First Time Watching *The Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian* Movie Reaction 

“Reepicheep is descended from the dumb mice who chewed away Aslan's bindings at the Stone Table during the Winter Revolution. Aslan gave the mice the ability to talk as a reward for their kindness.”

Peter never said he wouldn’t kill the king because there had been enough death. The only reason he didn’t kill him is, as he said, it wasn’t his to take. It was Caspian’s. Caspian deserved his revenge and Peter wasn’t going to take that from Caspian.

For JV, The siblings becoming kids again is a metaphor for all the boys who went off to war, and once war is over those who survive come back are treated as children/expected to act their age. Peter struggles to act "normal" after living a whole lifetime. I've yet to finish the books so I don't know how well the other kids fair.

Despite being kids' fantasy, the series is surprisingly deep. Both Lewis and Tolkien were heavily influenced by their experiences as soldiers in WWI, so the depictions of conflict/war and the struggle to find hope in the midst of hopelessness is a common theme in both Narnia and LOTR. They also saw the loss of connection between humankind and the natural world (as a result of unchecked technological advancement) as a negative thing, hence why both stories have such a huge emphasis on nature being alive (like the talking animals here or the Ents in LOTR). The Narnians taking back their land is at least partly a story about nature reclaiming what was destroyed in the advancement of civilization, as well as encouraging people to adopt a mindset that we shouldn't seek to conquer nature as much as to recognize that we are a part of it. We belong to the natural world as much as it belongs to us

I always figured that since Susan’s quiver is magickal, it respawns arrows, so she cannot run out of them.

The ending song when they go back to the normal world always makes me sad

In the book Prince Caspian is younger than he is in the movies, and is rather in awe of the "ancient" kings and queens. In the book Caspian has a failed attempt at attacking the Telmarines, but not in the palace. Peter and the others arrive after that failed battle.

Neither Peter nor Caspian have any qulams about killing people in the right circumstances. They both kill in battle. But I think you missed the point of the scene with Miraz (Caspian’s uncle who became the Telmarine King). Peter didn’t kill him because, as he said, it wasn’t his to take. He didn’t have a claim to Miraz’s life in the same way Caspian did. Peter was allowing Caspian to take his revenge for his father’s death. Exactly the thing that Caspian had tried to do earlier during the castle invasion that Peter had gotten so mad at him for. It was growth on Peter’s part as he acknowledged the importance of this moment for Caspian. As for Caspian, not killing Miraz was a huge step for him. He didn’t kill him because it would have been purely out of revenge. Peter had won the duel, Miraz didn’t need to die. If Caspian had killed him, it would have been in cold blood. Even though Miraz’s life was forfeit for losing the duel, there’s a big difference between killing an enemy in the heat of combat, a life ir death situation, and killing a helpless, gravely wounded enemy. Miraz had been defeated and had a stab wound in his stomach. Killing him would have been pure revenge. By soaring his life, Caspian showed huge character growth. Sure, you can argue that they should have killed him because Miraz wouldn’t have kept his word to call of the attack. But the Telmarines didn’t follow the rules of combat anyway. It wouldn’t have made one but of difference if Caspian or Peter had killed him as opposed to the Telmarine Lord. They would have gone back on their word and attacked regardless - saying the Narnians had cheated somehow. It was far more important for Peter and Caspian to have those moments of character growth and round out their character arcs for this story.

In the books Aslan repeats "No one is allowed to know what would have happened" several times throughout the series.

The name of the station they were at was STRAND which in German means Beach and they were transported to the beach at the beginning.

This is my favourite Narnia movie. I absolutely adore this movie! Also, that may in part be because Ben Barnes as Prince Caspian was my first childhood crush… and I may have never grown out of that 😂

In the previous movie, Father Christmas gave Susan a magic quiver, it never runs out of arrows.

I just love the whole thing! the characters, the visual, the story.

