Three Brand New Video Clips From The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
Aslan’s Country has posted the three clips from the Fun-for-the-Whole-Family Hour package. The first clip shows Eustace being very obnoxious with the Pevensies in Lucy’s bedroom. The second clip shows Eustace discovering the dragon cave and gives some hints about story change. The third clip shows Edmund, Lucy, Caspian, Eustace, and Reepicheep rowing across the Sea of Lillies. Eustace is talking about his undragonning.
There’s a lot of dialogue with Eustace in all three clips. This is by far the best footage we’ve seen from the film.

UPDATE: Fox has removed these videos from YouTube and Vimeo. We’re sorry for the inconvenience.
What do you think of the new videos?
Yay!
I love you for dragging the dufflepud chief into it!
AMAZING!! 😀 I can't wait for the rest of the film! Eustace is exactly how I always imagined him to be.. and I LOVE the look on Edmund's face while he's saying his poem in the first clip. hahaha!
Only one thing I'm curious about though.. Eustace calls Edmund and Lucy "orphans".. why is that? /:
Awesome! Can't wait to see it all put together!
yep! i wonder when will there be screencaps?
Oh my word, watching these clips only makes it harder to wait but I just can't resist! In the first clip I just want to knock the wind out of Eustace, but in the 3rd one I totally see him in a different light. I guess it's a good reminder to remember to see people through God's eyes: what they WILL be, and not what they are when we want to ring their necks!
SQUEEEEE!!! I'm choking on my own excitement!! I don't think Will has to worry about "meeting people's standards for Eustace".
They might not have kept the "Narnia-balmier" limerick, but the one he says is just as… well, not "good", but "good".
I don't like the appearance of Gael. I don't like it at all. However, I DO like the way they portrayed Eustace's greed. "You won't be needing that, will you?"
I also like his "I think I was a better dragon than a boy" and in response to Lu's "Aslan's country: I wonder what it will be like": "I can't even imagine it". EEEP! It's JUST LIKE HEAVEN. No one knows till they get there. Just for that line, I have to say that THAT CLIP is my favourite.
Thumbs UP!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG! OMG! OMG!!! I just got goosebumps from watching those videos! I cannot wait for the film!! I am actually more excited for this film than the final two Harry Potter films!! Eek!!
I don't know. Maybe it's just me, but the pevensies both looked kinda sad. I'm just going to think about this movie as it's own movie, instead of a movie going after the book. Maybe that will make it better. Not that I don't like it or anything! But I just won't be too disapointed if it isn't like the book.
WOOOW!!!!!!! so gooood! i wanna see it right noww!!!
i like these videos, they were pretty shocking. Lucy just seems so laid back in the first one and last one and we finally got some talk shots of eustace and caspian! I was shocked to see that we didn't have much Reepicheep! I cant wait! Sail on VDT!
I agree with you! And I like the fact that Edmund finds Eustace and Eustace is comfortable enough to talk to Ed before anyone else. That's nice. Poor Ed. He looks so helpless in the second clip. I just want to hug him and make him feel beter.
Yeah…. it kinda does!
I hope the director or producer or someone comes out and explains that… or at least says whether Eustace is right in calling the Pevensies orphans.
You're right!!! It does look like that picture of Susan and Peter! 😀
Orphans?? What? and Ben Barnes looks absolutely awful. The music in the dragon clip is no good at all.
I just have to say, I love Drinan's accent.
Wow! Just … wow! Will Poulter nails Eustace. Skandar Keynes and Georgie Henley are growing up. More like, done growing up. Oy.
0.o I noticed that too!!!! perhaps this explains why Edmund was trying to join the army, because he feels like he should be doing something to help protect his sister, as long as she's safe with Cousin Eustace & Co.
narnia is the best. long live aslan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is Caspian going on to the Utter East in the third clip? Isn't he supposed to turn back with the Dawn Treader?
The only "reconstruction of story" I'm seeing is the possibility that maybe Eustace's "un-dragoning" happens way later? And, of course, the whole Gael thing.
But I agree about the clips and colours.
Wow, you're good! I didn't even see what the picture was! (Too busy studying Eustace I guess.)
I'm rather wondering about that "orphan" thing too… kind of worrying me a little: Mr. and Mrs. Pevensie aren't supposed to die until LB! And where would Peter and Susan be?
That might explain it. However, I'm not entirely sure if Ed can protect Lu any better by leaving her with Eu (at least at this point in the story). ;D
But not only does it show us to see people the way God does (in the context of "how they WILL be"), but it does also show what a /transformation/ can be brought to a person's life through the grace and mercy of Christ.
That question was asked back when the trailer came out. Some suggested that perhaps he rowed with them to land, then turned back so the Dawn Treader wouldn't be left without a boat.
Sounds fine. You wouldn't want to be without a lifeboat. 🙂
The music was exactly the same as in the first trailer, just extended – so I don't think we have to worry about that one. I'm just assuming that when they released this clip they decided it would do better with music so they snatched the trailer music. I'm sure we'll have a normal score when it actually comes in the movie!
