Everyone knows its very foolish to shut oneself inside a wardrobe

[rohan.girl]

this is totally random, but did anyone pick up on the fact that lucy never completely shuts the wardrobe door in the movie? sorry i just though it was funny that they kept that true to the book

[stronger_WM]

Hehe yeah well I saw the movie before I read the book, so I read the book directly after seeing it and I was pleasantly surprised that they kept some of the little details like that. And then its stupid Edmund who shuts it :p

[Special_K]

I noticed the thing about shutting the door as well after seeing the movie! **** they did a good job with that film!

[Corin Thunder-Fist]

Yeah, it's funny but I did watch for that as I was watching the movie.

Of course, they changed the story of Lucy's first 2 entrances into the Wardrobe...but the bit about not closing the door, and Edmund closing it foolishly they left in.

Makes me think they may be able to think up some way to keep Eustace's diary entries in Dawn Treader if that movie is made.

did you know that whilst making the film, skandar got trapped inside the wardrobe! he started to panic, but before he got really worried he closed his eyes and remembered that he wasnt edmund penseive but skandar keynes and ordinary school boy from london! the crew then got him out and fixed the wardrobe!! i read that in an interview!

[kirke]

i never noticed that... thats very clevar, not to mention how funny pretty in pinks post is about skandar getting stuck :P

[PrinceOfTheWest]

Notice that Peter doesn't shut it completely, either. He, too, knows about wardrobes.

That's an interesting detail about Skandar and the wardrobe.

[kirke]

poor edmund... everyone else knows not shut themselves into a wardrobe... how did he make it so many years in narnia :P i bet he had to be taken care of the whole time :)

[cathyrh]

yeah, i liked that part... not many movies have such cute little details xP

good one p_p_p, heres another one!
i read that susan (william told it) that while they were filming the ice breaking scene, it was water splashing around them, and susan always walked over the holes where the water came from, so she always got wet, and (sorry for her, but lol anyw) she had a skirt on xP

[kirke]

haha thats soo funny

[pretty_in_pink]

talking about cute little details did you see mrs. beavers sewing machine?!!

[cathyrh]

no.. lol. i don't think so. have just seen it once though.

i feel sorry the beavers didn't get any christmas presents:(

[pretty_in_pink]

aww i know. In the books didnt mrs. beaver want to take her sewing machine with her?! In harry Potter they had a programme for the quiddich world cup that had sponsorts adverts the order etc. in, and they didnt even show it properly in the film! I love the way the directors like to have every single tiny detail to make it perfect! It just finishes it off doesnt it?!

Exactly! In some interview Will said that the detail in the beavers' house was amazing because there was so much detail that we didn't even see. Like the toys for her family, shoes, etc.

[pretty_in_pink]

i read that interview too!!

[cathyrh]

Yeah, I know, it's so cute. Mrs. Beaver, yeah, she wanted to bring her sewing machine, and everything, but Father Christmas fixed her house, but not in the movie though... well,well. xP

Like u said ppp, they don't have many details i HP, and especially in the 4th film. I was a little disappointed.

[cathyrh]

where can u find it? don't bother if u don't remember!

[love4you]

thats interesting... well its good to leave it open, the door of course, because they could have those locks, that can look you inside. so ya. well ya.

[Rhyanidd]

awww poor Anna and Skander!! but that is freaking hilarious!!!

[~I<3Skandar!~]

I feel really dumb now cuz i never knew that...I probably would have done the same thing and shut myself in. :p stupid closets!

[~Rogue~]

Silly Skandar. I've only ever shut myself in a wardrobe once but it was a huge one and there were 4 people in there already during a game of hide and seek.

[pretty_in_pink]

actually, now i think about it, in the book doent lewis go on a bit about how silly it is to shut the door ater you as you wouldnt be able to get back out! sorry if that has already been said and i didnt realise!!

[Lenny]

this is quite irellavant (however you spell that!) but did you know that Edmunds legs are played my Anna when you only see his legsin the wardrobe? Because he went home, so Anna volunteered to do that scene and wore his socks etc.
If this has already been said i appollergise! :P

RE: Skandar getting locked in the wardrobe and Anna stepping over water jets

If I didn't know better, and I do know better, I'd say that Lewis himself was having a bit of fun during the production. Edmund locking himself in the wardrobe and Susan being "all wet" is just his kind of humor. He enjoyed pranks like this when he was alive.

I noticed that also! I wish they would have pointed that out in the movie tho!

[mrstumnus99]

Yeah I saw that too! I was so happy they put it in!

[DeplorableWord]

actually, now i think about it, in the book doent lewis go on a bit about how silly it is to shut the door ater you as you wouldnt be able to get back out! sorry if that has already been said and i didnt realise!!

Ya, and I was thinking- I wonder if Lewis ever had a dramatic experience of locking hmself in a wardrobe to have "never lock yourself in a wardrobe" stressed so much in the book!

And yes I noticed how Lucy didn't shut the Wardrobe door all the way- I was actually looking for that as I watched the movie.

[unleavened]

I was glad they kept that part. Just one of those little, but satisfying things!

[A_childs_imagination]

do you have a link or anything to those interviews about skandar and anna
