edenfalling: stained-glass butterfly in a purple frame (butterfly)
This is part 4 of a rambling compare-and-contrast on the BBC miniseries and Disney feature film versions of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, with extensive reference to the book (since the book is my only true canon). As of yet, I have no preference for one filmization over the other, since both have elements that make me happy and elements that annoy me to no end.

jump to some thoughts on Prince Caspian

-----

Deeper Magic:

Interestingly, I think the BBC background music for Susan's and Lucy's approach... )

-----

Battle preparations:

The next several sections -- especially the battle -- take up hardly any time in the book... )

-----

In the Witch's house, part 2:

BBC Aslan flies over some very pretty British scenery... )

-----

The Battle of Beruna (or of a random highland plain, if you believe Disney):

The BBC's battle is a confused melee in constricted quarters... )
