Summary
editThe queue displayed Narnia-related trivia questions on screens. Guests then entered the pre-show area, where they viewed behind-the-scenes footage featuring the film's director, Andrew Adamson.
Passing through a rockwork archway, guests then entered "Aslan's Stone Table Chamber," the underground vault of stone carvings where Aslan sacrificed himself in the first movie, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.
There guests saw a short edited clip from the movie. Multiple screens, dimensional sound and in-theater effects enhanced the scene of Peter and Edmond's temptation to use the power of the White Witch against King Miraz to win back Caspian's place on the throne.
Finally, the walkthrough concluded with a look at the concept art and storyboards from the film's production, as well as some of the actual props and costumes used by the cast and crew.
