A whole lotta...nothing.
So…I really have nothing to write about, but I feel bad neglecting my blog. I don’t feel TOO bad because it seems no one really has anything to write about. On my way to a wedding this past weekend, I ate at McDonalds. I find that I am critical of other McDonalds and how they do things. Those of you who live in my old town—be grateful, you really do have a very clean and well-run McDs. Wow! That was almost…sweet. I also find that I will jump to the defence of McDonalds if someone is berating it. I've already done that a couple of times at my new job. Interesting. My experience there was good times. Just look at how many entries it got me!
I saw the Chronicles of Narnia last Thursday night. I really liked it. I was told by a friend that she "bawled and bawled" throughout the movie. I guess I'm really hard-hearted, because I never teared up once. I thought it was very well done, yet not on a 'Lord of the Rings' scale. But that's hard to beat. Hang me if you want, but I'm getting slightly annoyed by all the Christian groups who are rallying behind the movie and making it into a huge deal - holding messages afterwards and small sermonettes. My thoughts? I think they should just let people enjoy the movie, and not make it into a "Christian" movie. Sure, it has Christian themes in it and if you're familiar with the Bible, you'll get it. Even if you aren't, the themes are still there. In the book, CS Lewis didn't go into a "here's what every part of my book means" section, so why should we? He let it stand for what it was - a good book. I think when churches and other groups make such a big deal out of it, it turns people off, and they miss a really good movie. Just let it be (Shout-out). If the quesitons arise, go for it, but don't try and shove a message down peoples' throats and analyze every little piece and character. Let people and their kids enjoy it for what it is.
There you go.
Um, I guess that’s all.
