The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader 3D Blu-ray Sony bundle Review

The third film based on C.S. Lewis's fantasy books, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader opens three years after the Pevensie children return from battling to restore peace to Narnia in The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. Edmund (Skandar Keynes) and Lucy (Georgie Henley) are still staying with Eustace (Will Poulter), while Peter and Susan have gotten older and moved on to school and America, respectively. Still as surly and unbelieving as ever, Eustace continues to mock his cousins for their Narnian fantasies. But when water begins spilling into their room from a painting hanging on the wall, all three young people are swept onto the decks of the sailing ship known as the Dawn Treader, which is afloat in the waters of Narnia. This time, there are no wars to be fought in Narnia. But it soon becomes evident that the trio is destined to help King Caspian (Ben Barnes) solve the mystery of the disappearance of the seven lords of Telmar, and prevent the ongoing sacrifices of large groups of Narnian people to the evil green mist. So begins a quest through uncharted waters that will require each of the children to resist temptations like beauty and power, and to conquer the darkness within themselves in order to defeat the threat to Narnia's people. The battle promises to yield unexpected heroes, and through their journey, Edmund, Lucy, Eustace, and even King Caspian and Reepicheep (voiced by Simon Pegg) each grow and mature. Eventually, Aslan (voiced by Liam Neeson) will ask each adventurer to make an important choice that will forever influence his or her future. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader features plenty of high adventure, sword-fighting action, and personal peril, and while it fails to fully capitalize on the characters' motivations or to earn viewers' full emotional investment, it is still a solid addition to the Narnia film series.

No DMR coupon, because this is from Fox. I've pre-ordered, but I'm curious if there will be a 3D-BD of this. Don't have a 3D TV, but I'll be getting one at some point and if I can future proof now, I'd like to.

The first two yes; this one no.

[spidy]

That seems odd seeing that cover without the typical Disney art around the pic.

Oh, and I forgot about the coupon. Guess I'll have to spend more to get Narnia this time. People complain about Disney MSRPs but I guarantee you this one will cost at least $5 more than what it would if it came from Disney and it won't have the DVD and DC (which doesn't really bother me but still).

[DJ Manyak]

no releases date = no bueno

[HDMe]

I knew Disney had dropped the franchise... and I wondered how that was going to go.

Did they keep any of the same actors?

However Fox releases will actually go on sale unlike Disney titles, so it's a trade off

Yes it will.

Loved part 1, Caspian not as much. I liked this book alot, will prolly be a blind buy for me.

I'm hoping for a STEELBOOK version to come out as well, that would be sweet.

I'm disappointed at the deleted scenes. This film apparently had a good deal of footage cut out, probably a good 15-20 minutes. Pretty much every scene had lines and shots trimmed off, and you can tell by the way the final cut's paced. I was hoping for an extended cut since Fox loves those, but it doesn't seem we're getting one.

In other news, the film is the first Fox film since Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel back in December of 2009 to break the $100 million mark domestically. It's right now at $367 million worldwide. With Venezuela and Japan the only countries left for the film to debut in, $400 million is definitely a lock. That's less than Prince Caspian overall (that one made $419), but Dawn Treader is actually going to do better internationally ($278 for PC, $266 and counting for VotDT).

Let's see if Fox is pleased enough by this to greenlight The Silver Chair.

When a fantasy film based off of a book is under 2 hours, its almost a certainty that it was cut up before release.

Look at the Golden compass. It was 113 minutes, but the actual full directors cut with original ending was closer to 160-170 minutes before the idiots at New Line decided to cut it up.

[anomaly7]

Saw this in theaters. Even though I didn't like it as much as the first 2, it was a decent movie I'll be adding to my collection. I just hope they make the next few Narnia books into films as well. After Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, this is probably the best fantasy series going right now.

True. I guess it depends on if you are willing to wait or not.
