We managed to sneak in a showing of the new Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. I had meant to reread the book(s) before hand, but never got around to it. I thought the movie was fantastic and would definitely recommend it. I'm going to have to flip through my copy of Companion to Narnia since most of the talked about religious imagery flies right over me.
Last night we had watched BBC's 1990 version of The Silver Chair on DVD to get into the right frame of mind.
