New Set Photo of the Dragon Cave?
MundoNarnia has a new set photo. We don’t know for sure if it’s for The Voyage of the Dawn Treader or not, but it looks like it could be the dragon cave full of treasure.
They also have some concept art and set photos from an earlier shoot. You can check them all out here.
Thanks to Narniamiss for the heads up!
haha….I have Narnia Web as my home page! lol. π π π
Yeah, Aunt Letty! haha….NO kidding…. π π π
I hope you don't mind me butting in here either….I have only one cent to add though….
You guys all make great points. And I wanted to add to what you said, Aunt Letty. God created us with free will; with choices. Otherwise, we would be robots to Him. We were created for His enjoyment and pleasure. No one gets any pleasure out of a computerized person saying "I love you" one hundred times and going through the motions.
Same thing with love…..You can't force someone to love you. If I went up to someone, put a gun to their head, and said "Love me"….they can't love me. Love is a free will choice, not something that is forced.
And I agree with you Fire Fairy in that it seems as though Susan wasn't on the train so that she would have a second chance. But, I also believe that if you keep rejecting God's call, you will eventually be unable to accept God's gift of Eternal Life. And it isn't that God isn't able to reach you, but that you aren't able to hear God's voice. Yes, He is powerful and strong and mighty and able to make us hear Him, but like I said earlier….He gave us free will and because of that free will, we are able to get ourselves in a jam. Think about Saul in the Old Testament. He was anointed by God and blessed, but when He started to ignore God and his commands, after a while, he was no longer able to hear from God. He went to Samuel but Samuel had nothing for Saul.
I'd like to know what you think about all this…. π
Go Narnia! π π π π π π
Well, you don't know (when it comes to Naiads) because they do have a lot of Minotaurs and creatures like that on the ship. There might be some naiads.
btw….Don't think I would go to someone and put a gun to their head and tell them to love me….I was just using it as an example. I would NEVER do that! Just thought I should clarify….lol
I wasn't saying I think Susan is being forced to be good. Not at all. You guys make very good points, though.
I was more thinking of Susan's situation being compared to the parable of the lost sheep. Didn't the shepherd leave the ninety and nine and go after the one that was lost in the wilderness? That's kind of what I feel like Aslan's doing for Susan. Susan has been lost; Aslan is going after her. Now, the parable never says that the Shepherd forced the sheep to come back with him. I truly don't think Aslan wants to force Susan to come back. That goes completely against his nature. But, if Susan does accept his outstretched hand (paw?), as did the sheep in the parable, then Aslan (the Shepherd) will "bring her home on his shoulders" and He and His friends will rejoice over her return, just as the Shepherd carried the sheep home on his shoulders and rejoiced over their return with his friends. In other words, I feel that Aslan loves Susan very much, and longs for her return, and will rejoice if she does, but He will not force her. Instead, He is providing her with the opportunity (leaving the fold to search for the lamb) to return back to Him.
Yes, I completely agree. And I love that parable. It seems to apply to my everyday life, you know? I fall so many times, but He is right there to pick me up when I fall and carry my on His shoulders.:D
I am getting sooooo excited for this movie! It is going to be great….I can feel it!!!!!!! π
Great conversation, guys. π I agree with all of you and I don't really have anything to add. Regarding PC, I think King Skandar's comment ["However, I think that too much time was spent developing her relationship with Caspian, rather than her relationship with Narnia"] says it all. π
I know, I get on Narniaweb like a million times a day!!! This is the BEST WEBSITE EVER!!!
Yeah This is going to be the best movie ever made in the history of moviemaking… Narnia is the best. I ADORE it and all my friends think I am spooky because I always talk about it and sigh and say how much iI love it and… yeah. They think I'm weird π
it looks a little small for a dragon, don't you think.
it was 1942 when they went back to narnia
Thanks, 220chrisTian π Great comments everybody. I really like the parallels that were made with the parables. I'd never thought of it before like that but it makes perfect sense. That's the whole beauty of the Narnia series; CS Lewis says and portrays such important, essential truths. He illustrates them so that any reader of any age can appreciate them and take them to heart.
