As you can see from the pictures below...

Gulliver's Travels: 1280x544


Voyage of the Dawn Treader: 1280x720


Voyage of the Dawn Treader is clearly full screen compared to Gulliver's Travels which is 2.35:1/2.40:1

Update:
Amazon has it listed as 1.78:1 aspect ratio

Wow! This list/thread is alive again! A lot of submissions...
Thank you both for your contributions. Obviously, it adds to the list, which is simple enough, but you guys are making the list more comprehensive and full which is very much appreciated.

Thank you for confirming them with your own eyes. It is what makes the list unique and special and you contribute to that.

I see both your points. Again, please keep in mind that, although you obtained an early copy of the movie, we still cannot be 100% physically sure that it will display fullscreen because the official bluray hasn't been released yet until April 18th. I highly expect it to be fullscreen because of what your copy displays, but since it is yet to be released, we couldn't be too sure. Also, not that I am trying to disprove you or anything, but because you said you used VLC Player to take the snapshot, I know that VLC player can also resize/change a movie's aspect ratio display (as well as many other computer video players). Another thing to consider (based off your amazon url) is that you are referring to the UK amazon site that the data/specifications are showing up that it is in 1.78:1. The thing about that is, although I don't know of any precedent where this was the case, it may/could be that the UK version of the bluray is one aspect ratio while the US may be another. I can't recall for sure, but I believe I saw this once on a Region 2 bluray vs. a Region 1 (PAL vs. NTSC). I know certain blurays have released on Region 2 and still have yet to be released in the US/Region 1. It is because of these discrepencies that I started this list/thread to keep track of movies that may be misinforming and put up those that are physcally confirmed rather than taking the box/website specs at face value. I am not disproving or doubting your findings, but those facts may weigh into the confidence in the proof.
But, i can't imagine why one would go through the trouble of lying/tricking/falsefying it, so that in itself is reason for me to believe your claims/proof.
