Hi astral_girl :)
I've still not seen this yet, but my son has & is very into it. I'm hopefully gonna go see it soon & have recently started reading the books to him... I'm sure there is lots of symbology in it, but I like the idea of revealing the multidimensional side of things with the nature sprites etc. I think it's important that kids are made aware of that aspect of our world. I personally want to enourage that for him before the school system tries to erase the reality of it with their programming.
If you haven't already seen it, there's another thread that deano started on it here (http://www.davidicke.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22769).

My Mum doesn't let me watch stuff like that, although she did pay for me and Brick to go and see Vantage point.
