7 New Set Videos: Eustace in Action
And the videos from Cleveland Point just keep on coming!
NarniaWeb Spy Tamara is at it again, posting seven new videos from the Dawn Treader set, including one with Eustace swinging something around, and another (embeded below) where he is crying much harder than any boy of his age has a right to cry when nothing worse than a wetting has happened to him. Listen carefully and you might be able to make out some of the dialogue:
New Videos:
– Eustace swinging something: (View)
– Skandar Keynes and Gary Sweet between takes: (View)
– Drinian reacting to a “bang”: (View)
– The ship rotating: (View)
– Ben Barnes talking to the crew: (View)

Also, MundoNarnia.com has posted more pictures, including some of Ben Barnes walking up to the gate to talk to the fans.
Thanks to ‘Salem’ for the alert!
UPDATE: Another new video shows Shane Rangi putting on his minotaur costume in real time. View it here!
AWESOME!!! Will is a good actor!
I guess it's safe to assume that's just after Eustace first climbs on board. Sounds like he's saying something to the effect of "Get me off this ship RIGHT NOW!" (Please people…stop posting "First comment." I grow tired of deleting them)
Whoops! Sorry! haha
I love Will Poulter's acting!! He looks like he really gets into it. Can't wait to see everything completed.
This is so cool. Eustace looks so good.
I think Eustace might be one of my favorite characters from the movies…Poulter's acting looks entertaining and genuine.
Lewis certainly did a better job with fleshing Eustace out than a few other main characters from the series, so they have a lot of good material to work with.
Ok. Cool. Can't wait until 12/10/10!
I can tell that I am going to love Eustace…. not as much as Ed though 🙂
*Get me off this ship right now!!!* That is soo Eustace.
AWESOME! I cannot wait to see Eustace in the movie! I think he's gonna be one of my fave characters. 😀
these were so cool! omg! awesome! my favorite is the last one where eustace shouted something. omg will did an amazing job right there! this gives me confidence in this movie. i wonder if eustace is wacking at reepicheep in the first video? man i am just loving that shouting will did! it was just soooo perfect!!
Is that the scene where Eustace swings Reepicheep around? Aw poor Reep – that was some pretty violent swinging 😛 Anyway, it'll so cool when we finally see these scenes in the movie, and we're like "oh I remember seeing them filming that!" Haha. Thanks so much for the videos, Tamara!
WOW WOW COOL! These are so neat! And a couple of these scenes seem to come from the book! Ooooh, I'm excited! I wish I could hear more of what Eustace was saying though…
awesome!!! he is a really good actor!!! (can't wait for more videos!!)
Wow! Awesome! This all looks so cool! Wow with Will yelling he looked either really angry or scared or maybe both. I think he said, "Get me off this ship NOW!" He must have been yelling loud to be able to hear it over all the background noise. Man, he's awesome. And I don't why but I thought when Gary hit the deck in bang video was funny and I think Eustace was swinging around Reepicheep. Poor Reepicheep. I'd about kill Eustace for swinging me around by the tail if I was a mouse. Anyway awesome videos! THANK YOU, TAMARA!!! 😀 🙂
Does this have anything to do with Narnia???
ummm… what the heck?
Was that a sword Eustace was singing? Perhaps at Reep? 🙂
is it just me, or did I hear British Consul?
I know something else you need to delete…
and when it rains it pours lol! ok the photos first:
so Ben is back onset Wednesday. seems like he took 2 days off (Mon and Tue) since Kerrie's blog site didnt show anything significant during those two days. Tamara and other vid spies didnt seem to show anything either. but at least Ben is now able to interact with the fans. they've been waiting a long time for that. he missed the schoolkids with their field trip to the set last friday though, he probably would've loved talking to them and asking if they've read the books yet.
now the for the videos:
vid#1= that looks to be Eustace vs Reep! 😀 he looks like he's trying to whack something lower than him and who else could it be? nice!
vid#2= Skandar on deck with a stick! watch out people! lol! nice to see Gary Sweet interacting with some of the main cast for a change. i dont think they were shooting anything at this point, just rehearsing i think, because the director had them remove the stairs to prep for the actual shoot.
