I am getting really excited. After the wonderful adaptation of C.S. Lewis's first book The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, I have been anxiously waiting for Prince Caspian to hit the big screen. And now there are only 2 more days to wait.
...
For those of you have had the horrible misfortune to have never read this book, let me give you a quick (spoiler-free) rundown of the story. Narnia has aged 1300 years since we last saw the Pevensie kids re-entering the wardrobe. Caspian is the nephew of King Miraz, and he is line for the throne. He hears stories of the "old" Narnians and is eventually forced to flee the castle. He begins to meet some of these interesting characters such as Trumpkin (dwarf), Trufflehunter (badger), Reepicheep (mouse), and so many more. When all seems to be going down hill, they receive help from some old heroes. The Pevensie kids return to Narnia and join forces with Prince/King Caspian to battle against King Miraz, hoping to free Narnia.
...
I believe this is a 3-hour movie. So get comfortable and head on down to your local theatre to see this new movie that will leave you wanting more. After Friday, I will have to give a quick movie/book review on this one.
...
Now for those of you have read the book. I hear that some minor details have been changed, but they said that only hardcore fans would notice. So it does not sound like it will be anything major. Also, I have heard that the order has been changed, which I feel will make the movie better. Instead of having Trumpkin go into flashback when he meets the Pevensies, they will begin with Caspian's life and lead up to the arrival of Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy.
...
So head on out Friday night and watch The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. And then, in 2 years get ready for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.
