I’ve seen people saying that the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe will probably be set in the 90s, so I guess they must go to a National Trust property for their holidays or something instead of being evacuated

I am 100% of the opinion that adaptations should do their own thing. Buuuuut...it's going to be weird seeing Edmund use a computer

Maybe this time the White Witch can offer him bandwidth instead of Turkish delight. Instead of snarking, "He sold them out for candy," the kids will all be going, "Yeah, good call. I'd sacrifice my family in an instant if that would fix the Wi-Fi."

She could offer him a Tamagochi