I think that CS Lewis left Susan's future kind of up in the air on purpose; I don't think that we are supposed to know for sure. It's just between Susan and Aslan/Narnia, just like our own individual decisions to accept Christ are up to each of us, individually. I feel like Lewis wanted to show that without actually saying, "We can never know what happened." (ahh!!! does that line ring a bell??? anybody?? lucy…aslan…PC…btw they totally killed that line. In the book it actually sounded like Aslan knew what he was talking about, not just being vague like he was in the movie…grr)
By the way, I'm curious: did anybody think of my "name" as showing anything other than me being a Skandar fan? (which I am… π ) We say "long live king.." whoever, but people who have accepted Christ will live FOREVER. Skandar's said that he's an atheist, and so the best thing that I think I can do for him as a fan is to pray for him, that one day he'll see the light and truly accept the gift of eternal life in heaven.
Hear!Hear!I think it WAY to small for loot much less a dragon.How are they going to flim and play the parts at the same time?
At last! Now we get into the part of the film that deals with Eustace, and eventually his meeting with Aslan.
Ah. That explains it. I've never seen LoTR. (I know, it's pretty pathetic).
I like your point, Long Live King Skandar. It's kind of like when Edmund was rescued, and had his little "talk" with Aslan. I love how they don't let you know what was said in the movie. The conversation was between Aslan and Edmund, and no one else.
By the way, Long Live King Skandar, I think that's very sweet of you. I, too, was rather disappointed to find that Skandar is an atheist. It feels like such a waste! Then again, it saddens me when anyone proclaims themselves atheists. A few of my cousins, who were raised Christians, did that very thing. It's rather heartbreaking, really. But then again, my dad does have a saying I really like: "In a time of war or great danger, even the Atheists will turn to some sort of god." Hopefully one day they will all feel it necessary to turn to Christ. We can only love them and continue to pray for them.
Yeah, King Skandar. I have been praying for Skandar as well. I was really sad to hear that he is an atheist. I think part of it might be the fact that his great-great-great…how ever many "greats"… Grandfather was Charles Darwin. Anyway, to think that he (Skandar) seems to be a good person, but that he might miss Jesus is quite sad… π Just keep praying…
And Fire Fairy, you seem to have some awesome bible knowledge! It seems like I will sit down to reply to something and you have already replied exactly what I was going to say! lol. Anyways, this has been a great discussion, and I hope we can continue! π It's kind of funny how all our conversations end up talking about Jesus! It's awesome! π
And also, I really hope that when they put that scene with Lucy and Aslan in the magician's room, that they don't screw that line up again! (the "to know what would have happened is not for you to know" line). It needs to imply that Aslan knows what would have happened but chooses on to tell. In PC, they made it sound like He [Aslan] had no idea what would have happened either. He is supposed to know everything. π
Yay for news π i don't believe it though. the cave looks too small for it to be part of the film. thank god for narniafans.com and narniaweb.com for giving me the lowdown on everything narnian π
I only saw it once a few months ago for the first time. I read the books last summer. I'm no LotR expert! (yet) π Arwen's role is a lot bigger in the movie; she only appears twice in the book that I recall.
No don't change your name Princess Arya, I like it, I like Eragon too(actually I love the books)
Anyone still on?? I soo cant wait 4 the next movie its not my favorite one (actually its pretty low in my list Go HHB!!!)but narnia love has no boundries!! lol
the rumor about having the green witch in it is kinda disturbing tho
What is HHB?
They might film it in a particular way to make it look bigger.George Lucas did that with Star Wars for the space ships and stuff,and I think the same technique can be applied to caves and structures and stuff.
If you are starving I suggest that you eat. π
HHB is the horse and his boy, its ok i was reading some other comments and had to run through the books to remember which one they were
Oh,DUH!!!!I can't believe I didn't know what it was!!!!!Thanks for the info and yes I really want to see a movie made from that book;it is one of my favorites

Thank you all SO MUCH! I've been praying for Skandar since January. His dad's book-turned-movie "Creation" [about Darwin] premiered in the UK last month. And people are preparing big Darwin celebrations in November. π Check out my Facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=117014636287 It's called "Narnia cast and crew: pray!" GOD BLESS YOU ALL! KEEP PRAYING!

I posted this in the wrong place. Sorry! [see 1st pg of comments]
wow that is soo sad that skanders an athiest but mayb working on the narnia movies will help him get saved hes still really young to, pray pray pray!!
Thanks, narniafan4ever <3. I didn't really think I had "awesome bible knowledge", as you put it, but thanks! And I'm glad we're always on the same page! π But, yeah, I'm kind of a nut when it comes to comparing Narnia to the bible. The parallels are endless!! That's probably why MN and LB are my favorite books–they are so close to my personal views on the creation and the end of the world! I would love to hear any opinions and favorite comparisons, if anybody's willing to share. I think the conversations that end up being about Jesus are the best! For Narnia, and for Aslan!!!!
