    Ideas for Filming Location

    Well, one thing for sure, I think most Narnia fans would agree to stay away from California. That's where a lot of major Hollywood studios are located. I've heard they've been looking at Narni, Italy as a possible filming location. Well, it was originally called "Narnia", so it may have been...

    Name Origins

    I don't believe there's been a thread about our user names and what inspired us to use them in the forum. I would like to hear others as well. I'll go and start with mine. It's a combination of my real name and "tarkheena." I think it's because I have wanted to be a Calormene (a free and nice...

    Narnia In what order should the Chronicles of Narnia be read?

    Narnia fans are usually dead-set on publication order. Then of course, right now, in the book stores, the set will be in Chronological order. I don't know if they still sell publication order. Perhaps you could put a sticker number over the spine. For instance, even though LWW has a number 2 on...

    How did Jadis come to control Narnia?

    The White Witch's origin has been a topic of debate, including how she came to power in Narnia. In LWW, Mr. Beaver mentions that she's not a daughter of Eve, but half Jinn and half giant. In MN, CS Lewis gave her a different backstory, indicating she had originated from a different world...

    Edmund's Gift

    I wonder if Edmund's gift would be discernment? I think the other Pevensies gifts represent something. For Peter, it's leadership. For Susan, it's prayer (the horn calling for help). For Lucy, healing (the healing cordial). So I would say that Edmund's gift would be good judgment, given his...

    Differences You Actually Want

    So, I'm sure we all want the new film or series franchise to be different than the Walden and BBC. A faithful adaption, yes, but not rush through it. For instance, the battle scene in LWW will obviously be different than the BBC and Walden. That is, not as epic as Walden but not quite as cheesy...

    What if Narnia Books Were Each A Musical?

    I can now almost picture the gnomes in The Silver Chair singing "Ding dong, the witch is dead" from Wizard of Oz.

    What if Narnia Books Were Each A Musical?

    It's possible that a Narnia musical could turn out cheesy. Oh yeah. Then it may be possible that Shift went to live far up to the West because no one wants to be his friend.

    Buddy Cop Narnia

    What about with Caspian X and Drinian? 'One guy's the King of Narnia... the other guy's the sea voyage captain!"

    Which Character Are Looking Forward To Most Seeing?

    I think talk a lot about which character we're looking forward to most seeing in Narnia film or series adaption. For me, they would be Digory, Polly, Fledge, Bree, Hwin, Puddleglum, Jewel, Shasta and Corin (I wonder if they'll be play by twin brothers or have the same actor play both roles)...

    Buddy Cop Narnia

    While villains movies or series has been popular over the years, I don't think it's likely that even the Narnia villains would get their own movies. Though it wouldn't surprise me if they were flesh out in some way. Plus, I don't know if anyone would go see Narnia villains movies. I actually...

    The Tisroc (may he live forever)

    I always had the impression that "the Tisroc (may he live forever)" was a fancy way of saying, "Oh, he's really great!" Obviously, there's no way he would have lived forever. I'm sure there's a whole lineage of Tisrocs. It does make me wonder who first Tisroc was. I think it's on the line of...

    Susan Marries Rabadash

    Rabadash did plan to capture Susan and force her to marry him. How he feels about her is just twisted. When he visited Cair Paravel, he seemed to be a nice guy. Even Susan was impressed. When Susan and Edmund visit Tashbaan, she began to have second thoughts about marrying Rabadash. Then...

    Focus on the Family Narnia Dramatization

    I have listened to both. The Focus on the Family are superior, but the BBC is decent. The BBC Radio 4 arranged a lot of things. For instance, MN has the older Digory narrating the story. In SC, Eustace tells Edmund and Lucy that he's not happy with going back to school. Even in LB, they did...

    Idea: What if Netflix created a Radio Drama of the books?

    Would they have Douglas Gresham doing the prologue and epilogue, like Focus On The Family Radio Theatre did? It's likely the original cast won't be back. David Suchet probably wouldn't be back as Aslan. Stash Kirkbride actually sounded like what I picture Rishda to sound like. Though he...

    BBC Radio 4 Narnia

    Thank you. While I think the Focus on the Family are superior, the BBC Radio 4 are decent.

    Movies AND Series?

    While a majority of fans are dead-set on reading the series in publication order, I think there's an advantage for doing the films or series in chronological order. Here are some reasons- 1. LWW has been adapted so many times (the 1979 animated, BBC, and Walden). So starting with LWW again...

    Lewis and Beauty

    Then of course, Swanwhite was described by Jewel as beautiful, that when she looked into any forest pool, her beauty was shone for a year.

    Interesting. Which ones are they?

    Changing And Rearranging Narnia

    I know we've talk about differences we want for Narnia film or series. However, this is the discussion about what changes we can speculate or expect filmmakers to do. First off, I think it comes down to what fans of the books really want in a film adaption. While it's true that fans want a...
