Narnia Advertising Watch Continues
NarniaWebber, beloved, has posted several pictures of a large Dawn Treader stand now showing up in movie theaters. The large image features major characters such as Caspian, Reepicheep, and the Pevensies. Three surprising characters make an appearance as well.

UUUUHHHHHH why is peter susan and the witch in there?????!!!!
Totally agree! Let's get to Ramandu's daughter!
Well this is really odd yet cool reep looks cool I am upset about jadis though but still excited about it oh aslan looks diffrent than the other two but sail on VDT
i like it too, it gives off the feeling of fantasy which is something that Fox is trying to achieve.
i'm not gonna go by this theater stand that these are the characters we'll surely see in VODT, for one thing there has not been a word other than wishful thinking on Peter, Susan's or the White Witch's appearance. this seems more like Fox trying to state their claim to the world that they own the Narnia franchise now and everything that goes with it (even if technically they dont have a single thing to do with the first two films).
oh and would it be a hoot if they used Tilda Swinton's image as a precursor to the LOTGK? i would laugh so hard i'd fall off my chair 😀
i'm jazzed to see what looks to be Ramandu's daughter. if there was going to be some changes due to creative license, i wanted it to be done on her. because really in the book she's nearly a non-entity to just suddenly become the new Queen of Narnia at the end of all it.
i can feel yah! 😀 you actually went ahead with your movie, if that was me i would've turned my heel pronto and went straight home to upload (claiming emergency with the theater people lol)
Interesting, but I must ask, why are Peter and Susan featured on the spread?
this is so weird.
I think this gives me an optimistic sense to really expect the magnanimity of the film, as well as the story, indeed the LWW poster would always have a place in my heart yet this one is incredibly different as if a new face of Narnia is being exposed. After all, different is good.
I think for the promotion, it's really a big part of the strategies… to flash out pictures of old characters. It's quite funny and I'm sure this couldn't be the final poster. HA HA…
This poster at the same time stirs up those ever-under-the-surface-can't-wait-for-VDT feelings, and a feeling of, "Who hired that advertising staff??"
Maybe Ramandu's Daughter just happens to look like Jadis… I dunno.
thank you! took the words right out of my mouth
umm… hm. that was my initial reaction, followed almost immediately by, "where's the dawn treader?!?!?!" it was only then that I noticed the prow on the bottom, so it's like we're standing on the dawn treader and looking outward… but still, I seriously think that the absolutely breathtaking ship should have SOME image in the poster of, well, you know, the voyage of the DAWN TREADER.
It just looks rather crowded to me… and I laughed when I first saw that minotaur. and I don't understand why they're using that pic of Edmund. he just looks… odd. Overall I was hoping for something a little bit better…
*cough* sorry for my negativeness. Whether we have a great poster or a so-so one, I'm still WAAAY hyped up for the movie!!!!!
Isn't it obvious? The scene from the book where Lucy considers using a spell to make herself "beautiful beyond the lot of mortals" and she sees herself beautiful and sees Susan as well, jealous.
I don't actually think the woman is the White Witch, it could be Ramandu's daughter or something though I don't really know. Lucy does look grat and i mean it's true that she's growing up!I'm just dying to see the film i'm going absolutely loco!!!
I'm sorry, but which one is Lucy? She's not the one in the top left corner is she?
Yes, that's her. She looks different, doesn't she?
i love how you see that Peter and Susan are wearing normal clothes, cuz then it shows that they're not really going to be apart of Narnia, but still in the story. Susan looks really pale, though, and her lips are really, really red. her hair is beautiful though. Peter looks really good. now the lady who looks like Jadis could possibly be her, but then again it could still be just a siren or a mermaid. but in my opinion, i think it is Jadis. the woman below her looks like it could be Ramandu's Daughter, or a mermaid.
i agree with all you said, Talvi. they could have did a better picture of Edmund, and i had always hoped a poster would have a big picture of maybe the dragon head of the ship, or at least a big shot where you can really see what the ship looks like. but then again, maybe they did that cuz they want to surprise us in the movie when they (hopefully) do an awesome overhead shot of the whole ship.
wow this is so cool! I love it! it's beautiful!
yay! Edmund is holding the sword correctly! 🙂
oh my gosh! anna and william are in the poster. does this means they're coming back in the movie??
