The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

[Jack Skellington]

Surprisingly it's the Sex and the City movie that's making it harder for Prince Caspian, honestly who'd pay for that s**t with SJP ! Moviegoers these days...

Mrowr! Someone needs a cosmo.

I don't think Sex and the City is taking much of Prince Caspian's box office. After all PC is a family movie, SatC is a R rated movie.

The movies that made Prince Caspian suffer are both Iron Man and Indiana Jones 4.
As of this weekend Iron Man is still making more money then Prince Caspian.

[Marianne81]

It's such a shame that Prince Caspian seems to be getting lost amongst films like Iron Man and Indy 4, especially since it's such a great movie. I personally loved it, and also enjoyed it more than Indy 4.

I hope this doesn't put future films in jeopardy from being made. I'm hoping now that many kids are finally off from school that the ticket sales might improve a bit.

It is disappointing. I actually saw it twice in theaters. If anything, they should have released it a week or two before Iron Man, so the summer season would have been kicked off earlier.

I hope the next installment's release date is more well thought out.

[Mouseketodd]

I really enjoyed 'Prince Caspian,' and plan to see it again. And, I hope that Disney will make the books into films beyond the slated 'Voyage of the Dawn Treader.'

It may end up with $140 million

December 2, 2008

3-Disc Collector's Edition DVD ($39.99) which adds a loaded-sounding Disc 2 (including bloopers, deleted scenes, and 9 featurettes) plus a DisneyFile digital copy on Disc 3

1-disc DVD ($29.99 SRP) with an audio commentary from director Andrew Adamson and unspecified actors

2-Disc Blu-ray ($35.99 SRP) with all DVD extras (except for the digital copy) plus exclusive BD-Live and "Circle Vision Interactive: Creating the Castle Raid"

3-Disc Blu-ray ($40.99 SRP) with the digital copy and everything else. All four editions will present the feature in 2.40:1 widescreen, with Blu-ray supplying a pair of Dolby 7.1 tracks in English

The cover art for this is not bad at all! I'm looking forward to being able to see the movie again.

[PeterPanfan]

So that means two discs of bonus features, PLUS the Digital Copy? That's great! And the cover art remind me of the two disc The Spiderwick Chronicles, for some reason.

[jrboy]

So that means two discs of bonus features, PLUS the Digital Copy?

Disc 1 - movie
Disc 2 - special features
Disc 3 - digital copy

[PeterPanfan]

Well, there are probably a few bonus features on disc one, so that's why I said two discs.

[Simba3]

I really love the cover art, I think it's beautiful. I will definitely be picking up the 3-Disc DVD for my collection.

[jrboy]

Ok, I see what you were saying now

[Disneykid]

I really like the cover art, even though: a) it's obvious they're trying to tie it into The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe with the cold, icy blue color scheme, and b) it doesn't match any of the editions of LWW.

I'm glad to see that it'll have meaty features. I was afraid that with the disappointing box office, Disney would relegate this to a paltry slate of supplements. I guess the inclusion of deleted scenes means there won't be an extended edition like the first film's (unless Disney's holding back footage for a future cut the way WB has obviously been doing with Harry Potter). Hopefully the 9 featurettes run at least 10 minutes or so each. Since I find Digital Copies to be an utter waste of space, I'll be picking up the 2-disc BD rather than the 3-disc. The only way I'll pick up the latter is if it somehow has more supplements, but I doubt it.

[supertalies]

Sorry to ask this, but what is DisneyFile?

[jrboy]

Sorry to ask this, but what is DisneyFile?

DisneyFile = digital copy

[rs_milo_whatever]

to me, a digital copy is pretty much useless; I see myself buying the 2-Disc Blu-Ray.

[Escapay]

I'm glad to see that it'll have meaty features.

Ditto. Though I hope it doesn't end up like the POTC3 DVD. A third of their featurettes were puff-pastry flufferettes and some of the better bonuses were on the BestBuy exclusive disc.

Hopefully the 9 featurettes run at least 10 minutes or so each.

Ditto again!

I'm hoping that the 9 featurettes will follow the bonus features set-up on LWW. A 40-odd minute documentary from the director's POV, a 25-30 minute documentary from the cast's POV, several various mini-features about VFX/music/creatures/etc., and "Anatomy of a Scene" featurettes.

The exclusion of trailers is unforgiveable (well, maybe not, but given that I'd prefer a film's trailer over a film's deleted scene, however good or bad that scene may be...). I didn't mind it so much for LWW since it was on the bonus DVD in the CD soundtrack. But since Prince Caspian's soundtrack didn't include a bonus DVD (though the trailer is available on the CD, I think. I held off on buying the CD, hoping a CD/DVD combo would be released like LWW.), I was (vainly) hoping that the trailers would be on the DVD release.

I just wish the two-disc DVD was available without the Digital Copy as that's just one more disc than I need, though if it's packaged in a three-disc amaray, I can junk the Digital Copy and replace it with the soundtrack.
