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?
OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH!!!!
OMG i am soooooo excited.
OMG This is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3 Eustace!!!!!! The 1st clip is the best!!!!!! AHHHHHH!! I'm freaking out!
I know, me too! The first clip was amazing! I can't male myself watch the other to yet though; I don't want to get too many spoilers than I can handle. This is so exciting! 😀
Amazing?
Deep breaths Luckrocks…deep breaths.
awesome!!! 😀
i LOVE Eustace from the books, he is my favorite character among all of them, so you can understand my worry on how he will be interpreted onscreen. from what i've seen so far definitely does a Eustace fan proud! 🙂
I AM FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOHOOOOOOOOOO! Thanks Aslans Country! *BREATH* BREATH HO*! 🙂 🙂
Why, why, why, can't they just stick with the book for once? You know, C.S. Lewis _did_ write what he wrote for a _reason_! At least we still have the BBC versions.
What are you so upset about? The only thing they changed was instead of the gold being in a cave it was in a canyon and Caspian was in the boat. In my opinion both of these are better than the way C.S. Lewis did it.
ugh, are you kidding? I HATED the BBC ones! Except for the silver chair, that one wasn't bad.
I agree that they need to stick to the books. Everything that C.S.Lewis did was intentional, and they're messing it up. All their doing is causing themselves to lose money. If they would make it the way Lewis wrote it, then they would make more money than Lord of the Rings.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! any one here from Puerto rico!! i love this clip r awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!! i cant wait more i must see the movie now!!!!!!!!! this clips arnt finished, i think that the dragon(lord) will appear because when eustace put on the bracelet he looks at something and theres like dragons smoke all over the place!!! omg the sea of lielis!!
OHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!! My heart was racing for minutes after watching these clips. It looks SO GOOD!!!! I was so happy to see more of Eustace finally!! And Edmund and Caspian!! This movie is going to be so good!! I hope my parents will let me go see it in the theatre when it comes out. 🙂
Oh, and I love Drinian's accent too!! 😀
I love Drinian's accent too! It actually sounds Telmarine/Mediterranean! That's weird. I thought they said the "Telmarines" were all going to have British accents now. Unless they happen to have Drinian be a Lone Islander, & some Lone Islanders have Mediterranean accents. *is slightly
confused/curious but excited anyways.
Looks good but Im very skeptical of the kid play Eustace. In that first clip his acting was not that good. I will reserve judgment since he was slightly better in the last.
AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! *lovelovelovelove* These are sooo cool!!!
Oh man these are by far the best clips! Finally some of Caspian talking!
Cool.
Awesome clips!!! I love Eustace!!! This movie will be the best of the three!!! Long live Aslan and Sail on VDT!
i love all of them,there so good! can't wait sail on VDT
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS IM SO SIKED
Mostly encouraging stuff! 🙂
I'd have to agree that the clips are mostly encouraging. Though to me, they raise more questions than the first trailer did.
I hope you plan on analyzing them on your youtube channel. I've enjoyed watching those vids.
*LOST SOULS!*
😛
Yes glumPuddle, I would love for you to do videos on this footage. You don't know how much I look forward to your analysis on news. Especially video related news. 😉
Ah GlumPuddle, as another faithful viewer of your YouTube channel :D, I'm glad to hear you say so!
I don't know whether I'm going to like all the changes they're making. Just about any changes to the book make me nervous…I'm just a crazy purist like that. But I think I'm going to be ok with most of these………..
Yeah, I look forward to hearing your analysis. Thanks!
Nice! Though it seems to me that it is straying from the book… alot. But 'tis interesting!
I'm going CRAZY right now!!!!!! …..what more can I say? I'M SOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!
🙂 🙂 🙂 The movie looks so good already!!!! And I absolutely love the way Will made Eustace act…. He made him the kind of bully you feel like you could actually thoroughly HATE! And yet later, I like him!!!! Yay! …lol
I love them! I think the the last one is my favorite. Not quite sure I like the changes they made in the second video, though. All in all, very nice; I love spoilers 😀
you know, i love how Lucy says "Aslan's Country", almost in a dreamy sort of voice. lovely 🙂
I think he's a great Eustace! I don't have time to watch the third clip, but the only thing that bothers me so far is the skeleton in clip two. What happened to the golden statue???
