" ": THE SILVER CHAIR

" ": THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER

each dvd is about 168 minutes long...can any english people tell me how good
they are ? i'll watch them on tuesday since i have off from both of my jobs.

I loved them

When I was wee

In days you could trust

The BBC

i rented those versions from netflix a while back...they're okay. if you don't expect much from them, you might find them kind of charming and fun. i'm all geeked out for the big screen disney version this christmas, though!

can't wait for the new one!!!!

i saw them and pick them up just to see how different they'll b and get the

jump ahead of almost everybody else,

The BBC movies are wonderful!

anxiety loves these, ask him! he is Aslan's no.1 fan

nothing beats the old cartoon from 1979 (i was so innocent and easy to please back then )

i cried when i thought the goblins killed the lion..it was so humiliating how they cut his mane off lil fuckers

i still pull it out every few years to look at the crappy animation

When Harry Potter came out and everybody thought it was so damn inventive I always felt like it was a bit of a rip-off of the Narnia Chronicles. And they, in turn, ripped off all kinds of other British fairy tales that I'd read. Admittedly successfully so, but JK Rowling was just tapping into that whole tradition, in my opinion.

I liked the BBC version when it first aired in 1988 (or whatever year it was). I watched it again last year and wasn't so taken by it. I am, however, very excited about this new version. It's been a while since I've read the books, so I'm making sure I read them again before their December release. This is a must-see for me in an already crowded movie season.

Frodo..of the nine fingers..."

yup

I liked the animated version of Lord of the Rings better than the new films, it was much shorter. First video I ever saw.

I'm all about Gormenghast.

it's true! last winter i read all the books from beginning to end, and even studied 'em a bit, too.

charlottegelin said:

I like the animated films, and I do like the Jackson films as well. Personally, I don't think they're worthy of the praise heaped on them, but that's just me.

I currently have an Enid Blyton flash back...

well, i finally watch the bbc dvd of narnia. they were ok. the landscape look so real. it didnt look like if they were in a studio. the cartoons could have been better. the lion just look too real.

ok the american version is 12-9-2005. alott of digital effects will be in there , so i might enjoy that alot better,

???should i watch the other stories, dvd, or wait until this version comes out.

I can't wait to see the new one.....
