Chronicles of Narnia - Prince Caspian

[Snowflake]

The teaser trailer (http://disney.go.com/disneypictures/narnia/) is online and I'm liking the look of the next one in the series. I really do need to re-read the books, it has been decades.

...as long as they don't do another lame "Promo-vert-ttraction" at WDW about THIS one... the last one stank on ice !!

It did? Well at least it was true to the movie.

[Not Afraid]

You know, I never saw the first one.

[Snowflake]

I enjoyed the last one. I know like every other film adaptation, it's not 100% true to the books, but I still enjoyed it. Maybe because it has been so long since I've read the books, I hardly remember them.

[lashbear]

You know, I never saw the first one.
Film or "Promo-vert-ttraction" ?

If film, it was quite good (I saw it in Hospital, so anything would have been good, though.)

If the "attraction" - Be glad. Be very glad. Let me take you through it:

Think entering (through a BIG wardrobe door) a warehouse filled with fake flocked trees, then actress on gantry with Icicles on her head says something non-sequiitish, then movie trailer plays on screen between trees, then lights go up, people think this was the short pre-show, so they wait for the big ride/attraction/stuntshow/experience/darkride to start. While they wait, a lady from the gift shop pokes her head around the corner near Mr Tumnuss's front door (which we're all expecting to enter) and says "That's it, exit's this way."

WTF ?@?!?!?!?!

[flippyshark]

Even worse, this promo-vert-traction is still running! I don't know if they are updating it or not. (Surely they must be.)

Say, didn't I warn you two not to venture into this "attraction?"

I've been to that beach at the beginning of the trailer. It's Cathedral Cove. Beautiful place up on the Coromandel Peninsula in NZ.

I liked the first one, so I will most likely see the second. I read the books over and over when I was younger.

I like the novel of Prince Caspian much more than The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe so since I like the movie of the latter I have hopes.

But the two have such a tenuous narrative connection I wonder if the audience for the first movie that was unfamiliar with the books will feel some shock.

OK Prince Caspian is fracking hot. (http://imdb.com/name/nm1602660/)

I'd like to spend a few nights riding his Dawn Treader.

I agree with JW - Twinkies give me diabetes....... :p

OMG he's like 26, it's not like he's fresh outta high school or anything :p

[JWBear]

Regardless of age, I do not find him attractive at all.

[lashbear]

OMG he's like 26, it's not like he's fresh outta high school or anything :p
Believe me, I've seen 35yo twinkies... it's not pretty.

I think all men should become bears at 20. :p :evil:

[Alex]

Am I misrembering the story? Isn't 25 kind of old for the character of Prince Caspian; isn't he like 14/15 years old in the book?

[Chernabog]

You're remembering correctly. I think he was supposed to be like 13 in the books. The guy IS young looking, but not that young looking, obviously. Not sure why they made the decision to change his age.

[innerSpaceman]

So that his hawtness (yes, you are correct) might draw people like me into the theater who are otherwise ho-hum on this entire series.

I liked the first one well enough. Not well enough to go see film after film after film. I never read the books, and I never cared enough for any previous of the umpteen Lion Witch Wardrobe adaptations to take up the books.


This one is likely a Netflix for me (just like the first) ... unless dashing Prince Caspian gets into some very squirrellyrotic hijinks in this particular sequel.

[lashbear]

squirrellyrotic hijinks.
?!?!?!?!:confused:

[Morrigoon]

Lash: I actually like the idea of an attraction where you enter through a big wardrobe door into a tree-filled whatsis. It's the rest ya lost me on.

Hmm... must work this through into an attraction concept, as it has potential :)

[Morrigoon]

Oooh.. Caspian IS hawt.