In the book, the gold statue is on Deathwater island, in the water that turns things to gold. Eustace finds treasure and becomes a dragon on Dragon Island. The bracelet he finds belongs to a lord who's body is never found. The crew assumes that lord either turned into or was eaten by the dragon that Eustace saw die.
You are so right! I have no clue where my mind went. I mean… I've only read the book like a dozen times and listened to it on tape/CD multiple times a year since I was eight. =P
EUSTACE IS PERFECT! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! AWESOME! 😀
hey, anyone notice? I don't think these are the *full* scenes because in the Aslan's Country one Lucy was in her red vest hair up etc, in the second white shirt hair down? 🙂 So these are definately edited/cut down I think 😀 But they are DEFINATELY awesome! Can't wait for December! 🙂 Eustace is perfect!
Yeah, I was thinking that, too. Especially since the music is the same as in the trailer. It still has that 'preview' feel to it or whatever you want to call it. =D
They're definitely edited down versions of the scenes, and the music is clearly not the actual score music that will be in the final film. But this looks encouraging.
yep! And when Eustace was talking about being 'undragoned' hurting it looked like that was a voice over too, because you never saw his lips moving for that, but then it seems to 'jump' a bit to 'I think I was a better dragon than a boy' etc. So… maybe the voice over is from when Edmund first finds him and they just cut/edited it to this preview for us 😀
Awesome!!!! Much more promising than the trailer… :)) I wonder why Eustace says "two orphans"??
Yeah, does he just mean their parents and su and peter are gone, or is Apted taking more liberties…???
it's probably just Eustace being Eustace for ya 🙂
I am not at all impressed with any of these clips. The acting seems stilted and unrealistic, and Caspian looks even more pathetic on video than he does in the photos. My hopes have just basically disappeared, and I can't hope for any better on the next movie, if they even are able to make it…
I'm sorry you feel that way. I think it is very interesting how different people perceive the same thing differently. After watching the trailers I thought the movie would be just okay. But now I'm thinking it will actually be pretty good.
I don't like how they're edited, but I'm sure that's just for the clip. The colours in the third clip are amazing, and you can tell it's filmed on digital. But it looks spectacular. It's so surreal like the end of the world should be.
I never thought of dragon island as being such a desert, but I suppose it works. And Gael has a line!!!
like your username 🙂 perhaps i can guess you've possibly read The Silmarillion? the story of Beren and Luthien is one of my favorites
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.
Cool! I am a bigger Tolkien nut than Narnia also. I'm starting to read the Silmarillion.
*squels in happiness*
Did you notice the picture on the nightstand when Eustace is sitting on the bed? (Around the 30 second mark) I think that's a picture of Peter and Susan…Hmmm…
By jove, I think you're right!
Yes! I see it too.
Oh, my gosh, no way! I'll have to check that out! How did i miss that?
Am I the only one who thinks the scenes feel 'rushed'? I think they edited this for screening purposes, otherwise I am not that all impressed. And, secondly, why they spoil it for everyone that Eustace became a dragon???
Still, I'm pretty excited 😉
Yeah, they are very obviously rushed. I'm 100% they will not appear this away in the film.
Yeah, notice how the videos say "created especially for Fun-for-the-Whole-Family Hour". I'm also 100% sure that in the movie the scenes will be much less rushed, and with different music.
I noticed that too. It is most possibly & certainly edited. And I think that the scenes are probably were not finished (the cgi is a little unperfected), since they were most likely published before the trailers, maybe. Some of the shots also might be deleted; in one of the PC trailers there was a deleted shot. Anyways, I can finaly watch Caspian with ease, since he looks sooo much better than in PC, & that he has no Mediterranean accent. Skandar is ok, he was good in clip #1. Eustace & Lucy were ok. (The acting needs more perfection.) Hopefully the movie will be well edited, directed & flowing & the acting will be better; & they will not stray too far from the book. Oh & better CGI.