"its hard to be multitalented" 😂😂😂 im laughing with you. You guys are adorable

Peter did say It's not mine to take. And Caspian said Not a king like you. That's why he didn't kill him

The first 2 are just perfect. My childhood. I enjoy the 3rd one but it's not as good

That Minotaur was a complete badass

This is my favorite of the trilogy but people criticized it because it was too dark and not as magical as the first one. The third one goes back to the magical atmosphere I think.

Thank you for this reaction! I don’t know if you knew this, but Reepicheep and his fellow mice are descendants of the very same mice that ate away the cords that bound Aslan to the Stone Table. It’s also suggested that the evil dwarf Nikabrik is a descendant of Ginnabrik, the White Witch’s dwarf in the film. My favorite moments are the children returning to Narnia, seeing the cave drawings and the Stone Table still cracked from Aslan’s resurrection, when we see the dark ritual take place and that Edmund destroys the wall of ice to prevent the return of the White Witch, the showing of Aslan in that scene to remind us to always have faith in Jesus even in the darkest of times, Aslan’s return and turning the tides of the battle, and how Peter and Susan must accept the responsibility of finally growing up while Edmund and Lucy will still be able to return to have another adventure with their new friend and fellow ruler Caspian. 👩🏻‍🦰🧑🏻👩🏻‍🦱👱🏻‍♂️🤴🏼🦁🛤️⚔️ 🛡🏹🎺🧪❤️💛🖤🩶

Not sure if you are aware but the national animal of England is the lion, hence the lion statue and other details (which are obviously related to aslan as well) :D

I think it's a great missed opportunity that they didn't show the part from this book where Aslan and Lucy go around Narnia having a rave and dismantling the school system :D

The way they use gryphons in this film is my favorite use of them in a fantasy battle.

Day 1 of telling them to watch hacksaw ridge its one of the best war movies I’ve watch

They were the only humans technically in the first one, but there were other lands that, as they grew up in their first life as rulers, they made agreements with. I'm pretty sure, just before they left the first time, Susan was thinking of marriage.

It ending in a train station ….four shadowing well at least for 3 of them book wise

My favorite one in this trilogy!! We gave all of them on DVD. Prince Caspian is a looker!

So in regards to publication order, The Hobbit was first published in 1937, then came the first 4 Narnia books (Lion Witch Wardrobe, Prince Caspian, Dawn Treader, Silver Chair) from 1950-1953, The Lord of the Rings books and the next two Narnia books (Horse and His Boy and Magician;s Nephew) were published in 1954-1955, with the final Narnia book published in 1956. Film wise, The Lord of the Rings films came out first from 2001-2003 and then Narnia came out in 2005 and 2008.

Jane is about to scream "JUSTIN" in the thumbnail hahahah love you guys ❤

Idk why but Justin saying mash up makes my day😊

Oh man, I haven’t seen this movie in forever but it’s such a good movie/series

Jane "ding donged in my ear" . That look on JT face priceless 😅😂

I’ve been waiting for this video ever since you reacted to the first movie!!!

Eu tava ansiosa esperando vocês assistirem esse filme

I think the name you are groping for is Mr Tumnus !!!

Have you guys watched The Punisher (TV edition)? An older Ben Barnes (Caspian) plays a major character.

Great reaction team, its a slow burner this one but we liked it at the end. Jane!! How many times are you going to do some 'innuendo' 😂😂🙈 actions and everything 😂😂

I liked this out of three the most. It is darker, with deaths and such, more serious.

A shot for everytime you say 'Justin' 😂

Totally unrelated... but I have those color changing cups too! Love them. ❤️

48:28 Reep-a-cheep kills his creator. The actor that played that soldier was the guy in charge of animating Reep-a-cheep.

yes i was waiting for this

Thank you for noticing the wolf creature was a werewolf. In the scene were they try to summon the white witch.

I loved this series growing up. I'm sad they never made any more.

I like this Narnia movie, but the third one is better. ❤

10:30 not a weird test at all. They were known for their swordsmanship!

