Narnia's PRINCE CASPIAN leaps to Summer 2008!

Hey folks, Harry here - According to Hollywood Reporter two of Walden Media's giant fantasy films were set to basically collide in the holiday season of 2007... being scheduled for release just one week apart. The films? THE WATER HORSE, which Peter Jackson is onboard as a producer with WETA aboard for effects splendor... and then there was Narnia's PRINCE CASPIAN. Disney, which has PRINCE CASPIAN, decided to stake a claim on Summer 2008 with their sequel to their hit fantasy from last year. Was it Disney blinking - or just shrewd negotiations from Walden Media that saw its profits shrinking - and let Disney in on some of what's going on with THE WATER HORSE - which helped them to see it as a threat? We'll probably never know. One this is certain, THE WATER HORSE apparently began shooting this week, so it definitely had a head start on PRINCE CASPIAN. This gives Adamson a bit more room to nail PRINCE CASPIAN with both pre-production and post... which for a fantasy on that scale is always a good thing. Bad thing? We have to wait longer. Sigh.

Adamson is such a boring director. TLWATW was completely uninspired and mediocre at best. Not sure if I'll catch this one in the theater.

Oh God no, not another one.

I was quite surprised with the first movie. I had no intentions of seeing it, but I saw it in the theatre and I like it alot. I also say skip the second movie and the the third one too. But sometimes waiting makes better movies.

I'll probably see it, but I'm in the same camp you are. TLTW&TW was Bore City.

The first one really had a huge pace problem. But that girl was so pretty, she must be hot by now.

the first movie wasnt really bad, but it was unspectacular in a loud way.

These books bored the hell out of me when I was younger and I don't remember finishing a single one. Can't imagine I'll ever see the movies.

I will be all over this when it comes out.

Caspian sucked. At least they skipped Horse and his Boy.
