So we are just two months short of the 6 Year anniversary of the Netflix deal being announced (October 3rd 2018)....

Hands up who thought we'd be more than halfway done with the entire series by now, rather than still waiting for literally anything to happen? 

Anyway, Netflix have just announced their "Geeked Week" event for September 2024... Surely this has to be the moment when we get something tangible?

Guilty as charged.

To put it in perspective, Disney Plus has released 8 seasons of Star Wars shows since 2019, and 12 seasons of Marvel shows since 2021... At that pace we'd have been done and dusted long ago! 

@icarus Well, thinking optimistically, maybe that means they're taking time to get Narnia perfect. From what I hear through the grapevine, a lot of fans don't like the new Marvel and Star Wars stuff. (Of course, just because something is hated on the internet, that doesn't mean I hate it. If I watched all the new Marvel and Star Wars stuff, I might say that the grumpy fans are crazy. I'm not a big part of the target audience so I haven't watched any of it recently.) 

As a Narnia fan, I really hope that if Netflix continues making 'Narnia' movies, they will take their time to make the adaptations perfect and accurate. I also hope they bring back the original cast because they did an excellent job playing Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy in the Chronicles of Narnia movies. 

Well, I am actually a bit excited that there will be new Narnia films or series yet at the same time kind of bit of a skeptic. You never know how the final product will turn out.

Netflix might do a good job with Narnia (if they'll do it). But then, of course, no company is perfect. Neither the BBC TV series nor the Walden films were done perfectly, but they still have their audiences. So I can't expect Netflix to get Narnia perfectly but I would be happy if they were close to the books for the most part.

Nothing released from the first three days as far as I can tell... But the big in-person event is tomorrow evening, so I guess it's that or nothing!

Fingers crossed!