vid#3= now they shoot! what did Skandar say? this is an Edmund scene since the camera was only focused on him. seems like the Dawn Treader is under attack again or something, Drinian fell to the deck. Edmund looks either panicked or exhilarated. could this be related to the Dragon attack?
vid#4= it is truly remarkable how they are able shift something as delicate and as heavy as the Dawn Treader like its nothing, that is one remarkable piece of machinery under there 🙂
vid#5= Ben looks….ticked off? (any lip readers here?) he is either miffed about something– judging by the scowling/ eye-rolling/ defensive body language– or he's telling a story in a really animated manner (he is an actor after all). makes me kinda wonder if its anything VDT related or if some other experience (like his insane Toronto schedule!) the only thing i can make out is about halfway through he says "Oh, thats not fair" to the lady he's talking to, which led me to wonder if there is trouble in Narnia paradise.
vid#6= Will getting hosed down! 😀 judging by his "Earth" costume, this is for when Eustace is rescued from the waters.
vid#7= and it is indeed! boy is Eustace upset. and the crew just laughs at his face. LMAO! i hope that take is a keeper, Will was very good in that scene, hilarious and thoroughly convincing! i can only make out "What?! <mumble, mumble, mumble>…. right now!!!" is this the British Consulate scene? i hope they can include that line somewhere.
the first video(eustace swinging something) looks like eustace was challeged to a duel by a minotaur
Ha, I couldn't quite figure out what Drinian was doing in video 3! As I always say, I can't wait until the movie comes out and we can see all these scenes in their entirety rather than little clips. It will be sooo cool to know that I got to see it in its filming. Thank you Tamara for the videos!
I thought he was saying, "Take me to the British council." Maybe it's just wishful thinking, though. 😛
I agree with you Princess Arya. I thought this was a nice way for people to state there thoguhts and feelings on Narnia matters, I really think we should get back to JUST doing that and nothing else. And Tell It Like It Is, the reason we are offended is because we do have a life don't appreatite rude and insulting things.
Wow that's really cool
In the Drinian one, Skandar is saying after Drinian falls, he says to the camera, "that's brilliant!" Not sure why, though. I love Eustace's tantrum! Can't wait to see that scene. Wow Tamara, thanks so much for staying on top with all this, it's so much fun seeing these videos!
Oh, and Eustace says, "and I want to wake up right now!" He must think it's all a dream, and is panicking. Wow. I love this.
Sounds to me like they've done a good job with the script! It's going to be hilarious.
*sigh* Where's a ban button when you need one? In more relevant news, I've begun to get VERY excited about this movie. Very very excited. Excited enough to read the book all over again two days before it comes out so I can be hyper-critical, LOL. If it's better than Prince Caspian (even without Will Moseley *sad sigh*) then I will be satisfied.
I totally agree!!!!
1) Hopefully Eustace / Reep … that's sure what it looks like.
3) I wonder…what is that? I guess it could be the sea serpent, but it doesn't make sense for them to film that right now…maybe they ran into the pirates? :S
7) Awesome…Will Poulter looks great. I thought he said something about wanting to go home RIGHT NOW, so looks good. Now they just have to inclued the British Consul… 🙂
AWESOME!
This was so cool to watch!
Ekk!
I've watched them and now – I'M EVEN MORE DESPRATE TO SEE VDT!!!! SAIL ON VDT!!! SKANDAR'S ALSOME!!!!
I hope so. These are the coolest videos of him yet.
I would not say "better job" as if Lewis did something wrong by creating simplistic characters. In Narnia, simplicity (or innocence) is often associated with good, while evil is often more complex. Eustace is all about facts and reason (annoyingly so), and Lewis didn't seem to look on that kind of character very favorably.
yes!! amazing!! this is awesome!!! lets go VDT!!!!
Hahahaha I can't believe it I'm getting into GP I hate the new layout btw.
Perhaps not a "better" job, but it seems to me that Lewis did more characterizing as the books progressed. Eustace showed a great deal of change and growing up throughout VDT and SC. He's a funny character, for his obnoxiousness (which was never portrayed favorably), but he did grow past it. Other characters, such as Peter (who I'm still a fan of) or Susan, were basically the same throughout the series.
