A whole new world

Just got back from watching The Chronic-what?-cles of Narnia, and color me impressed. This is one of the best fantasy films I've seen. Granted there aren't a whole lot of them, but this ranks up there with Lord of the Rings in terms of quality, if not kind. It's somewhat more whimsical, a little more kid-friendly, and part of it takes place in our world, but the story drew me in right off the bat and never lost me. No wonder this movie stole King Kong's crown. They also managed to shoot it in New Zealand and not make it look just like the LotR movies.
