Narnia, revisited

Narnia came out on DVD today, so the geeks that we are, me and Michelle had run to Futureshop lunch-time to buy our own copies - Futureshop even gave out a very nice decorative tins as an alternative case to go with it. And pretty much as soon as Dragon walked in through the door we put the DVD in and watched the movie again.

What a delight it is. Of course impact isn't as big as first time around, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it - this time paying attention to slightly different things. It's one of those movies that is so full of detail there's lot to pick up on the second go too. First time I was mesmerized by the cute Georgie Henley as Lucy and serious Anna Popplewell as Susan - but on the second go I have to say I really liked Skandar Keynes as Edmund the best (without leaving out William Moseley as Peter - especially in the later scenes in that handsome armor). Edmund is the most difficult part of the children, and Skandar Keynes manages to bring just the right amount of darkness and depth to the part that makes him believable as the traitor.

It's time for bed now, but the 2 disk special edition DVD includes over 10 hours of bonus materials... can't wait to see them.
