I have refrained from weighing in to any of the discussions of Pullman's book and movie because, until now, I didn't feel strongly enough about it offer up an opinion. Then, last night, I saw the movie ad. The commercial said, "In the tradition of The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA..." (capitalization mine). How dare they! After Pullman has repeatedly trashed Mr. Lewis and his writing, how much hubris does it take to turn around and use Narnia to tout his movie!
