Narnia movies

Here you can discuss The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and Prince Caspian to your hearts' content. Which do you like more? Why do you like that one? Are you looking forward to the third movie?

I preferred the new movie of LWW to PC, and I am eagerly anticipating the third installment!

Why do you prefer PC to LWW? It was quite different from the book! It had a few plot elements that I think would have been better left out.

In my opinion it was too bad that PC didn't follow the book very well, but I didn't really mind so I greatly enjoyed the movie!

In and of itself, PC was excellent. As a movie that was trying to emulate a book... not so excellent. Did you hear that Disney is not going to help Walden Media produce the rest of them? I read it somewhere. It's sad

LWW was true to the book and wasn't bad or anything... but it definitely to me came off as more of a kids movie (and I guess it is a kids book, so...)... but Prince Caspian I enjoyed quite a bit more. It just had a lot more serious tone and I enjoyed it a ton.

I realise it was not true to the book, and I know it can be frustrating, but it has been so many years since I have read the series that I didn't really notice anything. Though I hear something about a kiss...

PC was way too dark and serious for me. I did like the night raid, though! I am big into subterfuge, espionage, and infiltration of fortresses... mwahaha... I prefer the lighter-hearted LWW overall, though. I guess I'm a literary purist-- one who prefers the movies to be almost exactly like the books. (Although that probably isn't the definition of literary purist... hm...)

I am looking forward to someday viewing Voyage of the Dawn Treader!

I liked the Lion, THe Witch, and the Wardrobe much much better than Prince Caspian. They kinda... messed up with PC.

The movies, even though they follow the books, as LWW does closely, they are a far cry from the books. The books were boring to read. The movies were REALLY exciting to watch. I loved both, and I can't wait for the next one!

I'm sure you guys heard about Disney dropping VOTD... what are your thoughts?

I just saw that, thanks!

in PC the book Susan and Caspian DON'T FALL IN LOVE! that made me mad when they did in the movie. In the book they also don't attack Caspian 1-9's castle.
