I didn't get that vibe at all. But since that's not something I would ever be okay with, I think I automatically assume no one else would be, either. So if they were trying to stick it in there, I probably wouldn't have noticed/pretended not to notice unless it was right up front. Because frankly, that's ridiculous. The only thing I thought was a little odd was the queen comment. Still, I did not take that as flirting.
And I wouldn't worry about the Georgie/Ben thing, either. I saw the video and took it as playful teasing, sort of like a cousin or a big brother.
As long as there is breath in my body, I will be For Narnia. And for Aslan.
The fashion thing sounds awesome!! She seems to really be enjoying doing things like that! Good Job Georgie!
and it was only one line where Georgie(Lucy) seemed to be flirting with Ben. It was cringe worthy but her "flirting" with him didnt overtake the entire movie (thank goodness!)
NW twin to Georgiefan! NW sib to 22!
avvie by AslansChild thank you!!!
In the leaked script Lucy only had this small crush on Caspian that hardly lasted. Caspian didn't even know about it or had any feelings for her. He was focused on the dreams he was having of Lilliandil.
Georgie looked gorgeous at the Japan premiere. Both her and Ben looked very cute too.
Long Live King Caspian & Queen Liliandil Forever!

220Christian - I would not at all agree with your friend. Lucy feels like she's unimportant compared to Susan, as well as not nearly as pretty, which she wants (ask any girl - pretty natural). The thing with the hair was at the very beginning of the movie when she hadn't met Caspian yet, so it really has nothing to do with it.
I saw nothing at all that would make me think Lucy had a crush on Caspian, so don't worry.
Though I will admit, on my own, from the books and PC, I thought that it would be natural if she did kind of like him. I mean, he mostly ignored her, and she must have felt bad about that. But that was all from my own head, and wasn't because of the way she acted. And in VDT, they do a great job acting like brother and sister.

^ That's where I sort of beg to differ Elanor but I agreed on some parts
I wouldn't say that Susan is more important than Lucy I would say they would have almost the same important effect. In my mind I think Lucy should be the role model to girls more than anything rather than Susan. To me I feel sorry for Susan for the most part and i think others should too. I think since the films came out people get more attracted to who is playing her, how she fights, and how perfect she trys to be rather than concentrating on how much she changed from the stories (She used to be afraid of trying, she felt paranoid to me in the books and a tiny bit in the film LWW but came off as one of the best heroines to me on film) what she is going to become later on in life, it all depends on how the films will do it in LB and HHB.
But I've grown up with the books and story for 20 years now and never once did I look up to Susan, It's always been Lucy and Jill.
I also will admit that for a while I have been a Lucian fan before the films came out when i was more little. So I definitely didn't notice anything if Caspian was to ignore her in the books, he obviously didn't if I imagined that and hated Ramandu's daughter's character for it at one point.
Long Live King Caspian & Queen Liliandil Forever!
Jill+Tirian! Let there be Jilrian!
Sorry if I came out wrong there, Damsel! I totally agree with that first part - Lucy is quite as important as Susan (as well as being as beautiful), but she doesn't think so in VDT.
But we shouldn't get into a discussion about Susan in the Lucy thread.

I no lol, I wasn't offended or anything no, but i meant that they are both equally important it's just I feel people should feel sad for Susan rather than look up to her. It's okay to look up to the actress who portrays her but I think that non readers or people who don't really see the real Susan (and i blame the films because of that) have no idea what is about to hit them with her character change. And I really hope they stick with the books for both HHB and LB so we can see the real Susan.
Don't get me wrong I like her character and all it's just people need to feel sorry for her instead of the complete opposite thinking she's so perfect when she's not.
Long Live King Caspian & Queen Liliandil Forever!

I agree DamselJillPole. Lucy has always been my favorite, with Jill Pole coming in at a close second. I'm mostly a book purist, so I've always found Susan's character bossy, annoying, & whiny. Anna Popplewell seems like a real sweetheart, though. I just hate that they basically gave all of Lucy's positive traits to Susan in the movies. They seemed to have side-lined Lucy's character in favor of Susan in the films, who according to book canon is nothing like how she is portrayed in the movies.
Also just found these & wanted to share. Lucynarnia4ever posted on YouTube 2 clips of Georgie's read through/audition for "The Expatriate."
@Kat: is posting those videos online even legal? I've never seen an audition video for any Narnia cast member on YouTube - or anywhere else for that matter. I'm shocked that the production would allow these videos online for the public to see during the casting process! I think someone needs to investigate...
About the Lucy/Caspian scene my French friend didn't like: what do you think of this film clip on Tumblr? I think he was thinking of this, but I could be wrong. thewardrobe-.tumblr.com/post/3241513477
@georgiefan1: what was the line you thought "cringe-worthy"? I'd love to know.
So that one little clip made your friend think that Lucy had a crush on Caspian? Wow . .
I'm not sure what he was saying there, but I know that kind of look. She was blushing a little, but believe me, girls don't only blush with guys when they like the guy! Again - I wouldn't worry about it, because I did not get that impression in the slightest.

Kat great find! I'm happy to see that Georgie is auditioning for other things! I thought her audition went fantastic and I hope that she gets the part!
I wonder if Aaron Eckhart is playing Amy's father and if so they need to cast Georgie because they really can pass as father and daughter. I got to meet Mr. Eckhart in person in 09 when he was filming Battle: Los Angeles so I can see a tiny comparison to how they can look related.
I really hope Georgie gets this part! It'll really give her acting career a boost.
Long Live King Caspian & Queen Liliandil Forever!

I think they could pass for father & daughter too, DamselJillPole. They both have the same coloring & similar features.
I think the last movie I saw Aaron Eckhart in was "The Dark Knight." He's a pretty solid actor who has had various supporting & lead roles. I think it'd be good for Georgie to be exposed to/learn from other seasoned actors.
It's interesting to see that Georgie's name has come up for quite a few mainstream roles. According to Hollywood.com, she may be in the running & would be an interesting choice to play Katniss in "Hunger Games." I thought I also read somewhere that her name could come up for the new Marvel movie "The Runaways." She seems to be serious about acting & she's getting a lot of buzz in the media as someone to watch.
Regarding the (2) audition clips for "The Expatriate," my guess is that the tapes were released online to generate buzz for the movie & would probably fall under "fair use." Scripts are constantly changing & I doubt that the lines in the two clips will be in the actual finished product. I don't think they're potential spoilers either as anyone who's read the summary on IMDB could guess the overall plot.
Good Luck to her. I've always thought that of the main Narnia cast, Georgie, Ben, & Will P. would have the most viable/successful acting careers outside of the Narnia franchise.
Very cool clips! I though Georgie did a lovely job. And you're right, Kat. Aaron Eckhart could easily pass for Georgie's father. Does anyone have a summery of the movie? I couldn't get the IMDB to pull up right.
As long as there is breath in my body, I will be For Narnia. And for Aslan.
Aron Eckhart will play a former CIA agent who hopes to make a fresh start with his estranged 15-year old daughter. He moves to Belgium to take work as a security expert and one day discovers that his colleagues have mysteriously vanished and a trained operative is intent on killing both him and his daughter.
