Frederica Mathewes-Green makes an interesting point regarding Prince Caspian. She argues in this piece on National Review Online that the movie is actually better than the book and then lists 10 movies that were improvements on the books on which they were based.

As a HUGE fan of C.S. Lewis and the Chronicles of Narnia, that’s an emotionally difficult leap for me to make but I must say, Mathewes-Green makes some good points. She even argues that The Lord of the Rings trilogy makes for better films than books. Again, that’s a high hurdle but I do remember how the trilogy became much more ponderous in the second two books of the series so I can see where she’s coming from.

Anyway, give her piece a read give me some of your reaction.
