Well worth the wait

Rating: 10/10 (10 December 2005)

On my birthday, December 6, in 2001, I remember a news item on the Fox News Channel announcing that Walden Media was also jumping into the fantasy book/movie craze and has just secured the rights for a film version of The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. I have been waiting ever since. And I can say it was well worth the wait.
The only major complaint I have is that they made too many small changes that I didn't see the point for.
Tilda Swinton, despite being miscast, gives an excellent performance as the White Witch and deserves an Oscar nomination. In fact, I would nominate this film for Best Picture.
Good job to everyone involved!
