I don't think so. If you read the first book in the series, The Magician's Nephew, you will find that the Professor is in this book as a boy, and him and his friend Polly discover Narnia, and Aslan is there too.  I don't want to spoil it in case you haven't read the first book, but the Professor is involved in the creation of Narnia as a boy.  It's a pretty good book, not as exciting as Lion Witch and Wardrobe.  C.S. Lewis (the author) was a popular Christian writer, and I think that his story is analagous to the Gospel, which would mean Aslan in this story is Jesus in the Gospels.  You can see the similarity....in the book (movie too) Aslan sacrifices himself to save Narnia, he is the all knowing, all forgiving one, he is murdered by those who do not understand, yet he forgives them...It's pretty cool when you think about it.

problem involves Nicolas Flamel. Flamel was mentioned as being 665 at the time of the first book, but Nicolas Flamel was a real historical figure and wouldn't have reached that age until 1996. The rebuttal for this is that the date the "real" Nicolas Flamel was born does not correspond with the Nicolas Flamel of Harry Potter.\n\nNicolas Flamel was born between 1330 and 1340, and he died in 1418. He lived Rue des Escrivains at Paris (France), he was a book seller.He was born without particular wealth. His wife Pernelle, that he married in 1370 and who died in 1397 was not rich anymore. The more famous of the alchimists was not an alchimist.At least never did he say so, yet it was an activity not only honorable, but prestigious. All the most, never did he say that he had made gold. When he was living he was a perfect unknown one.

The only thing I could find about Disney characters and drugs are linked below. I guess that the catapillar in Alice In Wonderland is smoking something, but we will never know what it is, as it isn't identified in the book by Caroll

Griffin, is the correct answer.  Here's what Wikipedia.org says: "he Griffin in (Persian شیردال‌ shir-dal meaning lion eagle) (also spelled gryphon and, less commonly, gryphen, griffon, griffen, or gryphin) is a legendary creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. Often, griffins are depicted with a pair of prominent ears, traditionally termed "ass' ears". Since the lion was considered the "King of the Beasts" and the eagle the "King of the Air", the griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature. Some traditions say that only female griffins have wings. The griffin is generally represented with four legs, wings and a beak, with eagle-like talons in place of a lion's forelegs and equine ears jutting from its skull. Some writers describe the tail as a serpent. See the entry European dragon for a 19th century painting of St George and the dragon, showing a dragon very like a classically-conceived griffin.\nClassical and heraldic griffins are male and female."

He was the Elf in Narnia. I loved him more than any other character. His eyes really got to me.

It is.  It can be read in 2 ways, as either a Christian allegory, or as a children's fantasy novel.  I loved the stories as a kid, and I loved the allegory aspect of them as I got older.  \n\nC.S. Lewis wrote many other books, such as "Mere Christianity" and "The Screwtape Letters", which are different examinations of the Christian faith.\n\nC.S. Lewis was an atheist for a number of years, but conversations with JRR Tolkein played a role in turning him back to his Christian roots.  He was definitely in his Christian phase at the time he wrote the Narnia series.

Yes, Hobbes is Calvin's stuffed tiger who, from Calvin's perspective, is as alive and real as anyone else in the strip. He is named after 17th-century philosopher Thomas Hobbes.\n\nYou can see more details about Calvin and Hobbes in the given Wikipedia link.

Yes. \n\nThe world (Narnia) is given over to the cold grip of Satan (the White Witch) until the Redeemer (Aslan) comes and destroys the law of sin and death (the Altar Stone). Ref Romans 8:2\nC.S. Lewis tried very hard to incorporate how the Law of Sin and Death was irrevocable. Edmond was under the sentence of death with the White Witch being his accuser. However, the loophole was written on the altar stone that this Law of Sin and Death can be broken if one without sin would be sacrificed upon it as a substitution. The White Witch, thinking she had a victory, actually fulfilled prophecy and lost her power.\n\nAslan - Yeshua (Jesus)\nThe Kids - Christians\nEdmond - redeemed prideful sinner\nWhite Witch - Satan\nThe Altar - The Law of Sin and Death\nNarnia - The World under the curse of sin\nPeter's sword - The Word of God\nPeter's shield - Faith\n\nYes, C. S. Lewis had never confirmed or denyed, when asked this question. This is also seen in the movie Shadowland. However, why did he not confirm or deny it? Because Lewis wanted his intellectual buddies to read it and get a sense of its message redarding the world's condition and its later redemption. If they knew it was about Christ, they would prejudge it and discount it.\n\nBTW - A great movie and fantastic portrayal of the White Witch by Tilda Swinton!\n\nComing out Tuesday, April 4th! Made #23 on the all time domestic box office gross. (passed Empire Strikes Back)

