Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian: Out on May 16th

I was that way myself. I did not read Tolkien in Jr. Hi, when all of my friends were doing so. I read him, starting with The Hobbit when I was a young mother. I went from there to C. S. Lewis. Both of them have been around way longer than you realize. BBC even had Narnia.

It's funny I never read either Lord of The Rings or Chronicles of Narnia until my college days...when Lord of the Rings came out in the movies, it inspired me to re-read the books, then of course when the first Narnia came out began re-reading them as well. These are supposedly "kids" books but since my mother was never a reader, she never read stories to me as a kid...looks like I made up for it in my "older" years though...LOL

yes my budget is wanting as well...at about $8.00 a movie ticket that's kind of an extravagance for me...waaahhh..unless by some miracle extra money comes my way between now and the 16th. I saw your answer under the first poster's...I still have the VHS of that BBC Chronicles of Narnia...I love it but funny how some years make a different as the special effects in the newer Narnia is out of this world..instead of a "puppet" Aslan with two people in it, the newer has a CG version that is so life like you think it was a real lion

First of all HAPPY BIRTHDAY And yes that would be a great treat for your birthday...sure wish I could see it..who knows maybe I will if I can quick make a few extra bucks...LOL--movie tickets are about $8.00 here..how much are they around you???

I think it's about the same here - we went to see Forbidden Kingdom last night and for 2 adults and one child it was $22.00 for the tickets - my husband is heading back up north tomorrow, so it was a nice treat for us to get out as a family.

Well unless I can make some extra green stuff and soon I might have to just wait until the DVD comes out....sniffle,..sniffle. I'm multi-tasking as it is writing extra articles..writing articles, checking emails, MyLotting, going here, going there and driving myself dingy..LOL...I lost a lot of time yesterday since I had that bout of carpal tunnel and couldn't type well, now I'm better so trying to make up for lost time
Oh yup though...I'm a real die-hard fantasy nutcase...I'd love to see the new Indiana movie too...think Harrison Ford can still cut it though? He's not exactly as young as he was in the earlier movies--believe it or not I still have an authentic Stetson Indiana Jones hat...hehe

I know what you mean but i hate to keep her from it since she's such a good girl..I'm working extra to get that extra money though...
i sure hope Harrison is as good as before and Shia that plays his son is a good actor too

We saw the previews for the new Indiana Jones movie at the theater last night - I think it is safe to say the Harrison Ford is just as good as he ever was! Ahhhhh, it's so nice that some things don't change that fast!

The last movie I did see was the first Narnia movie in 2005..yeesh, three years ago! sure wish we lived closer by...we could see it together...

Hope you enjoy it then...doesn't look like I'll be able to see it so will wait until it's out on DVD

The first movie was spectacular and it was one of the first movies I had seen in a theatre in ages

Wish I could send you a movie ticket to it, Pye, even more, I wish we could watch it together - oh well...

Well looks like I'll have to wait until it comes out on DVD--too darn expensive to see movies, especially now

You're welcomed..glad you liked it

Glad to see another Narnia fan here.
