I love the idea of using that one for a trailer!

That one in particular occurred to me to, and I have to say, rearranging it does work quite nicely. It would be great for a teaser combined with little glimpses of the humans staring in wonder, animals blinking, and the sun rising on a new Narnia. Maybe we hear Jadis' line "This is a terrible world. We must fly at once."
I'm thinking I would like the MN trailer to use some of the book's opening lines. They don't have to be in the actual movie, but this would be a great way to work them in.
“This is a story about something that happened long ago.... It is a very important story because it shows how all the comings and goings between our own world and the land of Narnia first began.”
Some other's from MN
"Have you ever heard of old Mrs. Lefay?"
“The moment I picked up that box I could tell by the pricking in my fingers that I held some great secret in my hands.”
I think a trailer should refer to the title, so using the lines “Ours, my boy, is a high and lonely destiny.” and “Men like me, who possess hidden wisdom, are freed from common rules” would be really great.
