New ‘Dawn Treader’ Trailer Online

The DVD release of “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” includes a short new trailer for “The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.” You can now watch a low-quality version of it on YouTube. The video is very poor, but the audio is excellent. Watch it below:

UPDATE: NarniaFans has posted a better-quality version (the aspect ratio is a bit off, making everything look tall and stretched, but the color looks much better):

And, here are good-quality screen captures of the new/updated shots:

    Overall, this is a significantly better trailer than the first! The shot is Lucy slowly walking down the hall is awesome. The cinematography is beautiful, and I love Georgie’s expression. I hope that scene is just as creepy as it is in the book.

    There are definitly some things that make me cringe (“think of the lost souls”?), but overall…this actually, unlike the first trailer, kind of looks like a “Voyage of the Dawn Treader” movie!

    Is that a picture of a dragon on the stained-glass window?

  3. glumPuddle says:

    I think it's a lamp-post actually! 🙂
    Pretty cool how the Walden logo fades into the window. I wonder if something like that will happen in the actual movie. Kind of like what they did at the beginning of PC.

    Beautiful trailer! This wasn't messy like the previous one. It gave a feeling of nice sea adventure. Though I can't help but to wish they would have let it be like that: we have enough epic grim serious stories of mighty destiny. Just enchanted adventure would have been nice break to that… But anyway, this is engouraging! Think of Aslan!

  5. Taigan says:

    Star Girl looks beautiful! Wow, I have to admit, the CGI and special effects took a turn for the better. This is also apparent in the mer-girl Lucy waves to in the water! Now with a dragon and some intense action scenes, this will be one heck of a movie! Overall, looks quite a beautiful, I especially find the scenery of narnia quite enchanting (if that's even narnia???) I have hope this will be great now!!!

  6. Griffle says:

    Some of the effects still look a bit unfinished to me, like the Dawn Treader in the shot when she's on open sea, Reepicheep in bright daylight and the blue light of RD. I wonder if it's David Arnold we're hearing in this "trailer". I love the music.

  7. glumPuddle says:

    "Greatest voyage in CS Lewis' epic masterpiece." Haha. Yeah. The only voyage.

  8. Warrior 4 Jesus says:

    Not much more to say other than this is the trailer I was hoping for! Much, much better than the first. I actually feel excited again about the movie. Fantastic! Still not sure about the 'lost souls' talk but everything else looks amazing.

  9. Griffle says:

    So, will you do another trailer analysis? The one you did was great.

  10. captain_J-Rock says:

    I still think that the movie looks amazing, and this new trailer gives me even better hope. I love the sequence with Lucy and the book. My only pet peeve is how bad Aslan's roar sounds, like a "loud burp". At least in the other two movies, his roar sounded like a lion. Otherwise, I loved it heaps! Well done Fox, Walden, Michael Apted, everybody!

  11. rutger says:

    I liked the trailer too. Most of the shots which were also in the first trailer had a very nice upgrade. Just one little thing: why does it have to be soooooooo short??? there were only things in it we've already seen…

  12. coracle says:

    Don't cringe about the lost souls – a soul lost at sea is simply someone who is lost. It does not have to have any spiritual or fantasy overtones!
    I don't like this one anywhere near as much as the first one. It pretends to be telling a story, but the speakers don't move their lips, nothing is linked, the scenery is weird (looks like Gaiman wrote the screenplay).
    I hope this ISN'T a good indicator of the film.

  13. Warrior 4 Jesus says:

    Yes, maybe the 'lost souls' are just the seven lost Lords of Narnia. At least I'm hoping that's the case.

    Coracle, you enjoyed the first trailer more? Granted there were aspects of the first I enjoyed but it frustrated me as a whole. This short trailer doesn't show as much but what it does is interesting and it seems to have it's own unique identity. I'm positive that we'll get another full-length trailer before VDT is released.

  14. Starlily says:

    Yeah, some of the effects look unfinished to me too. Is it just me and you? Everyone else seems to like them. I hope I'll like them in the movie. 🙁 It's not that they're bad…they just don't wow me. And I want Narnia to wow me.

    The trailer itself is nice enough, although I still need to watch it a couple hundred times to make up my mind. 😉 On the whole, I think this trailer raises more questions than it answers. What significance does the cathedral have at the beginning? Where does Lilliandil appear? Who are the "lost souls" that Caspian sounds so urgent about? Is that bright doorway in Coriakin's garden the only way to get into his house? And where on earth are the Pevensies reunited in Narnian clothing?? Very interesting, and I can't wait to learn more (and see Eustace and the sea serpent).

  15. DragonGirl28 says:

    Very cool!! Only I wish it weren't so short.

  16. Lucy P. says:

    No, I don't think the effects are all that great either. Reep especially makes me cringe; I've seen video games in higher quality!

  17. Lucy P. says:

    Yes, I'd look forward to an in-depth treatment of this trailer.

