Third Narnia Film loses steam

From Cinemablend.com:
The third movie in the Narnia series (and my favorite of C.S. Lewis’s books), Voyage of the Dawn Treader had been in pre-production at Disney, on track for a 2010 release date. Now though, Disney has pulled out. HR reports that Disney will not co-produce and co-finance the next Narnia movie.

Trek Update

From SciFi.com:

J.J. Abrams, director of Star Trek, posted on the movie's Facebook
page that the film should be locked next week, only a few days after
its original release date of Christmas. The movie's release was bumped
to May 8, 2009.


"We're just making final tweaks to the movie--we should be
totally locked next week," Abrams wrote on Dec. 22. "Then we're going
to flash-freeze it so it's totally fresh for you in May. I can't wait
for you to see the movie. The cast is awesome. The action and effects
pushed the stunt team and ILM beyond their limits. I'm so grateful to
this cast and crew--and to all of you for your interest and patience.
We'll continue to update this page with new info and exclusives, so
check back when you think of it. In the meantime, have a happy,
healthy, fun holiday!"