Wow. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Can you believe we only have 112 more days to wait?!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MMMMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GGGGGGOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I Need to see the movie!!! This Makes me even MORE EXCITED FOR THE MOVIE!!!!!!!! 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
I'm glad to see these clips, but I'm really hoping these aren't the final edits. It seemed really choppy and the music was…weird. There was just something off about it. But I was SO EXCITED to finally see Eustace!
The clips were ok, but am I really the only one that thinks the acting was horribly stiff if not bad??
I mean yes, these clips are a lot better than the trailers but surely the acting could be a lot better than what the clips indicate. 😛
yeah, not to sound rude, dear, but I think it IS just you who thinks that, probably. I personally thought the acting was great; I liked Skandar's performance, especially. The way he flipped out on eustace when he repeats, "Hideous burden" looked almost exactly like Peter's expression in LWW when he says, "You just have to make everything worse don't you?"
And Georgie was adorable as usual even though she's older here. So far, I love Will Poulter as Eustace, i have to say, he is way better than the BBC one.
Actually some other people have been saying that too, although I don't agree with it. I'll admit it will take me a while to get used to the new Eustace. I thought David Thwaites in the BBC version was so VERY good, the perfect Eustace as far as I'm concerned.
I agree. I was not impressed by the acting at all. Eustace's acting was horrible in the first clip. Although it did sound like they were voice overs recorded for the sake of the clips.
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 agree, i noticed the same thing, but i remember in the books it says they become stronger after taking in the narnian air. perhaps they are supposed to be blah, bored, more weak in our world then grow in power and regal-ness (if that's a word)
woahhhh it looks pretty awesome, although i am sad that they changed the line of undragoning from picking a scab to pulling out a thorn, cuz i found the scab totally relate-able… i'm kinda doing that right now… but i really like edmund's rhyme 🙂
Yeah, Edmund's rhyme is hilarious! I remember reading that scene in the book, and I love that although they didn't use the "narnia and balmier" rhyme that Eustace originally used, I'm glad they still have him rhyming in the movie, especially since Edmund rhymes back! 😀
omg all three clips was awsome i cant wait to see the dawn treader when it hits theaters
" There once was a boy called Eustace, Who read books full of facts that are useless." Haha Good one Ed! But seriously though, I hope Peter, Susan, and their parents aren't dead. Did you notic that Lucy said "We're home." at the very begining. And Eustace called them orphans! meanie. Although that would explain why Ed is acting the way he is. Although I don't blame him for getting ticked when Eustace said they where "Hideous burdens." Can't wait for the movie!!!!!
I noticed he said orphans too… does that mean anything???? It better not!
I highly doubt. To me, it seems that Eustace is calling them orphans because are off somewhere else, and as for Lucy calling, "we're home!" I imagine she wasn't really stating it was there home. After all, I've called places home even if it isn't true.
This makes me nervous…I don't trust the producers after Prince Caspian's loose adaptation. I hope they don't kill off their parents. Also, I hope they didn't screw up the scenes in Dragon Island. Wasn't the arm ring in the dragon's lair?
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.
can someone give me these youtube links?
I really like the first clip.
I AM SOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!
EEEEK, love these clips so much, especially the first and second ones.
"There once was a boy called Eustace, who read books full of facts that were useless" Nice one Ed!
I also particularly love Skandar's acting in the second video, Ed seems so guilty and sad. Good one Skandar!
I also just noticed that in the second clip, Caspian has Rhindon again…..:S
cool, love rhrindon!
I LOVE THIS VIDEOS !!!!!! IS BEST!!!!!!!! 3>
Very cool!! I'm just…wow. I'm really impressed with Dragon Island and with the rhyming.
These have definitely been 'clipped' for viewing. I don't think this is what they will look like in the film.
Is anyone doing screensaps of these?
Hey! If you watch the first clip of the Pevensies in Eustaces house, and if you look in the background when Eustace/Edmund start fighting you can see Lucy's stuffed dog from the first movie (that she had on the train!) 😉
Really? That's cool. Doesn't make sense, though, seeing as in the extended version of LWW, she gives it to Edmund who in turn snottily gives it away to some kid they don't know sitting across from them on the train. I haven't the foggiest idea how she would have gotten it back, LOL. Think she snatched it from the kid? Just kidding.
