One tiny moment I liked was the expression on Aslan's face as he watched the Pevensie's leave and it looked like He was going to cry .Like...it had a dad watching his kids go off to school or graudate from High School/College feel. In a good way.

Does the Asylum count?

Meanwhile in another universe, Galactus, Devourer of Worlds woke up from a nap. "Mmm," he rumbled, scratching his belly. "I could use a snack. I wonder if anyone will miss the Vogon home world."

And presumably,her favorite horse, her pet cat, and her bowl of goldfish.

The problem is, again if we are going off of Lewis wrote with Jadis, there is very little room for her to be "sympathetic" . The only account we have regarding the destruction of Charn is her own. Further when Digory and Polly call her out for how cruel it is to destroy all life on Charn, all...

At this point, I would gladly take seeing the daughter of Jadis from Narnia and Saruman from LOTR show up in a Disney's Descendants movie. At least that would be entertaining!

Worth mentioning some of those villains may even have multiple mantle bearers! There's at least two Electros, several Venoms, a couple different Scorpions...

Emma Mackey has been cast as Jadis. https://narniafans.com/2025/04/emma-mackey-cast-as-jadis-in-netflixs-the-magicians-nephew/

On the other hand, the last thing I need, or want with Jadis is for us to receive some sob story to justify her omnicidal tendencies. I've reached a point where I get tired of trying to make villains, in particular irredeemably evil ones just "misunderstood". I actually miss the days of...

You know that's the thing with fan productions .Sometimes they can get better as they go a long. For example my buddy and I were burnt out by the Star Wars sequel trilogy. Lo and behold we saw two phenomenal fan-made animated adaptions of the Thrawn Trilogy. They start a bit wonky at first but...

That said, I don't know about the rest of you, but frankly with all the news with the movie, both true and false I find myself in a strange place as far as anticipation. I'm not angry. I'm not worried. I'm not excited. I'm just... Meh. Like I wish I was angry and upset about the Streep...

Or, as I said earlier in this thread, the infamous Arwen at Helms Deep rumors that surfaced surrounding The Two Towers. It's notable there were even rumors at that time that the movie would receive a new title to avoid offending American sensibilities as it would have been released a full year...

As Rings of Power has been brought up in this thread this article seems appropriate to the conversation. https://www.theonering.com/amazon-quietly-tests-rings-of-power-on-other-streaming-platforms-as-season-3-hangs-in-the-balance/ This has to be kept in mind when it comes to Narnia. Not only...

Forget a nightmare....it feels like the franchise is sailing through the Dark Island of Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and the captain has decided it's a good idea to ram the ship into the iceberg from Titanic. And instead of a string quartet playing the hymn "Nearer My God To Thee" we have to...
