I read them all, and quite frankly... most of them sucked. The first one was the best.

I liked them :) ... but then again it was sooo many years ago. May have to give them another read and see what I think of them now.

Didn't they already make movies for them (crappy ones at that)?

Narnia sucked. Had to read them in school and hated them all. Now if they made a movie of the LOTR trilogy that would kick so much butt...oh wait...they already did:D

The Chronicles of Narnia are kids books... much more so than the Lord of the Rings were meant to be. And their parallels to Christianity are much more blatant.

Oops... swinging this train of thought back to movies...

There were movies made of a bunch of them back in the early 90s, which weren't bad... but I think an updated version could be pretty sweet.

The stories are not nearly as complex as LOTR and without leaving much out they'd still all be way shorter than 3 hours...
