Nov. 27th, 2005 12:07 amThey're running this commercial for the Chronicles of Narnia video game which encourages you to go online and get the cheat code for the game so that no enemy may stand before you and that you may save Narnia!
I can't help but wonder, is cheating something Aslan would approve of? Would he really want us to win at any cost? O Narnia, what has become of thee? What has become to the beautiful poignancy of C.S. Lewis's gentle masterpiece if it is reduced to a mere pretense of mindless, bloody combat where victory is achieved through treachery? If that's the world we're living in, then people may as well take the breathtaking mythology of J.R.R. Tolkien and start making the Hobbit characters have gay sex with each other...
Wait a minute...
