Chronicles of Narnia

Seeing as these novels seem quite well read and well loved around here, and the movies that are being made (saw a preview for the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, due in December...looks incredible.)

Perhaps a forum or sub forum would be prudent...just a suggestion...I have a feeling that it may be up for a lot more discussion as the films continue coming (as they are supposed to)

Well, I'm not sure that it's worth making a forum for. Of course, that would be Ben's call, but I would think that the forum would go slow to dead after the movie mania died down. I mean, we have a Harry Potter forum, and it really isn't that active. Just my two cents.

I think the thread on this might be sufficient, but if there are a lot of threads on the movies/books maybe Ben would want to make another thread.

And the Harry Potter forum is perfectly active. More because of the books than the movies IMO.

Just my $0.02.

The Harry Potter forum is active - about as much as the other non-GM ones - and it will certainly pick up again in July when the next book comes out.

I think a forum would be a great idea (maybe for CS Lewis in general rather than just Narnia). We have lots of fans here, and it would mean we could divide up all the different topics which arise without trying to cram them all into one thread... but it's not up to me

I suppose...but they ARE planning on doing all seven as films.
The C.S. Lewis forum WOULD make more sense as well.

That'd be the way to go. I'm surprised there isnt more talk of Narnia already. I think it's because we Tolkienites are also Lewisians, but more Tolkien-oriented.

Well yes, but those werent enough to generate a forum were they
Of course that wonderful thread for the ring musical isnt the most hot spot on entmoot, but I still love it.

What about voting on it? I'll start a thread in GM...
