  The CGI in this film is incredible for its time.

  When I was a kid, my sister and I convinced our Sunday school teacher to let us watch this movie in class by telling her they were based on the Bible, because we really didn&apos;t want to do actual Sunday school stuff. But the movie is too long to watch in one class, and she could never remember where we left off, so we just kept getting her to start very close to the beginning. We ended up watching the movie for like 2 months, and the teacher was so curious about Turkish delights that she tried making them at home. She enjoyed making them so much that she started her own business around it and stopped being our Sunday school teacher.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZ1rfJ_toMo&amp;t=1149">19:09</a> Fun fact! C.S. Lewis, the author of the Narnia books, was close friends with J.R.R. Tolkien, the author of The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. Tolkien obviously took world building super seriously, and was so annoyed that Lewis was putting Santa in his story with no explanation that allegedly he almost ended their friendship and stayed annoyed for so long he told his official biographer about it to put in his biography 😂

  The four Pevensie siblings were very well cast, you could really buy them as siblings, and their intereactions were very authentic.

  It&apos;s insane how good Aslan looks, unlike the Disney Live Action Lion King, Aslan can still look like a real lion wjile still have an emotive face.

  I think that Edmund gets an unfair amount of shit from everyone bc the movie fails at establising WHY he&apos;s such a selfish little shit. But in the book it is actually explained that Edmund always feels like he&apos;s a left-over that no one likes; Peter is the &quot;brave one&quot; that everyone respects, Susan is &quot;the smart one&quot; that everyone admires, Lucy is the &quot;baby one&quot; that everyone thinks is adorable and wants to protect, and Edmund is perpetually just The Middle Kid. He doesn&apos;t have anything &quot;special&quot; about him that singles him out from the others, he feels like everyone overlooks him as being simply &quot;the third Pevensie&quot; while everyone else is singled out for a specific characteristic - and so, he really resents his siblings because he thinks they think they&apos;re better than him. He doesn&apos;t feel like he&apos;s liked by them, so he doesn&apos;t like them either. <br>And he&apos;s so ready to help Jadis because he has Abandoment Issues from his dad leaving for war and then his mum leaving him on the countryside; so the second there&apos;s an adult who&apos;s apparently willing to be there for him and give him attention and say that he&apos;s worth as much as - or even more than - his siblings, he likes it because he doesn&apos;t feel very loved at home (also he wants Turkish Delight because someone apparently told him it was delicious and he was curious idk; he hadn&apos;t had much candy since the start of the war, so I guess anything would do). Also, he&apos;s like, 13 - he&apos;s selfish and needy by default. All this other stuff just exacerbates that. So yeah, I think that comparing him to Zuko is a great comparison, because they both go through basically the same arc, of realising they have potential and value by themselves and don&apos;t need to be compared to or overshadowed by their respective siblings. And after they learn that, they both become the best characters in their respective stories. <br>I&apos;m sorry this became a rant, I just really really love Edmund and I think his arc is a fun character study.<br>TL;DR: Edmund is a little shit because he has Abandoment Issues on top of Middle Child Syndrome and being 13; he&apos;s also amazing and the best character in this book.

  I actually liked Prince Caspian, had a darker edge and I felt as if there was more world building

  I&apos;m pretty sure someone has already said this but them being adults is a metaphor for what the writer felt when he returned from war just having to be a teenager again after going through a war and being forced to grow up. Also i don&apos;t remember if they ever said this but i thought that the portal to Narnia only works if you aren&apos;t looking for Narnia.

  Interesting trivia about Edmund:<br>Turkish Delight is specifically a Christmas candy. His request for it from Jadis might have been the first act to directly weaken her power. She kept Narnia in a state of “Always winter never Christmas” and a Son of Adam got her to bring a little piece of Christmas into the world.
