The first one was really good, and was fairly accurate to the book. The second one was alright, but went astray from the original writtings. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader would be cool to see on the big screen, with or with out Disney.

The first one was okay, though not entirely faithful to the book. The second one was iffy. Poor choice of director for both. The actors were just fine.

The Voyage of the Dawn Treader would be a fantastic one to put to screen, but considering the depth of mythology and symbolism in that book, you'd need a magnificient director to take it on. I'd love to see what Ridley Scott would do with it. Or maybe Charles Sturridge.-

I thought Prince Caspian was a fab movie in and of itself, but I didn't like how much it strayed from the book.

I think Chris Columbus would be a good choice as director for Voyage of the Dawn Treader, which is likely to be the last one. I just can't see Silver Chair or The Last Battle being made into movies.-

Agreed. Especially, The Last Battle. To much controversy would build up on the story lines metaphor between Christianity and Islam. Though neither name is brought up, one could read between the lines, Christianity, the true religion, and Islam, the false one. Though at the end it implys that anyone with a pure heart of good and sense of justice follows the one true God, regardless of what the religion is called. Trying not to ruin the book for people that have never read all of the Narnia series.

I think another problem is that the series doesnt have that much of a fan base. Even though most people probally heard of, "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe.", I dont think to many people have read the rest of the series. Which I definately recommend. They may seem like children books, but like Dionys point out they have a depth of mythology and symbolism. I personally read them all 2 years ago, after my open heart surgery botch job (long story), and I found them all to fantastic.
