Thanks, Sam. I'm looking forward to reading your review.
The controversy, as so many of these kinds of disputes over religious content are, was unwarranted. I think possibly folks were likely protesting the author's atheism rather than the actual content of the film.
In any event, I'm anxious to see what Warners Bros. (now that New Line has been folded into Warners) decides to do about filming the other two books.
