The Chronicles of Narnia are getting the Netflix treatment, and I hope that they're great. I hope they help an entire new generation of kids discover one of the best book series ever written. But I'm not encouraged by the appointment of Greta Gerwig as the director, because she's proven twice now that if she's handed a property made for children, she'll make a film for adults.

What do you think? Are you optimistic or pessimistic? What things do you think a filmmaker like Gerwig will do right and what will she do that messes around too much with the source material? And which adaptations of the Narnia series are your favorites?
