The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe!

[Tink78]

Hello

Went to see this last night.
I thought it was really fab.

Anyone seen it / going to see it.

There's lots of snow and action, and a few nice emotional bits.

It comes recommended by me, anyway.

It looks fab ~ I sooo want to see it.

With Christmas just around the corner ~ Think I will have to wait until it comes out on DVD.

Pleased you enjoyed it,it looks like a really great film.
We have a tradition of going to the cinema on christmas eve,around 5pm time it keeps the DD's minds occupied for a few hours
We usually go and see something light hearted and funny,last year we went to see "Christmas With The Kranks",it was so funny,and really put is in the christmas mood.
I think this year it will have to be Narnia.

Looking forward to it too. In the meantime I'm re-reading all of the books, just finished Prince Caspian.

I loved the books as a kid!

I think I'll have to wait for the DVD too

I love the idea of the cinema Christmas Eve Sharon - I'll just have to wait a few years!

I cant wait to see this, when I was a child I loved the BBC sereis on it. DH bought me the book in Orlando for Christmas.

I think it looks great too - and remember the excellent BBC series a few years back. Jonathan Ross didn't think much of it on his TV show the other night - I hate it when "experts" criticise films etc - it's just their opinion after all and everyone likes different things. (I don't watch his show normally but just caught a bit of it as I was channel-hopping. Like his chat show though if he's got interesting guests on). I'm sure it'll be a great film - excerpts I've seen look fantastic.

Every Christmas Eve we used to go to the Cinema and this would have been a perfect film to see this year. I will be one waiting for the DVD too

 

[AlanUK]

For anyone who can't go out and see this at the cinema this Christmas but would like an alternative, the animated version is on at 10:10 on ITV1 on Boxing day

I must have seen this about 20 times growing up as it was my little sisters favourite film. It's a good one for the kids

Just got back from seeing this tonight!

It was an excellent film. I was a huge fan of LW&W when I was young and the film is faithful to the book.

I am glad I only took my 9 year old though, there were some scary bits.

I was just saying over on the Disneyland Paris board, I loved the film. It was *really* loyal to the book and just so magical. I definitely want to see it again!

 

[sharon78]

Sounds Wonderful ...Hurry up Christmas Eve.
Think i would rather watch it from Downtown like Tim

I was thinking about taking DD 4 to watch this as I can't wait to see it, Do you think it would be too scarey for her to watch in the cinema in the dark?

 

[PigSoldier]

I saw it last night, and thought it was wonderful! It took me back to being 6 and watching the BBC series on a Sunday afternoon!

There were a lot of small children in the cinema yesterday, and although most of them took it in their stride, I noticed a few having problems, particularly towards the end.

Cya,
