Any BBC Lion Witch Wardrobe fans?

I was on a different forum and someone said that they were Wonder Works films, not BBC. Is BBC a parent company with WW as a subcompany? I do remember the WW logo with the hotair baloon.
 
Hmmmm... if you're thinking of the live action, poorly produced, cardboard baddies one - that was definitely BBC, although WW may have helped in production....... However, there are other versions such as an animated one I've never seen - and I think there's even another one that some peeps on the site have watched.

It says on the back oc my DVD set "1988, 1990 British Broadcasting Corporation all rights reserved. A BBC television production in association with Wonder Works. Distributed under licence from BBC Worldwide America, Inc." Sound like it is the BBC to me :). And it says BBC in square white boxes in the front, back and side of the DVD box.

I've never seen the BBC animated one. I don't think I will like it as much as the BBC acting one. :o

Hey Swanwhite!!! I love em too - ignore those on those site who disagree - they just dont understand the meaning of quality British television! ;)QUOTE]

Hey Waterhogboy,

I'm very curious....I've never seen the BBC versions, and I've heard that there are added scenes that aren't in the books.

If you have the time, it would be great if you (or anyone else reading this thread) added information on the differences between the books and the BBC versions to the complete Narnia database that we're building:

Thanks!

I liked the cast they had for the BBC ones aswell, i enjoyed the Caspian for young and old.
I liked how they did the dwarves and what not but when they did the dryads in LWW( the ladies at Aslans camp) they always made me laugh, and Reepichep they did for the BBC's.
Here is a pic i found, its nice with the cast.
I also found the Lucy they had kinda.....funny lol sorry :p

how is it weird that he looks kind of cute, i thought he was cute in the bbc version, anyway i watched the bbc version before i read the books the books are better but i still think the movie rocks i rent it from the library every so often last time i did was like during the summer
 
Wow, he turned out to be quite the handsome devil. He always was cute though.
 
Well I'll be... Is THAT Richard Dempsey!?!?!?!?!?! *whistles* Dang, he is hott! You got any more of those up your sleeve? :D lol.

He was always my favorite character in the BBC version. Gosh I love those, no matter how cheesy the special effects may be, they're still AMAZING films!
