They made the mistake of trying to modernize the 1979 animated production of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. The Pevensies were made to look like they came from 1970’s, when the production was made.

I've never watched that version in full, but I've seen a few clips, and other than the distinctly 1970s turtle-neck jumpers and hairstyles, the dialogue and narrative all seem to be pretty book accurate from what I could tell.

I was wondering therefore if you could expand on some of the mistakes in that version that resulted from the change in time period, and how it affects the story, as I feel that could be a really interesting point of evidence for the debate
