I went to see all of those movies! Harry Potter on Thanksgiving, Chronicles of Narnia on Christmas, and King Kong on New Years! I think The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe was the best.

I picked up the DVD on Friday - but we still haven't had a chance to watch it.
My wife didn't see it at the theater with me, so I'm hoping to share it with her soon. She wants to give her approval before our oldest gets to see it (he's 8 in another week or so - she wants to feel confident he won't get bad dreams from it). Our second is 5 - but he got scared when George got in trouble in "Curious George" - so we'll definitely let HIM get a little older.

Yes, it was a great movie; more faithful to the book than LoTR
Though of course the fun part is the nitpicking. First shock- Lucy's golden hair- though theyoung actress was great. Didn't like the Professor- "act like a family" instead of "I suggest everybody mnding their own business"- Disney vs. crusty Oxford Profesor (like Bilbo/Frodo/Sam in "The Fellowship") Beavers- Cockneys?!?!?!- these are rural ,earthy creatures, not sharp-tongued Londoners. Waterfall scene- To the directors (and Peter Jackson)- you have to take liberties to make it into a movie, not a film of a book, but one of the reasons these books are so popular is that their authors are supreme story-tellers- so, adapt, cut, even augment- but don't imagine that you can write beter scenes. Aslan- agree with Rhirrim about James Earl Jones- Liam doesn't have enough thunder. The Witch- didn't like her at first- my vision has jet-black hair, blood-red lips and snow-white skin (I think that is Jadis, after she eats the apple in "The Magicians Nephew") Anyway, this is just picky- an excellent adaptation- I'm going out to get the DVD |

yeah, the twitty professor was really irritating - but he redeemed himself somewhat at the very end bit after the credits - I like how he played that scene (roughly "you can't get back that way - I've tried ...")

I bought the Collectors Edition the week end it came out. I love it. Great movie. It took me three viewing before I saw the ankleslicers. (petty cool but i don't remember them in the books). I have to say the extra stuff is nifty.
Rian, the quote is "You can't get back in that way. You see, I've already tried."

The White Witch aka Tilda is actually arguing that Lewis wrote LWW as an anti-religious book.
See here: http://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2006/may/06050810.html Could you imagine a conversation between her and the anti-Lewis author of HIS DARK MATERIALS? Now, that could be entertainment.

You've got to be kidding. Please tell me you're kidding. She actually believes that??
