Aslan is on the move...

As Star Wars "Episode III: Revenge of the Sith" opened this weekend, it featured the trailer for the upcoming film "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe," (LWW) from C.S. Lewis' 7-book series "The Chronicles of Narnia," coming out December 9th. Walden Media is producing, who also put out such family-friendly movies as "Holes," "Because of Winn-Dixie," "I Am David," and the upcoming "Charlotte's Web" with Julia Roberts as the voice of Charlotte. The trailer alone is awesome, and I can't wait to see the completed product this Christmastime. The Chronicles will be the 7-year replacements for "The Lord of the Rings" Trilogy, IMHO.

Update: It has been announced that there will be 4 different soundtracks released for this movie--a film score soundtrack, a Christian artists album, a rock and pop album, and a children's album--in order to appeal to a larger audience. Find soundtrack information here.
