I'm sorry; I had my clips messed up...it's in the "There's a Place for Us" video that there's a shot of Caspian walking through the wave. Why, I still don't know, but sorry about the confusion.
I saw the movie....and was disappointed
^^ huh, weird.....
I wonder what he's doing?
this movie will be so awesome!

Is he going through a door back to the ship? In the book he isn't with them at this point, and Aslan opens a door for the children to go home. Perhaps Caspian is sent first (so he isn't left alone at the end) and then the children.
And Reep isn't there, so he has already gone.
Yes, I think this is his 'door' to go back to his life.
There, shining in the sunrise, larger than they had seen him before, shaking his mane (for it had apparently grown again) stood Aslan himself.
"...when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor's stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backwards."
Part 1 of my detailed analysis of this trailer:
That was really cool, MinotaurforAslan! I do agree that at least the minotars and stuff look real, and the dragon looks awesome! I cannot wait to see Part 2 soon!
Sorry they don't actually show him sticking his arm in the wave. We see him walking towards the wave and then if you notice one of his arms is soaking wet. It has been like that in multiple trailers. I have no idea why he does this. This of course suggests to me that he sticks his arm in the wave though.
There are no clouds in the sky. There is only the open sun and the Lord watches.
Part 2 of my analysis...
Alright, MinotaurforAslan, time for my analysis of your trailer analysis
*I can't take you seriously with that bag on your head, I just can't
*You contradicted yourself in the two parts. First you were talking about how it was kinda senseless to say that the dragon, talking lion and magical island didn't look real enough. Then you went on to complain that the glow on the star/woman was too much and didn't look real. She's a walking, talking star who ends up marrying a human. What's real about that? Then you went on to talk about the tree and water spirits (can't remember their proper names right now). But they aren't real so who's to say they have to look this way or that way? Things don't always have to be confined to the way we think they should look. Just let fantasy be fantasy.
*The sword Coriakin is pointing to, the one in Edmund's hand, is not Rhindon. It doesn' have the Lion head. According to a few pictures and storybook SPOILERS Edmund is carrying Lord Bern's sword, which would be one of the seven.
*I still hold to my belief that the alternate form Lilliandil is speaking of is her star form. I don't see a reason why she couldn't talk in that form, it is fantasy after all. But your changing forms bit was hilarious I died laughing and had to revive myself in order to post this.
*I personally don't really have an issue with them setting up LotGK as the main villain for SC. *let the tomatoes fly* but LotGK never said all the world was under her in the book, so that wouldn't be a good reason. The quote you're refering to in The Silver Chair reads as follows:
"We had been told to look for a message on the stones of the City Ruinous," said Scrubb. "And we saw the words UNDER ME."
The Knight laughed even more heartily than before . "You were the more deceived," he said. Those words meant nothing to your purpose. Had you but asked my Lady, she could've given you better counsel. For those words are all that is left of a longer script, which in ancient times, as she well remembers, expressed this verse:
Though under Earth and throneless now I be,
Yet, while I lived all Earth was under me."From which it is plain that some great king of the ancient giants who lies burried there caused this boast to be cut in the stone over his sepulcher..."
So that was the boast of an ancient giant king, not LotGK. I think DI probably exists on its own like it did in the book, but I could be wrong. If LotGK is behind it I doubt that would even be revealed until SC.
Overall, I like the first two parts of your analysis. It isn't as negative as I thought it would be and it was quite entertaining in a good way good work.
*EDIT
I'm sorry; I had my clips messed up...it's in the "There's a Place for Us" video that there's a shot of Caspian walking through the wave. Why, I still don't know, but sorry about the confusion.
Ugh!!!!!! TOO MANY SPOILER!!!!!! Can't keep up with where I read them or how reliable they are but I think I read it somewhere on Narniaweb.
Again, I can't remeber where I read the spoiler and I don't know how accurate it is, but I do remember reading it.
Then you went on to complain that the glow on the star/woman was too much and didn't look real. She's a walking, talking star who ends up marrying a human. What's real about that?
My complaint is that the glow effect don't look at all. Having a thick layer of blue around you is not how a glow physically looks. I can more or less duplicate that in about 2 minutes on my own editing program, as I showed.
Then you went on to talk about the tree and water spirits (can't remember their proper names right now). But they aren't real so who's to say they have to look this way or that way? Things don't always have to be confined to the way we think they should look. Just let fantasy be fantasy.
