First Look at the Matthew as the Dawn Treader
From IlfracombePeople.co.uk:
Visitors to Ilfracombe Harbour this morning were greeted by the spectacular sight of the ship from the upcoming film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.
A visitor to the town told Ilfracombe People “I love the Narnia stories and when I saw the boat in Ilfracombe Harbour I was really impressed and excited. It was such a lovely surprise and has really made my day-I felt like I’d been transported into the novel!”
The ship and its crew are sailing from Ilfracombe to Falmouth for the Narnia Weekend event on August 28th. It also appears that its final destination is London according to this article from ShipShapeBristol.co.uk (the link is a pdf).
The full article with more pictures can be found here.
Thanks to icarus for the heads-up!
That is so cool!!!!! It look beautiful. The people who get to ride on it are so lucky!! Keep the story of Aslan alive!!!
Possibly the most insanely crazy piece of marketing ever devised for a movie! Hopefully it pays off, because its just such an awesome idea!
wow i love it
LOOKS AMAZING!!!! Can't Wait!!
It looks so beautiful!
Agreed, I think that they did a really good job remaking it (in a smaller and cheaper scale) Looking Amazing!
To Narnia and the North…………….
Wow what a brilliant concept and I love how similar the boat is to the Pauline Bynes illustrations, purple sails and all, can't wait.
Yeah and not cheesy you really could go wrong with it but they didn't.
absolutly beautiful 🙂
sweetness. 🙂
So cool!! I desperately wish I could ride on it, but I'll have to just survive without that privilege. Oh well, I hope in the movie it will feel like you actually ARE riding on the Dawn Treader. 😉
First thing that popped into my head when I saw the picture: "Wow, it looks like the color illustration for the book cover!"
where is this?
It's so pretty! 😀 I wanna go on it! 🙁 Lucky Europeans…
beautiful ship. good job 🙂
you would if you see it in 3D….hint, hint.
Do you think it's…safe…?
It's not safe, but it's good. 😛
Nice word play.
Let us wait, and see who catches on.
That would be so cool! Well, I felt like I was flying when I was watching "Disney's A Christmas Carol". I didn't even see it in 3D. Anyways, the ship (Matthew) looks AMAZING! That would be soooo awesome to go on it! 😀 I wonder if they're going to have any activities on the ship.
Hahaha
xD
hehehe jep
xD
hehehe jep!
sorry, I wanted to reply to LL
OMG. This is the ship that docks at the harbour where I live. How EXCITING!
Beautiful ship. If only I could sail on it. 🙁 Nothing related to the dawn treader ever comes near Chicago. XO
Siobhan: You are so lucky! Congrats.
Myself: Oh I wish I could go!!! 🙂
Keep it up, Cheif, keep it up! 🙂
Wow. That ship looks just like how I imagined the Dawn Treader!
Good one!
que bien que se va a ver en 3D y no me gusta que la pongan en 2D de digital porque en 2D se va a ver menos de la pelicula de la travesia de viajero del alba y si se va a ver muchisimo mas en 3D si yo seguro que se va a ver bien en 3D de digital
I wonder what people must think…reading the crazy Narnawebber comments…lol
Estoy de acuerdo! 3D se awsome!
Mientras no lo hacen disparos realizados para 3D, como una espada que se apunta a la pantalla. Por favor, no hagas eso Fox!!
this looks so cool!
Why can't anything be for Americans?
Need more photos please. Need close ups of the dragons head and tail from the side elevation. At first glance they look like the actual head and tail of the real Dawn Treader from down under. I have walked her decks!!! It is sad that she was broken up but then she was a movie set and not designed for a long life. The skills of the movie maker are unbounded proving that man can do whatever he sets for himself. The trailer in now on show in Australian Movie Theaters. Christmas cannot come soon enough this year.
Looks Very good! Does anyone think it is a bit small?
Take some pictures and send them in to Narniaweb
it looks AMAZING!!!!!! i wish i got to ride on it!!
Wonderful.
