The Latest Dawn Treader Banner in Theaters
Huge thanks to Narnian1 for running out to the theaters for us and snapping a few pictures for us!
This banner first showed up on Narnianos a few weeks ago, but wasn’t confirmed to be a legitimate poster until after I was gone on vacation, so we’re a bit slow reporting on it.
Hopefully now that it’s out in theaters, we’ll be able to get our hands on a hi-res image of it!
UPDATE: NarniaWebber Jacob C sent in an image of a slightly different banner hanging on the outside of the movie theater.

Thanks to Jacob C for the image!
Sweet!
Your welcome, I tell you- my sister and brother thought I was crazy going to the theater with a camera to take the picture of this banner.
oh, and sorry for the light glare, nothing I could have done about that I'm afraid. 🙁
Lastest? I hope not! I think you guys mean latest. 🙂
Well its still not perfect – i can overlook the fact that the dawn treader is backwards, as only the most hardcore geeks like us are going to notice the design of the sail being in mirror image, but the way they've messed with the coloring on the Dawn Treader sail is still disappointing considering how awesome the original image looks on Narnia.com. And reepicheep of course still looks wildly out of place, just as he has done on everything so far, and there are a few other minor problems with the overall composition and editing of the poster – but compared with the ugly monstrosity of a poster that showed up yesterday, this is positively fantastic.
Ha! Fixed. 😉 Thanks
Great! More advertising! But isn't the sail supposed to be purple, not red? Or is it just the lighting?
The Dawn Treader is flipped; the sail is red; that horrendous tagline is still present; and Reepicheep still looks tacky standing on top of the logo. But it is better than the one that was rumored to be the official poster.
Yes, it's supposed to be purple. I'm guessing that it was changed for this poster so that the colors would match.
Red sail? More weirdness in the marketing.
Yeah!!!! More posters!!!! That means we are getting closer. We only have 4 more months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep the story of Aslan alive!!!
I tell ya, I didn't even notice the ship was flipped, still can't tell how you all notice it. as for the red sail, it didn't even cross my mind that it's supposed to be purple, I guess it was done to just match the banner like daughter of king said.
It is even more beautiful on these photos!
AWSOME!!!!
The red sail is odd, wasn't it purple in the trailer?
Sweet!
It's not red. That's just a different coloring edition. See the original: http://www.lemondedenarnia.com/medias/goodies/wallpapers/narnia3_wallpaper_1.jpg And now after some edition: http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/8425/version2w.png
Beautiful!!! December 10th gets closer by the minute…
Maybe it's gong in a different direction instead of being flipped or backwards. I like it. The Voyage is getting closer and I'm so ready.
The red sail has been color adjusted for this banner. It's pretty purple here.

WOW!!!! WE CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nope, it's definitely flipped. Look at the "N" on the sail.
yea i as at the theaters here in canada ontario and i saw a big banner at the theaters outside
Ah, okay. Makes sense.
I do not think that's the letter "N". But the image is surely flipped.
… OK, that's a weird looking poster… You know, if Fox doesn't step up and do something GOOD with this marketing, VDT stands an excellent chance of being as bad a financial flop as PC. Sure, PC wasn't that great of a movie, merely comparing it to many of the other family flicks that have come out recently. But Marketing can often make or break a film.
I'd say Reepicheep on the logo makes it look more childish. And I'm not sure what's up with the red sail. But generally, I really like it as a poster! I bet it is very eye-catching to see in person!
That is awesome! Though you can tell that the other poster 9one a lot of people bashed) was obiviously unfinished that Fox really was working on.
that is is! I first saw that banner 3 weeks ago when I went to Inception's opening midnight show- my eyes caught that banner as if it was right in front of my face rather than up in the ceiling.
That's more like it. Show the Dawn Treader! Sail on VDT! 🙂
Ugh you're right about the color. Not cool! As far as Reep being out of place, I've been thinking about that aand I actually think he's supposed to be out of place. I think thats kind of the trademark of his character. He always seems "out of place" in the book, (he's a mouse for goodness sake,lol) but I think thats what makes him so lovable and whimsical.
Ok I thought I was really hardcore, but I have to admit, I did not notice that the DT was flipped. I DID however notice (with disgust) that the sail is RED!! UGH!!!! Maybe its just a color issue with the camera that took the pic?? maybe?? hopefully??? Anyway as far as poor Reep goes, yes, he looks out of place. He is ALWAYS going to look out of place, he's a mouse! He can't help it! lol. I really like it though, like I said in my above comment, I think thats kind of a trademark of his character, it makes him more loveable and whimsical to be a small mouse among "giants" Its why we all love him!
Nope, it's not the camera. I can guarantee that the sail is in fact reddish in the banner.
the ship is the exact same one on narnia.com
exept it has flipped you can tell by the N shape symbol at the bottom.
Red sail???
SO AWESOME! I LOVE IT AND CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT AT THE THEATRES IN MY TOWN!!!!!!!
That's really cool! I just don't understand why the sail on the Dawn Treader is red and not purple… maybe its because the theme is evening or something but I just find it odd… Other than that its good to know that the word is getting out there!
My guess is because the font is red, and they thought purple and red would sort of clash…
Did you tell your brother and sister that there were a whole hoard of crazy people on this website waiting for these pictures? 😉
Ya the coloring isnt my favorite 🙁
Neat! I cannot waittttt!!!!!!! Yahhhooo
For some reason the poster reminds me of the BBC Voyage of the Dawn Treader. That's not such a bad thing…and I like the poster all right…but I wish the poster-makers could be a little more imaginative. I liked the posters for LWW and PC better. But this new poster does convey the idea of the movie without giving out any spoilers, and it's simple but eye-catching.
So does anyone think there will be any more posters, or are these ones going to be it? I'm feeling like we haven't hit the climax yet, and I'm hoping it's going to be good.
What I want to know is… who cares if the colors clash! I actually like the poster, but I don't think the sail's color should have been changed. I don't think purple would have ruined the poster, but instead drawn one's eye toward it.
Perhaps we should just be grateful that there is a poster at all!
haha yes, I told my sister. She thinks we are all extremely obsessed though, which isn't far from the truth.
If they do the marketing right the climax will come at the end of November/beginning of December.
Wonderful!!!!
it'd the lighting that they used in the banner
Heh, those are my exact thoughts! x3 When I first saw this, I was like "red sail whaaat?" Then, "Oh, at least it's a COMPLETE sail."
Awsome!
No big news for me. I saw this banner a couple weeks ago at Narnia Fans.com.
I like how they are emphasizing Aslan and the boat more than the actors themselves. It makes me think and hope that Aslan will be more in this movie than Prince Caspian.
I'm so glad to see everything coming alon but I'm oddly dissapointed that fox is making changes like that (referring to the sail). I hope that all these things are completly fixed for the movie. Sail On VDT!! 🙂
I'm 99.99% sure the sail will be purple in the movie.
I saw that poster weeks ago. I got really excited, especially when I saw the cut out!
thats definitely a flipped "n"
Thanks for the pics, narnian1! 🙂 Yeah, I agree with everyone else. I don not like the sail whether it's for contrast, matching the logo or not. Other than that it's cool!
oops. *I do not like*