I think you can thank improved technology, the success of the Lord of the Rings movies, and the success of the Harry Potter books.  That let the producers of Narnia think there would be enough demand for them to spend the money it would take to  make a movie of The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe that would make the author proud and them a bucket of money... If you haven't read the 7 books of Narnia, I highly recommend them.  If you have children grow some special memories by reading the books together, maybe an hour or so each night.  peace

Monty Python and the Holy Grail.\n\nVillager: We have found a witch, may we burn her? \nCrowd: BURN!! BUUUURN HER! \nBedevere: But how do you *know* she is a witch? \nVillager: She looks like one! \nOther Villagers: Yeah! She looks like one!!! \nBedevere: Bring her forward. \n\n(a young woman is pushed through the crowd of villagers to the platform. She \nis dressed all in black, has a carrot tied around her face on top of her nose, \nand a black paper hat on her head. She talks funny because her nose is \nclosed by the carrot.) \n\nWitch: I'm not a witch, I'm not a witch! \nBedevere: Er,...but you are dressed as one. \nWitch: THEY dressed me up like this. \nVillagers: No! nooo! We didn't! We didn't! \nWitch: And this isn't my nose, it's a false one! \n\n(Bedevere lifts up the carrot to reveal the woman's real nose, which is in \nfact rather small.) \n\nBedevere: Well? \nOne Villager: Well, we did do the nose. \nBedevere: The nose? \nVillager: And the Hat. But she's a witch! \nVillagers: Yeah! Burn her! Burn! Burn her! \nBedevere: Did you dress her up like this? \nVillagers: NO! No, no, no, no, no, no... \nOne Villager: yes. \nVillagers: yes. yes. yes. A bit. yes. a bit. a bit. \nAnother Villager: (hopefully) She has got a wart... \nBedevere: What makes you think she is a witch? \nVillager: Well, She turned me into a newt!! \n\n(pause) \n\nBedevere: a newt? \n\n(long pause) \n\nVillager: I got better... \nVillagers: BURN HER anyway! BURN! BURN! BURN HER! \nBedevere: Quiet, quiet, quiet, QUIETA There are ways of *telling* whether she \nis a witch! \nVillagers: Are there? What? Tell us, then! Tell us! \nBedevere: Tell me. What do you do with witches? \nV: BUUUURN!!!!! BUUUUUURRRRNN!!!!! You BURN them!!!! BURN!! \nBedevere: And what do you burn apart from witches? \nVillager: More Witches! \nOther Villager: Wood. \nBedevere: So. Why do witches burn? \n\n(long silence) \n(shuffling of feet by the villagers) \n\nVillager: (tentatively) Because they're made of.....wood? \nBedevere: Goooood! \nOther Villagers: oh yeah... oh.... \nBedevere: So. How do we tell whether she is made of wood? \nOne Villager: Build a bridge out of 'er! \nBedevere: Aah. But can you not also make bridges out of stone? \nVillagers: oh yeah. oh. umm... \nBedevere: Does wood sink in water? \nOne Villager: No! No, no, it floats! \nOther Villager: Throw her into the pond! \nVillagers: yaaaaaa! \n\n(when order is restored) \n\nBedevere: What also floats in water? \nVillager: Bread! \nAnother Villager: Apples! \nAnother Villager: Uh...very small rocks! \nAnother Villager: Cider! \nAnother Villager: Uh...great gravy! \nAnother Villager: Cherries! \nAnother Villager: Mud! \nAnother Villager: Churches! Churches! \nAnother Villager: Lead! Lead! \nKing Arthur: A Duck! \nVillagers: (in amazement) ooooooh! \nBedevere: exACTly! \nBedevere: (to a villager) So, *logically*... \nVillager: (very slowly, with pauses between each word) \nIf...she...weighs the same as a duck......she's made of wood. \nBedevere: and therefore... \n\n(pause) \n\nVillager: A Witch! \nAll Villagers: A WITCH! \n\n\n(they do consequently weigh her across from a duck on Bedevere's largest \nscale, and she does indeed weigh the same as the duck.)

Put your faith in God and do good deeds. (just for the record I'm an atheist)\nNarnia is christian fantasy. Aslan is Jesus while Tash is the devil. \nBut on a further level it says that whatever your believe is, as long as your actions are true, your soul can still be saved.\nIf you have only watched the movie I'd suggest reading the books as only there does the moral message really become true.\nI found the end of the last book dissapointing and questionable since it implies that its completly ok for everyone to die since we'll meet them in heaven anyway.