  18. FriendOfNarnia2 says:

    Well it was nice to here Caspian without his accent. He doesn't sound too bad to me. 🙂

  19. Gymfan15 says:

    Well, in the trailer's defense, I have to say that Caspian's line sounds like it could be spoken at the Dark Island. What do you think?

  20. adamie says:

    WOW, and that on my birthday!!!!

  21. This trailer looks better than the one on Dairy of a Wimpy Kid. The one on Wimpy Kid was horrible quality. The content was good.

  22. Trufflehunter says:

    I agree Gymfan15,I too think that Caspian's line is to keep everybody strong while at Dark Island!

  23. Trufflehunter says:

    Happy Birthday! I think it's very clear that Fox and Walden are trying to hold back on the big CGI shots (maybe because they truly are incomplete). This trailer doesn't "give anything more away." WHich, isn't really a problem, I just wish we could clear up the Pevensie problem, Dragon/Sea Serpent situation, etc.

  24. nathan says:

    I love that Caspian has an English accent. Now I can actually enjoy watching his character.

  25. DamselJillPole says:

    That was good! Essentially it feels more like a magical Narnia trailer. The Pevensie walk most definitely looks like something in a dream or vision since the background looks so much like Cair Paravel, i'm not worried about that scene no more. What makes me cringe is that Susan's horn is on the voyage. In the book it was explained that Caspian uses his own horn to not accidently bring the Pevensie's back when Narnia wasn't in trouble and that Susan's horn was protected by Trumpkin back at Cair Paravel in Narnia. That makes no sense to carry it on a voyage. Though it was great hearing Caspian speak, still I wanted more and wanted more Eustace and the purpose of the voyage, and I know seeing Peter and Susan isn't.

  26. adamie says:

    This should so have been the Teaser! It's much better, although some of the effects look worse than in the previous one. Other effects look better, true. But all in all it feels much more like the book, other than the teaser, which just felt like a cheap rip-off to me.

  27. adamie says:

    It's the same music as in the robin hood trailer, by the way.

  28. Starlily says:

    Okay, so now I've had a chance to view the trailer properly, with not so much happening around me, and I've decided I like the flavor of it better. It actually gave me a chill, which the other one didn't do. Oh, and now that I know Ramandu's daughter is appearing at the table of food, I'm really happy. I can't wait to see more footage of everything! (But I do hope the effects get better)

  29. daughter of the King says:

    Not bad, still nothing about the actual plot, but not bad. I do like this one better, but I'm not sure if that's just because I have had time to get used to the other one.

  30. Trufflehunter says:

    But then again, in the book, Caspian brought Lucy's cordial on the voyage. And he had no idea that the children would be returning to Narnia at that point, so I guess he planned on using it for himself. Maybe Susan's horn also would explain why Susan's bow, quiver,and arrows, and Peters sword are on board the Dawn Treader.

  31. Reepicheep says:

    I loved the first trailer and I've watched it 26 times! But this one just felt so generic compared to the first though, because of the music at the beginning and the unfinished special effects.

  32. true-narnian_queen says:

    this trailer was AWSOME!!!!! we finally hear Caspian but do not see him! and the shots of Ramandus Daughter are beautiful!!:D I liked the music in this one better than the last one!! GO NARNIA!!!!!!!!

  33. Not Of This World says:

    I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow! That was AWESOME!!!!

  34. pselpevensie says:

    i love it!!!!!!!! i loved lucy's face when she was walking to the book. can't wait to see the movie!!!!!!!

  35. Pepper Darcy says:

    Awesome screen caps! 😀 EEE! Hey, is that the MAGIGIAN'S house in those screen caps where Lucy's walking into the door? Pretty neat if his house is invisible too because of the spells 😀

  36. Northernranger says:

    I really liked this trailer. Wish it had been a little bit longer. ONLY FOUR MORE MONTHS TILL IT COMES TO THEATERS!!!!! Keep the story of Asaln alive!!!!

  37. King_Cor_the_Great says:

    I don't know if everyone saw this but Susan has her quiver???????

  38. FrecklefaceJill says:

    For some reason the comp won'tlet me watch this………

    FFJ

  39. Nimrodel says:

    Hey check this out: 0:08 of trailer #1 and 0:14 of trailer #2. Isn't that the same building? I also noticed that there are THRONES behind the four kids!!! *is suspicious*

  40. ibzan says:

    The scene of the Dawn Treader on the ocean looks awful to me. The rest of the trailer is epic; I'm so glad that the CGI looks so much better in general.

  41. Tribunal says:

    The visual effects are really ruining it for me, I'd say the first movie had much much better CGI. Also preferred Reep's voice in the last teaser.

  42. Mal says:

    Happy Birthday!!!

  43. Fire vein says:

    This is beyond awesome! It's BE-awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let it begin!!!!!!