Holaaaa, Saludos desde España, me encantan vuestras reacciones

Congrats on all the new subscribers, you guys deserve it :D

Trupkin that's the name of the Dwarf.

willow is a classic. i watched it as a child over and over.

The third movie is a lot of fun as well!

24:36 Wonderful words, I hope you believe them. These great truths are the real inspiration for C S Lewis when he wrote the seven books of the Chronicles Of Narnia.

Jane, you're so funny, and I don't think you get enough credit. Your jokes are the reason I subscribed. Keep doing you!

This is so underrated

I'm new here, hello from Singapore. I'm enjoying your reactions of my favorite franchises especially LOTR 🤭

Read the books! There is so much there! :)

I love your reaction Narnia second movie.

JV idk if you saw but they made a willow tv show very recently! Warwick comes back for the titular role too, you should check it out 😊

31:51 picking people up and dropping them would be Lord of The Rings with the Nazgul wyrens at Minus Tireth.

13:02 The four children have nothing to do with Harry Potter. The book was published in 1951 long before Harry Potter was written.

There isn't a lot of Harry Potter in this. Narnia was first! If anything JK Rowling took inspiration from Narnia.

I would love to see you guys react to some old movies like ( the last dragon) i think you an jane would enjoy it 💯

Just came from binge watching a lot of your reactions. You guys should react to the Adam Sandler movie "Click". You'll probably cry yourselves into dehydration with that one lol.

RIP Asterious 🫡

Can you react to "Scrooge: A Christmas Carol (2022) or "The Nutcracker and the Four Realms"? Those are beautiful christmas movies! 😊💖🎁🎄

It was Tumnus. I'm Templeton. Lol or at least my least name is.

I've heard they're going to be continuing the series soon. There were a total of seven books. I would really love to see movies for the rest of them. But there is an inherent "Hollywood" problem with them. Peter and Susan don't come back for the next one, and the main characters change. Unlike in the Harry Potter books or other serieses, where we follow the same characters. It's already a bit sad that we don't get to see the Beavers and Mr. Tumnus again. This presents a marketing problem for movies, at least in the minds of the executives and producers. Of course, it's not going to matter much in this case, since so much time has passed since the making of the third movie, that they probably won't be able to use the same actors anyway. Except for Liam Neeson.

This is the 2nd video from this pair that I've seen. Is there a reason the lady keeps randomly shouting "Justin!"? Cuz like man it throws me off everytime

I mean they didnt live " a whole life" they were like 21 when they come back at the end of the first movie

oh frick on a stick. lmao

J.K. Rowling has said she was influenced by Narnia and whether it was on purpose or not, each of the Pevensie children represent each of the houses in Hogwarts. Peter = Gryffindor: Brave, loyal, honourable, chivalrous, a natural fighter & leader and protects his family at all costs but is impulsive and proud. Edmund = Slytherin: Ambitious, intelligent, resourceful, falls into temptation to gain power & recognition. Susan = Ravenclaw: Logical, wise, intelligent, witty, caring and often the voice of reason. Lucy = Hufflepuff: Kind, helpful, selfless, forgives easily and treats everyone as equals. She also has a bit of Gryffindor in her: Brave and loyal. Caspian could be a Hufflepuff or a Gryffindor too: Strong, loyal, kind, noble, strives for fairness and justice. When the first film came out I was 12 and crushing on William Moseley & Skandar Keynes. When this came out I was 15 and crushing on William Moseley, Skandar Keynes & Ben Barnes. Today I am 30 and still crushing on all of them LOL (although there are very few recent photos of Skandar). I don't know if it's an unpopular opinion but I think Ben Barnes is the perfect Caspian, in spite of them aging him a lot from the books. Btw another film starring Ben I recommend is Stardust (even though he only has a minor role). Fun fact: Douglas Gresham, C.S. Lewis' stepson and heir is the dude you hear announce the birth of Miraz's son.

