    I think Prince Caspian the movie was better than Prince Caspian the book

    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.

    Attention-Deficit Roleplaying

    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."

    What is ONE thing you hope happens in the Netflix Narnia stuff, that you are concerned they won't do?

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

    What is ONE thing you hope happens in the Netflix Narnia stuff, that you are concerned they won't do?

    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...

    Silly Ideas for the Netflix Narnia Movies

    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!

    White and Green

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

    What is ONE thing you hope happens in the Netflix Narnia stuff, that you are concerned they won't do?

    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...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    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...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    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...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    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...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    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...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    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...

    Script A Scene For Narnia Film

    From the Magician's Nephew The arrival in Charn. Exterior day camera at first appears out of focus, as though it’s being looked at through a sheet of gauze, allowing viewers to feel like they are being caught up in the magic as his world grows into view. Not that threes much to look at...

    Ideas for Opening Credits In Narnia Films

    As far as Magician's Nephew, I'd almost like something akin to the 40 + year old TV special "Mickey's Christmas Carol" wherein, instead of at the end, we see Pauline Baines Illustrations from the original book. Then the camera pans to a copy of the book, sitting on a cushion and it opens and the...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    -Although, between you me, and the digital wall, what they are even thinking about doing with Aslan makes Peter of the Walden/Disney Prince Caspian look like Steve Rogers/Captain America in the MCU in comparison.

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    fair enough. While they don't care about fans, they do care about two other things: making and losing money. You are right in saying they don't seem to learn the lessons, but at some point a studio can only make so many flops before it can't stay a float. Look at Disney. I saw a headline that...

    Narnia movie already doomed for failure? Aslan to be female???

    Another choice I saw fans suggest was Henry Cavill, Superman from Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, Justice League and Black Adam, as he too is actually British and has a deep, rumbly voice. But sadly, it's out of our hands, and we are at the mercy of Studio execs with MBAs. As for me, I'm...