Yeah, I know. Anna is really beautiful in the poster.
I LOVE how they included everything from LWW on to VDT on the poster!! I don't know how to describe it…but it just makes it so much more epic 🙂
Plus, I love the fact that Susan and Peter are on it. Peter's obviously in his regular clothes, and Susan looks all dolled up, so I'm assuming they're going to be at the beginning of the film when everyone goes their separate ways for the summer (and maybe at the end when they come back). It'll be nice to see them just for a little bit instead of just having Lucy or Edmund say some line that explains where the other two are.
I also like the inclusion of the Witch. I've been thinking for a while that since the Dark Island makes everyone see his/her worst fear–wouldn't Edmund's fear have something to do with the Witch? Like, his "nightmare" is seeing the Witch kill his siblings or something like that, like she would have done in LWW had Aslan not come. Although…it makes me wonder…if they put her in, why not Miraz? Because Caspian's fear might be seeing his uncle "alive" again or something. I dunno, just my random speculation.
But anyway, I LOVE it. I'm so excited!!! Does anyone have an idea when the trailer will be out?
AND OMG I JUST REALIZED…at the BOTTOM RIGHT-HAND CORNER of the poster, right below the faun and the satyr…
RAMANDU'S DAUGHTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG!!!!!!!!! FINALLY, A PICTURE!!!!
*ahem*
Excuse me for the spaz…:p
Hey all, I've been a regular visitor here at Narniaweb for more than two years, but this is my first time commenting!
Paul Martin over at Narniafans.com confirms, "That is Tilda Swinton on the right side, appearing again as The White Witch. I can tell you right now: do not be alarmed. It’s not a big deal. She doesn’t appear for very long. I’m not sure the screentime but it’s likely to be shorter than in Prince Caspian. It’s for a dream sequence and nothing more."
He also explains that while Peter and Susan do appear briefly in VDT, their scenes are among the most memorable in the film. Neither the Pevensie appearances nor Tilda's, apparently, are anything to be concerned about.
"Dream Sequence"…I KNEW it! I'm almost positive that has to do with the Dark Island part.
Yeah, my mind is sort o spinning trying to imagine what creative things they could implement in a dream scene. Since, really, anything goes, those alone could add elements to VDT not shared in any other of the Narnia films. I'm pretty excited about it.
Omg i cant belive that susan and peter are back and the white witch!!!! This movie is going to b so awsome in every aspect. Im so exited about this movie so mutch. Only 199 days the movie is closer than u think!!!!!!!!!! Aslan is on the move.
I think there will be a scene (at the beginning) where Ed and Lu say goodbye to Peter and Su as they leave for America. That would explain why Peter and Su are there! And I think that Ramandu's daughter is on the poster (just below the faun and the minotaur)
*sits with mouth hanging wide open* Uhhhh…well, I'm quite mystified.
At least Ed is holding his sword right, now! 🙂
As to Susan and Peter and the Witch…or whoever that is…
I don't know, the girl below the satyr looks like she might be Ramandu's daughter :/ The only reason I can think they would put the White Witch in this one is because they find her stone dagger (the one she used to kill Aslan) on that island.
Shes gourges!!!!!!!! I love her.
I think Susan looks great! Also think that Peter looks just like he did in PC, but in different clothes. Or maybe they're the same clothes. I finally figured out where RD was and she looks stunning! Jadis looks slightly more evil and dark then in PC, when she was slightly more evil and dark then in LWW, where she was slightly more evil and dark then in the book. And why can't production just let her DIE?!?! Why do they need all of these reappearances?!
I didn't even know that that was a minotaur when I saw it- it's TERRIBLE. I hope that the film has better quality minotaurs!
Eek! I wonder why they have Peter and Susan on it, and on top of that, Peter's wearing a suit! And the WHITE WITCH??!! That's a bit odd……….
