Be warned though. It is very image heavy, so it will take a long time to load the webpages. If you're a true Narnian fan I'm sure you can wait it out!
Yes, the wallpapers are great! I've got the battlescene one at the moment.

For some reason, I wish it weren't Disney producing it.

But who knows. They did a pretty awesome job on Pirates of the Carribean (Their first and only pg-13 movie if I'm not mistaken.)

With it being produced by Disney, I have one question: What do you think this movie will be rated? I can easily imagine some of the Narnia battles and characters, if done properly, earning the movie a PG-13 rating. Honestly, that's what I'm hoping for. The last thing I want is for them to shy away from making Narnia as emotionally heavy as is necessary for the sake of hanging onto a Disney-esque PG rating.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

For their one trailor for Mulan Disney used music from the original "Dragonheart" movie while X-Men's original trailer used music from "Dark City". It's a recurring trend in promotional material.

Yeah, I guess so. But I imagine there might be a substantial difference between a child reading Narnia and a child seeing Narnia.

Even if we do depict battles non-graphically, there are necessary plot elements like [spoiler]the death of Aslan[/spoiler] that MUST be in there. I just hope they don't shy away from anything for the sake of pleasing the MPAA.

Disney market it, its actually Walden Media (a Christian company) that is making it, along with Weta Workshop.
The Chronicles are for children but the latest Harry Potter almost got an M rating here in Australia, until there was protesting by people. The battlescenes are over in seconds in the books, but onscreen they need to be visualsed and that's why it may end up with a PG-13 in America. But I don't see it getting an M rating in Australia. The movie should be awesome.

Wow... gorgeous site... >.>; But really, how do they expect a person with dial-up to view their site? I have cable, and it took me about a minute until the doorknob opened up.
