Villagers Watching Narnia for the First Time: A Review and Analysis of the Film ! React 2.0

[@cassietad3178]

Their concern for Lucy is so sweet

[@Grinningswen]

Their disgust for Edmund is hilarious

[@Taewills]

They were like… girl, ever heard of stranger danger? 😂

[@the98themperoroftheholybri33]

To explain the ending when they're grown up and hunting a white stag. A white stag in English mythology is a symbol of passing into another world, or a messenger from God, typically it was a bad omen to kill a white stag because they're so rare, the metaphor is the white stag showed the children the way back to the real world

[@rachelh1720]

In the books the white stag would grant you a wish if you caught it.

[@011mph]

wow I never knew this. Thanks for the explanation!

[@AriMichaelNoahArlert]

It might also be Aslan. In case you didn't know, Aslan isn't just a lion. He can take any form he wants or needs, he does exist in every world and universe, and in every world he takes a different form. Within Narnia itself and in the book series he took the form of a cat, a black panther, an albatross, and a sheep, also in the end he is implied to appear in his original form, or perhaps a form more familiar for humans like say Jesus in his human form.

[@zackwest6787]

I am so glad that they took notice of Lucy not shutting the door of the wardrobe behind her. Because they know, of course, that it is very foolish to shut oneself in any wardrobe.

[@amelie.1313]

I've watched several videos with these gentlemen, and not only do they get totally engrossed in the movies, they have some amazing insights! They are also very empathetic toward the characters, especially Badshah, I've seen him get very emotional when people, especially children, are harmed in the movies. I appreciate their reactions and points of view. Thank you.

[@Mr.Ekshin]

It would be interesting to see them watch some classic TV shows, like the Addams Family. But I guess the character 'Lurch' might be a bit shocking to them... in a familiar kind of way.

Their reactions are so genuine and wholesome. The elder man said "I never thought In my dreams that I will get to see such a wonderful astonishing film"

[@mycroft16]

We named our daughter Lucy after Lucy Pevensie. She is always brave and she leads by kindness. She's always looking around her for the things others aren't seeing. Hope you'll watch all of these films. They are magical and beautiful fun with some deep truths and messages.

[@micahsnow346]

CS Lewis’ stories incorporated so many elements of traditional fantasy that we as a western audience are really familiar with (dwarves, fauns, centaurs, phoenixes, griffins). It’s really interesting watching a South Indian audience marvel at these characters seeing them for the first time. Also, the Christian connotations/allegories of this film should maybe have been explained to them, just to get some cultural context.

[@jlr108]

As a child, the Narnia series was my favourite and I read all the books many times. I never had the faintest inkling that they had anything to do with Christianity and I don't think my appreciation of them suffered for that.

[@44macherie]

@@jlr108 I also read them as a kid, and had an inkling about the Christian parallels, but wasn't sure if I was just making that up in my head. It's still a good story without knowing, but feels much deeper when you do know. I definitely appreciated the stories even more when I found out that Aslan was indeed a symbol of Jesus. And I do kinda wish that was explained to these guys as well. I think they would have appreciated the symbolism even more alongside the plain story.

[@44macherie]

I totally agree-- I also wished that the Christian symbolism had been explained to them. It makes the story more meaningful and deeper. It's entertaining for us to watch their innocence, but I can't help but feel that they would appreciate knowing the extra info.

[@sonozaki0000]

I didn't realise how different it was until they saw Santa Claus and asked who it was. To Western kids, if an old white man with a big white beard rolls up in a sleigh filled with stuff, he needs no explanation! But that's not universal. They were almost more marveled by the design of his cart (which to be fair, is pretty awesome)!

[@starsign0805]

Actually, it really depends on which socio-economic sub-community they belong to. I'm Indian and mostly everyone I know grew up watching Narnia. I was obsessed with this movie when I was 8 and I still have all 7 books in my library. Christianity is actually a major religion in India, especially in the South and North-East, so we're super familiar with western iconography and folk tales. It might also be because we're an English-speaking nation, but I remember growing up to stories like Cinderalla, Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel, and even Rumpelstintskin. But, yes, we do have a lot of our own indigenous content for children like Panchatantra and other stories based on Indian mythology that was probably consumed by everyone across the board in India.

