Wonder how they're going to screw this one up, hopefully the Harry Potter route will be taken, the books are plenty short and trim to allow tight scripting and LOTR has proven the technology exists so that technology is no hurdle.

I'm eager to see how these films are done. Lets hope that they find people who are fans of the film (not unlike LOTR) and know the books well.

you know, i just love it when someone tries to share information and the only reply someone can give is "hey man, that's old news!"

This will be the third attempt at adapting this story. There's was a crappy animated version and a live BBC version that suffered from severe budget depravation. Hopefully, this will turn out better, btu I somehow doubt it. It seems like the kind of story that in its original form wouldn't be a big enough draw to justify the kind of budget it would take to do it right.

I picked up The Chronicles of Narnia BBC version the other day. I only had the chance to watch The Loin, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. It is really under budget, but it isn't that bad. I really enjoyed watching the movie, and can't wait to view the rest of The Chronicles.

I would LOVE to see them made with a real budget though.

This could turn out really, really cool. I hope it comes through.

So is "The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" the first book in this series? What about "The Magician's Nephew", is that sort of a prequel, like the Hobbit is to LotR?
