Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a little bit of Narnia to hold you over until we all get to see the sucker next month. I was lukewarm on the production until I saw the first trailer. That first trailer didn't ease my fears, just enhanced them. I was worried (and still am) that the film wouldn't find its own identity and just ape from others. However the combination of that second trailer and the footage I saw at Comic-Con and the extended footage I saw at Fantastic Fest really has me excited for this movie.
The Comic-Con footage proved to me that the effects were being balanced well and that the kids seemed to be having a ball during the video Q&A, but it was that Fantastic Fest footage that got me. They focused on character and I got to see these kids act and they each nailed their individual characters. Especially the kid playing Edmond. He's got a fantastic journey (filled with darkness and light) in the movie and I can't wait to see him take it.
Holy crap, I'm being long-winded. Sorry 'bout that. What I'm here to show you folks is a link over to those great guys at Soundtrack.net who have a review of the Narnia soundtrack with a 30 second preview of each track. I don't know about those "inspired by" songs at the end, but I really liked what I heard of Harry Gregson-Williams' music, especially tracks 1, 3, 8 and 9. Track 9 might be my favorite (it's called To Aslan's Camp). Click below, then come on back and let me know what you think below!
