I just read Prince Caspian this last week, and today saw a picture from the new movie. Not sure who the person was with Edmund, Peter and Susan, I checked IMDb and it really is Caspian in the picture. But...unless I read wrong, isn't Caspian way younger in the book? Like young teen at best? He's played by the guy from Stardust, who I'll admit I thought was pretty cute when I saw that. Still, it seems wrong for Caspian to be 26 years old.

A friend lent me Jane Eyre with Samantha Morton and Cieran Hinds. This is the fourth version I've seen, whenever I finish watching it. It's not nearly as bad as 2 of the other versions, but this one I couldn't finish in one sitting. One positive is that finally, I see a Rochester who really is unattactive in personality. However, they made him like Adele right away, which isn't right. Also, speeding through Jane's childhood in 12 minutes? Hmm, yeah. 2006 Jane Eyre is so much love.

I haven't seen Prince Caspian yet, but Caspin is suppose to be 13 years old in the book (the same age as Susan). He's 16 in Dawn Tredder.

My mother saw the new film -- she was not impressed.

The only reference to Caspian's age in the movie is when someone snidely calls him a boy, but he's obviously not 13.

I enjoyed the movie, but it's not one I'd watch over and over again.
