Walden Media have not only bought the Rights to the entire series, but are already listed as "In Production" for the first movie in the series; The Lion, The With & The Wardrobe.
I am actually really upset that I didn't catch this earlier -- I would make a great Aslan voiceover :(.
Speaking of, they're also trying to put _Ender's Game_ into a movie. Worse, they're trying to combine _Ender's Game_ and _Ender's Shadow_ into one book. Now--I'm sorry, but am I the only person alive who thinks this is a really, really bad idea? Especially when you consider how things have been going with Star Wars and the Matrix? I mean, bloody feckin' hell, Pirates of the Carribian is by far a better movie than Attack of the Clones, and guess which one got a smaller budget?
I find this dissapointing, the Narnia series I always envisioned as a book to remain a book. BUT at least now when I reffer to someone being gay and not knowing it ("he's so far back in the closet he's in Narnia") maybe people will understand what I'm talking about.
Yeah, so shut-up, Lex. Why don't you go try out for that new series with the Scottish character that we all know about? You know, that one that, uh, stars a thicket of heather being eaten by a grouse.
