Anna Popplewell is one extremely intelligent girl. Meeting her in New York last year was pretty intimidating, even though I’m a bit older than she is. And now she’s doing her part to raise money for a good cause. She writes:
I am not athletic! However, I am going to attempt to be athletic on 26th April 2009 and run the London marathon in order to raise money for an extremely worthy cause. Shelter is a brilliant charity that targets homelessness in the UK and, particularly homelessness amongst children. One in seven children in Britain are either homeless or living in either overcrowded or poor conditions, and nearly 1.7 million households are on waiting lists for a social rented home.
AICN runs a marathon viewing of movies that runs for a 24 hour period once a year, and each year they get sneak peeks at movies that are sometimes still in production, and others that are soon to come, along with trailers and behind the scenes for movies that are coming much much later. This time, they were treated to a behind the scenes clip from Narnia. Apparently the Minotaur stood out as the centerpiece of what they saw.
(Clip): The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. This was mostly a behind the scenes look at the WETA progress being made on the design of the film. Some of the creatures looked frighteningly similar to LOTR while the Minotaur stood out as an exceptionally cool design…..
…..The minotaur from THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE looked photo-real. Nice.
