Something that is interesting in the book, is that Aslan does not discuss any of this at all ahead of time and aside from the two girls watching, the other figures in the story aren't told about it. Aslan, in fact, doesn't want the girls to watch.

Obviously, Aslan is a Christ figure. I haven't seen the movie. I can imagine opportunities to be as gross as possible, like Passion of the Lion for kiddies.

In the book, the lion afterwards explains that ANYBODY who offeres their innocent blood instead of a traitor's would cause death to be undone. Which is kind of weird, as it's not according to christian theology.

I think I probably won't be watching the movie. All the movies that christians really like all suck. The heteronormativity of the nuclear family penguins. The Bondage of the Christ. Bah.
