A year ago I speculated on how the Netflix version of The Magician’s Nephew would handle Aslan’s creation of the world through his song. When I came upon this illustration, I realized there was another way to handle it. I call it the “Hakuna Matata” method. It’s used in animated musicals a lot, like The …
