Not Surprising...
...and not so significant.
After finally seeing Kong last week, I don't think this says much about values, Narnia is just A LOT better movie.
I also have to say that I've talked to quite a few people about Narnia, most of them in church, they know Narnia is somehow "Christian" because Lewis wrote it, but frankly, they don't get it. My conclusion? There are those of us that adore the books and we are many, but we are still minority.
In the end making a good movie matters a lot more than good source material, and I think that is the case here.
