I found the Doug Gresham cameo, and the little dog. I also took another look at Lucy's book on the beach, and you know, I think it just might be a Narnia book. The words are printed by machine, not by hand, so it's clearly from Earth. I guess we'll find out when the DVD comes out...
I thought I'd post this link to a picture of the DT cabin that a lot of us have mentioned. You can see not only some of the paintings there, but also two quotes we ought all to recognise...

I think Lucy's actually reading Dawn Treader on the beach as I mentioned previously, the title script on the page looks like it. We'll all be zooming in on that when the DVD arrives I guess.
On my 4th viewing I noticed more things I hadn't before...with the dialogue at the beginning Lucy who notices Eustace struggling in the water says "swim Eustace swim". It's a really small thing, but I wonder why I didn't catch that previously...
Another thing, I'm guessing there has to be a deleted scene that joins the one where Edmund chases Eustace upstairs after he's spitballed him and where Edmund's in Lucy's bedroom looking at the painting before they get drawn back into Narnia. It just didn't make sense that Edmund was running up the stairs and then all of a sudden sitting on Lucy's bed looking at the painting.

Who the heck is supposed to have taken that picture?
The picture must have been taken just after Peter's fight. Would the Pevensies have been in the mood to pose for a picture?
Does anything in this movie make any sense at all?

My thoughts exactly. It also didn't make sense that the picture was in color. Color photography existed back then, but it was rather rare and wasn't used by the general public until the late 1940s/early 1950s. This movie takes place in the early 1940s.
I think the picture was not necessarily meant to be taken the day that PC occurred. I'm sure the kids wore their school uniforms together fairly often, as they would spend nine months of the year at schools apparently across the road from one another. Though WE know the picture is from PC, it could be assumed that within the Narnia story, it was taken a day, a month, or even a year after or before PC.
I think you're right, ChristProclaimer. Color photo aside, we're really overthinking this one!

I personally think the set decorators were having merciless fun putting as many references from the previous films into the scene of this one, even if they didn't make any sense.

I really enjoyed looking for all the little extra stuff! I finally noticed the lamp post next to Susan as she writes the letter! And I also finally noticed Lucy's dog in her room at Eustace's house!
NW twin to Georgiefan! NW sib to 22!
avvie by AslansChild thank you!!!
BTW was Eustace supposed to be puking on the ship? Maybe Lu gives him the cordial between that and the "feeling better" part. I just couldn't figure out if he was coughing or...
I thought that he was just coughing the water up off his lung but I don't know? I really did want Lucy to use he cordial becasue otherwise what is the point in Caspian giving it her back. (I mean in the film not in an actual situation- what is the point in us seeing her get it back?)
It is safe to say that I missed a lot because I saw this twice and then came on here and everyone is talking about all these hidden things which I love finding
Can't wait for the DVD and especially the deleated scenes after all the speculation...!!!!
Narnia is childhood...
Seriously, just give the kid the orange. He needs his vitamin C!
The stain-glass window at the very beginning of the movie actually has the Dawn Treader on it! Next time you watch, pause the movie right as the Walden Media logo fades into the window and tilt your head sideways: you can clearly see the dragon-head prow, the tail, the lamppost (the one on top of the mast), as well as the purple sail!
I squealed a little
FYI to MinotaurforAslan: The color of the picture featured in susan's writing scene is not colored, it is in Sepia Tone used starting the 1880's and the picture used in painting scene is b/w
And I agree with ChristProclamer with his reason about the photo of the kids feature in susan's writing scene
I think the problem with the two commentator saying it doesn't make sense is because they don't like the movie in fact hate it and have no more time thinking clearly and logical ^^
-first post
I always thought the window had just a lamppost on it. Today I looked again, and now the window...just looks like a mess. The moon is in one corner, and the sun is on the other, the lamppost is in the middle, and the Dawn Treader is on the bottom. And...there's a lot of swirls and shapes.
I might have liked it better if they focused on one image instead of sworling them all together.
I'm not sure if this is the place for it, but did anyone notice the names and places on Caspian's map? There is a "Monster Water" located in the North sea off Ettinsmoor. A "Southern Jungle" is located just to the west of Tashbaan, and the Bight of Calormen (listed on canon maps) appears to have been renamed the Sea of Reeds, the Gulf of Thrate, and the Rat Cave (listed North to South along the Calormene coast).
Interesting.
The cor-dee-al cure for seasickness must be one of the deleted scenes, I saw it recently somewhere.
Did anyone else notice that the wall hanger for the ship-painting was shaped like a cross?
Missed that, but I noticed that the way the mast is arranged, it looks in many of the distant exterior shots like there is a big cross on top of the ship.

Let me ask a question. In the theatrical release, was there an invisible Aslan on the beach at the end?
On the DVD/Blu-Ray, when you see the shadows walking across the beach there is Aslan's shadow with nothing casting it.
I'm wondering if this was intentional or just an unforseen effect that happened because they expanded to a full 16x9 for the video release. The theatrical release was the same width but not as tall, and Aslan's feet may have been intended to be off-screen.
