Back in September I compared the VDT Cast to the book Illustrations.
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=330
Before that I wanted to go through each of the book illustrations and compare them to the movie versions.
I finally got the images together and thought I would start with LWW and then continue on to PC.
Please feel free to move this post if it's not in the right spot.
Here are the first four comparisons:
The Professors House
The Wardrobe
The Lamppost
Lucy and Tumnus
The Value of myth is that it takes all the things you know and restores to them the rich significance which has been hidden by the veil of familiarity. C.S. Lewis
These are really cool to look at! Please do more. I wouldn't have the patience to look for the images..
The lampposts look really similar, and I never really noticed how alike Mr.Tumnus looks in the illustrations and the movie.
Avie by flambeau.
"I'm there through your heartache, I'm there in the storm.. I don’t care where you've fallen, where you have been, I'll never forsake you, my love never ends, it never ends."
-Times, Tenth Avenue North
These are amazing comparisons. No doubt the film designers studied these book illustrations in great detail. They show great respect for the original visual concepts.
Of course the film wardrobe blows away the book wardrobe!
It was only the beginning of the true story, which goes on forever, and in which every chapter is better than the one before.
Wow, great idea for a thread; thanks for sharing, 7chronicles!
Here are a few I did:
I'm really quite surprised at how well some of these match up. I suspect they wont work quite so well for PC though, as Mr. Adamson said they didn't pull from the illustrations with that one as much.
