Narnia

Short Answer: Just finish the series, already

Look, Harry Potter ran out of books, but they kept going. Game of Thrones ran out of books, but they kept going. Even Lord of the Rings ran out of books, but they kept going.

The Narnia series hasn't even run out of books! Why the heck did they stop... going?

As you can see, the public has not run out of interest in fantasy movies. The Hobbits-- well, the actors who played them-- were just at a convention in my town this past weekend, here in 2022. They were so famous, my coworker had to write an essay just to see them.

The Lion, etc. came out in 2005. Prince Caspian, 2008. Dawn Treader, 2010. They have been talking about Silver Chair for a while now. Again, it's already 2022.

There is talk of Netflix rebooting the series, since anyone who saw the original in theaters at, say 15, is 32 now and might even have their own kids. Maybe it will be a series of movies, maybe a TV show. 

Who knows. They've had the rights since 2018. Probably, they will sit on them and prevent anyone from doing anything with them, so as to not distract from the Tolkien prequel they are supposed to drop in September (it's July 2022 now). 

Anyway, Narnia... there are four books still pining on the shelves to be made into movies. The Narnia series is one of the most venerable in the entire genre. Again, the viewers' thirst for fantasy is not slaked. They are even willing to go to the Fantastic Beasts movies! 

Look, 2025 is soon. That will be the 20th anniversary of the first Narnia movie. Just re-release that into theaters, maybe with some touched up CGI with today's improved tech. Then re-release the others, even to streaming, so viewers can catch up, and go from there. Liam Neeson is, thankfully, still around to do Aslan's rumbling voice.

Then make Silver Chair, Horse and His Boy, Magician's Nephew, and Last Battle. Four more books, four more movies. It'll be like printing money.

Speaking of fantastic beasts... dragons have been in for a long time now... where are the Pern movies, already? The novel series started in 1967.
