Bizarre images. Edmund holding Rhindon by the blade and Lucy looks like she is trying to hypnotize someone. The waterey background color reminds me of the Prince Caspian DVD.

Whhoooohh! Yeays.

I am certainly liking this. I adore the blue, it's really lovely.
I'm actually quite happy about the tag line 'Return to the Magic'. OK, not the most original thing I've ever heard, but if it does what is says on the tin then I shall be a happy bunny. Plus it does have a blockbuster-y vibe to it, no?

The images on the left, of King Caspian, Reepicheep and Aslan I think look awesome. The ones of the right though ... I think I approve of the idea, perhaps just not of the way it actually turned out. Edmund does just look a little off, as, I think, does Lucy. But then again, it is a funny shaped banner thing.

Hopefully official posters soon maybe? They usually come out before trailers right, or am I just too desperate for VoDT related stuff? Either way, the fact that things seem to be happening makes me smile. Slowly but steady wins the race people!

Take a look at this article from Empire: http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=27844

It says: Will Poulter seems perfectly cast as their awful cousin, Eustace (although with a name like Eustace, the poor kid has some reason to act out).

Now has the author of that article read the book or is it a coincidence?

AHAHAHAHA, For once in my life one of my theories turns out to be correct!!! And yet I was wrong at the same time because it wrapped around the other side.

EDIT: After looking more closely, it does wrap both sides and I THINK on the left side, it's the Dawn Treader's tail. That's cool.

The first thing I thought was, F_K is right!

Upon closer inspection of the poster, its arrangement does seem a little strange, even though I am still very glad to see something so...huge.

I know Lucy is supposed to be Lucy the Valiant, but she looks too dark or scary or something. I wish she had a different look about her -- more like in one of the pictures of her during PC.
And I really don't approve of Edmund holding Rhindon and just having Caspian's face. So, we'll just have to see.

Lovely, very lovely! So happy to see some advertising!

My biggest problem with Aslan is that his eyes appear to be yellow, whereas in the past they've been more green. I rather like these eyes, I just don't want the continuity to suffer.

Lucy looks so grown up! Too much photoshopping, but she still looks great. Apparently Edmund will have Rhindon for the battle, at least. It's an odd pose with the way he's holding it. Reep's color looks better. And, I like how the ship flanks both sides; it would have been nice to be in the center, but I like it where it is. It appears they're sticking with the capital "t" in the second "the."

My guess with the tagline is that it's an attempt to win back those that disliked PC on the basis of the magic being gone. Perhaps a bit dorky of a way to get those folks back, but it's better then "Triumph Over the Unfathomable Fate" or some such thing.

In fact, it probably has most in common with the awful PC DVD box-art in that regard (sparkly fairy dust and all), however it doesn't seem as forced and tacked-on as that did, so i'm less inclined to hate it.

I noticed the fairy dust as well. But, then I decided they were stars and that was a bit more fitting.

After looking more closely, it does wrap both sides and I THINK on the left side, it's the Dawn Treader's tail. That's cool.

I'm pretty certain it's the head on both sides, but the head and tail would have been very cool!

yay for better pictures of the banner!

why is Edmund holding the sword by the blade?????

why is Edmund holding the sword by the blade?????

I think he is holding it by the hilt.

I just love how he looks taller in the banner while every one else is bigger then him. I guess we will see once the actual poster comes out.

More pics here.

And yes, the Dawn Treader's helm on the left side too.

I definitely like the side with Aslan better than the other side. I didn't even notice the stars until some one mentioned them. I think part of the problem with Lucy is that she seems too made up. Her lips are too red and her eyes don't seem quite right - maybe too much outlining / shadow. Overall though, I think the pictures look much better than the ones from PC. Some characters had a scary / threatening / kind of seductive look about them.

Interesting thought about the PC posters, Pattertwig's Pal. I rather get the same feeling...

...They've spliced together several images for the shot of Edmund. His head obviously being one image, his body another and his sword another. [...] His body IS too big for his head.

You're right!

And the sparkles below Lucy are cheesy. But otherwise, I like it. And the background is not a watery blue, Icarus! It is a delicate, translucent ocean/sky color. With stars.

We're probably looking at most of the one-sheet in this banner. I think they probably cut out the individual people/characters and rearranged them for here.

I was thinking the same thing! And I'm not sure how I feel about that... I would prefer a better picture of Queen Lucy, for one thing. Something "Lucyer" , with more of a real look in her eyes.

I like it... all of it. With Ed they're trying to go for a look from down to up, making him seem taller. You know, the illusion of height. And in contrast Lucy seems to be bending forward. Ed looks out with a sword in hand ready for adventure and Lucy looks out ready for enchantment. I like how her eyes have been made to mirror the sea... nice touch. As for Eustace... his pose seems a little like mystery, as if we're not supposed to know really who he is (even though many of us do). His head is down a little, as if either thoughtful or resentful or both.
Comparing the Aslan in this poster to the others... He seems, how shall I say it, bigger? than the other movies? In the other movies His look was not so powerful as this. In LWW posters His look was relaxed and lofty, not really a look I would expect from Aslan. He seemed more of a character in the poster than the all-powerful deity that he was in the book (and that's how he was in the movie, so no real shock there). And as for Prince Caspian... well, you can't really compare... the picture is a little too dark and in the background. His picture in Caspian poster is actually better than LWW imo (funny, His role was better too, possibly the only thing about PC that I really really loved). So in any case, I really like the look He is giving you.
King Cas, looking out into the distance, with a strong look in his eyes yet his mouth open to take a breath of air to cool his jittery nerves. Nice... nice...
I haven't commented on Reep yet so here goes. AWWWW HE HAS A LITTLE BEARD!!! (got that out of my system!) So, he's in a pose that you might have seen him in in PC, as if to reassure people that although the voice is changed it's still Reep. He looks almost identical as PC (I'm not judging lighting right now) except the beard, so the beards are on our left of the poster? >.<

I absolutely adore this banner, although nit-picking at it seems heartless to me. The things we're seeing about this movie have me walking a very thin line between total thrill and absolute terror. VotDT has been my favorite book, always. It's scary to look at PC and think the worst but thrilling to look at LWW and hope for the move that will break your heart, and not from sadness

I know Lucy is supposed to be Lucy the Valiant, but she looks too dark or scary or something. I wish she had a different look about her -- more like in one of the pictures of her during PC.

I think it's important to remember that Lucy's darkest moment takes place during this adventure. And as far as making her look older i think its probably very much on purpose. In PC they did her hair in those funny braids in the train station to make her look younger and then let it down to make her look older.

I think he is holding it by the hilt.

that's what I thought, but if you look closely, you'll see that the hilt is in the air above his hand and sticking up on the banner! his hand is holding the blade!

Yeah I noticed that now. My friend collects swords and usually the blade towards the end of the hilt has a guard or something wrapped around it where people can't puncture their skin.

^^ oh! I didn't know that! well, for Skandar's sake, I hope that sword has a guard!
