The Lion, the Witch, and Wardrobe

So I went to Narnia this weekend. Not the movie, the place. Just kidding. I liked it but I was a little disappointed. I guess that was because I expected it to be a very moving experience just like the LOTR was. After watching it, I realize that one of main reasons that I enjoyed the books was because of C.S. Lewis' prose. His narration is captivating and you just don't get that in the movie. Lewis was a masterful communicator and his ability to illustrate was powerful. That's what I missed most about the movie. Maybe they should have had a narrator. I don't know. Maybe it's just the curse of Disney. I bet that's it.
