Line 7:
* [[Epileptic Trees]]: One such theory recently turned out to be true! A researcher found a thematic link between the seven books and the seven major planets (see Lewis' other best-known work, the Space Trilogy).
* [[Esoteric Happy Ending]]: "The Last Battle". {{spoiler|The children will live in Narnia forever, which is what they always wanted (Narnia being Heaven), but it's still jarring to realize that, in our world, they're all dead}}.
* [[
* [[Real Women Never Wear Dresses]]: Again, Lewis's critics accuse him of pulling this in his treatment of [[Team Mom|Susan]] compared to the other female characters.
* [[Tear Jerker]]: Yes, it's all very wonderful for Peter, Edmund, Lucy, etc. that they get to go to heaven with Aslan and live forever in paradise. But Susan (ignoring any discussions on ''why'') has just had her ''entire family, including her parents'', killed in a horrific accident. May also double as [[Fridge Horror]].
Line 33:
** The White Witch. Wrapping Edmund in her fur with her, being all close, asking Edmund to come to her castle, and to bring his siblings too. Jeez lady, and to only up the creepiness with Edmund, in the third movie, constantly whispering almost seductively, "Edmund, I can make you my King... and much more."
*** Though Edmund might've consented to a powerful, [[Hot Witch]] fawning over him. And this might have been partly why he joined her forces.
* [[What an Idiot!]]: The assault on the castle in ''Prince Caspian'' (which did ''not'' happen in the book) gave huge helpings of this to Peter. To be fair, everyone from Caspian to ''[[The Heart|Lucy]]'' calls him out on it. Caspian also deserves a share of this one because it was ''his'' fault in the first place that they lost the element of surprise; he went into the castle with his own agenda and despite the obvious results of him changing the plan in the middle of a [[Stealth
** Granted Maugrim didn't think that Peter had it in him to kill, but that doesn't mean that jumping directly onto Peter's sword was a smart move.
* [[What Do You Mean It's for Kids?]]: ''Prince Caspian'' was allegedly a children's movie and rated as PG. But despite that ''Prince Caspian'' is probably the highest-bodycount, generally-dark movie to be given a PG rating since ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'' spurred the creation of PG-13.
