see I think cs lewis would be on board with rock n roll-ified narnia... whatever that means. like, this is the guy who said to his readers to make fanfictions about what happened to susan after the series. he wrote jesus and santa and dionysus co-existing in the same setting. there's a lamppost purely to annoy tolkien.
and I mean, I think greta gerwig can make a good narnia movie, but like... saying "it's all about rock n roll" doesn't come across as genuine but instead comes across like saying, "narnia is brat." like what are you saying. what does that mean. give me something to put my confidence in here
#mine musings#narnia#now if she makes it a musical i'd love that#tbh she can rewrite whatever she wants but i just need her to nail edmund and lucy right#you can rewrite peter and susan. if you're going for other books you can rewrite eustace or jill or diggory or polly or whoever#but in my humble opinion. as long as you get edmund and lucy right then you get narnia right#because everything that is quintessential about narnia can be condensed to just those two (and how they relate to each other and aslan)#and like if you get them right everything else will follow. imo!!#i remember i was actually mad about the changes the last prince caspian movie did to peter but now i kinda like it tbh#though to me peter is like. a combination of book and movie#oh actually you know what greta gerwig can do#a golden age movie... that would actually be really fun#i don't think she'll do it but like. i think she should#THAT will be a new take without rehashing the books