Hey thanks for posting my videos and crediting me!! I'm glad everyone likes them! <3
Skandar was saying "Eustace, that's brilliant!" sounds like the serpent scene
I think Eustace is screaming "it can talk, it can talk! And I want off this ship right now!" judging by the way he is looking down a bit, I think he see's Reep talking! I hope the famous take me to the British consul line is in there somewhere! Will Poulter is going to make a great Eustace!!!!!!!!!
Amazing…good actor
Definitely! Will Poulter is a GREAT actor.
My dad went to the set around lunchtime yesterday and he got to go on the Dawn Treader – he says the detail on the boat is amazing! Sadly, he wasn't allowed to take pictures 😉
Hmm…. if you listen closely in vid # 3, you can hear Skandar saying something… and what about Drinian falling? was he shot with an arrow or something, or was the ship supposed to pitch violently and Drianian falls down…. *gulps* I hope that the production isn't taking too much creatuve freedom.
But on the other hand, Skandar looks (and sounds) wonderful, and so does Ben, and I must say that Will Poulter looks and sounds just like how I imagined Eustace to be! 🙂
OMG! How cool for your dad! 🙂
AHAHA! These videos just made my day! ;D
Eustace is probaly blaming his cousins for this.
Though I won't call Eustace an "autobiographical" character, he's a lot like Lewis was before his conversion to Christianity. After his conversion, Lewis grew to dislike his former analytical self and the system that birthed it.
LOL, what a great Eustace, he's my fav! Thanks for the video.
oh wow! This is amazing footage!!! thank you Tamara!
Skandar, Ben, Will, they all look wonderful!
thanks again Tamara!
"Basically the same"? Perhaps their change isn't as dramatic as Eustace, but Peter at least does change and learn things. He learns about forgiveness and leadership in LWW (he's too hard on Edmund in the beginning, by his own admission.) In PC, he learns another lesson about leadership: To trust Aslan rather than himself (the first thing he says when he meets Aslan in PC is "I'm sorry, I've been leading them wrong all along). Eustace' arc is just more clearly defined while the other characters' arcs are more subtle. That's all.
Susan, on the other hand, doesn't change very much, and so it shouldn't come as a big surprise when she stops believing in Narnia in LB. She apparently didn't mature very much from her time spent in Narnia.
I think Lewis put something of himself in all the characters. But if I had to pick one character most like Lewis, I would say Caspian. That character is almost autobiographical of Lewis' conversion. For years, Lewis was an atheist and believed the Bible was full of untrue myths… Caspian mirrors the excitement Lewis felt when he discovered that the myth was real! The myth became fact. Crucial idea in the series…One that they touched on in the PC movie, but not very powerfully.
It makes sense. Both "Get me to a British Council!" and "Get me of this ship RIGHT NOW!!!" And the video where Eustace is swinging something might be Eustace and Reepicheep fighting. I mean, he's swinging at nothing because Reep is animated. And they do get into a fight. I have nothing else to say… OH! one more thing: SKANDAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! okay, i'm good.
HAHA! To Aravis(narniafan#!): I LUV your little… SKANDAR!!!!!!!!!!! but i agree with you totally. About the Eustace and Reepicheep thing. I makes sense. Keep the Story of Aslan Alive!
PS. if anyone thinks my name means "Will" as in "Will Pouter" i do NOT mean him! I mean William Moseley(Peter). I'd be SO embarrassed if someone thought I had a crush on Will Pouter! Everyone knows that William Moseley and Skandar Keynes are MUCH better looking than Will Pouter! well… i hope everyone knows that. CANNOT wait 4 the movie!!!
Ah, that makes more sense. I thought he was saying, "And I want to wake up right now!" Either way, I am very happy with whom they have cast.
Is it bad that I am so pleased to see a video of a screaming, tantruming child?
Yes. Yes it is.
But I love it anyway.
LOVE IT, WILL. YOU'RE DOING GREAT.
I totally cant wait to see actual film, not raw stuff.
-rubs hands together in anticipation for trailers…!-
