Brandon Gray at Box Office Mojo has posted a short preview of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. You can read his piece by clicking here.
Gray reports little, if anything, about VDT that the fanbase didn’t already know, but he does analyze the film’s box office potential. After calling Prince Caspian a “disappointment” Gray states VDT will “sink further than Prince Caspian…it would take an extraordinary final product and marketing effort for Voyage to tread water.” In his view, working against VDT are the 2.5 year gap between it and Caspian, as well as the December release. And of course, he does make a comparison to Eragon and The Golden Compass, which did not perform strongly with December openings.
Its a unique take. He’s probably right about the film delays, but most seem to agree that moving VDT to December was a good idea. We shall see…
