Trailer for “Voyage of the Dawn Treader”
The trailer for the next Chronicles of Narnia movie is up:
I’m hopeful but wary about this one. Prince Caspian was big and loud but I thought it missed the heart of Lewis’ novel. Walden Media is producing again, but this time Fox is financing and distributing the film since Disney gave up on the franchise after the mediocre domestic success of Caspian. The capable Michael Apted is the new director, and I can only hope he and his creative team have captured the spirit of one of my favorite Lewis novels. The ending with Reepicheep is a particularly powerful moment in the series, but the rest of the narrative is a bit untraditional for a fantasy story. It may be hard to pull off, so I’m approaching this one with cautious optimism.




That was my favorite of the books by far. I so want this to not suck.
