I do. ;)

I read The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe yesterday and it gave me nightmares. ROFL. XD

[quote="Schindler"]Amhh... sure.

Now, about the thread, I've never read them because I didn't like the movies. I think Narnia has no sense nor holds a good argument, Lewis just kinda wrote whatever came to his mind without giving good enough reasons for them to happen, and I can't help but compare the Narnia books with The Lord of the Rings, and I think the latter is a masterpiece, so yeah...
Maybe, if the story makes sense in the rest of the movies, I'll just take it all back and read the books, but I REALLY doubt it.[/quote]

That's because you haven't read the Magician's Nephew. It explains everything that happened in the movies and how Narnia was created.

I actually read that one =)

It was pretty good, the christian references were a lot more explicit in it than in the two movies so far, though the second movie had a fair amount of that too

I have the mega-book that has all the Narnia books in the order they're meant to be read. but I only got so far on them before the movie came out, and then I had more motivation to read Warriors so I still haven't finished the books. but I'm on the one that...wait, I forgot the title. I think it had something to do with a horse and a prince :hmm: I can't see it at the moment since I'm at school lol.

''Prince Caspian'' you mean?

@Simba: You mean ''The Horse and His Boy''.

''The Horse and His Boy'' and ''The Silver Chair'' were my least favorite books of the series. I liked the books with the Pevensies most.

They're ok. I've only read the first 2 chronologically and I liked lion, Witch, and Wardrobe much better than Magician's Nephew. I need to read the rest of them.
I am also a big fan of: Phantom of the Opera, High School Musical, Harry Potter, Disney in general, Days of Our Lives, musicals in general, Dr. Seuss in general and the Grinch.

I loved the ones I have read, which are the first four I think in chronological order. The Magician's Nephew was my favorite, it's a shame they're not making the movie now... It was going to be the next one made.

I'm almost finished reading the whole Chronicles of Narnia series, and I'm currently reading The Last Battle. So far, it is starting to get interesting! :)

Overall, I have to say the books are an excellent read! My favorites are The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe, The Magician's Nephew, and The Horse and his Boy. My least favorites were Voyage of the Dawn Treader and The Silver Chair, and I'm somewhat neutral on Prince Caspian.
