Are there others out there?

I have never seen it. I will check it out for sure...you have good taste in movies so I trust the recommendation. Thanks.

I saw the DVD of the first movie, and it was pretty good, as far as fantasy kids' fare goes.

I haven't read any of the books, nor do I plan to (I'm just not really interested, and I have too much other stuff on my plate), but I'll take it on everybody else's word that they're good stuff. And anything that encourages kids and young adults to read 700-page novels is a boon to society, as far as I'm concerned.
