It's been a while since I read Terabithia and watched Narnia, but without getting into spoilers I would say no. At least plot-wise anyway, in terms of how pretty the two worlds look no comment since I never saw Terabithia as the movie.

Have read all 7 Narnia books, haven't read Terabithia.

Comparing based on the first 25 minutes of the Terabithia film.

Terabithia goes in a pretty different direction.

Go watch it and don't bother posting about it again.

Terabithia goes... very differently. In a good way though.

Good, surprising movie.

Well so far it's kids "discover" fantasy world, but in Terabithia it's all in their minds.

Hence "budget".

If it gets radically different from that my apologies. But uh... comparison seems apt enough so far.

Because this way it's more fun, because you can laugh at how wrong I am. Also, it stopped being quite so budgety.

Terebithia is way more about the characters than it is about the fantasy. That's what I would say is the major difference.

I remember liking Terabithia the book more than the Narnia books.

Never seen the movies except the first Narnia but they look like garbage.

ALSO:

4 girls and a boy and you still want to call your boy "Jess"? You're basically asking for him to get bullied. And when did they start giving away dogs? Because last I checked they were f***ing expensive. I can give a pass on artsy fartsy parents just nodding and accepting the gift though.

When I read the book, I didn't think their imagination of Terebithia was that in-depth so I feel like a lot was added just so people would see it.

I mean sure, with the "did you forget anything" and the glance at the house was clearly foreshadowing, but I thought it was just showing how much he thought about her.

And there is "Ye Bridge".

Also, there is no way he doesn't immediately re-imagine her in Terabithia in some perfect ascended form. And then there can be a sequel after he's delusionally convinced himself she isn't really dead and in order to do so has forced himself to truly believe Terabithia is real.

But really though. There is no way that film shouldn't end with him seeing her in imaginary form in Terabithia.

Literally no way.

I disagree with this. SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS Terabitha itself was built to conquer their fears, including loneliness. They excluded everyone from it, especially May Belle. When Leslie dies, he's separated from the illusion briefly and realizes what she did for him. Leslie made things perfect and beautiful, and if he simply imagined her back and secluded himself in again (technically alone), he would be doing her honor a disservice. He'd be diving into an unhealthy illusion, as opposed to a healthy means to conquer one's fears.
