The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
Lines:
They aren't "young" in Horse, though. They're old enough to have Peter thinking of having Susan married.
But really, they need to do them in the order they're doing them in before Lucy and Edmund age too much. When they get to Eustace and Jill, their age will also have to be reasonable, because those two will age quickly, too. The only thing I'm worried about is doing Horse and Nephew before Last Battle, as all 6 are in that one at one point.
Boro_Bandito:
If they were really worried about going in order they would've made The Magician's Nephew first, now wouldn't they? Anyway, I think one of the cool things about this series is that it isn't just about one set of characters throughout the entire thing. C.S. Lewis was able to pull of switching focus not just on different characters, but drastically different eras. He Pulled a Tarantino style nonlinear editing job 20 years before the damn bastard was even born, and on a set of children's books! *James Lipton's voice* "Brilliant."
Surgoshan:
The Magician's Nephew will probably be the most difficult to make into a movie. It would certainly be impossible to make it into a film that can stand on its own. Virtually everything that happens in the story requires a lot of narrative explanation (the rings, how they work, that Uncle Andrew can't understand the animals), and everything of importance is basically just backstory to LWW. Why the wardrobe is a portal, where the white witch came from, why only humans can be king or queen in Narnia, where the lamppost came from, etc.
axerton:
I think most of that could be explained easily enough through dialogue, nephew's major problem as far as making it a movie goes is there is no epic battle scene, and it's not even much of an adventure story, it just doesn't fit with the other five in terms of style.
Lines:
That would be a lot of explaining, though, so it's easier and truer to the series not to do it first. But anyways, I like that they're going in the order they are. When they're all complete, then the order can be switched around.