Ugh I hate how yall are always so bloodthirsty in this always for the killing!😂🙄

it was a leopard. this was a story by C.S. Lewis

Sweep the leg is karate kid not Bloodsport

This story made so much more sense when Caspian was 10.

Mr tiddle-too, templetoo, templeton, tiddly-o 😆

Edmund is cute

Watch the third movie plsss

Caspian is a pizza place in England 🍕

Watch Gran Turismo

so what did you think of it

13:12 the Harry Potter houses wearnt inspired by narnia 😂 you just watched a tiktok someone made

not to hate but why do they keep comparing game of thrones to Narnia when the movies came out first

Please activate subtitles🙏😓

Dear Jane, did you get high before watching this? If so, okay, I get it. Love and peace to you and yours. 😁😁😁

"Died for our sins" I'm glad this was brought up. It will be clear who Aslan really is after the third movie.

actually: peter is hufflepuff susan is slytherin edmund is ravenclaw lucy is gryffindor

Thay used the same schooluniformes like in Harry Potter lol, some of Hause griffendor & some of house hufflepuff i can see^^. Ps: The Oldenburg granny guy on beginn is therir grantfaher where they lived in the first movie i think. Is he ?

its actually very ironic that skander played Edmund and love Turkish delight because he is half Lebanese, half Turkish and half Persian. His mom is Lebanese. xD

as someone who loves the books, i find it difficult to see how they adapted the story. it was highly inaccurate, although it did have it's moments to be enjoyable as a whole. the third movie is even more of a disappointment when being accurate to the book. the first movie was about 75% accurate, this one was about 60% accurate, and the third is about 40% accurate. i HIGHLY recommend that you read the books after seeing the movies, they provide more depth to the story. and yes, there is a preferred order. the lion, the witch, and the wardrobe prince caspian the voyage of the dawn treader the silver chair the horse and his boy the magician's nephew the last battle

I don't know if I'm right in this, but there seems to be a bit of a plot hole in terms of the Telmarine timeline - they're said (at least in the film) to have arrived not long after the Pevensy children left, brigands run aground on island from the same world....but their garb and the way they speak, their knowledge of infantry and battle strategy suggest they came from an earlier time. It's highly likely though that I'm misinterpreting the timelines and they simply learnt all the knowledge they have over the 1300 or so years their people have been in Narnia but I welcome respectful replies and takes on my thoughts -particularly from those who've read the books, if this storyline is included in them 😊

This movie absolutely messed up the book, it's barely recognizable but I actually prefer this way. The book is fricken weird, by far the weirdest of them all. And is my second least favorite of the books. King Peter is Saint Peter King Edmund is Judas Queen Susan is Mary Magdalene Queen Lucy is Mary Mother of Jesus Nothing to do with Harry Potter.

I heard they are going to make a show

While I'll admit I love all three movies. I wish just once someone would make a start of the movie franchise and actually complete it. Don't release the movies in the order the books came out in or these movies came out in. Instead do them in chronological order. Magician nephew, then Lion witch and wardrobe, then horse and his boy, then Caspian and Dawn trader, and end it up with silver chair and final battle.

Why j.k wrote , Harry potter using parts of this is a remake , BBC had made a TV show of it . I have a copy of BBC s version, it did not air in canada for some time .

All of these movies have biblical teachings since C.S Lewis wrote with biblical references in mind

My favorite Narnia movie, I don't wanna dampen your excitement but I didn't like the next one, although the acting was good from someone in the next one

The wife is really over react

This movie, imo, is so much worse than than book…and my least favorite of the trilogy (which should’ve been a quadrilogy.

You didnt understand the films, over react, over acting, but dont know anything, the bad reactions i've ever seen

It’s funny how they tried to paint the night raid as a failure on Peter when it’s literally Caspians fault it was a failure. If he had just stuck to the plan it would have worked and the war would have ended right then and there.
