The Caspian movie actually rocked. I read the books when i was a kid... and loved them... all 7 and I grew up on the old ENGLISH/BRIT BBC versions. (You want to see dull and non magical.... ) But good for their time and a young lad. Disney has gone and done these stories right. CS Lewis wrote them with a different style, for a different age group vs. Tolkien who stylized his books for an older group (Which by the way.... if you are seeing similarities from the two... its because the authors were friends... they used to hang out in a pub in England and chat about story ideas and belonged to a writing/story club). So it makes perfect sense that the books are done by Disney... and have been done with great book accuracey. SECOND= i also grew up on Indiana Jones movies... and loved them. I was sooo stoked about this new one... but it sucked bad... and most of the people ive talked to did not like it eather.. i think that the "Name brand" effect will not last for some good numbers. I really hope that Disney does not give up on Narnia. They are good stories... especially if you have taken the time to read them. And Harry Potter... (the Lord of Rings/Narnia/OZ Books of our day) will compliment Narnia for me.... someone who has a bridge in both generaltional gaps. A couple thoughts…

And yeah Narnia isn't a bomb by any means its just surrounded by other films that are popular. I'm sure this franchise will continue, eeehhh gads. Panda when you see Indy, don't take it too seriously just try to have a good time, and then come back and tell us how it sucked. Haha ;-) Iron Man deffinitly surprised hollywood!

I believe many execs didn't think Ironman would be as popular as it is. Indy on the other hand, anyone believing that the movie wouldn't make bank is completely oblivious. I haven't seen Indy yet BTW, but then again I never saw any of them in the theater regarding the timing of the release, maybe Disney got overconfident that the second movie of the franchise (the first being quite successful) would outpace a comic movie of a second-string superhero.

All of the subsequent books were after thoughts anyway - it's not like a true septology(?). If they stop at two, fine. Move one to other franchises Who cares about Narnia.

Wed, 28 May 2008 00:30:05 +0000 http://dev2.screenrant.com/is-narnia-done-1619/#comment-16363 I doubt Narnia is done. It's been out for a week and a half, unfortunately coming out a week before the Indy Jones Mega monster and a surprisingly big Iron Man movie. The summer's competition is possibly the toughest I've ever seen. We have to see how it's legs will hold up as well as Indy Jones which really isn't that great of a movie, easily the worst in the series. Most who have seen Caspian enjoyed it and gave it B's and A's as its grade. I doubt Narnia is done.