WOW!! That's really sad! I didn't know what they believed in but that is not what I wanted to hear… but thanks for the newes. I will definately be praying!
hey i love your username! im a sam fan! lol! and aragorn fan, and legolas fan, and pippin fan, and gandalf fan, and merry fan, and gimli fan, and eowyn fan, and arwen fan, and faramir fan……im sorry i could go on forever! π
How about we just call you a Lord of the Rings fan! lol I love LOTR, too! π π
Yeah, I didn't see them all until last year. I love them, though. I think they did a good job at staying pretty true to the books. π
But, yes. Arwen's role is a lot bigger than in the books. π
Yeah, no problem! π But it seems kind of like you and me are kindred spirits in a way! I am such a nut too when it comes to comparing the bible with Narnia…. and that is also why I like LoTR as well. And you are so right….the parallels are endless! I am a little nervous in the Magician's Nephew and the Last Battle being created cause I don't want them to mess the whole story up! Same with Horse and his Boy….and the Silver Chair….and the Voyage of the Dawn Treader…..yeah. haha.
Were you part of the discussion, Fire Fairy, where someone asked what a seance was and we ended up talking about the Jesus? It is too funny how whenever Christians start talking, they always end up talking about Jesus. π It is such a comfort to meet fellow sis's and bro's in Christ. π Sail on, Narnia and Aslan!!!!!! π π π π
This is where I hope the producers follow the book more closely in this film.
Remember the last scene, where Aslan talks to the children before they return to "our" world? He tels them to look for Him there. I beleive that Lewis was far more open in his witness in these books than we have seen in the movies thus far.
I too will be adding my prayers. Remember, "Where two or more are gathered together, in My name, there I am also". I beleive that can include the internet as well.
Glad to know I've found a kindred spirit :D. Yeah, I've been a bit nervous about how they do those as well. For me, the most important aspect of MN will be how they do the music. That is going to be very difficult to get right, yet I hope they do!!! And LB, well, there's so much involved with the end of Narnia and all that that they might pass over…they better not!!! I have to say my favorite part in LB is when Tirian goes through the stable door and comes face to face with Tash, and is almost attacked when, "But immediately, from behind Tash, strong and calm sas the summer sea, a voice said: 'Begone, Monster, and take your lawful prey to your own place: in the name of Aslan and Aslan's great Father, the Emperor-over-Sea.'" It just gives me the chills! I also love it when, afterword, Tirian meets the seven friends of Narnia. Since Lucy is my favorite, I even designed a dress for her as Queen Lucy the Valiant when they banish Tash and discover true Narnia! π *Ahem*, but, yeah. I better stop, or this whole comment will be filled with my favorite passages! Anyhow, they better do it right!!!
Sorry, narniafan4ever…I just realized you asked me a question, and I never answered you!! Talk about getting carried away….*sheepish grin*
No, I wasn't part of that conversation…but I wish I had been! I love all of these conversations, especially, as I said before, when we start comparing Narnia to the bible! But, yeah, I better go before I let myself get carried away again… π
Maybe it will only be used for closeups. Or they're not finished building it.
haha….I think he/she was using that term figuratively….lol
haha…that's okay. It is really easy to get carried away….trust me. π I get carried away all the time! It is something I need to get control of….lol But it is okay to get carried away if your talking about Narnia or Jesus, right? π
Yes, yes….the music. That would be hard part to do… Hmmm…how does the book describe it? I need to go back and read that book again. I have been so caught up in this Voyage of the Dawn Treader fiasco that I have been reading the book over and over again! lol. yeah, you can tell I am a Narnia Nut….lol.
I love that scene with Tash and Tirian, too! And it seems as though there is so much speculation as to why so and so made it into Narnia, and why others didn't. But, that is the way it will be in the end-times (which I believe we are living in right now). There will be people who we thought were saved, but then we won't see them in Heaven, while others we will think that there is no way they were Christians when they died…but then they will find they are in Heaven!
