Can I quickly mention one thing about the wise mind argument that has been brought up in other debates?
Okay so people say while Lucy's body is young, her mind is old.
People said in PC when Peter was having issues they said he was acting like a teen, not a grown king.
Well, while the Pevensies may remember being grown adults back in Narnia, and while they had matured mentally...when they went back into their kid/teen forms, there minds picked up a lot of those hormones, impulses, and mindsets that take place during that age. Its just eh way the brain at that age works. There memories from living as adults remain...but the way their minds act arent the same as they were when they were all grown up.

Agreed Josh,
And decarus who said anything about the undragoning of Eustace being messed up? Were you thinking that or just using and example?
One question I want to ask is that people are saying that the super trailer is 5 minutes long but how can these few scenes fit into that five minutes or does a speech count in it all?

I was just using that as an example. They just haven't gotten hardly any of the stuff about Aslan right in the last two films, so i don't know if they will start getting it right now. I hope so. That is my only hope and probably one of the things that is least likely to be correct.
There are no clouds in the sky. There is only the open sun and the Lord watches.
I'm going to have to disagree on that decarus, but we have a new team now with a more experienced director who has obviously been in the film industry longer then Adamson. I trust Apted and Mark Johnson's interviews of wanting to bring the magic of the real stories back to Narnia starting with this film.
I know how you feel, I sometimes have my thoughts of doubt for this movie too but I think it'll be fine.

Considering the screenwriters are still the same, I agree with dec.
And not that any new screenwriters would give hope either, considering the leaked script was by one of the "new" ones, Stehen Knight.
Again disagreed.
The director makes decisions on whether to keep a material or not in the script, therefore a script supervisor can change anything to please the directors wishes, or the director can take over completely. It doesn't matter who writes the script. It can be changed around.

I could rant forever about how I don't like the fact that Eustace calls his mom,''Mother'' instead of '' Alberta'', but I won't. I will just tell why I dislike it in 2 simple points.
1. I am worried that this will make most of the audience think he is a ''Momma's boy''. Which he is not. He is or was before he changed a tattle-taler. There is a huge difference.
2. His parents doesn't seems as weird, and he doesn't either.
^ The impression i got from the report, at least from the commentary that Devin Brown provided at the event, was that it was a deliberate choice for him to call her "Mother" at this point, as it showed that in a moment of genuine fear, Eustace reverted to a more child-like behaviour and instinctively called out for his Mother instead.
Im assuming therefore that there would be earlier moments in the film in which he would refer to his parents as "Harold and Alberta" so that the audience later understands how unusual it is for him to call her "Mother" at this point, and maybe for a split second it would allow the audience to catch a small glimpse beneath his initial pompous exterior and develop some slight early sympathy for his character.
Okay that makes sense icarus
I was beginning to get a little worried about that too if Eustace wasn't going to call his parents by their first names. you made it sound better

As far as the length of the super trailer is concerned, I didn't actually time it. That's just the estimate that Dr. Brown gave us. I wouldn't deny that it's probably a bit shy of five minutes, but it was definitely longer than your run-of-the-mill trailer.
As for the matter of Ramandu's daughter, the glow inside her body is bright and kind of hard to miss, but there's no reason to think that the glow is permanent. It could easily fade at some point (the moment we see her in the trailer, it's implied that she has just come to meet the crew, so I'm betting the glow does fade at some point).

At what center of Lilliandil's body is glowing? It could be a necklace she is wearing or it is in fact that they made her full star.

I don't quite understand. Was all this seen in a SECOND trailer? A different one from the one we've all seen? When will this second trailer be available for us to watch??
This was a promotional "super trailer" that has been shown privately at a handful of events around the country. It is different from the trailer that came out a few weeks ago in front of Toy Story and online. It's longer than the trailer we've all seen.
I doubt it will become available to the public anytime soon. Then again, who knows? If I remember right, there was a Lord of the Rings super trailer released at some point, but I'm pretty sure that was after the films had already come out in the cinema.
So you might see it, you might not. My guess is not. But come December, it won't matter!
