I paused and said, "you know the title of this is the lion WITCH and wardrobe?" there is a witch in this movie, they go to an imaginary land where Lions and animals talk - so why isnt this movie demonic either since it uses the exact same tools? She really didnt know what to say - but I knew what she was attempting to try and sell christianity in a kids story vs. potter which doesnt support any religious values.
You are aware that Disney did actively market The Chronicles of Narnia to the churches. They sent out press kits, spokesmen and so on. Very much relating the story to that of christianity. In an attempt to cash in on what hollywood refers to as the "passion dollars".
