I heard that Disney is working on a second Narnia movie, based on the book "Prince Caspian".
Honestly, I am a little disappointed that they chose not to follow the books in order, because I was totally expecting them to do "the Horse and his Boy" next, because in the order of the book series, that is the book that comes next.
However, I was very fond of the book Prince Caspian, so so long as Disney does a good job with it, and let's the story stay as close too the book as possible--like they did with the "Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe", it should be okay.
Anyway, what does everyone else think of a second Narnia movie coming out?

Haha, that is is order. The Horse and His Boy was the fifth book written.... although it is now chronologically placed as the third book, and it has very little to do with the main plot of Lucy, Susan, Peter and Edmund. Just a bit of trivia there. >.>
I thought the movie was fun, but not very good... a little too watered down and messaged up. However, if they manage to get as far as The Last Battle, I imagine that would change. XP And I'm willing to give them the chance.

Ahhh yeah, I'd forgotten that some of the books were written in a different order than how they are chronologically place now, heh.
Plus it would make sense for them to do the next story that has Peter, Edmund, Susan and Lucy as children soonish before the actors get too grown-up, so to speak, to play the roles.
By the way... I've been totally *dying* to see a movie based on the Last Battle someday. One way or another, that would be awesome :3 I almost wish they would just skip ahead and do that one >.>

I liked Narnia a lot. Though Disney movies don't interest me much anymore, I'll definatly be going to see Prince Caspian. LWatW was pretty good. I liked the witch's outfit during the last battle. She really looked like a lioness.

I just hope Prince Caspian lives up to the standards that the LWatW did. I mean, I hope they do a good job with the story and the acting, and stick to the book. Personally, I love it when movies stay as close to the book as possible, especially if it's one of my favorite series, or one that I grew up with
