NArnia was more betterly made, lol, and it sold more. get over it, there's nothing we can do to change that, until the extended editions come out, since i know they will... i mean HP is almost as popular, that i know of, as LotR, so extended editions will have to happen in a few years. GoF wasn't the best HP movie, you have to admit that, and Narnia was better... if you were a little kid. so ya, HP needs to be number one, and Narnia number 2, but since this has already happened... *sigh* what can ya do?

Really? Wow that's a shocker. I never saw Narnia but from what I heard and saw in the Previews, it was really good. It looked like a good movie (Note to self watch Narnia) But I'm an HP girl through and through so I'm pretty much blind to anything else.  HP movies will always be number one to me, and no one can convince me otherwise.  HP Rockers!!!!

although i thought GOF was amzing, because i love harry potter, i was actually really disappointed with it cos of all the stuff it missed out and i think overall narnia was a better movie so it deserves to win the top spot.

I don't just have to like HP I agree. Narnia was more loyal to the book. And it was a good movie. Really good. Now someone said here that Narnia copied the Book-Movie thing. Not true. Narnia was already a movie in the late '80's! |

| ♥ Mrs. Itachi Uchiha™ & MAJNOO! : Bleach & Kyo & Natsume ♥ [ Maxh!Jesh ] So Chronicles of Narnia surpassed Goblet of Fire? Well I haven't seen Chronicles of Narnia completely. Just parts of it. So I can't say whether it is good or not. But I don't mind it surpassing Goblet of Fire. It wasn't exactly my favourite movie. I didn't like Goblet of Fire that much so I'm not really disappointed although I'm not saying that Chronicles of Narnia is better.

KL i think narnia and harry potter were as good as each in different ways, and narnia stayed truer to the book in a way, cos the harry potter book stayed close to the story but did not contain all of the story if you see what i mean. whereas narnia comtained more of the story cos the book isnt as big

Narnia was fabulous and so was HP. Narnia was the same as the book which I really liked while HP tweaked a few things.

Fourth | well Narnia proved to be a better movie than GoF in the Oscars with more nominations and an Oscar to boot...but duh, GoF is better! Narnia was a remake and it has so much characters that needs computer graphics that's why it will be an impact once made these days...

I believe totally that Harry Potter is the better movie by far, but Narnia's more the family movie based for little kids. Take that into consideration, no wonder it sold more than Goblet of Fire. But Narnia was a terrible movie in my opinion. My loyalty far by is to Harry Potter. ~Stacey~
