I can’t wait to see the The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe!!!

Don’t let the number ordering on the books fool you, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe is the first one in the Chronicles of Narnia series. They renumbered them a few years ago and made a book written later,The Magician’s Nephew, be the first one because it chronologically took place first. I still think they need to be read in the original order. If you haven’t read the series be sure to read it, I’ve mentioned Narnia many times before.


I think they should be read in the original order for the same reason I think Star Wars should be watched 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3 – Who cares about the decline of Anakin Skywalker if you don’t know who he’s going to grow up to be? The story of R2 and 3PO isn’t important if you don’t know what they will do someday if you haven’t seen A New Hope (#4), they’re just some silly robots. Episodes 1-3 are the sequel to the story they just take place chronlogically first. Who cares about the story of the lamp post in Narnia if you’ve never had time to wonder about it? Obviously the movie folks feel the same way since they choose to start with The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.

The movie for The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe looks incredible! The effects look great, I get chills every time I see the preview. I hope it lives up to my expectations…

  1. Wait, they renumbered them? That just doesn’t seem right. Why not write a book about Harry Potter’s origins and renumber them while we’re at it. They should just keep the original numbering system and throw this in the canon with a tagline like “the early stories” or some such.

  2. I haven’t read the original books, but the movie looks stunning!

    I’m not sure I’m willing to risk a frisking and a search at my local theater to watch it, though.

  3. intresting ,a new ruse