Mindblowing stuff I must say! This movie is going to rule the seas and rock the boat! Drag on it as soon as possible!
Eustace is Genius! Power Of Will for such a great portrayal!
They're really good, but I hope they're the edited version.
Wow, this is awesome!!!!!!! I'm so excited I can barely think what to write!
oh my goodness this is so exciting!! we FINALLY get to hear more of Caspian's voice… and I love it! I also love Ed in the 2nd clip. The last trailer concerned me a bit… but now I am absolutely THRILLED!!
aw gail's voice is so cute and edmund sounds like peter from lww feeling guilty for eustace situation, tho he looked more like troy bolton from HSM in the face. I love redeeemed eustace ireally hope SC is made
Allthough this footage was very encouraging it makes me ask more questions then it does answer them. But for the most part I think there geting it right. Good to see lots of Eustace and Caspian!
Wow! Three new clips! I'll have to blog about these.
Mostly good, though there's some definite restructuring to what's going on.
Totally Awesome!!!!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀
OH MY GOD! THAT WAS SSOOOOOOO AWESOME! I LOVE EDMUND! <3
AND EUSTACE IS PERFECT! 😀
you know, im beginning to notice how Eustace's voice changes from the scenes when he's still a mean boy and the scene in the lily lake, after he changed from a dragon. in the first 2 clips, his voice is very harsh and edgy, very mean and annoying, but in the third clip, his voice is gentle and sweet. i absolutely love that! i wonder if they did it on purpose, or its just Will's great acting, or it just somehow came out like that. either way, its such a nice touch to his character 🙂
Why Is Caspian going To Aslan's kingdon? Who's the little girl on the ship? Is that a pic of Susan and Peter on Lucy's nightstand at 30 sec? Why are they all so old? Why doesn't Caspian have a whole clip to himself? Why isn't anyone eating PUDDING? MUFFINS? OH THE HORROR!!
Rant done. Love the clips.
YAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
omg omg omg!!! more excited then ever 2 c the movie now, the 3 clips are awesome, from the clips, i think it's gunna be the best narnia film so far!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂
Still deciding whether or not I want to risk the spoilers in the 2nd and 3rd videos.
I'm very pleased with Will's portrayal of Eustace in the first vid, though. He's very much the hateable bully, like Lewis intended, but there's something about him that makes you know that he really, truly *wants* to be liked, possibly even jealous of Edmund and Lucy's niceness, which I think is also something Lewis intended.
I was appalled at the editing, however. The dialogue/blocking didn't seem to flow very well at ALL. I saw other comments here, though, noting the same thing, and it's probably not the full scene. I hope not. 🙂
All in all, I'm getting excited. Best portrayal the characters in ANY of the films. Best film ever?? I may not be disappointed…
WOW just WOW. That new kid is good.
My heart is beating so fast right now. Hurry up December! I can't wait much longer.
This can't be the final cut. The transitions are all messed up. Especially in the last clip. Right after Caspian stops talking it goes to the next clip and it's really scratchy and doesn't look very good. Also, the colors look off.
EUSTACE IS AMAZING!!!! absolutely perfect!! love it! can't wait until december
Holy cow!!!!
Very cool stuff.
Nothing negative to say here except I didn't care for the editing of a couple of the clips. Felt very choppy, but I understand that was probably because it's for an advertisement and most likely not exactly how it will look in the movie. Also the background music is from the trailer. I wonder if that is part of the film score? Then again, the score may not be completely written and recorded yet. Again, I'm just very thankful to see these clips and as other have said, it's encouraging and it looks like they're going in the right direction. 🙂 Yay! Also we see a brief appearance of Gail… Hmmmm, interesting. Not sure how big of a part she'll play in this film.
Did they make Lucy and Edmund orphans now? I got my Eustace talks to Edmund scene! But it's disapointing that Edmund doesn't mention he was a traitor.
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
Dang, these are so adictive!
hey did any body notice what Eustace said there once where two ORPHANS WHO WASTED THERE TIME.BELIEVING in NARNIA NURSERY RIMES