~Jill~
You're right. Peter and Susan appear to be in English clothing. they probably only appear briefly, but the filmmakers thought it would bring in viewers to have them on the poster. (and then, the non-narnia-reading viewers will be fed up that Pete and Su aren't really in the movie very much…)
THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE HEADS UP! 🙂
Wow, the picture of Susan is amazing. Peter, Susan, Caspian and Eustace are the only ones that look real. It's still so exciting though! 😀
Briefly, yes.
YEAH! NARNIA GEEKS FOREVER!!!
I'm sure someone has said this already, but I didn't take time to read all the comments 😛
But anyhoo, Peter and Susan being there doesn't really bother me. My guess is they'll be there as part of the beginning, maybe seeing Edmund and Lucy off to their uncle and aunts.
Peter and Susan may just have cameos. It may keep the coherence and attract previous viewers. Anything so that VDT has a good revenue. I do not find it controversial or offensive in any way.
In the close-up picture, it looks like Susan and Peter definitely have different clothes… I'm excited that they might just make a tiny appearence.
The gal that looks like the White Witch kinda has me freaked out, but I think that the knife or the dark island ideas both kinda make sense. Maybe. It's just kinda stupid to try and put her in every movie.
I can't remember if it was a play or a dramatized CD or what, but they had the four Pevensies talking about Susan going to the states, Peter going to study, and Lucy and Edmund groaning about that "rotten stinker Eustace" that they had to visit. Maybe that's why Peter is in it? And Susan appears in the magic book when Lucy is comparing her beauty with her sister's.
Sorry if somebody already said that, but I didn't have time to read all of the comments.
P.S. I *love* Ramandu's daughter!
I think that the minotaur is DEFINITELY out of place, as are Peter and Susan. I don't like the idea of having a minotaur on the ship, and who is that lady who looks like the WW, and is that girl on the bottom of No. 2 the Star's daughter? Just wondering. Anyway, I have hopes and doubts about this one……. hope they have decided to stay close to the book!!!!
Thanks for the info!!! Yeah, I thought about that possibility as well!!!
I love the Star's daughter as well!!!
Susan looks mad, I don't think that lady is the White Witch.
Yes, that's the White Witch. She's just very photoshopped. 🙂
At first glance, it does remind me of Tilda as the White Witch, but now it just looks like it is a merwoman. I believe the woman below the satyr is Ramandu's daughter. However, I do not understand why they would put a merwoman who looked so much like the White Witch, on a promotional poster. If she does turn up, it could be as a flashback to the Stone Table scene, like Xenithar said. However, it could also be like what Christian said. I remember hearing something within the past couple of months about them expanding the Dark Island scene. Jadis could appear in Edmund's nightmares or something, which I think, would be really, really cool!
Okay. Why are Peter, Susan, and the Witch on here? This has got to be the worst promo yet. It looks exactly like the horrible PC DVD cover.
At least it looks half-decent.
The Minotaur looks like King Kong (1933). Blech.
WTF is Jadis doing on there?
I don't think this poster is going to be attracting any Narnia fans any time soon.
Soooo….why are Susan and Peter on the poster? I was kind of looking forward to never seeing them again. :-S And that freaky lady on the right side of the poster looks way too much like the White Witch, even if she's not. Caspian and Reepicheep look cool, but overall this poster is just confusing.
where's the mlg aka Gael? We havent heard anything about her recently have we?
I didn't even notice he was in a suit! Maybe b/c he's going to college?
Hmmmm… I can sort of see how they are putting Peter and Susan in, but no the Witch….interesting. Well, I'm sure it will be great anyhow!
Yay! Thanks for the info!
I'm beginning to think that when Tilda signed the initial contract to appear in LWW, someone accidentally included a clause that signed her into all seven movies or something ridiculous like that… 😛 but seriously, I don't like seeing her there! Even if she does only appear very briefly in some small cameo scene (flashback or nightmare sort of thing) that doesn't warrant putting her on the poster. Makes no sense whatsoever.
