Dawn Treader Award Nominations News Update
A few news updates on award nominations for the The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.
Bad news first, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader was in the running for a Best Visual Effects Academy award, but did not make it into the next round of finalists in this category.
The good news is, Dawn Treader is a finalist for two BAFTA awards — Special Visual Effects and Costume Design. The full list of nominees can be seen on BAFTA’s website here. The document can be downloaded as a Word or PDF file.
And last but not least, Dawn Treader has also received a nomination for Best Fantasy Film by the Art Director’s Guild. That full list can be seen here.
Thanks to everyone who sent these stories in!
Narnia 3 definitely deserves several awards! Let's hope for the best! Go Voyage of the Dawn Treader!
O that's interesting! Although I don't think the costumes were as good as LWW or PC
VDT definitely deserves awards!!! I hope it at least gets at least one (hopefully more of course!) because that will be good for the movie!! LOTR didn't get ANY until ROTK and those movies were awesome….
Go Voyage of the Dawn Treader! The costumes deserve a rain of awards especially, Isis' creations are breathtaking! With each film she blew me away, I cannot believe PC costumes didn't get an Oscar! I think VoDT deserves several awards 🙂
Congratulations!I wonder if any of the Narnian cast are on this site…
Actually each of the LOTR movies was nominated and each won.
FOTR: 4 Oscars Won
TTT: 2 Oscars Won
ROTK: 11 Oscars Won
Aside of other wins it received with other Awards.
On Sunday, we find out if "There's a Place For Us" gets a golden globe. 😀
I haven't listened to any of the other nominees, so I've no idea what the odds are.
I've seen it three times so far (saw it again today!) and took 22 people with me in total. This time I was listening to the sounds and music more and enjoying the amazing special effects. Wow.
What an incredible show.
Eustace is such a great character and played so well in the movie that for that reason alone I hope many people get to see Dawn Treader AND that Silver Chair will be made.
Is it still in theatures then? The trouble with living in Wyoming, it already went out here. And, I got the CD but "There's a place for us," wasn't on it, is there a place you can buy just that song?
But yes, it deserves many awards and the costumes were great!
It's exclusively with itunes
Meaning I can buy it on the Itunes store? Sorry, I am very new to Itunes so am not quite sure how it all works yet 8-D
Haha yeah you can get it on iTunes
Cool! Thanks! I just found it 8-D
Question about the soundtrack: Is it only sold on Amazon? I have looked at 2 different stores, and neither had it.
I don't know about stores but its also on itunes
Borders and Barnes & Noble carry it.
Cool
I'm from the Midwest, and I went and saw it for the third time last night with 6 of my friends =)
Oh I think it deserves the fantasy award.
I believe I heard on here a while ago that two of the contenders are from Burlesque, and another is from Tangled, it's "I See The Light". I am a huge fan of Narnia, but I hated that they had a country star singing a country song at the end of the movie. I hope "I See the Light" wins, I personally think it was much better than "There's a Place for Us". Sorry, everybody, I know you loved the Narnia song, but it just wasn't my fav!
Yes, I think it has a good shot for Costumes. I cannot believe it isn't in the running anymore for Best Visual Effects…oh my gosh, why???? Who the heck overran them?? That was the one good thing about VDT, the effects were jaw-dropping. I hope it wins the other awards too, although I didn't care very much for the movie, it would be so good for it to get lots of awards.
VODT deserved the nomination but I think Inception will and should take the award.
I'm not into Carrie Underwood either (most American music is too bland for me), but I loved the video that went with the song. It would be a bit of positive press for VDT, and for Narnia, if the song won the Globe and curious people checked out the video.
I have to agree with you there; I really liked "There's a Place for Us" and would love to see it win just to promote the movie more, but I think I liked "I See the Light" better 🙂
I wasn't a huge fan of 'There's a place for us'. It seemed a bit airy-fairy-follow-your-dreams-ish to me. And in parts, it contradicted what the film was saying. However, it would be great publicity for VDT to receive this award, and let's face it, this film /needs/ as much publicity as it can get thanks to Fox's /brilliant/ marketing campaign (sarcasm).
I had the same trouble but I FINALLY found it at a bookstore in town. I don't know why, but very few stores seem to have it unless it is being outsold fast
No Oscars? That sucks! Same thing happened to PC, and now it's happened again with this one, just because of mixed (and misjudged) reviews.
I actually think that VDT is good enough to get some kind of Oscar nominee, at the very least! Man, that was a GREAT movie!!!! I'm dying for SC to be made!!!
I wish they were so they could see how much we love them!!
I agree with you, the movie could use all the awards it can get. The song WAS just rather shallow, although the whole movie gave me that feeling.
