I'm not really into Star Wars, but I think it's pretty cool. I love the Chronicles of Narnia. I read the books and I think they're awesome, so right now I'm going to say Narnia. I wonder what the movies will be like though...

I don't think I can decide....I really became obsessed with Star Wars after RotS, but I've always loved Chronicles of Narnia, and the movie coming out looks GREAT! :) So maybe after I see the CoN movie, I can decide :)

hmm hard to say.

I grew up with Chronicles Of Narnia it has been one of my favorites for a long time. I love how C.S. Lewis describe Narnia. It was so enchanting. Both LOTR and Narnia are based fantasy.

But I would have to say Star Wars is one of my favorites too. It's is explained in such rich detail in the books and there are so many of. They are always action and adventure and as Narnia and LOTR Star Wars has an excellent moral!

I would have to say I like both I can't choose!

Making your final judgement with only a trailer for evidence is a liiittle harsh, don't you think? ;) Honestly, a lot of trailers don't give a good idea of the essence of the movie, so you shouldn't always judge by them.

As for me, I say Narnia all the way, even though I like the Star Wars original trilogy. I'm re-reading all the Chronicles :) I just finished The Silver Chair for the umpteenth time last night.

Kit, they ARE very different, but that doesn't prevent one from being better than the other :p I still maintain that the Narnia trailer was the best part of going to see RotS on the big screen.

well the cruel truth is that I am a horrible person :-D No just that.... for what I got from the trailer just didn`t suit me at all and so I am not going to watch it ever (well if you pay me I might consider... :-D )

Ehm... *is still trying to figure out what these two movies have in common* I don't really see what the comparison, but I expect that I will like Narnia far more than Star Wars. The Narnia books were my absolute favorites when I was younger, and I still love them. I'm an old school SW fan, but I don't like the newer ones very much... Narnia! I'm so excited for this movie. *goes to watch trailer for the zillionth time*

They really aren't comparable...I love them both.
Star Wars has more plot to it, and is one continuing story.
Narnia is a series of short stories.

u can't make a judgement of a movie by it's trailer! - i've never seen star wars and i dont intend to - so i'm basing my judgement on the fact that i've seen one and not the other. I say narnia!!

They are both wonderful movies. It is so hard 2 decide.... Overall, I can't choose which is better. Because I found Narnia to be a better movie over the first few Star Wars. But Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith were also very well made and I think they might have been better then Narnia.... I'm not sure....
I give them a tie.
They are both emotionally compelling and very exciting.

Do I really need to tell you which I like more? :D

Narnia of course, and I was fan for about 2 years before the movie came out. I've seen the movie 10 times..(and counting) and read the series 8 times (and counting) and I hate star wars..

I'd say Star Wars. I like Narnia but for some reason there's something about the movie that annoys me and makes me not want to watch, even though I enjoy watching it when I do....it's complicated lol.

Hmmm, I gotta say Star Wars. Allthough I like both of them, I'm more into Sci-fi than fantansy. [Except for LOTR of course. :teehee:]

I'd say Star Wars or Narnia. It's a tie. Mainly because Narnia appeals to the younger children's generation, and is more fantasy, whereas Star Wars appeals to the adventure people. I like both equally. :-D
