Some Pictures Of The Dawn Treader From Up In The Sky!!
Merrick here...
Over the past few months, we've received some (conspicuously good) "spy" photos of the Dawn Treader from director Michael Apted's forthcoming THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA: THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER. You can find 'em HERE and HERE.
Tracy Emin's Left Tit sent in these new aerial photos of the same vessel - making me wonder how, exactly, that tit went airborne in the first place. And, what's the other one up to?

yay?

...has just signed on to star in "Little Fockers," opposite Ben Stiller and Robert DeNiro. Tracy Emin's right tit will play an attractive pharmaceutical rep who's good looks wreak havoc on the men in the story.

We don't live in Europe. Its amazing how this movie is getting made while everyone talks about what a bomb it was. Since when did american studios care about European box office numbers?

George Lucas Take Notes- Its not a CG Ship
by daniel_larussos_gonna_fight
That looks Kickass
-
This is stupid...
-
Particularly that shot from a previous article where a security guard is just sitting their calmly watching someone take pictures of something he's supposed to be guarding. The reason he wasn't perturbed is because it was a known marketing person taking the pictures. This slow leak of more and more pictures is a way to keep us talking about the project. The ship looks great by the way.

Saying "Wait a minute... they BUILT it? Why? Where is the green screen? This is confusing!"
-
They probably fired his poor ass and sent him back to Wal-Mart to work as a greeter. These movies don't blow me away but I've been pleasantly surprised at the production quality thus far. And my kids seem to enjoy them so bring it on.
-
i've had detailed meetings with high exectutives, you guys are going to really love what we are doing with this movie. The boat is scary magnificant close up, i had chills!

Wowee, I'd sure like to see that thing in an actual scene
by yotzvonfrelnik
Not dissing the project, but arrrgh, when are we going to see it in some setting other than dry dock? Or the earlier photos that looked like the early set up stage of the town carnival?

I'm also working on this film right now
by christian_bale_trashed_my_lights
Sometimes i wave at JettL93 from the ship. He no wave back.This make me feel terribad.

I hope this flick is better than the Lord-of-the-Rings-wannabe flick Caspian. That wasn't a BAD film, exactly, it just wasn't a good adaptation of a good book. It also screwed up some of the characters, like Susan and Reepicheep. Hope this one does better. It'd have to bust its balls to do worse.
-
I'm guessing they have it on that peninsula so they can have the ocean always in the background? It also appears to be on a giant turn table so they can always have the water in view of the camera, pretty clever if that's the case.
-
... a really big version of that crazy boat that took Jimmy and Freddie to see Witchiepoo... and that ain't all bad. Unless it turns all evil like that one did.

The first two movies in this series were brutally underwhelming, in my opinion, therefore I've been indifferent toward a third film. Andrew Adamson did a great job directing his "Shrek" stories, but seemed to lose his way on the "Chronicles of Narnia." The script was poor, the visuals were beautifully rendered but meaningless due to the poor script, and, most damningly, by the end of the film I didn't give a shit about any of the kids. Literally, I didn't fucking care.
Which was amazing, considering how much I loved the earlier film version of "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe." Something about the child chemistry was horribly off. Maybe the script just never tapped into quietly heartfelt moments that would've made us care about the Pevensies. I don't know.
That was, until I read that Michael Apted, one of my favorite directors out there, had taken over directing duties. I mean, NOW I'm fucking interested!
I hope he erases Adamson's amateur take on the story and knocks it out of the park. -
For some reason, the second half of my entry was erased when I clicked "Post." Fuck.
I don't feel like re-explaining everything, so I'll just say that since Michael Apted is onboard for the third film, I'm now excited as hell to see what he'll do with it.
Adamson tried and failed. Apted's a much better director who understands drama, so I hope he hits it out of the park! -
The sandwiches the caterer brings in are fantastic! You guys would really be pleased. There's Ruebens, clubs, Turkey and Cheddar, Chipotle mayo, it's fantastic!

