New To Theatres This Weekend - May 9, 2008
Well it’s the second week of the summer season, and already people are predicting the first major dud of the year. Speed Racer seems to have been getting a lot of mixed reviews, and the marketing has a lot of people divided, but while I will admit that it’s very possible Iron Man will continue […]

‘Narnia’ Director Prepares To Take A Back Seat For ‘Dawn Treader’ Threequel
There are thirteen directors in history whose films have grossed over $1 billion domestically. James Cameron and Michael Bay were able to do it in seven movies. Peter Jackson took eight. Andrew Adamson, meanwhile, did it in three. So after two “Shreks” and two “Narnias,” who’s gonna begrudge him a little well earned vacation? “I want to […]
There are thirteen directors in history whose films have grossed over $1 billion domestically. James Cameron and Michael Bay were able to do it in seven movies. Peter Jackson took eight.
Andrew Adamson, meanwhile, did it in three.
So after two “Shreks” and two “Narnias,” who’s gonna begrudge him a little well earned vacation?
“I want to do as much as I can from somewhere on a nice beach,” he laughing, telling MTV that his involvement in the third Narnia, “Voyage of the Dawn Treader,” will be largely scaled back. “I am a director, I know what it’s like to have someone watching over your shoulder. I don’t want to be that person to Michael Apted, and I’m really intrigued to see what he brings to the movie.”
Perhaps the change is for the best anyway, conceded Adamson, considering the markedly different tone of the third novel.
“There’s an inherent change,” Adamson admitted.
Yeah, no kidding. “Treader” may read like a cross between “The Odyssey” and “The Knights of the Round Table,” but let’s not kid ourselves – this book is about Jesus. And I say that knowing that they’re ALL about Jesus in some way. If I remember correctly, Aslan even admits he’s Christ at some point - Lewis’ repeated denunciations of allegory be damned.
So, given that, what is Adamson most concerned about keeping in the film? Simple consistency, he insisted.
“I want to make sure that the third film is true to what was set up in [the first and second] films,” he said. “And I think [Michael] is willing to embrace that. He’s a good storyteller.”
I love the Inklings. That’s not really relevant, I just wanted to share. Sound off on “Dawn Treader” below.
