Okay, I admit it. I am a squishy marshmellow, all soft and pathetic. Yet another movie has made me cry. Chronicals of Narnia; Prince Caspian to be exact.
The reason why? Peter and Susan don't get to return to Narnia, and Lucy had to say goodbye to Aslan. :( Sad sad sad parts! And to top it all off, when they were leaving, to go through the hole in the tree to return to London, this song was playing!
Lyrics:
It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word
And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry
I'll come back
When you call me
No need to say goodbye
Just because everything's changing
Doesn't mean it's never
Been this way before
All you can do is try to know
Who your friends are
As you head off to the war
Pick a star on the dark horizon
And follow the light
You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye
You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye
Now we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and now one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget
Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
'Til they're before your eyes
You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye
You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye

The Call by Regina Spektor. It made me cry! As such, it is now in my playlist. XD I think it's a lovely, wonderful song ...still made me cry though. *sniffles*
Anyways! Review of Prince Caspian.
It was good. I for one, while I have read the entirety of the Chronicals of Narnia, couldn't really get into them. I didn't really understand the hype, therefore, for me, the movies are better than the books. It's a year later, after the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, when Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy had returned to London.
Prince Caspian's uncles wife births a son, lo and behold, Uncle...thingy, I forget his name, plans to have Caspian the tenth assassinated. The old tutor, I forget his name too, helps Caspian escape into the woods and voila! The Narnians that were supposed to be extinct, aren't quite that wiped out, and uncle thingy's guards, the telmorians are beaten up by a dwarf and before another biffs caspian over the head he blows this ivory horn and poof! (not quite, but you get the idea) Susan, Peter, Edmund and Lucy are pulled back into Narnia. A thousand years after they left it, or something along those lines.
Ta da, they meet up with caspian and the narnians, fight an epic battle while not believing Lucy about seeing Aslan, then rely on Lucy FINDING Aslan to help them kick some badguy ass.
Suffice to say it works, the Narnians get back their kindom with Caspian as king, but P, L, S, E have to go back to London. :( It's all sad, Peter gives Caspian his sword.
And then when they're all saying goodbye, be good, stay happy, you've learnt all you can and so on, the call starts playing and I start crying. Lucy didn't even get to hug Aslan goodbye! :( So yes, it made me cry.
Another that I watched, All Dogs Go to Heaven, made me cry at the end too. Even though it was a happy ending, kinda. Sorta. Charlie got to go back to heaven, and Anne-Marie got a family but still.... it made me cry. :( I am such a marshmellow! *sigh* good movie though, even though it was a kids cartoon movie. :) I recommend it for watchings.

Yes, you are a squishy marshmellow. Although, you're not the only one who has a few songs in their playlist only because they were beautiful songs they heard somewhere, as much as I would like not to admit.
Maybe I'm a squishy marshmellow, too?
A marshmallow indeed my friend.
I personally didn't like the movie at all, mainly because Peter was a self-righteous, you-can-kiss-my-High-King-nether-region ass-hat.
I do admit it was terribly sad, though I'll always prefer the books (read them twice).
I miss you.
