C.S. Lewis' "The Chronicles of Narnia." is the next big thing this year.
I guess this is Disney's answer to Lord of the Rings.
The movie is based on a series of books by C.S. Lewis. The Chronicles of Narnia (better known as The Lion The Witch and the Wardrobe) tells the story of Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy, who are separated from their parents in London during the German air raids of World War II. They are sent to the country for safety and find a magic wardrobe that transports them to the mystical world of Narnia, a once peaceful land of talking beasts, dwarfs and giants. However, Narnia has been frozen by the evil White Witch, and the kids must help the lion Aslan break her spell.

This was one of the best books I've ever read. I don't see it as a reaction to Lord of the Rings though, it's more of a reaction to Harry Potter.
I'm looking forward to it.
I hear they are taking a darker approach to the movie. It will be interesting to see what they do with the material.
