I can show this to my kids on the coming weekend because they have finished watching all the shows by <a href="http://www.animationmagazine.net/tag/andy-yeatman/" rel="nofollow">Andrew Yeatman</a> on Netflix.diego78https://www.blogger.com/profile/13422396713135093491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469039199145284278.post-44695150146745874692016-11-21T12:48:33.758-08:002016-11-21T12:48:33.758-08:00Thank you, Elaina! :) Ah, they are so good!

I totally understand have a variety of favorites when it comes to genres! :D I love all different types of movies and books!<br /><br />Me too! ^_^ I believe they still are making "The Silver Chair:, but it's just taking forever. Last I heard they were almost done writing the script??

I absolutely love the Chronicles of Narnia movies and books! :) They are probably tied as my favorites with the Anne of Green Gables series :D I know those are not similar at all, but I love a ton of different genres :P I really hope they will make another movie soon! I thought that they were going to make The Silver Chair, but I am not sure now :/ Have you heard anything about it recently?Elaina P.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469039199145284278.post-41220922546889340122015-03-08T11:47:05.590-07:002015-03-08T11:47:05.590-07:00Ah, yeah, I guess we can tend to do that the more ...Ah, yeah, I guess we can tend to do that the more we know!

I always did think Lucy's conversation with Reep about the edge of the world seemed a little awkward, though.

Anyway, yes, Will Poulter was great!!

I even saw it in theaters twice, and I can still count the number of times I've been to the movies on my fingers. The added stuff didn't bother me, not like the changes to Prince Caspian did, but I finally realized Dawn Treader wasn't really very well written. A lot of the dialogue was awkward and unnatural, and the story felt slightly rushed. They would have done better to make it the same length as the previous two movies. Will Poulter was amazing, though. I hope he comes back for The Silver Chair.Morgan Hunekehttp://www.morganhuneke.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469039199145284278.post-73692084470686724402015-01-27T18:27:44.994-08:002015-01-27T18:27:44.994-08:00Right.

Now if you did really grow up with the books and all, movie changes can be really frustrating! I haven't read <i>The Hobbit</i> or <i>The Lord of the Rings</i> trilogy, so I wouldn't know of the changes the movies had. But I will mention the <i>Love Comes Softly</i>... the changes in the movie were horrific!! Wow, they really took the story all kinds of places it wasn't supposed to go. That always frustrates me.<br /><br />But yeah. There usually <i>is</i> things to like about the movies, even when we find disturbing changes. <br /><br />Well... I'm not really sure. But a lot of people seem to be speculating that he's going to be "too old" or whatever. :(Shantelle Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671416965777525382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469039199145284278.post-38627844055105991032015-01-27T07:02:23.326-08:002015-01-27T07:02:23.326-08:00Yes. But, like you mentioned in your Prince Caspia...Yes. But, like you mentioned in your Prince Caspian post, you saw the first two movies before reading the books. And I think that does really change our perspective. I had read them long before seeing the films, but they really weren't books I grew up on! As I have heard others described them to be! <br />The books that are near and dear to my heart from childhood are Tolkins! The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings! They are sacred and only a few changes could be tolerated!:-)<br />And as for book to movie inaccuracy don't get me started on all the thing Peter Jackson did WRONG! It could be hours before I'm finished! ;-)<br /><br />But even beyond that I really liked the atmosphere that these where filmed with!<br />More sunshine and bright pretty colors and not the kind of dingy look that it seems like LOTR had about them ever when they weren't dealing with evil!<br /><br />Is there talk of Will Poulter not playing Eustace? I guess I hadn't thought of that, just assumed that he would!E.

I'm so excited for <i>The Silver Chair</i>, except, will they have Will Poulter as Eustace?!<br /><br />Yeah, it is hard if your favorite books get made into movies not so accurate. But I think accurate enough! I just love these movies.<br /><br />Yep! :)Shantelle Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671416965777525382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469039199145284278.post-17967753987927616762015-01-26T19:34:32.218-08:002015-01-26T19:34:32.218-08:00I agree, I loved this movie!

Perhaps they don't like how it differed from the book, (which I thought that it had a much more cohesive story arc then the book)!<br />But, if you where attached to the book and a movie changes things around, I can see not liking that!<br />Anyway! Great movie!<br />E.E.
