Waiting for Caspian
Rather impatiently I might add, not because I am certain that they are going to do a good job, but because I want to see if they do well enough to get to some of the other books which are far more film friendly in my mind.
At any rate, whilst vainly searching for a trailer, I found this fan trailer on Youtube. Now the quality of the visuals, of course, is not extraordinary, but I think most of ideas for the shots and sequencing are pretty good. Best of all the lines are delivered with such strength that they make the piece. Plus, the acting is pretty good too. Here it is. Enjoy. It all seems to me like some thing that young Wachsmuths and Badenochs (if you know them, I'm sure you're smiling) might put together, and that is a compliment in both directions.
It looks like PrinceCaspian is having fun learning to work with a camera and developing ideas in his head. I am not a film person, but it seems like there is potential here, if for no other reason than the effort these took to make, though I think there is more than that. See particularly "Love Thy Neighbor," "Freedom From Me," and "Wood and Lizards." The age on the profile says 37, so I am not sure if a father is shooting these or the principle actor, and that that is just a fake age.

Do we know when Caspian is coming out? Around Christmas time again?
