As many of you may know, our fearless webmaster, Paul is currently on vacation and cannot respond to the mailbag. However since he’s been gone, the mail has piled up on the kitchen counter here at NarniaFans. After cleaning out the fridge, I figured I’d hold up some of your letters to the light and see what you all sent in and answer for him.

From Skandar Keynes’ official website:

Skandar is still at Cleveland. But instead of being on the magical Dawn Treader Edmund is filthy,  bruised and finding himself in another dungeon. Sound familiar?

John Burkitt has been working tirelessly to bring back the Narnia Fans Podcast, and NarniaFansCast: Episode 45 is the fruit of that labor. Ephinie and Inkling discuss Voyage of the Dawn Treader with host John Burkitt (EveningStar) after a long hiatus.  Inkling’s pet non-mod (I mean “husband”) was in on the discussion and made some great remarks but his audio track could not be salvaged.  Followed by an original Byron on Wells story “The Usual Date.”

His debut as the eponymous royal in the second Narnia movie, 2008’s Prince Caspian, helped the film to rack up over $400 million at the box office, and he will now reprise the role in the adaptation of Lewis’s third book in the series, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Prince Caspian and all the stories from the Chronicles of Narina are some of the most beloved children’s stories and the movies have recently become major motion pictures and blockbuster hits. The movies’ producer and Lewis’ step-son Douglas Gresham visited FOX 35 to talk about how Lewis has influenced his life, both through his writings and as an adopted member of Lewis family. He also mentions that he’s just come from the set of the Lone Islands from The Voyage of the Dawn Treader in Australia, and that he hopes to make all seven books into films.

This week has been flying by.  I just remembered that it was Thursday, and that I hadn’t written this week’s mailbag.  So I’m spending lunch time writing this week’s installment.  I spent Tuesday riding roller coasters at Cedar Point, and around that day there were some really huge things happening in the world of Narnia.  The third film started shooting, and we’ve gotten some great photos of the Dawn Treader nearing completion.  I’ve got a couple of e-mails to answer this week, but before I do, I just wanted to give a status update on the secret project.  I’m currently working on speed issues on it, but it’s moving forward.  I have guests up from Florida so it’s going to take me a little longer than I had initially anticipated, but I hope that it’s worth the wait.

And a quick update on Chesterton’s The Everlasting Man that just came in from a woman named Barbara:  “C.S. Lewis’s appreciation for Chesterton’s The Everlasting Man in correspondence is well known. Tolkien borrowed the idea for Ents from Chesterton’s The Trees of Pride!  I hope these facts were brought to your attention.” Thanks Barbara!
