Good review of it Winged. But I think it's those problems that you mentioned that will not bring SC :( Good review! Glad you enjoyed it :)

Yes, well apparently a lot of critics think it's the best movie out of the three. Not sure if I agree, but still, it counts for something. So there is a chance of SC still, I think. Also because SC is a lot more filmable, so they can stick closer to the book and satisfy both bookverse fans and movie fans.

I think I agree with most of your points here, especially about the humor/comedy bits (which I didn't mention in my own review but loved).

As for Edmund and the Sea Serpent -- I also thought he had quite an active imagination! :-) But I could see it making sense given the types of books the Pevensies would read. Thinking about it now, by having him picturing the Serpent as his worst fear, it shows that he's learned from his time with Jadis and that the Witch would NOT have been what he feared most.

Eustace going from Aslan's Table to the water -- yes! How the heck was he supposed to do that? That made no sense.

And Ben Barnes' accent I was fine with and did not notice once he started speaking but that's because we all knew it would be dropped. Also, I've been watching a few movies with him in it lately so it just naturally transitioned over.

Yes, the humour was so very well done in this.

Oh - I like how you say that, about Edmund knowing that Jadis is not his worst fear. Especially since the green mist was using her to "haunt" him. I really, really like that thought.
