"'Narnia' faithful to book says director"

That's too bad considering the books are inane tripe.

If they are inane tripe, then why do so many people love them?

I'm not talking about stupid people. I'm talking about people with high IQs including my family.

Wow, breaking news on the literary fore front. And how, pray tell, did these books get such a rating, and what do YOU prefer as a childrens series.

The books are wonderful. Lewis was a master and shows what potential the most diligent atheist has when they stop denying themselves by denying God.

Is that supposed to be a joke? Or are you just a terribly miserable person?

Not inane tripe at all. They are very well crafted books.

I read them when I was but a small thing, back in the day, and found myself rooting for the witch.

I also wanted all those namby-pamby kids to get eaten by the lion. When it became evident that Aslan would let me down in that regard, I was cheesed.

Don't like 'em?

Why not? Can you be a bit more specific than "inane tripe". That's hardly a fair criticism.

(I'm fond of the books and first read them in childhood. But they are good solid work in my opinion. I'd like to hear the reasons for your position.)
