crispy Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 I read the series when I was younger, and was hoping that Disney would do the books justice, and it looks as if they did There is not really a question that the Chronicles of Narnia are set for a younger audience than Lord of the Rings, but both Tolkien and C.S. Lewis were friends, and talked and met regularly, and best of all They hated each others books, Tolkien REALLY disliked the Allegorical style of the Narnia books Anyway, most of you know that the early reviews are in, and they look pretty good, but I found this trailer, and am now pretty excited to see the finished product WARNING, THERE IS ALOT OF SPOILERS IN THIS TRAILER, IF YOU WANT TO BE SUPRISED BY THE MOVIE, YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN'T CLICK ON THIS The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe 9 Minute Trailer
Teddymonster Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 Yeah, I read the series when I was younger and even got lead role as Aslan in my 6th production of the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. As the books are supposed to be for a younger audience, I would say that they are not an easy series to read. There is a lot of literary devices that most children would not be able to follow. Pick up a copy of the series and you'll see what I mean.
DATman Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 ^^tolkein wrote in the same style, and he was the one who helped CS Lewis find his afith again. Let's not forget the whole Sacrifice theme in both series'

coasterfreak101 Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Screw trailers, you gotta go see the whole thing I agree. OMG :shock: Someone actually agreed with me There's something I don't get every day! Anyways, yeah, go see the movie, it is so worth the money (especially for Narnia!!!)
Damien666 Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Yes, see the whole thing! It is very well done and very faithful to the book. I enjoyed it a lot!
buttonman700 Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Just came hoe fome seeing it... WOW. We're going to see it again real soon!
coasterfreak101 Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Yeah, we are planning to go see it again over Christmas Break YAY
SFOGdude25 Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 I saw the movie last night. It's literally the BEST DISNEY MOVIE THEY HAVE MADE YET!! You guys really need to see it!
Robbie Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 I didnt wanna go and see it today, and didnt plan to but got a call from a friend( ) and decided to go. It ended up a really fantastic movie and it had a few good twists.
crispy Posted December 11, 2005 Author Posted December 11, 2005 WOW, well, good to hear the movie is actually good, we are going to go see it, but not this weekend
socalMAN123 Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I saw it last Thursday in a sneak preview, and boy can I say it was amazing! The movie was very true to the book, only adding a couple of things here and there. Brent "seeing it for a second time" Shenton 8)
coasterguy618 Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 I read all 7 books in the series, and there is only 7, so how can there be a ninth movie? BTW, I heard the movie was nothing like the Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe. My friends said some of it wasn't even in the book.
crispy Posted December 13, 2005 Author Posted December 13, 2005 Its very difficult to follow any book exactly when turning into a movie, but From what I have heard, it is VERY faithful to the book, much more so than even the Harry Potter movies