What this site really needs is at least thirteen more articles on this boat. Sure we've seen it, but there's still at least a few more angles it could be seen from. And of course, this is only necessary due to the overwhelming buzz pouring out about this project. The hype is deafening. Can't you feel the excitement teeming out of this very talkback?!?!
-
It looks like it's still flooded at 6 Flags over Atlanta.
-
When have i never waved back at you, i'm always friendly when i'm on set. thats why so many directors share secrets with me. Next time you see me, indroduce yourself because i'm starting to think you don't actually work on set with me
-
Has is got a Mercury or an Evinrude?

Thomas Haden Church, James Purefoy and Mark Strong have joined the cast of joined "John Carter of Mars," Disney's adaptation of the Edgar Rice Burroughs book series that Andrew Stanton is directing. Church plays Tal Hajus, an ambitious and vicious Thark warrior who is biding his time to be a ruler. Purefoy plays Kantos Kan, the captain of the Xavarian, the kingdom of Helium's grand warship. Strong is Matai Shang, the ruler of the Thems with godlike status.
-
Due to budget constraints, we're just going to be using scenes from the first two movies and green screen the boat in whenever possible.

It looks less like a carnival ride from that angle
by grammaton cleric binks
than earlier photos we saw. Half the battle is just making it look like a real ship.
-
I hope that's low tide so they can actually get the water anywhere near the ship. I asssume they'll CG in the water in the front of the boat, but it's so far back behind it that I'm sure that would limit their shots choices.
-
THAT LOOKS SO COOL OMIGOD I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE these pictures are so cooollll holy shit
-
Hardly as if anyone gives two shits for this fag-dance franchise anyway.
-
I love the Narnia films more than anything since well...1982? Evebn then they hold more power over me than that blessed time o' fantasy flicks.
-
Meet God's Brother. You two should have a lot to argue about.
-
Meet Sith Witch. You two should have even more to argue about.
-
I do not think this words means what you think it means.
-
Can we start a line for this now?
The last film was one of the most "adult" concept films wrapped up in the cloak of believable fantasy I've ever seen. -
Yup, that's the new, updated version of Jabba's sail barge. Comming to a redbox dvd kiosk near you soon.
-
It looks great in real life, but will look awful on film. Why? It's too big.
-
Filming has been halted because whiney Miley Cyrus has refused to don the famous "slave leia" metal bikini. Her agent confirms that filming will resume when the bikini is remade out of gold, and that Miss Miley is allowed to keep the item after the project is completed.
-
. . . being disassembled at the Missouri State Fair. Arkansas State Fair or bust!
-
"Strong is Matai Shang, the ruler of the Thems with godlike status. "
If that's true, that confuses me, because that character shouldn't show up until the second book. He wouldn't fit anywhere in "Princess of Mars". -
Man, fate bring us together on this talkback. Btw, i was fired for leaking these pictures...
-
Grounded doing shit........

"Since when did american studios care about European box office numbers?"That could quite possibly be the most mind-numbingly arrogant comment I have ever seen, even for a blindly patriotic American with no knowledge of anything outside his own borders.On any given film, it is normally a safe assumption that 50% of its income for both cinema and DVD releases will come from OUTSIDE America. In fact, the highest grossing film of all time (Titanic, obviously) only made about 33% of its income in America (approx. 600 mil US gross, compared to 1.8 billion worldwide). Studios rely on the American gross to cover the cost of making and marketing the film and rely on the foreign gross for profit.If you don't think a major international company like a movie studio gives a shit about 50% of their income (and probably closer to 70-80% of their profit) then I will gladly accept half your salary for the rest of your life.There's a reason human beings are born with a brain. Try using the fucking thing

as i live walking distance. I'm so cool
-
they have a grand stand built so people can watch the production
-
Hmm, looks pretty smooth to me...

it sank.

..the less I like it. No, that's not a real ship: that's a garish funfair ride. It's absolutely hideous and looks like the product of a diseased and decedent civilisation; the funeral barge of some deranged and syphilitic fascist emperor. I know boats and that is one ugly ass boat.
