Narnia Movies Released Yearly

Disney is taking the lion by the mane when it comes to their Narnia franchise and planning to apply the Harry Potter formula to it. Cinematical caught Disney’s panel at Comic Con today, where they announced that starting with The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian in 2008, they’ll be releasing one Narnia movie a year until they’ve made movies out of all seven of CS Lewis’s sort of Jesusy but not really books.

If Harry Potter can do it, I see no reason why they won’t be able to. Though I’m not sure what the rush is. With Harry Potter they were forced to do them as fast as possible before their child cast grows up. But only a few of the Narnia books contain the kids from the first movie. Once they get those out of the way, there’s really no hurry. But, with Harry Potter winding up, perhaps Disney is hoping audiences will simply jump over to their fantasy movies and re-adopt the same yearly movie going rhythm.

Actually, the really should just stop making them altogether after Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Though “Dawn Treader” is by far the best of the books, from there on the whole thing goes downhill and except for the prequel novel “The Magician’s Nephew” the rest really aren’t worth Hollywood’s time.

I respect his opinion too but I enjoyed all of the books. One of my favorites is "A horse and his boy". Also the children were in almost all the books. Some they were adults though.

Peter and Susan:
1. Lion, Witch and Wardrobe (Children and Adults)
2. Prince Caspian (Children)
3. A horse and His Boy (Adults)

Peter:
4. The Last Battle (Children)

Lucy and Edmond:
1. Lion, Witch and Wardrobe (Children and Adults)
2. Prince Caspian (Children)
3. A horse and His Boy (Adults)
4. The Last Battle (Children)
5. Voyage of the Dawn Treader (Children)

I too would like to see what they do with "the Last Battle" - but I think "The Magician's Nephew" would be the coolest.

Respect your opinion but I will have to disagree. I thought Voyage of the Dawn Treader was the weakest of the books, while The SIlver Chair and especially The Magicians Nephew are tops on my book. I cant wait to see all seven movies. The Last Battle should make an intresting movie if they stick with the book (as they did with The Lion The WItch and the Wardrobe).