Actually I like some of Carrie Underwood and like country music, but her song just didn't belong in Narnia. I do agree with you all that it would be good for the movie, but I honestly think "I See The Light" probably has a better chance of winning. It is so fitting and a beautiful and sweet song to a beautiful and sweet movie that smashed the box offices. I kind of hope "I See The Light" wins cause I liked it so much better, but I would also be happy if "There's a Place For us" won because, although I didn't like it as a song and the fact that it was used in a Narnian film, it would be a small boost for the movies.
I know, I was surprised, too! Who the heck overrode VoDT's effects? I absolutely loved them, when I was watching the film I didn't notice there were special effects – this is how natural everything worked out to me! And the visual richness of the film was simply breathtaking! Oh, well, still I hope they'll get all the other awards they're nominated for.
The Dawn Treader is good! Hope it gets some rewards.
Let's continue supporting it, so we can have SC!!
“Alice in Wonderland”
“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1”
“Hereafter”
“Inception”
“Iron Man 2”
“Scott Pilgrim vs the World”
“Tron: Legacy”
hey,im just curious but has anyone ever tried an apple wrapped in bear meat? lol its in PC the book anyway, ive always wanted to try it! lol ik im wierd!lol
I wasn't sure where to post this but I thought it might be of interest to some of you Voyage fans. Voyage was filmed in Queensland, Australia. Queensland is presently experiencing the worst natural disaster in its history and hundreds of thousands of lives have been changed forever, and lives lost. Please look inside your heart and your wallet and donate to the appeal to help these poor people and the community that helped bring us a piece of Narnia. I hope this isn't out of line to be mentioned here. I just thought some people here might want to know and help. Thank you.
I think the costumes are well done, but I'm disappointed that they're straying away from medieval styles. I mean, I think it's clever to add some Telmarine flavor, but the clothes just don't look Narnian any more. I always pictured Narnian fashions as more fairytale-ish and flowing, and not so modernized. Is it just me? I like all costumes, but Narnia is supposed to be more medieval-themed and it ruins the atmosphere when the fashions don't fit!
I dearly hope they're not, not with all the negativity going on here. Skandar, Lucy and Ben have all given a lot of their time to make the Narnia universe come to life, particularly Skandar and Lucy, and they've done wonderful jobs, making the characters their own. All the ragging, and on a Narnia website none the less, is an insult to them as well. And at the end of the day, even if you've heard a thousand positive comments, it's the one negative you remember.
yes,well, i think LOTR deserves ever Oscar it ever won. Peter Jackson is such an amazing director.
i agree, Gem. 'There's A Place For Us' wasn't really that impressive. 🙁 It still is pretty, though, and i cried each time i heard it at the end of VDT.
sweet! i'm sure it was so much fun! 🙂
I eat apple slices wrapped in bacon. It's great!
Good post friend. Compassion is never inappropriate.
How good do you think Narnia would be if he directed?
I liked the costumes of the first two movies better too. The comstumes of VDT were nice, but I liked the medieval designs a lot better.
of course LOTR deserved every Oscar it got. Who said it didn't?
except I don't think Inception should have been put as "fantasy", though it I *guess* that's the closest category to describe what it is.
Oh, ok I didn't realize that.
Not of This World, i've actually said before that he would make an amazing director for Narnia. He did a fantabulous job on LoTR, Percy Jackson was awesome (well, despite some major character changes 🙁 ), and i've never seen Harry Potter 1, but look how far it came! it's just that Jackson is such a good director that he's probably above Fox's budget for SC (praying it is greenlit!!!!)
Also, Narnian #1 (awesome pic, by the way :)) i didn't mean to make it look like you said LoTR didn't deserve the Oscars. 😉
well said, Moviecynic, well said. 🙂 And very well said, Sub.
thank you for pointing that out. when i heard about the disaster on the news, i immeaditely thought of Arabella Morton (she it Australian, right?).
I liked it!
Come on no Oscars? GRRRR!!!
it's ok. Maybe I just read it wrong. I love LOTR, but I don't think Peter Jackson would be best for Narnia either.
Thank you very much for mentioning this, Sub. I hadn't heard and appreciate your post. 🙂 I'll be praying for all those involved!
ditto! I hope it wins these nominations!
me too!
WILL PRAY TO ASLAN THAT NARNIA WINS!!!!!!
Sci-fi doesn't get it's own category, so it's classed as fantasy, I think. Absolutely loved the movie, btw. 🙂
Reminds me of something out of the Minnesota State Fair.
Sheesh, I meant Georgie of course *facepalm*. See how they've made such an amazing job with the characters? I even confuse the names.
