I have met a couple of other people who also like the Last Battle! I am in fact always curious to hear why people like it. I just, I can't, because when I was five it was the most horrifying ending possible and it still kind of is. Which is entirely personal preference! Them all dying creeps me out a bit, and of course the problem of Susan is the problem of Susan, but really what alarmed me is the idea that frolicking Narnia adventures forever and ever without adversity was supposed to be happy. It always struck me as static and therefore terrifying.

I think I am willing to be excited about the Dawn Treader movie! I mean, I am especially excited because I just watched Prince Caspian again and I want MORE, so. :D

Ahh, that explains it! I never ever told anyone about the getting-into-Narnia thing; it was too ... sacred, maybe? Something like that.

Heh. Poor Lewis would be appalled with us all! This pleases me slightly, because I am contrary.

I... seem to remember my Dad trying to explain the whole stone table = cross thing to me?

My dad did the same! And even before I really got what that meant, I did have this one quite Catholic friend when I was little; she always wore a cross necklace, so that's what I associated it with, and when my dad told me about the stone table = cross thing, I immediately went, "Well, it's a good thing that in Narnia they don't wear stone table necklaces! That would be awkward." XD

I do not mind! It was actually just a process-of-elimination thing where it was the best school in the district; I actually totally loved my Catholic school, which did indeed have the uniforms (plaid skirts! but I usually wore khakis, so) but didn't have any nuns. The only lasting effects I took from it besides a good education are a lot of geeky facts about the Gospels and the accidental memorization of the Lord's Prayer. :D
