Ah yes, the Ridiculous one. Such a delightfully funny ending.

I like Edmund, too. I do admire Peter's bravery, though.

It's been far too long since I've read the books, but just based on the movie... Well... Peter is my hero. Seriously.

It's easy to see Peter as symbolizing St.Peter,I mean aside from his name the place in the Last Battle where he uses the Keys is an obvious reference to St.Peter holding the Keys of the Kingdom of God that Christ gave him.

Reepicheep is also supposed to symbolize St. Peter. He has zealous courage, and the fact that he is a mouse represents St. Peter's weak faith.

That is pure speculation, maybe it's true but Lewis never said it outright.

Mr. & Mrs. Beaver! They are so awesome and cute! They're relationship is portrayed very sweetly, and I think that's very cute and amusing. They make me laugh.

Actually Peter was the one who was meant to symbolize St.Peter.Or was that too
obvious?

Let's not forget the baddies here.I would have to say the best villian was always the White Witch.

I agree. I love Jill because she isn't perfect. She forgets Aslan's direct instructions, she gets sidetracked, she even fails her missions. She is such a real and true representation of the Christian living a Christian life. So much is about failing, not being able to keep God's decrees, nor even loving Him as we should, but in the end, we realize that it is about His love (in Christ's death and resurrection) for us that matters in the end. And in the end Aslan loves Jill just as if she had done everything right. That is just beautiful.

I would say Jill is the most 'human' of Lewis' characters, and it is for that very reason that she is one of my favourite.

Nevermind that he was a tad headstrong and tended to write checks his faith couldn't cash from time to time. Hehe.

Edmund is my favorite character, because he was redeemed by Aslan's blood. I also really really like Jadis; she's the coolest witch ever! They completely messed her up in the movie though.

I've never really liked any Narnia charecter, but there is one person who I will always like the Proffesor. He was the only person that believed Lucy and he believed everything that was going on because he saw it come to life. Plus unlike Susan old age didn't stop him from believing.

Eustace is probably my favorite, and his name is used as part of the first line of Voyage of the Dawn Treader. That line is my favorite opening line for a book in literature, I think.

Reepicheep is also up there.

Trumpkin!

I've got a place in my heart for every irrascible, unattractive, difficult creature who shows the beauty of his true inner self when it counts. I just like characters like that.

Puddleglum gets a close second place for the same reason, I think.

Well, I had no problem with it! I mean, heck, he gave me a Red Ryder BB Rifle! In fact, that may have been my all-time favorite Christmas gift!
