I thought they referenced Ramandu because they didn't know what else to call Ramandu's Island. Given the way things carry out in the movie, it should have been called Lilliandil's Island, Star's Island, or Aslan's Island or something that made more sense.

In the movie, Lilliandil felt like Coriakin 2.0...all she did was show up for 5 minutes, add a bit more detail to the explanation of the green mist by Coriakin, and catch Caspian's eye due to her surreal beauty.

Their adaption of these characters is on par with the way they adapted the rest of the book...all the backstory and explanation surrounding them is axed and replaced with some sort of connection with the green mist. I felt it was way too brief.

It is disappointing that the final film is basically a more vague version of the leaked script.

This makes me feel so disappointed. I wan't more Caspian/Lilliandil! Is this still screening talk or this this the final film?

I will say the leaked script did do a better job at developing the relationship between Caspian and Lilliandil.

Especially with Caspian having dreams about her, and the fact that it's indicated that he will return to Ramandu's Island.

Is the infamous "I can change forms" line in the movie and is as cheesy as it looks in the trailers?

Yes and yes.

Honestly that whole scene was blown out of proportion. And other then saying "No!", Edmund doesnt show any romantic interest in Lilliandil. Yet another example of misleading marketing.

Definitely. It was at the end of the day just a simple one-line joke. It didn't lead into any sort of romantic plot thread for either Edmund or Caspian. Though perhaps in the case of the latter it probably should of done.

If the moment had any significance beyond just being a funny joke to stick in there, it was perhaps a nice moment to round off Lucy's character arc about her insecurities over her appearance. The way she rolled her eyes at the boys reaction was kind of her way of showing to the audience that she had conquered her inner demons and that she was now able to rise above such petty issues.

So they don't show her any more after their first meeting at all??

As bad as the lame use of Ramandu's Daughter was in the leaked script, at least it would have meant the Ramandu's Daughter/Caspian romance would have been developed. As it is, it sounds like they could have cut her completely from the film with little lost.

It's not fair that they give a non existing and made up couple more screen time then an actual romance that takes place in the books. I'm really upset about about this and a lot of other Caspian/Lilliandil fans will be too!

Lilliandil was slightly creepy- my older sister even asked me, during the film, if she was really an evil character. Now that would have been a plot twist and major deviation from the book.

So they don't show her any more after their first meeting at all??

Yes. She appears in the movie for about 5 minutes.

I think the way they conceived her character (costume, they way she was lit up, the whole 'blue star' idea) was lovely, but like many other things in the film it was barely used :/
The ONE thing I thought the movies could possibly improve on the books was to extent the casp/lilliandil (I do like her name, kudos gresham!) romance a little...though in PC I started to despair this would be the case :/
as it is, she is given a very very short about of screen time, a minor role, and there is no romance to speak of.
my reaction ->

^ then why would Ben Barnes say inan interview that there will be romance in VDT? It doesn't make sense.

Did Caspian even glance back at Ramandu's island when he left it or even mention lilliandil in the least?
