>>> "...talking animals." <<<If you really think about it, Harry Potter doesn't have a lot of talking animals, especially natural world animals like beavers. Talking beavers aren't an unheard of phenomenon mind you ...ummm, but maybe we shouldn't go there since we're discussing a "G" rated flick! ;^)
>>> "An odd critique from someone who rates "Harry Potter" at the top of his list?" <<<
BTW, I didn't place Harry Potter at the top of the list, that honor goes to Peter Jackson's LoTR trilogy. However, the kids in Harry Potter are far more interesting, more cleverly drawn and make more sense given their fantasy world.
In short, I saw nothing in Narnia that would make me want to go back and read the author's work.
