I think Edmund and Lucy will have cameos in SC.
here's why:

in the end of VotDT, just as they get back from Narnia, you hear Mrs. Scrubb say, "Eustace! Jill Pole has dropped in for a visit."
then they go downstairs. so Edmund and Lucy would have already met Jill Pole. and Eustace says at the end of VotDT that Edmund and Lucy stayed until after the war. so they were there for quite some time. :D

Do you think that to keep continuity between VDT and SC they will have Jil and Eustace go to Narnia while Lucy and Edmund are still staying there at Eustace's house?

Of the four Pevensies, I am the saddest that Edmund will no longer be a lead in the series (unless HBB gets made and he will have a prominent supporting role).

Do you think that Edmund and Lucy will be going to the same school as Eustace in the Silver Chair?

I dont think they will go to the same school.... and I would think they wouldn't make Edmund and Luct still at Eustace's house when SC happens, the last monolouge of VDT just dpesnt help that idea for me

I would love to see Skandar and Georgie come back in a cameo! They deserve it, they've done such a good job, and if Anna and Will get a cameo in VDT why shouldn't they in SC!!

NW twin to Georgiefan! NW sib to 22!

I wouldn't actually be suprised (or care much) if Edmund and Lucy went to the Experiment House. It would maybe even be nice! After all, Edmund and Lucy are still stuck with the Scrubbs for a few more years, so I think Harold and Alberta could easily choose putting all three in the same place (whether the Pevensie parents like that or not). :D

As for the two appearing at all in SC, that I would love! Maybe it's not necessary, but I think it would be cool and fun! The only places I could see them having cameos though is at the beginning and end of SC (which pretty much means the Experiment House to me). And also, I adore the idea of Jill being friends with them, so I hope this'll happen! ;)

I guess it's because I still can't believe there won't be any Pevensies in SC :P

I do hope they have cameos! :D :D

i definately want to see them in the sc. even if it's only a little bit like peter and susan in votdt. i'm really going to miss edmund. skandar is a great actor and edmund is a deep character. i would be verry happy if he showed up even a tiny bit in sc.

I had no problems with Skandar's performance at all. Quite the opposite: I think he did a great job even though he was given quite cheesy material. To be honest, I even liked the Deathwater scene. Ok, I could have done without the "second fiddle"-quote, but apart from that I liked to see Edmund explode. I think he's so much more likely to get involved in a fight than Peter is (at least in the book).
It seems unfavourable to me that there was this Peter-Caspian conflict in PC because the tension between Edmund and Caspian in VDT lost so much power as a consequence. I didn't like that Lucy ended the conflict instead of Aslan and I can't really see why they did it this way. It would have been nice (and much more powerful) to hear Aslan's voice at least instead of having Lucy telling them that they were tempted.

I did enjoy the relationship between Eustace and Edmund (especially during the bedroom scene and later on the Lone Islands, where Edmund tells Eustace to "guard something" :D).

I also think the Edmund-Lucy relationship was handled pretty well. It does make sense that Edmund is protective about Lucy since Peter isn't there. In additon, his character has changed so much since LWW, where he behaves converse.

What really annoyed me was the whole "white witch temptation"-thing. It's not Skandar's performance, it's just the badly written script. It doesn't seem right for his character development at all. It's rather a step backwards than a development. In my opinion the worst scene for Edmund's character development is during the sea serpent battle when he is standing on the mast. I hated that he didn't turn away from the white witch before his sword starts glowing. So, you don't really know if Edmund would have been strong enough to resist (he WAS in PC, why isn't he in VDT?).

I agree with you that Skander did wonderful in VDT, espesially in tthe Deathwater scene. I also think that the whole White Witch thingy was extra (but then who doesn't). But Skander handled it pretty well! Go Skander :D

It might be a bit to early to talk about this but it's something to ponder for the future. For those of you who don't know they are rebooting the Batman franchise after The Dark Knight Rises. No details have been reported yet since it will be years for it's released but it's possible that Robin will appear in the new films. Is anyone thinking what I'm thinking?

Just an idea

I love Skandar too, he's so cute
At the beginning I didn't like the character, little Edmund but when he was rescued and after he talked with Aslan and his brothers, I started to like because I realized he wasn't that bad as I thought at the first time. I loved his act in the second and third movie. He was awsome :X

Edmund was very protective in Lucy. Even when he was falling into temptation of wealth he thought of Lucy. It was funny though him saying he and Lucy would be so rich. What would theydo? Edmund cna't just have him and Lucy live together without the rest of their family lol

I must say, Skandar did a perfect job of Edmund in LWW and PC. But VoDT, I'm still iffy on it. I've seen Dawn Treader 8 times, to really get a sense of the movie, cast and new plot they added. But what on earth were the writer's thinking, giving Edmund...such childish lines?
I mean Edmund is supposed to be quite mature by now but the conflict between Eustace and Edmund didn't seem "real" to me. Seriously, the line in the very beginning "I found them under your bed, and you know what? I licked EVERY one of them!" Is very un-Edmund like.

Skandar I'm sure couldn't help the fact he had to act out some of these questionable areas, but to make his character arch go backwards? I wonder if he even brought it up to the writers.

Also in the film, they seemed to make Edmund Captain Obvious. Like pointing out the names were crossed out in the slave book on the Lone Islands, or "Oh look there's his sword" kind of thing.
I love Edmund's character don't get me wrong, but the Edmund in Dawn Treader was more like someone trying really hard to "act" like Edmund.