[@raerth]

These three are the kings of this channel. Always know it'll be a great reaction when we have all 3 of them.

[@isaackellogg3493]

In the 1988 WonderWorks version of this movie, Lucy felt betrayed by Aslan that she had thought he would be dead forever when he knew everything would come out all right, but Aslan told her “I knew of the old inscription, but it had never been put to the test.” Aslan really did risk his life for Edmund’s.

[@DogwafflDan]

The BBC version is very much worth a watch.

[@marmeryside]

Aslan suffered, was humilliated and died, but not at risk I would say. He always knew he would come back to life. C.S.Lewis was writting about christianity, Aslan is Jesus Christ. He said to his disciples “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed and be raised up on the third day.”

[@isaackellogg3493]

@@marmeryside Jesus didn’t risk a lack of resurrection, but He warned His disciples ahead of time. Aslan gave no warnings, so to say He knew all along that it would be all right meant that He was purposely allowing his closest followers to think He was dead when He wasn’t, which would be a worse betrayal than Edmund’s. Since Aslan’s sacrifice was meant to rectify a betrayal, not compound it, the line indicating Aslan’s situational ignorance was added.

[@EquineDreams]

I didn't know there was a wonderworks version! Where can I find that? I only knew about the BBC version.

The old man is Digory and in the first book of the series he and his childhood friend Polly were given magic rings by Digory's uncle...

Thank you for this film reaction! I am puzzled by some of the other comments here. There is no need to send the gentlemen to a Western Civilization/ Western Religions/ Western Flora and Fauna/ Western Folklore master class before showing them The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. The film is not that complicated. The book series, targeted at young children, is not that complicated. The gentlemen understand the movie as is and give engaged, enthusiastic, and heartfelt reactions. A few years ago I watched the South Korean television series Squid Game. I am not from South Korea. I didn't know about the money, the food, the politics, the culture, etc. Still, I enjoyed the series.

[@44macherie]

It's still a fun story without knowing the symbolism, but I do think knowing it adds depth and more meaning to the story. A western civ class wouldn't be needed. I think they already know the basics of the history of Jesus and what he means to Christians (based on other videos I have seen of them). They could have simply been informed that Aslan was the "Jesus" of that world and that would have been enough. I do think it would have enhanced their enjoyment knowing this added information. The same way I would appreciate a foreign movie even more knowing the depth of symbolism that it was about.

[@azuroslazuli6948]

Eh, I'm honestly torn on this one. While I do kinda wish they'd understood the deeper significance of the story to westerners---especially Christians---it was downright fascinating to see the views of someone who has none of that background whatsoever. They didn't even recognize very popular mythical creatures like gryphons. I can't imagine what it must feel like, having experienced those things my entire life. It'd be like being a child again.

[@dione6388]

I get why people wish they'd understand the allegory, but if I can offer my perspective- they didn't need to. As a kid, I read the books & didn't know that it linked to Christianity. But I still caught on to the fact that it was a battle between good and evil, and I think that made it just as impactful for me.

[@Dakarn]

I've always loved the Chronicles of Narnia books. Even knowing that they were written by C.S. Lewis as an allegory to explain the Bible to children. They are all wonderful stories with a great moral foundation behind them. Especially in the final book: "The Last Battle." Aslan tells one of the servants of Tash (an evil deity created by the beliefs of pirates that made their way to Narnia) that every good action he had done in the name of Tash was actually done in service to Aslan. Every action of evil done in Aslan's name was actually done in service of Tash. So, if you spent your entire life doing good acts, no matter whose name it was done under, it was all in service of Aslan. It's a good reminder that, even for the non-religious or non-believers, one should always strive to be a good person.

These three gentlemen are my favorite reviewers on this channel.

