I love everything about this poster! Everyone looks good, the dragon and the ship looks good even the WW looks good (sorry people but she is in the film, time to let it go and hope for the best) I'm just happy to see that Susan and of course Peter isn't on it!

@ Patterwig's Pal, He's in front of Aslan, or do you mean that your happy that he's not on the logo itself?
Anyway, love the musical swords idea, that made me laugh

Awesome poster, but what is the White Witch doing there? She's not in the book. *sigh* I'll have to shout at the screen again.

OK, so there are couple good points. Lucy does look slightly better (at least in low res!). They used a different shot of Reepicheep from the one they've been fixated on before. Annnd the sail is purple (even if it is backwards still). Eustace, the water, and the stars all look good.
But on the whole, this is an unattractive poster.

I don't think it looks too bad. The Dawn Treader looks best to me and is prominent along with Aslan. Nice to see Will Poulter there but not the White Witch. (But I understand why: for all the nonreaders who now think she is in every story. )
My first thought of Dragon Eustace was more like "Dragonfly Eustace". My first impression was that he had an insect like quality about him. But those who have seen the recent previews said he looks good and like a dragon so hope abides.

Ok... That is a major photoshop error.
They used Flip Horizontal to rotate the ship to the angle they wanted. That's why the N is backwards. I used to use that option until I saw what it did with text. They could have at least flipped that portion of the canvas with the N in it so it would be the correct direction.
I like the overall feel of the poster, especially the bright and vibrant colours, and the image of Eustace as a boy, but I'm not entirely sure about everything else... except for maybe the Dawn Treader. I like how it's positioned on the poster, even if the sail is backwards. I do majorly dislike the White Witch and Dragon Eustace though.... the latter, as others have so eloquently put it, looks really rather bad. (As in, bad image design & etc, and not bad evil.)

Reep: "CHEESE! Where?!"
Lucy: "Does this weird makeup make me look pretty?"
EustaceDragon: "Why me! Eustace, the cuddly, pig like dragon, what will Alberta think? She hates pigs!"
Aslan: "Well I was out in the woods camping, and I forgot my razor"
Caspian: "I am Prince Caspian!"
Eustace: "I am surronded by weird peoples"
White Witch: "Well, I don't know why I'm here, but I'm getting paid so its all good!"

Sigh. Another peice of horrible advertising. When are they going to get it right, I've never blended pictures in my life and I could do it better then the guys they pay to make a horrible poster like this. I'm really down right now. Hey if the movie makes a 5-6 Million I'll say this was a great poster! However right now I would be suprised if it made it to 4-5 Million. Good thing is they only spent 150m on this thing, even if it made 4 million they would still make 250m, slightly more than last time! Woot!!!!

Camera man: "Say Cheese!"
Reep: "CHEESE! Where?!"
I think the cameraman was holding a big piece of delicious swiss cheese in a way that said "This is for you." That's why Reep has such a big smile.
Hope there are even more and better posters yet to come. But this will do for now and more people will be aware of VDT's coming release.

I don't like the look of Dragon Eustace, but I do like the look of the poster now that it has been cleaned up. It looks like how I envisioned the movie and all it's brightness should be, despite the Dark Island.