  44. glumPuddle says:

    Unlike the firs trailer, which started with a joke, this trailer starts slow, and lets you feel like you're in this world. It builds up the suspense a little before it gets fast. At the beginning, it almost feels like Aslan is talking to the viewer.

    You have to watch this trailer from the point-of-view of someone who doesn’t know the story. There is an emotional link between everything. It tells a story. We hear Aslan at the beginning say “…you have returned for a reason.” Then Lucy slowly walking up to a mysterious book. The implication is that she’s going to find out the reason she has been called. This trailer lets you dwell on that idea of being called back for a reason before it starts throwing random stuff at you.

    It's not a great trailer. It's okay. It's just a lot better than the first.

  45. CEP Paul T says:

    Still no signs of a Dragonified Eustace. No shocker there. 😉

  46. LucyTheValiant says:

    i prefer the line "you have an extrodinary destiny…." in the first trailer, but overall this trailer looks really good. Caspian sounds so much more royal (i think its the change of accent) i just can't wait for the movie 🙂

  47. narnian resident says:

    i still think the first was better and more professional looking, but this one is great too. love the Lucy with the snow falling scene, she has the loveliest expression!
    wow, Caspian sounds VERY different. he really is back to the british accent. hearing it, i now miss the mediterranean accent. i still dont understand why they changed it.
    i saw absolutely nothing of Eustace or Edmund. you would think a new character would get more attention, like Caspian did in PC. but, i guess that was just because he was the title role. but hey! Eustace is just as important, if not more! im really hoping, if they make more trailers, they would show more of him.
    that scene with the pevensies walking side by side (all in narnian clothes too) is both strange and fascinating. i am really interested in what that scene is all about, and what the significance of Susan and Peter being there is.
    i think that voice, who's ever it is (i think the narator, or maybe coriakin) sounds a bit strange. didnt like that.
    over all, this is a very cool trailer. perfect for a simple DVD trailer, but i think the other was more fit for a real official trailer. it was better done, more professional in my taste. nothing against this one though.

  48. narnian resident says:

    i think maybe this is the teaser. it seems to be a very teaser-like trailer, if that makes sense.

  49. narnian resident says:

    hey, if you look at the sreen cap of the pevensies side by side, Susan is carrying her quiver. and im guessing Peter has his sword Rhindon. oh, and Lucy is so rediculously tall! she's as tall as Edmund and Peter! wow! boy, has Georgie grown! and i think i also see what looks like thrones behind them. hmm….this scene is so mysterious, i just cannot imagine what it could be for! im wracking my brain for theories, but i cannot think of any. anyone have ideas?

  50. narnian resident says:

    Ha, i was thinking the same thing, that Gaiman wrote the screenplay. it does seem very Neil Gaiman like. it has that aura.

  51. Arivas says:

    I agree Gpuddle! Do another analysis!

  52. narnian resident says:

    yes, i agree. that shot looked terribly done, and bad quality.

  53. Shastafan says:

    I enjoyed the first trailer, with it showing scenes from the book and having that adventerous theme. This trailer I enjoyed because of that Narnian feel, that this world is truly Narnia! I'm quivering in excitment right at this instant! This movie is going to be great, and now I'm positive of it going to be true (although I not overly sure)! About four months 'til it comes out! 😀

  54. narnian resident says:

    yes, the music is amazing! i have it stuck in my head now 🙂

  55. AWESOOOOOOOOMMMMMEEEE! Sorry, I was sooooo excited watching this! Same here, Nathan, his accent is now much more enjoyable! Now I won't have to cringe in theaters! 😉 I do like how the Brit accent is not too strong (that's if you noticed). It has a Meditteranean air to it; better than in Prince of Persia, where they had very strong british accents. I agree with everyone else, why does it have to be sooooooo short! I felt like it was 5 long seconds! FOX trailers really aren't that great though. I like New Line & Disney ones better. This trailer still feels like a teaser. Well, Aug., Sept, Oct, & Nov had better fly by fast.

    From Dictionary.com – voy·age (noun)
    1. a course of travel or passage, esp. a long journey by water to a distant place.
    2. a passage through air or space, as a flight in an airplane or space vehicle.
    3.a journey or expedition from one place to another by land.

    chron·i·cle (noun)
    1. a chronological record of events; a history.

    Taking all of the meanings of 'voyage' into account, most of the books either are voyage stories (VTD, SC, HHB, MN) or have voyage segments in them (LWW, PC, LB) so technically the trailer is actually correct. It's no coincidence Lewis named the series the Chronicles of Narnia. The books are, in a way, travelogues of journeys through another world.

  57. Yeah, souls is another way of saying people, because we have a body & a soul. I like the feel of this trailer better, it just needs MORE!

  58. Mirima Rosetrader says:

    Awesome!! It's neat to see some more clips! The first one was more moving than this one, but any trailer is great as long as it's got some more tiny snippets of the movie! 😀 Long live Aslan and sail on VDT!!!!
