Now this looks like it might actually be a rather cool movie!

Have you read the books?  Seven in all.

Seems that they have rights to do 4 books as of now.

Been trying to figure out which ones they will go with...

BTW, now that Peter Jackson & his Wingnut studio is done with King Kong, I wonder if he will tackle 'The Hobbit'....

Hopefully they'll handle the Hobbit.

My guesses if I had to on which four of the Narnia series would be

The last battle
Prince Caspian
Voyage of the Dawn Treader

And of course the one they are doing

The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe.

I think 'The Last Battle' should be the last one since it will give the kids thru out the earlier movies the time to grow up and possibly still play their parts....

So I would replace it with 'A Boy & His Horse'.

Wasn't it "A Horse and His Boy" ? (sorry for being pedantic, Bear)

The kids are adults  in that one too, prolly more so than in "The Last Battle".

LOL... no problem... and you are correct.

I think I got my books mixed up... haven't read them in a LONG time...

They had better do The Magician's Nephew or I'm going to throw a piece of lamp post right between Aslan's eyes!   ;)
