Morgoth suddenly appears next to the lamp post and plans on crushing Narnia. Aslan is all like "Oh shit I'm lion jesus and gotta stop this bitch". Who wins?

There were no reports of this film with a budget this large indicate that it flopped. Or am I missing something here?
So I recently rewatched The Chronicles of Narnia movies, mostly out of the fact I haven't seen in almost 7 years, just as I was getting into film more. I grew up with the main trilogy so while I had emotional attachments to the films, I really had no idea just how good they were until I rewatched them.
These are some great fantasy films - all three of them have simply stunning visuals, especially the first one, which for 2005 look nothing short of stunning and honestly hold up today. Andrew Adamson, despite having never directed a live action film before, proves to be great behind the camera, especially when it comes to action scenes. Prince Caspian in particular has some truly amazing battle sequences, and I'm surprised how much it got away with on a PG rating - I could have sworn I was watching a PG-13 film at points, mainly in the castle siege. Michael Apted also does a good job on Dawn Treader, but I think it might be my least favourite overall mainly due to it's overly fast pacing. The child acting in these films are always on the better side, with Georgie Henley in particular being the best in all three films.
If you haven't seen the Narnia films in a while, I highly recommend doing it. They hold up extremely well and aren't just kids fare or even family fare - they are genuinely fantastic fantasy that has one of the best worlds in the medium.
First of all, I apologize for the delay in posting. I ran into a problem I never imagined. Given the amount of vitriol I can expect on the public reddit, it has made me shy about posting this at all, but I said I would so I will.
I have been reading the Chronicles of Narnia to my grand niece, as it was a book series that I quite enjoyed as a child. We had just gotten to the end of the fourth book in the series, The Silver Chair, when I came upon a scene that I distinctly remember being in both the novel and the BBC movie which was no longer present in either. This scene pertains to a description of the sun in the sky as being yellow, and is held up as evidence of a larger world that the characters have been made to forget. The way the situation parallels as a fiction to the Mandela Effect and the White/Yellow sun ME made this exchange stand out brilliantly. Even if I never knew about the Mandela Effect, my memory of Barbara Kellerman's scenery chewing acting is sharp and clear.
As I said in my prior post, the last few times I've pointed out an ME to the people around me, it flip-flopped before I could write about it. I decided to try an experiment. I posted that I was going to write about this change in 24 hours (again, sorry for the delay) because I wanted to see if the flip-flop would happen on its own. In other words, if I kept the information to myself, would whatever mechanism or agency (I use the word in its vaguest possible sense) know and be able to repair the "damage"? I knew I'd be ridiculed if a flip-flop happened and I had nothing to show you, but at least it would happen while I was paying attention and I'd KNOW for certain, once and for all.
A flip-flop did happen, but it did not happen in the way I envisioned. I expected an All-Or-Nothing flip-flop. I expected that either the movie and the book would both change back, or they would not. What happened instead is, the book changed back, and the movie is still missing the scene. This leaves me on very shakey ground credibility wise. A ton of people have read the book so there was a good chance there would be many others who would recognize this ME, since numbers matter. How many have seen the BBC movie even once? Whats worse, the skeptics will simply say I'm simply mixing up the book and movie and that will be the end of it. It is a lose/lose situation and I'm about to get lambasted either way.
This post isn't going to be a complete waste however, because the line in the book which was rem
