The director for the third Narnia movie has been chosen; Michael Apted!

Interesting....

Poster for "Prince Caspian" is out...

I assume we'll be seeing a teaser trailer fairly soon. Probably with the Disney movie "Enchanted".

 

[Tim Glover]

Nice find David. Cool...

 

[Jason Roer]

Great poster. Can't wait for this film. I thought they did a spectacular job with The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe. It was a big surprise for me, because I wasn't thinking they could pull it off.

Cheers,

Jason

Looking good. Better than the LWW poster, IMO.

 

[MatthewLouwrens]

Excellent poster.

I also am VERY excited to see Prince Caspian. There's also been some really cool concept art released, here's one of them and you can also visit Ain't It Cool News to see the rest:http://www.aintitcool.com/node/34155

It's looking good so far!

(I tried to attach one of the images to this message but I'm not sure if it's going to work, so just click on the link if you want to see all of them...)

Bumping to post a video production blog that has some cool insight into the movie so far:

Looks very good. Hard to avoid the LOTR comparisons with that catapult shot, but, eh, what can you do? Also, Miraz fighting with that metal facemask on gives me a Gladiator vibe.

As far as adaptations go, Prince Caspian's narrative flow is difficult without making major adjustments, and everything I've read seems that they've made the right decisions. It has the potential to be a better film than the first since the story is less archetypal. Also, I liked the word "Narnia" in the logo being in ruins.

In any case, I'm looking forward to it.

 

[Arild]

I wouldn't care for that at all.

 

[Brandon Conway]

That honestly wouldn't bother me if it's kept logical (disagreement on how to go about doing what's best for Narnia).

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

I really like the way the use the ruins to visibly drive home how much time has passed since the last time they were in Narnia. I can't remember if Lewis used that device in the book, but it's very effective on screen.
Looks good; I liked Adamson's first Narnia so I'll trust him here too.

 

[DavidJ]

Wow, I thought that looked very good. I am now looking forward to it more than I thought I would.

 

[MatthewLouwrens]

Very impressive trailer - makes the film look better than TLTWATW. Still anxious about how they'll make the story work, but I'm still looking forward to it.

That is exactly what happens in the book. They find themselves in Narnia by some ruins, spend a while wondering where they are until they realise that they're actually at a now-unrecognisable Cair Paravel.
