Yeah... that's why I later called it 'Warderobe'. :)
I haven't seen them in several years so I don't remember exactly, but I thought they were good... and about as accurate to the books as you could really hope for. That is not perfect but close... but they had time -- each of the 3 films was three hours long, so Warderobe and Silver Chair were more intact... since Dawn Treader and Prince Caspian were combined they had less (especially Voyage of the Dawn Treader, some of their stops were cut out), but still, it's as much as you can hope for from a film adaptation of a book, content-wise...
Quality? I liked them quite a bit, when I first saw them when I was younger (which is of course the age group they were made for). Don't know exactly what I would think of them now as I haven't seen them recently, but my memories are good. :) We do own them though so I could rewatch them if I wanted...
I'm not quite sure what you mean by this.
Quote:I remember seeing some snippets of those shows... Some of it was done well but on the whole I just didn't like the style. I'm not bashing production values, but what little I saw gave me this feeling of every single instance being a casual dinner conversation seperate from everything else going on in the world, even if it's supposed to be happening midbattle.
