However, I hate the romantic subplot trope with a burning passion. Honestly.Ĭol Klink I'm kind of a sucker for certain fantasy tropes (probably because I in addition to Narnia and other uniques series, I enjoyed a lot of generic fantasy books when I was younger) so although the green mist/seven swords/save the world plot detracted from what the original book, as a stand alone plot I thought it was generically okay. Wow, I really sound like I hate the movie. With Prince Caspian, I have to grit my teeth through the cliché and obligatory romance stuff, I don't lose sight of restoring Narnia which is what the story is supposed to be about.Īnd the Green Mist stuff isn't even that good on its own terms! Why are the lone islanders sacrificing people to the Mist? Who benefits? Are they able to communicate with it somehow? Why does the Mist tempt Eustace to take the dragon's treasure? His transformation actually ended up helping the crew defeat the Dark Island. If it weren't for the scene where Caspian talks about wanting to see his father, I'd have forgotten about Aslan's country by the time the characters reached it. The Green Mist and the Seven Swords drive the whole story of VDT. The Susan Caspian subplot is stupid but it only amounts to a handful of pointless moments. I respect your opinion but I really don't see how the Caspian and Susan romance can be worse than the Green Mist/Seven Swords plot.