I have to say…my favorite scene in this movie (VoDT) is the scene where Eustace (as a dragon) meets Aslan and is told to shed his skin. And I realize that it could be graphic and all, but there is a way to make it not so graphic at all. You just don't really show the first couple times that Eustace sheds his skin…unless it is more like pealing a potato….yeah. But when it comes to Aslan taking it off, they could show Aslan raised up on his hind legs just about to scratch and then….the screen goes black and the next thing you know, you have Eustace back as a boy walking up to Edmund and then they talk like in the book. I think that would probably be the best way to make it without it going over the PG standards…but I thought the scene in PC where Caspain has his sword going into Miraz's neck was maybe a little more than PG would allow…but that might just be me…idk.
Well, as you can see, I got carried away talking about Narnia. See? you are in good company….lol
haha….I seriously laughed out loud when I saw that you had Lucy's dress design all laid out. haha!!! You are such a Narnia Nut! lol π
yah,I know,but I couldn't resist π
I also have been praying for them all. I was telling my Mom yesterday that even though atheist's say they dont believe in God many of them are bitter at him for some reason. The best thing you can do there is to piont out that they are bitter at something that they dont even believe in. Also William, when asked about his religon said "Well…I guess that I believe in God". Which dosn't impress me any because if you think about it, Satan believed in God too. So we should be praying for all of them. Keep the story of Aslan alive!!!
Wow, great discussion, guys!
narniafan4ever:
I looked on a website some time back — I think it may have been IMDB — that described 'Prince Caspian's rating. Do you know the part at the end of the night raid where Edmund is flying on a creature over the castle, and it shows all the dead creatures where the battle was? (*flinches*) It said that particular scene is strong for a PG movie.
Good point, Lutra's Pearl. The key to truly being saved is having that personal relationship with God and Jesus. π
Wow! To me, that is nothing compared to the little blood stream trickling down Miraz's neck when Caspian goes into the bedroom to take revenge….hmm…
Well, that scene plus the one where Peter looks back at all his warriors trapped in the castle made me cry! I cry every time I watch it. And I have seen it like a million times! Okay, not that much…lol…but I have seen it a lot of times. π
Haha…We have kind of taken over half of this page for this discussion! lol. Again, just another proof that we are both Narnia and Jesus nuts! π π π
I meant…the scene where Edmund is flying over the battle field as well as the one with Peter and the trapped warriors made me cry. During the Caspain/Miraz scene, I was cheering for Caspian, but also screaming at the TV trying to get him to just go and get the gate open, and also trying to watch the scene with one eye closed cause I didn't know how bad they might have made that scene as far as graphics go…sorry…that was kind of jumbled and definatly not a good example of grammar…lol. π
I found this very cool thing it is the lamp post paper modal on paperkraft.net and in the search you have to write: Narnia papercraft street lamp!!!!!!!!!!! π π π π π π
The scene where Eustace, as a dragon, meets Aslan is also one of my favorit parts of the entire series. What better picture of salvation that is beyond our own power.
Great dialoge. Keep the witness alive.
Yeah, it's become a habit for me to visit this site several times a day. At least, when I have the time. π
That book is my favorite too. π π π
Yes, Satan and his angels also "believe and tremble" (I think there's a verse in the Bible that says that, but I don't know where). Everyone keep praying for the cast, because with God all things are possible.
Oops…I forgot to add the other website…please check it out.
http://jesus-is-savior.com/Evils%20in%20America/Hellivision/narnia.htm
Yes, narniafan4ever, I am QUITE the Narnia nut. π (And proud of it). π π
Man, a lot has happened over the weekend. I need to get caught up. I must say I agree that the blood trickling down Miraz's neck was a little intense. I could see why they still considered it PG, though, seeing what most PG-13 movies get away with these days. π I don't really think all the dead bodies in that one scene was graphic, though. (Well, it was, but I don't understand why that one was the part that was a "little strong" for PG). The raid was a very moving scene, though. It's still a bit tough for me to watch it (that doesn't keep me from watching it, though!). π
Uh-oh, I've got to run! There's no such thing as taking a quick look on NarniaWeb…
Hey there, again.
I just realized that they took my other comment off…oops.
So, To explain the website I posted…It was just showing how C.S.Lewis's training in Greek myth come through in the books. I still like the books a lot, but I just thought I would post the website for you all to see so that you could be discerning when you read the books. And since we have all been talking about how Aslan seems to represent Jesus an such, I just thought I would post this so that you could see what the characters really represent…But I still think that some of the aspects of the story can be great for witnessing. π
And be careful when you view the website…the material is pretty heavy….just so you know.
And yea, Fire Fairy….It is hard to just spend like a few minutes on Narnia Web…it turns into a few hours very quickly….lol π
