Chronicles of Narnia - A New Movie!

[Kameko]

That's right, you heard me. With the Lord of the Rings still trying to find room to display all those Oscars, Walt Disney studios has announced that it will help finance and distribute a new movie based on the second book in C.S.Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia, "The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe, is in the works.• The day after the Lord of the Rings' Oscar sweep, Walt Disney Studios said it will back another fantasy saga about war between good and evil. Disney agreed with Walden Media on Monday to co-finance and distribute a live-action version of C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. "I think this is the kind of movie audiences are looking for," said Dick Cook, Disney Studios chairman.I, for one, can't wait. Let's just hope all the recent mess at Disney doesn't screw it up. :dead:

This sounds great... but knowing Disney they probably totally screw it right up.... but hopefully its good.... any release date for it yet??

[Kid Icarus]

I actually like that book... but i'm betting they'll drop the ball with the movie.

[Deathknight]

Live action version of it? It's already been done. I even have the VHS.

[Mars-Chan]

Really? I'm setting aside judgment until I see it.

Live action version of it? It's already been done. I even have the VHS.

Yeah but it sucks, see.

My brother and I, about 5yrs ago, decided we would make these movies. Guess we were beaten to it.

[Deathknight]

They don't suck, what's wrong with them?

[J Legault]

Sounds good, I'm a fan of C.S. Lewis's work. I've been into the Narnia sereis since I was in 5th grade.

Ofcourse I've seen the Lion,Witch, and the Wardrobe movie that was made 16 or so years ago. but there was never any complete saga collections of All 7 books. I always wanted All of 7 books into a Live action film saga.

But I wouldn't mind it being made by disney, If they were able to make Pirates of Carribean and Haunted Mansion to be great action movies then I think they would do as well in these ones.

I'll be looking forward to a new Lion,Witch & Wardrobe movie. I hope there'll be a complete saga of it. :)

Hahahaha! Yeah. No kidding. You totally took the words out of my mouth.

Personally I was excited until I read the word D-i-s-n-e-y. I would used to have been in love with the idea but for the past several years their movies, animation sadly included, have sucked major ass.

It's more sad for me that I have to say that. I used to love Disney. nTheir cartoons at least... some of their movies are OK... I still do love em... just the Disney before Pocahontas.

Their last movie, which I can safely say I enjoyed, was Hercules.
Let's hope they don't botch this, eh?
:tconfuse:

If anyone should do it, it should be the people who did/are doing the Lord of the Rings. The effects they have for that would be Perfect for this...

[malignant]

You guys are being to hard on Disney...

Pirates of the carribean was a great Movie.

They can mess it up bad, agreed. But it could also Be good.

"I don't think that Lord of the Rings got the point across. We need to emphasize the historical importance of these battles by remaking these types of movies over and over and over and over and over and over and over again for the next 5 to 7 years. The benefit of doing these movies so many times over is that we can learn supress our own Saurons, like Osama bin Laden, and the voices in my head that tell me I need more money.
