On the other hand, The Last Battle will appeal to the Christians who came out for The Passion of the Mel and Narnia but don't usually come to movies. Supposedly, they're a mightly large market.
I think Caspian/Treader/Horse/Silver are all about equally adaptable, especially if you munge Caspian and Treader into one, as I believe the BBC TV adaptations did. I'm not sure of the appeal of Horse, with the adult Pevensies, nor Silver Chair, with all the blind faith required of the kids.
Magician's Nephew on the one hand is dated but on the other hand, fun effects and all that. Last Battle is DEPRESSING and apocalyptic. Hmm.
Really, I just don't see them doing it all without lots of re-casting. And I don't see them wanting to do them all that much.