The person I'm worried most about is Lucy – every single one of her lines (Except for the one 'the water almost looks like it's moving') Just seem forced and very stiff. Eustace actually seemed quite good, and Edmund and Caspian also, from the few lines they actually had.
just my opinion. I'm really hoping that the clips that show in the trailer and these clips are NOT the final cuts – the 'It looks very narnian, doesn't it' just makes me want to scream every time I hear it! ugh! I have no issue with the line itself, just the way Georgie says it… :/
blegh. Just re-read my own post and saw how bad it sounded… not what I was going for. time for damage control.
I really really like Georgie, I really do!!!! And her acting isn't horrible, or anything, it just sounded forced to me, not natural like how she sounded in both LWW and PC. But then again, this is just based on trailers and unfinished clips, so who knows how accurate it is. I have very, very high hopes for this movie!
I KNOWWW! D: I got so excited when I watched it for the first time, when he apologized for being such a sod. That was one of my favorite lines from the book, just showing how big of a turnaround Edmund had and showing that Eustace could have it too. I was really really hoping Edmund would answer with his 'i was a traitor' etc. in the book after the sod line, but no luck. Ah well, I can hope for the movie!! xD
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HYPERVENTILATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gael looks like a very good actress (Arabella), I like her. Drinian's accent sounds pretty cool, and Will did a pretty good job of being a retarded jerk!!! I cannot WAIT to see the dragon part, I think their avoiding it on purpose, to keep it as a surprise. GOOD 4 U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First clip 0:31 oh yeah and Eustace I loathe reading *information* who seriously cares? Fiction is AWESOME and anyone who hates fiction, I personally hate them. 😐
BLOODY BRILLIANT got shivers all over me body yeah
Or, maybe, though I can't believe everyone's whining about this and no one's thought of it besides me yet, Eustace doesn't TURN into a dragon until later in the film's plot than in the books, maybe he's nasty for longer and that's why the dilogues like that at the last clip there.
Whee!! I am so excited! Nice clips, although I thought the cgi rocks falling instead of real ones was a bit cheap – oh well, it was safer, I suppose. Can't wait to see the dragon, either.
Peter and Susan would be old enough to find work somewhere as servants, and they sent the two younger ones to the Scrubb's house. I am earnestly praying that Eustace is making fun of the Pevensies. (Ha ha, your parents are in America. You're orphaned for the summer!) And actually, youthere, Eustace says "three orphans". I would guess that Susan has already stopped believing in Narnia. My movie expectations have gone down to 7 out of 10
OK I think I discovered something!!! There has been speculation that the old King (or whoever it was that turned into the old dragon) is the skeleton that Eustace pushes aside and that he never turned into a dragon, but if you look carefully at clip 2 during around 0:30 seconds, you can see that Eustace hears a rumbling sound and turns to the side. When he turns a kind of mist/steam drifts past his face!!! But the clip then jumps to Caspian and Edmund trying to find Eustace. I think that the producers just cut out the dragon for now, and the grumbling/steam is the dying dragon that Eustace finds. They've been hiding it pretty well, but I'm sure it is there!!!
yeah, narnian resident, I'm a bigger Tolkien nut than I am a Narnian nut. I have an entire shelf devoted to Tolkien books :D. I hope that one day I will be Beren.
Aaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS SOO AWESOME!!!!!!! :d 🙂
I think this going to be good, though I'm a little confused on the *orphans* bit. Did father and mother Pevensie die? Edmund is looking like he's going to be the protective big brother to Lucy and becoming a responsible cousin to Eustace. Skandar's voice has become deeper too. 😉 Looking forward to this.
OMG!!! SKANDAR LOOKS AMAZING!!!
Wow these are amazing clips! Can't wait to see the movie.
I was a little confused on the orphans bit also but then it got me wondering.
Maybe Eustace is calling them orphans because their stuck with him for the holiday while Peter and Susan are off on their own. Maybe he see's it like well Susan is in America with the parents and Peter's off studying so Edmund and Lucy were just abandoned and he had to get stuck with him.
I don't know but it's just a thought.
By the way I believe Will Poulter is PERFFECT for the role as Eustace and I can't wait to see him in this movie! 🙂
No, Narnian Geek, he says "TWO orphans", not THREE. I replayed it twice to be sure!
They absolutely made my day. I'm really excited by what I've seen here! Will Poulter is fantastic, and I think the others are doing a pretty good job as well!
Fox asked that Aslanscountry.com take these videos off of their website.
The Pevensies do become "orhans", eventually in the Last Battle. They're parents die on the same train they die on. That might explain it even though Michael Apted brought it out a little early.
He's just trying to annoy them, because their parents left them for the summer. I think some of you guys are reading way too much into this… 😀
Whoops! Sorry everybody!
Yay! Someone has responded to me! I feel accepted into the Narniaweb community. Thank you Lucy, for making my day!
I liked the first one best. I liked the 2nd one least.
I absolutely agree! 🙂
Why do you think Ben Barnes looks awful? I'm not crazy over the actor, but I love the character and I think he looks fine. :S
Now, now….we're supposed to love our enemies. 🙂 Including people who hate fiction. 😀
