Trivia:
According to the "Narnia" books, Professor Kirke (played by Jim Broadbent) is the elderly Digory Kirke. As a boy, Digory Kirke was the hero of The Magician's Nephew, the Narnia book that takes place chronologically before the events in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. (This explains the Professor's willingness to believe that the Pevensie children have ventured to a magic land.) The Magician's Nephew tells the story of the creation of Narnia, the coming of Jadis, the White Witch, the creation of the lamp post, and the creation of the wardrobe itself. Each design carved into the wardrobe signifies an important event that occurs in The Magician's Nephew.See more »

I went to see the new Narnia movie tonight, and I have to say, I was extremely impressed. The story was touching and powerful, the acting was exceptional, and the special effects were amazing! I was never been into fantasy movies until Lord of the Rings came out, which I thought was great. This movie was also very very good. From the beginning of the movie, I felt swept away into the story. I am rarely excited about new movies, but I was about this one, and it totally exceeded my expectations.
I highly recommend this film. It is based on a kid's book, but it appeals to people from every background and age.
I think we are witnessing the beginning of an awesome epic series! 10 Stars!
