As I have seen the movie twice now, I can comment on a couple things as compared to LOTR. Since this movie used the same battle simulation program, massive, as LOTR, I can honestly say, that Narnia showed me a better depiction at what it could do what with over 70 some different types of creature fighting in the battle. I believe that LOTR was the pioneer films that paved the way to these films. Both films are incredible in their own rights. I honestly believe that without JAckson's films, these films would have been a lot more difficult, if not impossible, to make, as some of their techonology had not been tried out yet.
Narnia was a lot closer to the book than any film I had yet seen that was based on a book, but with LOTR they had a lot more material to place in three hours than Narnia had to place in their two. However, their were a few creativce liberties taken as with all films. BUt overall they were good films that I believe C S Lewis and all his inkling frieds would have been proud about.