They're not water spirits...they are completely different from the dryads and naiads. They to show that whole civilizations can exist where you would almost never see them, and further expand the scope of what the Dawn Treader has found. Having them appear looking like ghosts or just extensions of the water makes them appear to be naiads, which they are not.
The sword Coriakin is pointing to, the one in Edmund's hand, is not Rhindon. LotGK never said all the world was under her in the book, so that wouldn't be a good reason.
I stand corrected. I assumed it was Rhindon, because I didn't see why one sword would be so important over the others. My memory of that passsage in SC was apparently very fuzzy.
I still think them setting up LoTGK in this movie to be the villain in SC is a bad idea because we've had it confirmed from Mark Johnson that she will not appear in the movie. So if she were to be behind the green mist, she would have to be an unseen villain and the green mist would only be explained in the next movie. However, I think just having green mist as your chief villain is pretty weak.
Thanks for writing that! Feedback and criticism is always appreciated
So that was the boast of an ancient giant king, not LotGK. I think DI probably exists on its own like it did in the book, but I could be wrong. If LotGK is behind it I doubt that would even be revealed until SC.
I don't know. I always got the impression that the quote was referring to the White Witch and that the Lady of the Green Kirtle either lied to Rillian about it's origins or Rillian made a wrong assumption.
Winter Is Coming
About the stone writing in The Silver Chair, the Lady of the Green Kirtle was probably telling the truth- that the original inscription was
Though under Earth and throneless now I be,
Yet, while I lived all Earth was under me.
The makers of the structure never intended for Jill and Eustace, years later, to read 'under me' and realize where Prince Rilian was, but Aslan did. As far as the stone-workers were concerned they were just bragging about their king, but Aslan had other plans for the letters. Aslan, in his omniscience, inspired the stone-workers to build the letters, for their own purposes, so that Jill and Eustace would recieve their instruction.
I hope that makes sense.
The quote is
"Though under Earth and throneless now I be,
Yet, WHILE I LIVED all Earth was under me."
Are you suggesting that LotGK is dead in SC yet still holding Rilian captive? Why would she have the words "while I lived" cut in the stone? I was under the impression that she had never really been in power over anything or ruled anyone (except the earthmen) before the events of SC. Her plot with Rilian was her attempt at becoming royal, because she wasn't ever royal and in power in the first place. The only place she was queen of was Underland. The above quote wouldn't make sense unless she had already ruled some place and been overthrown, which is never hinted at in SC that I recall. I could be wrong. For that verse to be true LotGK would almost have to be Jadis back from the dead.
Anyway that was long and off topic. I really like the trailer.
MinotaurforAslan, you're very welcome for the feedback. I hate giving criticism, even the constructive kind. It makes me feel mean. I'm so glad you didn't take it that way.
"I stand corrected. I assumed it was Rhindon, because I didn't see why one sword would be so important over the others."
I don't think it's so much that Lord Bern's/Edmund's sword is more important than the rest of the swords, I think it's just the only one of the seven swords the crew has with them at that point in the film. I am guessing that in the actual film the line will be something like "That sword you carry, along with six others, must be laid at Aslan's table."
Just my thoughts. Sorry if they weren't clear. I've been sick for over a week now, and I'm really tired. I don't know if I can actually form a clear thought at the moment.
p.s.
"They're not water spirits...they are completely different from the dryads and naiads.

Yes, I know. In the book there are supposed to be Sea People and they are supposed to have this underwater kingdom. The watery people we see in the trailer aren't even being called Sea People. If you go on Narnia.com and go to Narrowhaven it refers to those creatures as "Water Nymphs". I don't know if they replace the Sea People or if they play an altogether different roll from the Sea People, but according to the website they are not Sea People so it doesn't really matter if they look like Sea People.

Was this directed at me?
If so you greatly misunderstood me. The Lady of the Green Kirtle was partly telling the truth. She was right when she said the stone inscription was made by an ancient giant king to preserve his legacy- at the time unrelated to The Lady of the Green Kirtle or Rilian (including the quest to find him).
Where the Lady of the Green Kirtle was mistaken was that it wasn't intended to help the kids find Rilian.
Even though the giant king made the letters for reasons unrelated to the quest to find Rilian, it's likely that Aslan influenced him to write them so that, years later, the kids could use it to find Rilian.
Does what I'm saying make sense? The giant king didn't intend the stone letters to be directions to Underland, but Aslan did.
Sorry. I must've posted that while you were posting your thing Reepicheep775. I didn't even see your post until just now. My earlier comment was directed at Josh, not you. I understood your post quite clearly.
Awesome. No worries.