[@stephenulmer3781]

Yay! Have loved the Chronicles of Narnia Series since jr. High school in 1979 ☺

[@joannaholden943]

Please tell me they'll be watching the next two movies! I think they'd really enjoy them. ❤

[@DogwafflDan]

Dawn Treader is one of my favorite films.

[@elenoryn4700]

Went on the channel impatiently waiting for the third Lotr movie. Found them reacting to Narnia instead. I am not disappointed. And what a great song by Babu at the end - it fitted the movie very well.

[@cortneyfletcher]

I love their aspect on movies how excited they get

[@HiThereLove16]

I absolutely loved watching this reaction! I love these books and films, and it makes me so happy to see them enjoyed in such depth. Thank you.

@ 3:04 - "taikhana" (Hindi) taikhana, more commonly written as "tahkhana", would be translated as "underground room", "cellar" or "basement"

The guys might like to know that the actor who provided to voice of Aslan is Liam Neeson, the same actor who played Qui-Gon Jinn in 'Star Wars: The Phantom Menace', which they have already seen. They might also like to know that the author of the original books, C.S. Lewis, was the one who determined that Aslan should be a lion. They have seen several videos about World War II, but I don't know if they know about the Blitz, in which London, Coventry, and other large towns were bombed by the Luftwaffe, resulting in great damage and loss of life. For this reason, many children were sent to the countryside, where they would be safer. People reading the books for the first twenty or so years of publication would have been well aware of that. By the time this film came out, that was a distant memory, so the opening bombing raid scene was added to remind younger viewers of the circumstances. Trivia: The producers carried the girl playing Lucy to the set blindfolded, so all her reactions to the snow and all are genuine. Also, she had never seen the actor playing Mr. Tumnus in his make-up before, so her initial fright was real, too. The actor's goat legs, by the way, were done in CGI. The same technique was used for the talking animals and the other half-man/half-animal creatures, just as they were the 'Jurassic Park' and 'Jungle Book'. Most of these fanciful creatures are from mythology. Now, when will they have the chance to finish 'Lord of the Rings'? I also hope they are able to see the next two films in the Narnia series. PLEASE get Ruby back as often as you can. I'd love to see her reactions to these films.

Most likely the reason C.S Lewis chose Aslan to be a lion was because Jesus's name is the Lion of Judah, so it would make sense since scripture speaks also how amazing a lion os and how they don't back down.

[@patriciagerresheim2500]

@@Chartail1 Also, 'aslan' means 'lion' in Turkish.

I loved this reaction! Having people from different ages, backgrounds and cultures makes it more interesting to watch... To me their insight was fascinating and I enjoyed how they were surprised by all new creatures appearing on screen. I even though the series were never finished, I still hope you react to the other two movies 😊 I want to hear that song at the end too, can I find it online?

[@splatninja9447]

Hey now lol, I appreciate that my country is known for combat strength, but we weren't the ones carpeting England. 😂 God I love these videos. Their reactions have a purity I'm unaccustomed to.

[@narnia1233]

I'm so glad they loved it. This series was read to me as a child. And still is my favorite. I hope they get to see Prince Caspian as well.

[@gerbendekker3273]

The most hilarious part of this reaction is watching them process all these things that are second nature to me and people like me, but which are completely and utterly strange to them. The beaver being called weird looking animal, rat, and mouse, combined with the puzzled looks when it´s actually called by its name for several minutes straight cracked me up, as well as their initial reaction to Tumnus.

[@MrSmithla]

Please teach Babu the expression “All the feels!” It describes a situation where a person witnessing a series of events feels a broad range of emotions. If a movie makes you feel “all the feels,” it is a compliment to the whole story that the movie can take you on an emotional journey. It’s a GOOD thing!

[@Yakerina]

I don't know when each movie is watched, but they would probably get a kick out of knowig Aslan is voiced by Liam Neeson, who played Schindler.

[@SourcesWonderWoman]

GOOD MOVIE .. . Always a pleasure to see you all are well, kindly brothers .
