What I'm Watching #290

Just finished the third film in this iteration of the Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawntreader. And of all of the books, this one was always my favorite. The movie doesn't disappoint either, but the book remains better. The use of CGI really allows this tale to be told well, as a film. Actor Will Poulter is a fine edition in the role of cousin Eustace, and both Georgie Henley and Skandar Keynes are exiting just in the nick of time in the roles of Lucy and Edmund Pevensie. Playing adolescences has an expiration date.

So I liked it, but I am given to understand that there will be no more in the series to follow. Just not the cash cow that Harry Potter turned out to be.
