Just in time for Christmas 2005, Disney will release "THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE". Click here for the website.
If the movie proves successful, you can just imagine the wonderful rides and/or lands that could be wrapped around this theme. Animal Kingdom perhaps?
The trailer can be found here
The voice of the fox is Rupert Everett
You can see the entire cast list here
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes.....

My mom is a big fan of the books. I guess I have to add it to my list of books to read this year.
The trailer looks incredible. A mythology based land at AK would definitely help AK steer away from the zoo stigma. The beauty of AK would only be enhanced by the addition of this type of land.
The theme could be used to tell the stories behind the mythology of the more famous creatures (unicorns, minotaurs, cyclopses, dragons and the like). Just as long as they keep the beauty side of it intact, it will be fine. Toon it up like Disney's version of Hercules, and it may be a total flop. I like Disney's Hercules, I just don't think that AK should stay away from anything more toonlike.
Anything listed on the park maps as an attraction is fair game for inclusion in the Rally.
I cannot confirm nor deny the inclusion of any attraction in the Rally.
May the Gumballs Be with You...Always.
I agree. It would be a nice replacment for Beastly Kingdom.
I love these books! If they start making attractions from the stories I will most definitely have to make my way to Florida.

If you go defiantly, I want to go with you! I'm always doing stuff defiantly...ask my husband...:devil:
They have all the books on DVD at Barnes & Noble for $125 or so?I've never read the Narnia books
I can't wait for this movie to come out in Dec 2005. I was watching the Movie Surfers on the Disney channel. They will go behind the scenes and talk to the cast & crew when it closer to Dec.
My spell checker sucksThanks for pointing that out
Sorry we haven't got to *D* yet in our lessons! :devil:My spell checker sucks
I adore the Chronicals of Narnia books. What I dislike about the books is the religious meaning behind the books. I wonder what sort of interplay there will be between families that treasure these books and those who have been figiting to restore the religions meanings C.S. Lewis intended - especially with Disney at the helm?
This looks like an awesome movie.
