Prince Caspian
Might go and see this one, even though I didn't like the first Narnia film, cos Ben Barnes is a total fox!

I hated the first Narnia film, so i probably won't bother with this one, I love the books & I don't want it ruined!
|
Em_J
|
No I thought the first one was crap!
|
April_Rose
|
Yeah, they left out all the best bits, to pander to the Christians in America - there is a christian undertone to the books, but it's not laid on so thick, mostly it's just a wonderful magical children's story, but they ruined it for the film.
|
Em_J
|
They always do that, tis silly really! Did it to the Golden Compass too.
|
April_Rose
|
Yeah, it's bloody annoying!
|
Jenny*
|
yeah! gutted when they ruined that!

Ok saw Prince Caspian last night. So much better than the first Narnia film. It was actually really good! Though I was mostly distracted with how totally uber hot Ben Barnes is... he has fantastic eyes, they're pretty much black!! *swoon* Could've just watched a whole two hours of Ben Barnes just doing nothing....
Anyway, yeah good film! The only stupid bit was the romance between Caspian and Susan, seeing as they hardly speak at all during the whole film, yet they're kissing at the end.
|
Jenny*
|
yeah that would annoy me too
|
Em_J
|
It was like it was put in just for the sake of having a bit of romance in the film! Was totally random. Plus I was grossed out that Ben Barnes is 26 and she looks about 16 or something!
|
Jenny*
|
... do they get together in the book?
|
Em_J
|
I've never read it! But I think I read somewhere that there's no romance in the book.
|
Jenny*
|
ooo they soooo shouldn't go against the book. that's law number one.
|
Em_J
|
Bad film makers. Still, I'd watch it again!
|
Jenny*
|
but only for Ben Barnes...
|
Em_J
|
Well yeah! He's sooooo fine! I've just found out that he can play the drums too, that makes him even more attractive! And he's 6'1" although he doesn't look that tall... Too tall for Alex...
|
Jenny*
|
well if he doesn't look that tall, when he plays Alex ( ) they can shoot it from an angle where he looks normal height!
|
Em_J
|
Yes this is true, we can still cast him, yay! Although he's gonna be busy with the next Narnia films now... hmm... may have to kidnap him...
|
Jenny*
|
ooo that sounds like fun! I'm in!
|
Em_J
|
Yay!

So , the first Narnia film is on TV now and the rest of the family are watching it. It's been on forever though, and it's reaaaally dull! Booored of it, boooored!
|
Em_J
|
Yeah I'm watching it too. The first one is crap, always said that!! Dull. Caspian is waaaay better.
|

I don't think I could bring myself to watch the second one after this I think I'm rooting for the witch by now...wish the wolves would just eat the bloody kids like they've been threatening to do all along
|
Em_J
|
I saw this one at the cinema, had to sit through the whole thing! There's more action in Caspian, plus Ben Barnes being in it helps!
|
redwinegoblin
|
I'm not sure that would help me enjoy it more! The lion's just eaten the witch so hopefully it's nearly finished....
|
Em_J
|
I've just read a Neil Gaiman short story about this, the lion and the witch were doing it and then the lion ate the kids!!
|
redwinegoblin
|
That's much more like it! If it was any kind of lion then it would have eaten the whole cast by now....
|
Em_J
|
Yep! I can't stand the lion, I hate that he just jumps in and saves the day!
|
redwinegoblin
|
Tis rubbish! Although the bloke playing their uncle looks a bit like Freddy Kruger...
|
Em_J
|
Really?! Gonna have to turn over now anyway, definitely can't stand to watch Eastenders!
|
redwinegoblin
|
No, that's even worse than Narnia!
