In this episode of In Search of the Crystal Skull, Patricia and Arun conclude Fantasy Month with the 2005 live action film adapation of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis produced by Walt Disney Studios and Walden Media. There are four children named Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy who were sent to live with a professor after their home was threatened by bomb attacks during World War II. When playing hide and seek, Lucy discovers a wardrobe that took her to a magical land named Narnia where she meets a faun named Tumnus. Lucy tries explaining to her siblings what she discovered, but they don't believe her. Eventually, they enter into Narnia after trying to hide from the housekeeper for breaking a window to the house. Edmund meets The White Witch and promises to bring his siblings to her in exchange to being king and Peter, Susan, and Lucy tries to rescue Edmund after learning that The White Witch is evil and trying to prevent fulfilling a prophecy that she would be defeated by the lion Aslan and four humans who were destined to be kings and queens of Narnia.

When the film premiered in theaters, it made over $745 million dollars on a $180 million dollar budget. It was praised for being an faithful adaptation of the book while being epic, adventurous, featuring a stellar cast, and visually stunning with his cinematography, settings, and special effects. However, it has since been lost in the shuffle since it came out during the peak of fantasy film adaptations of The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter films. It currently has a 76% on Rotten Tomatoes. Did Patricia and Arun conclude Fantasy Month finding treasure or a major disappointment? Listen and find out.
