We never had a Narnia thread? WTF?
Anyway I liked these books, but I haven't read them in a while. My favourites were The Horse and His Boy and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.

Well, I hated the new movie. Stupid, underdeveloped, lame, not needed romance.
Love the books.

Me too, but the christian undertones went RIGHT over my head.

Despite actually being Christian, when I first read them I had no idea they were supposed to be an allegory. Someone had to point it out to me. :$
My dad took my brother and sister to see the movie today. I decided not to go.

I didn't really like some of the books....strangely felt boring.
But the first movie was really good.

I liked it. I really liked the one horse, was Bree his name? It was a nice change because it had less to do with the storyline and characters of the other books.

What?!
Yes, it was
different
, but then if it didn't break from the original four, it would have exhausted the use of Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy.

There was no reason for it to exist; the story was pretty much completely separate from all the other books (and it was awful).

It was a spinoff.

Spinoffs shouldn't be an official part of the series they span off though.

Um, I think the point of it was to establish Calormen or whatever it's called, because it's important in the last book, if I remember correctly.

They went to Calormen in VotD didn't they? That was enough to establish it.
