What is wrong with her eyes?

Actually, I agree with you there. I would get the board book too because it's another way of telling the same story. That's something of value. It may be essentially the same story, but it would be interesting to see which elements they cut out to make an abridged version.

The Magician's Nephew's Friend: The Polly Plummer Story.

I might want a hardcover and a paperback edition, but I don't know if I can bring myself to keep buying a set over and over again just for some slight differences.

Well, of course there are plenty of fanfics. But fanfics are real only fun if you can discuss them too along with the series and I usually don't find that very often.

Is it true that Susan basically just disappears altogether later? Is there any more information about her after that? Are there companion Narnia stories like there are for Lord of the Rings and ASOUE?

That's why I favor movie adaptations filming stuff that wasn't even in the book.

Do you think one should read the books first or watch the adaptations? I watched the LWW movie first but I read the book second.

Don't think I ever posted here. Let me introduce myself so people can get to know me better. My name is Bianca.

UPDATE (11 years later): James McAvoy has signed on for a Sandman film.

I remember vividly Tumnus awakening to the exact same pose he was in as a statue. I don't recall that when I read the book. Perhaps it was just the mere fact that the movie visualized it for me.

Actually that raises a different question. It appears as though Peter had only just started looking. Lucy claims to have been gone for hours. How much do we know about the exchange rate because this scene has it appear that a few hours in Narnia translates to but one or two minutes in the real...

True looking in each one would have been arduous, but it's not as though Lucy really went that far from the point at which they started. Even when she ran out of the room she almost ran directly in to the others, so all they had to do was look in all of the rooms in the immediate area. Which...

Not sure Lucy would have gone for the reverse psychology gambit, but, then again, it actually worked.

I just don't think anyone else would have chosen to hide in the wardrobe. I mean that wardrobe was the only thing in that room. Dead giveaway.

I think you mean that the other way around. We definitely see way way more people than Tumnus being awakened in the film. There's at least one more significant focus on a centaur.

One thing I liked about the movie version of LWW was the way it depicted Aslan waking up the statues. I may be remembering incorrectly, but the book version, to me, left something to be desired.

Books always win these sorts of discussions, which I guess make sense, but to me the movies are usually just as good almost every time.

Not if it's Edmund.

So in that case I do hope they tweak things a bit as they will be retelling it. What could be cool is what if we changed which one of them goes in to the wardrobe first?
