It's too bad they never got to do The Silver Chair and The Last Battle, as those were the best books.

But now this is a sign that never means never.

The BBC version of The Silver Chair, is an accurate adaptation, though it has a cheesy, children's theater quality that isn't for everyone. There are BBC adaptations of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardobe, Prince Caspian, and Voyage of the Dawn Treader too.

True. As long as you get the Puddleglum speech right, we're good. Greta Gerwig will fuck it up... And probably give the speech to Jill Pole anyway.

What incentives are in place that would end it?

Oh man, I can hear the bitter bullshit ranting about Susan in the conclusion from across the frigging continent.

Why did the Prince Caspian movie fail?

I thought it was Voyage of the dawn treader that failed (I don't even remember watching that film now that I think about it)

wasn't part of the issue that there were some writers strikes as well?

I vaguely remember they wanted the actors to be the right age for their characters as they played them so there was going to be a few years between films anyway (the horse and his boy takes place between the defeat of the white wich and the end of the lion the witch and the wardrobe) but i think the strikes and dawn treader doing bad stopped all that

I remember the 1989 prince caspian BBC TV adaptation being OK (if really low budget and its obvious half the cast are people in fur suits). Never saw wardrobe dawn treader or silver chair though

The Wardrobe TV adaptation (I guess from that same series. Didn’t know it, i.e. the adaptations, was a series, tbh!) is great.

Would highly recommend.

I had somehow completely forgotten that The Voyage of the Dawn Treader even GOT a movie.

It was a terrible adaptation. That's the long and short of it. Prince Caspian wasn't great either, but Dawn Treader had no idea what it was doing.

Yeah, that'll do it.

Though knowing what I know now, I wonder if Dawn Treader was deliberately sabotaged.

Honestly asking. I saw Lion in theaters, and never got a chance to see the second film, so I have no opinion on it.

Hollywood is slowly being starved back into remembering that they are only as good as their last performance, so if the "ubiquitous girls toy as written by feminists" film does not perform, will she still keep the deal?

I think not and point to the violently fluctuating Disney property slate as evidence of my claim. It was fashionable to "girlboss" it up for a time, but the money for such ideologically driven vanity projects is drying up and reality is setting back in.

Why not just make a Golden Compass movie that isn't terrible?

They made a TV series, in case you were unaware.
