I don't know about no cartoon adaptation...

but I do remember seeing some sort of ministries on PBS a long time ago when i was little...It was pretty good, as far as I can recall...

I do have the PBS television version of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe... very good series. I also have Silver Chair, and Prince Caspian lying around somewhere too.

The miniseries was good, I'd love to get my hands on that!

Didn't Disney show it too?

~~Turtledude2k3~~ · 12-18-2005, 11:05 PM

*Deathknight* · 12-21-2005, 12:09 PM

Yeah,I believe it was made by BBC... there are vhs of it but DVD I'm not sure. They made 4 of the books into movies though. Prince Caspain was a combination with the next book though which I can't remember the name of.

It was Voyage of the Dawn Trader, which did eventually get its' own title.

Narnia adaptations always skip the first and second books for being too short, the very firsy story was'nt the Lion, the Witch, and Wardrobe, but "The Magicians Nephew", but its' considered little more than an introduction to Narnia and not the long term characters, and "The Horse and His Boys"

Yes.

As I said before, it absolutely rapes the movie.

I purchased it a while ago and It still holds up.

*shrugs* I would get hte DVDs of the ministries if I were allowed to go on amazon and order stuff...

I think the new movie is still a worthwhile viewing. Sure, the acting was slightly chessy at times, and it may nto compare to the older versions, but it is still a decent movie, and I would still suggest that people see it atleast once if only for one thing... Narnia. The way that Narnia looks is absolutely breathtaking.

However LOTR is alot better but Narnia comes close.
