Douglas Adams, Narnia, and Trailers
A few interesting movie tidbits: Joel Greengrass writes "Final post-production has been completed on the long awaited documentary, 'Life, the Universe, and Douglas Adams.' Narrated by Neil Gaiman, the film is a tribute documentary about the life, loves, and passions, of the greatest sci fi comedy writer ever, Douglas Adams. The film will be available for sale on August 4 at douglasadams.com."
Reader The_Shadows writes "Sci-fi Storm and Scfi.com's Scifi-wire are reporting that Walden Media exercised options for feature-length, big screen versions of the Chronicles of Narnia, by C. S. Lewis. They have also found an Emmy award winning writer (Ann Peacock) to adapt the most famous book, 'The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.'" And finally, there's an interesting piece about the process of turning a two-hour movie into a two-minute trailer.

You mean well. And I'll give you some points for emotion. However, signing the post anonymously is unacceptable.
If you have something to say (which it looks like you do) step up and say it... but don't hide away. Stand up for yourself, your beliefs.
Bottom line: if it's important enough to create a petition and post several messages; it's important enough to put your name on it.
Until you do, you're just another flaimbait-posting, Anonymous Coward.
Well, since all religion is based on lies it's off to a bad start but in Lewis' case the lack of subtlety is the worst part: Tolkien got across many of the same moral and ethical values without jamming it down the reader's throat.
True Christianity is not about Religion, as in a bunch of rules to follow, and i's to dot, and other such nonsense. Many have said otherwise, and many will say otherwise, but you are right, those are lies. Christianity is truely about believing that Jesus Christ has saved you, and declaring him Lord. Period, that is it. Nothing else.
Most people who do believe in Christ, and I mean really believe in Christ, do their best to not sin, out of honor and love for Christ... but we definately do sin, that is the truth.
I am sorry that your experiences with religion have tainted the idea of Jesus Christ - but, accept this challenge: Think about Christ as Lord, and shedding His blood as payment for us. Maybe even ask God to open your heart to the possibility, and show you if it is the truth or not.... and then make your decision.
Take care,
