After the disappointment in Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader the next movie that appears to in the making is The Magician’s Nephew. This is the prequel to The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, and it’s basically the origin story of the land of Narnia.
Hopefully with this next film, The Chronicles of Narnia will be making a new start from the very beginning. I at least want it to be closer to the books than the other movies were. Prince Capsian overdid the battle scenes, and while there wasn’t a lot of blood and gore, it was certainly not the fun story the book was. I haven’t seen The Voyage of the Dawn Treader yet but from most of the reviews it still fell short from people’s expectations. The only question left to this is why is The Magician’s Nephew the next movie and not The Silver Chair. Unfortunately the answer to this seems to be for more money to be made. The performance of the movies so far, copies the interest people had in the books and since The Magician’s Nephew is the second most popular book of the series Fox is predicting that the movie will be more successful than the previous.

ReplyDeleteHonestly, I think the Chronicles of Narnia are fine as movies. It's just that the audience isn't interested. There are action movies to be seen!

I agree, nerds all around the world are probably cringing with disgust at the fact that the films aren't being filmed in order.
ReplyDeleteListen, you can hear their fits of rage.
