read the books. I've read every single one of them, and they are awesome. They are very easy to read, and extremely interesting. They arent too long either. Go to your nearest book store, and get "The Magicians Nephew". Read it. Then get the rest of the books in chronological order.

And about the movie...isnt there already movies based on these books?

1) I posted that there were going to be Narnia movies, like, a year or two ago.

2) There were already Narnia movies... kind of. They were British TV movies (I think). You can rent them at Blockbuster...

3) Read the books first. Always read the books first.

4) If he hadn't done Mufasa, James Earl Jones would be great as Aslan.

I don't really know much about the Chronicles but what does the fact that he did Mufasa have to do with him being good for Aslan? I mean, why can't he have done both?

Well... Aslan is a lion as well. It would just seem like kind of a rip off. He could do both, but I doubt he'd be cast as him for that reason.

I think there was an adapted television series.

Well, the elementary school I attended had the first book on film...because I remember I loved the movie, and I watched it over and over.

I also watched the first movie on TV a coupel times, only it was a cartoon. I'm not sure if it was an adapted television series or not, I just remember watching the movie.

There's a rumor that Nicole Kidman might be playing the White Witch, Jadis, in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.

Nicole Kidman as the White Witch?

I personally think that Kidman could do verl well as the White Witch. She could get that beautifully evil type thing, I think.

I think she would be an awesome white with too.

I hope this rumor is true. And now that we are seeing rumors of a possible cast, who you you guys like to see play each character? I'm not sure who I want...I'll think about it, and type up a list later.

Well, the only ones who are of real importance in The Lion, etc. are the Pevensie children, the White Witch, and Aslan. Professor Kirke I guess too...

The children will probably be unknowns; I hope so anyway. There are very few child stars I would like to see in this movie...

Like I said, James Earl Jones would be great as Aslan, though I doubt it will happen. Maybe...maybe not...

Nicole Kidman is a good choice for the White Witch...

So...
