After months of wondering when they were going to start shooting, we now have solid word from producer Perry Moore.  He was speaking to someone at ComicCon who asked when filming would begin, and he was able to confirm that it starts next week in Australia.

Wow, it’s funny how a week can get away from you.  Especially when you’ve got a talkative painter working on your house, and you’re working from home simultaneously.  It’s been a busy week, and people have been informing me about my Harry Potter question from last week.  The interesting thing is that they pointed out some very interesting things.  See the previous mailbag for more details of that.  We’ve also had some very exciting things happening in the way of set photos and things.

MundoNarnia has interviewed Storyboard Artist Mike Vosburg about his work on The Chronicles of Narnia.  He did work on each of the films, including spending about a year working on The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.  He has also spent some time working on Harry Potter as well as Walden Media’s Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D.

Welcome to the mailbag, where we answer fanmail that you send in, over the course of the week.  For those that don’t know, we’ll take your questions, and if we don’t know the answers, we’ll try to get the answers from people that would know.  We might even make something up!  I have a very broad sense of humor, on top of a vast knowledge of film, music and comics with a wide range in taste and a great memory that serves to bring great comparisons or answers to your questions.

Welcome to this week’s mailbag!  With all of the news and excitement from the last week, it’s hard to believe that the Dawn Treader is actually kicking into gear.  We’re getting our third Narnia film, folks, and that is very exciting.

The last two weeks have been some of the busiest weeks I’ve had since re-launching the mailbag.  Last week, in fact, was so busy that I didn’t get a chance to do the mailbag.  I usually do it on Wednesdays, but there was something important that came up last week.  You see, there was a movie that came out that has made nearly a half of a billion dollars worldwide, so far.  Being a child of the 80s, I had to see it.  Twice.  On opening day.  Yes, I am a geek, and no, I don’t recommend this movie for children to see.  But I won’t be reviewing it entirely unless I am asked to write further on it, the film is Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and I loved it.  Not every minute, but I thought it was great overall.

Ben Barnes is a very down to earth guy, and provides a really good example of what he went through on the promotional tour for Prince Caspian.  He mentions New York, where I saw him about four out of the seven days that I was there, and sometimes twice in one day, so I can attest to what he says about his experience there.

It can be hard work being a Hollywood hero. Just ask Ben Barnes, a.k.a. Prince Caspian, star of the billion-dollar-grossing Chronicles of Narnia franchise.
