Not the elimination of Aslan....

[Rachel Bray]

No, not eliminating Aslan....I'm just worried they'll not 
make him as wonderful, loving, terrifying, and as HUGE as 
he's been in my mind for the last 24 years (I think it's 
been 24 years...hmmm....quick math.....32 minus 24 is...8 
years old....Yep.  24 years.)  I've always had him speaking 
in this delicious deep voice that booms across the land and 
warms you up from the inside.  Kind of like a James Earl 
Jones kind of voice.  I used to have dreams about finding 
Aslan in the woods behind my house and he was just enormous 
and so very scary but at the same time, so very tender and 
gentle and loving.

So that's my fear about Aslan.  Not that they'd cut him out 
(that's impossible) but that he's going to turn into 
something that wasn't what I had in mind at all.

Given, I know they'll have to CGI him.  It's not like any 
director is going to allow his children actors to hang out 
with a full grown lion....I just hope they do him justice.  
I was rather disappointed in Firenze in Harry Potter and 
Scooby Doo doesn't look as good as I thought he would...I 
guess it'll be a wait and see.

Adult Ralphie: Meanwhile, I struggled for exactly the 
right BB gun hint. It had to be firm, but subtle.

Young Ralphie: Flick says he saw some grizzly bears 
near Polaski's candy store!

Adult Ralphie: They looked at me as if I had lobsters 
crawling out of my ears. I could tell I was in imminent 
danger of overplaying my hand.
