Horses are amazing. Especially talking ones.
Emily H
Totally!!!! The Horse and His Boy used to be my favorite Narnia book…I loved that part when he was talking to Bree and wishing he could talk :P
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
"But I can." LOL
Emily H
=D !!! I want to scream when I read that part… It's like "Oh, how COOL is that!???" =D
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
I like the part where Hwin blurts out how tired she is when they're swimming the inlet and Aravis gets really mad.
"Hold your tongue, Hwin, and don't be a fool!"
Emily H
Yeah. =D That would just be so neat to have a horse that talked.
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
Wouldn't it, though? Wow…a friend that is a horse…that's like the best of both worlds!
Emily H
I know!!!
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
One-way ticket to Narnia, please! I probably wouldn't wish myself back…except for that none of my friends would be there…about ten one-way tickets to Narnia, please!
Emily H
That would be so awesome! sighs
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
wishful, happy sigh Yeah… (dreamy look as I gaze at my Narnia computer desktop picture and Narnia avatar)
Emily H
lol =D
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
… Narnia is so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My brother is asking why you only have one tooth in your avatar, and do you really have glasses?
Emily H
Lol, my brother says it's because I crashed into something and knocked all my other teeth out :P But I seriously do have all my teeth =D And I do have glasses (which I hate, btw, but when I have to sit 2 feet away from the tv to be able to tell which of Joseph's brother's is talking…..yeah:P:). They're rectangular kind of like those, but their purple :P
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
Mike's are rectangular, too, but they're black. He says I look ugly in mine (they're something of a tortoiseshell-brown ovalish-shape), but I think he's kidding me.
Emily H
Those sound pretty! Yeah, I think he probably is kidding :)
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
He probably is. Considering it's Mike. LOL
Emily H
Haha! :D Are you nearsighted or farsighted?
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
Nearsighted. So I have to take off my glasses when I'm reading or my eyesight gets worse. I can't read when I have contacts in or I could hurt my eyes. :-(
Are you nearsighted or farsighted?
Emily H
Nearsighted too :( I can't stand reading with glasses on. Sometimes I kind of have to if I'm copying from something far away though. It's so annoying.
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
Yeah. :-( Supposedly if you hold the book a little out of your comfort zone (with your glasses off, of course), it makes your eyes stornger if you're nearsighted. I've not tried this, but logically it should work.
Emily H
If you think about it logically. (sorry:P:) That's interesting…my comfort zone is like an inch and a half away. :P
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
…it's impossible!
…we must assume that she is telling the truth!
…we're not even taking them out of the wardrobe!
LOL
Mine is about 8 inches.
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
…Okay. Now it's really quiet in here…
"We do seem to be somewhere," said Digory. …
"But why's it so dark?" [said Polly.] …
"Prehaps this is Charn," said Digory. "Only we've got back in the middle of the night."
"This is not Charn," came the Witch's voice. "This is an empty world. This is Nothing."
And really it was uncommonly like Nothing. …

I got both PC and VODT for my birthday, so now we have all 3 movies!!!!! (dances around from happiness)
I also got Narnia Stratego (the board game). The good guys' team is so hard to win with! I haven't won once, because I always play with the good guys, and I've played something like a dozen times. The nice thing is that I always get first dibs on the good guys because my brothers like the bad guys (because they're easier to win with). And I always, always choose the good guys.
And I finally got around to cartoonizing (??) the Narnia characters. I did the Pevensies and Caspian from PC. LOL They look pretty funny.
Dani(elle)
Lol :) I watched VODT the other day for the first time. It was pretty good. :)
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
Good for you! Have you read the book?
Dani(elle)
I've never been Interested enough to read the book but when I was little we would listen to the audio tapes. :)
BTW- idk why everyone was complaining about Caspian's beard cause he looks just as good if not better. :P lol JK JK
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
Aha. Just curious: why do you think they added the green mist?
Oh, I didn't know there was a complaint! I didn't mind it. I liked him in VODT, and I liked him in PC (although I do wish he'd comb his hair!!).
Dani(elle)
Lol yeah maybe just the girls I know… :) lol
I think They added it to make the plot more action packed and exciting. Why do u think they added it?
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
I think it's probably because they thought the story would be boring without a bad guy.
Dani(elle)
That's true too. Nightmare island was kinda like a bad guy in the book but it didn't make much sense I liked that they built a plot off of that it made it more interesting. :)
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
Yeah, the only real battle in the book was the sea serpent battle. There wasn't any battle at Narrowhaven (or, as my brothers and I call it, the handcuff battle).
Dani(elle)
Lol yeah that parts was pretty cool. :)
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
Almost all of my favorite scenes from all 3 movies are the battles:
LWW
Crossing the river
The first battle of Beruna
PC
The night raid
The battle inside Aslan's How
The duel
VODT
The handcuff battle/battle at Narrowhaven
The Sea Serpent battle
As Andrew Adamson (the director for the first 2 movies) mentioned in the LWW commentary, "It's because you get to play with swords!!"
BibleBeeJunior14 (~*Lady Ariana*~)
the sea serpent battle is so creepy!!! :O
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
I know! The thing that creeped me out most about the serpent was actually not its teeth or its eyes or its "legs", but the fact that it was covered so thickly in slime that even though it had just come out of the water, it could catch on fire! Ewww!
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
A few random questions: How many people on here are on The Lion's Call? Is signing up for it free? Do you have to have an email address? (I'm hoping to join it but I had a few questions first.)
And I have to say that SBG forgot someone when he mentioned who the two main people on this thread would be…but then again, that was before I was a Narnian.
SavedByGrace
:D Yeah, sorry about that. :P
Dani(elle)
Did anyon else notice that the producers/makers of the third movie didn't respect the book?
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
I did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, they changed just a few things, huh? LOL Where did the green mist come from??????????????????????????????? And…er…I don't mean to bother you guys, Caspian and Edmund, but there are seven lords you might want to rescue, but if it's too much of a bother and it gets in the way of your schedule of looking for their swords instead…
Dani(elle)
I feel like that was the main difference between the third and the other two. It wasn't even that they changed stuff.. They just didn't seem to respect the book…
Random Narnian Warrior (Tarva/Abi)
Yeah, and in PC I didn't mind the Peter vs. Caspian stuff as much as you'd expect (I mean, I wish they'd left it out and all, but it was tolerable) but in VODT, what's with the power struggle between Caspian and Edmund!?!? They can't do that to my favorite character!!! (Er, "favorite" besides Aslan, and tied with Reepicheep, that is…)
Sir Walter (Jimmy)
IT IS OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL!!! PRODUCTION FOR "THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE SILVER CHAIR" HAS BEGuN. IT WILL BE MADE BY THE MIKE GORDAN COMPANY. :)
HUZZAH!!!!!
SavedByGrace
jawdrop AWESOME!!
Dani(elle)
Sounds awesome, but how do u know this??
Emily H
Wow! That's really cool!!!!
BREAKING NEWS! It's...ah...nobody important. nevermind.
I'm the one directing the film, he asked me, I told him. BUT I TOLD HIM NOT TO TELL ANYBODY!
Sir Walter (Jimmy)
It was announced on the morning of October 1st. It is all over the news. I think that it was even Mr. Doug Gresham who made the announcement. Anyway, I am pretty sure that this is no rumor. They already have named the producer and, I think, the director.
Dani(elle)
SWEET!
