage of the Dawn ❤
As a Dane, I'm not going to be calling it lokum... I'm sticking with Turkish Delight, thank you.
Contact the guy who wrote the chronicles of Narnia was best friends with the guy who wrote Lord of the rings, so yeah, it’s kind of similarities of the two movies
PLEASE watch the 2nd and 3rd movies. You're gonna love them!
Loved your reactions! Kinda sad you guys didn’t react to the end credit scene!
The authors who wrote Lord or the Rings and Chronicles of Narnia, were best friends, and used to give each other tips and ideas
For a second there I thought the mic in the thumnail was a robot. I was like.... that doesn't look like a Narnia creature, more like a Transformer.
this is the best reaction that I have see with people reacting to this movie.
I love it especially the one on the left Ellie if I dont mistake.
ps. did you watch until a minute in the end credits there came a another clip with the professor and Lucy that tried to go back.
What sucks was that the Voyage of the Dawn Treader did bad that they never did the Silver Chair meaning we never got to swe the rest of the book series as films
If you guys loved this you would LOVE Prince Caspian!! I hope you guys can watch the second one soon :) ❤️
It is interesting that you saw similarities between some of these scenes and Lord of the Rings. C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien were good friends, and often helped with each other's writing.
Here's a little tip even tho it's too late to make it into this video: there's a little mid-credits scene... in case you want to show that when you do the Prince Caspian reaction.
This seems much deeper than most Disney movies because it's not really a Disney movie. I don't know if they eventually bought it, but initially, they just distributed it. This and the other two movies that were made are based on books, so there is a lot more material for them to draw from. They stopped at three movies because so many people were angry with the movies because they were expecting them to be exactly like the books, but that's just a fact of making movies. When going from book to movie, there will always be something lost or changed because movies, by their nature, are shorter than books. I loved all three movies and I think you'd like the others as well.
The reason it was more deep is because it was from a series of book before it was made into the present movie. The author was friends with the man who wrote lord of the wrings and Alice in Wonderland.
This movie is based on a series of books. Actually, the lion, the witch and the wardrobe is not the first book of the series. I think is the third one. The professor went to Narnia before when he was younger and he built this wardrobe from woods he took while he was in Narnia. That’s why they can go through from there.
If you guys would like a treat, you should seek out the animated version of "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" that aired on CBS in two parts in 1979.
IMO, I enjoyed more than the live action version.
My brother and I watched it (I was 11 at the time) in the kid's TV room upstairs that had a TV and about 10 small bean bag chairs in it.
Great times.
please, watch the rest of the moviesssss❤
I love the part where Aslan roars and the witch turned chicken and ran!
31:00 Actually the author of the Lord of the Rings books (JRR Tolkien) was a friend and important influence on the author of the Chronicles of Narnia (CS Lewis).
C.S. Lewis studied classics at Oxford, while his best friend and fellow Inkling J.R.R. Tolkien studied language. This is why Narnia is a land of talking animals and creatures from Greco-Roman mythology. It's also why there's a lot of religious allegory.
I read the book as a kid and I think the movie did an excellent job with the source material.
The Chronicles of Narnia was written about 70 years ago, there about 6 books in the series, The lion the witch and the wardrobe was the first. C.S Lewis was a great English writer who lived about the same time as J.R.R Tolkien (Lord of the Rings) The Lion King was written yesterday, Disney had nothing to with the writing of these books, they just brought them, like they do everything else..
Narnia is one my favourites!!! Yay
Mr. Thomas the Faun is played by James McAvoy who is also younger Professor X in the X-Men movies 👍
You need to turn up the volume on the movie you are watching. I had to turn mine up to max just to hear it and even then it is not loud enough.
Great! I'm so glad you watched this movie at last! Please watch the sequel "Prince Caspian" it's a little bit darker but really great!
I saw this movie several times because I loved the books as a kid. I watched it when I was deployed to Iraq
The breath represents the breath of life
The "actual Santa Clause" is actually called Father Christmas.
