King Kong vs Narnia

I watched both shows this week. Both were like the blockbuster kind of shows that movie goers will watch this christmas season. And both did have some snow to complement this Singapore chirstmas in which we do not get to see snow. Anyway, here are two alternative views I gathered about the two shows.

Narnia: Basically its a combination of stories from alice in wonderland, lion king, lord of the rings and santa claus made an appearance too. Appearently there was some connotation to Jesus cruxification as well. The main characters entered another land through a wardrobe(alice in wonderland), ended up finding a lion (lion king), fought a war along and against some non-human creatures(lord of the rings). Santa appeared somewhere in the midst of the story to give the main characters to present which they will use. There was also a part in which the lion sacrificed himself by allowing himself to be humiliated and killed.

King Kong: It is a story about a sentimental child who got hold of a pet and fought hard to keep and protect the pet. Full stop. Simple enough?

In order for King Kong to re-appear on the big screen again, maybe someone can consider using King Kong instead of the lion when they film the next Narnia show?
