Trivia:
Several birds had made nests within the filming studio, and several scenes had to be filmed twice due to the noise these birds were making. One of these bird was filmed using the green screen as the bird who leads the children from Tumnus's house to the Beavers. moreGoofs:
Errors in geography: At the beginning of the battle, when Jadis appears from behind the hill with all her troops, we can see her stopping close to an upper natural "step" in front of her. Later, she orders her bears to move, but we don't see her falling. The step is gone. moreQuotes:

Mrs. Pevensie: What do you think you're doing? Peter! Quickly, the shelter! Now!

I was fortunate enough to attend an advanced screening and was magnificently surprised. The film was beautifully made. The acting/voices were all wonderful, including the young talent. I think all ages will be entertained. The story contains important lessons for children, but also relevant reminders for adults. I also think attempts to compare the film to Lord of the Rings and/or Harry Potter would be unfortunate for all parties. They are each uniquely wonderful. Make sure you see this!
By the way, make sure you stay through the end credits to hear a beautiful song Alanis Morisette wrote especially for the film.
