My favorite is in that one scene, unsure if it was in

The Voyage of the Dawn Treader​

But there is this scene where Lucy adorns herself in the mirror, then Aslan goes PSYCHE! Channeling that "1 Timothy 2, Acts 19:23-41 moment"

How about you? Whats your favorite Narnia moment!
 
The Silver Chair.... Puddleglum, Eustace and Jill have just freed Prince Rilian from the Chair's silver gyves, and are in metaphysical (and soon physical) battle with the Lady of the Green Kirtle (the Green Witch). Puddleglum (one of my favorie characters in all the Chronicles) articulates an excellent defense of Christianity.
But his funniest comment (and if you are familiar with his character he is not trying to be funny, he's just being himself) occurs as they are escaping Underland (deep underground) while the Sunless Sea is rising and is already lapping at their horses' feet.
Puddleglum says: "And you must always remember there's one good thing about being trapped down here: it'll save funeral expenses”.

I was quite sad that Disney never got that far. But i loved that part in the BBC tv series. I read all the books though, and they are amazing stories!
 
Pax Herlig, but I'm quite glad Disney never got that far.


I guess only positive thing Disney got going for now. Is Zootopia. The 2nd movie was pretty good :)

You know, that's the problem with mentioning/discussing one's favorite passages or parts or chapters from "The Chronicles...", (and it's a good problem to have 😄 ) but there are too many favorites. The Silver Chair will always be my favorite book of the seven, followed by The Magician's Nephew.
But there are so many passages and even whole chapters that I like from all seven Books, depending on my mood or whatever slings and arrows of outrageous fortune I'm experiencing.
I really can't survive without The Chronicles in my life ... no, I really cannot....😱😬🙄🙂

I agree. The family is the same, during my recent Antarctic trip by adult daughters thought that Enderby Island looked like the Lone Islands and the swimming King Penguins off Macquarie island could have passed for Dufflepuds!

Of course there are many passages which come a close 2nd to those I mentioned above - the resurrection of Aslan, the creation in the Magician's Nephew, Shasta's Encounter on the pass, Eustace trying the pie dish for size, Caspian entering Aslan's country to name a few

That one had me scratching my head for a minute or two **....then it was "D'oh!" 😄
** Which is surprising considering it's a scene from my favorite "Chronicle" 🙄

It was years before I saw it, possibly not until I was reading it aloud to my children!
