Alice Was Wonderful in Mimaland

Alice In Wonderland.
Not a review.
ALice in Disneyland?
Alice in Netherland?
Alice in Bolehland?
Alice in Legoland?
Alice in Mimaland?
Ali in Bumiputraland?



First things first.
The 3D is not worth it.
It's nice and all,
But after Avatar, all other 3D not worth it anymore.
But the movie itself is not bad.
I kinda liked it.
It's not spectacular, but at least it was entertaining.



My only SLIGHT disappointment was Johnny.
I expected the Mad Hatter to be well, MADDER.
Instead, he was er.. HATTERer.
As in he made more hats than he was mad.
Oooh, but The Red Queen was EXCELLENT!
Helena and her BIG HEAD!
And Tweedledee and Tweedledum!
TWEEDLEWHEEEEEE!



Oooh, Snape is a caterpillar!
And Stephen Fry is the Cheshire Cat!
And Christopher Lee is the Jabberwocky!
And Anne Hathaway as the White Queen! So Flouncy!
And that Miz Wazernamekowski is quite pretty too.
A bit kayu, but cute. :-D



The Land certainly was Wonderful.
Almost as wonderful as the Disney cartoon one.
Though I think I still prefer the Disney one.
Burton's Wonderland a bit scary.
But I still liked it.
But mostly because of the Red Queen.
OFF WITH HER HEAD!!!!

Wonderland Has Wonderful Posters

Whether the movie will live up to expectations remains to be seen, but for now, Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland is looking pretty damn wonderful.

The trailer was wonderfully weird, and GOD DAMN the posters look awesome:



Alice is very pretty, no? The White Rabbit looks a bit scary though, I'm not sure why.



A caterpiller with Alan Rickman's face! And the Mad Hatter! (he looks like a combination of a very drunk Jack Sparrow and Willy Wonka...)



OOOOOH, the CHESHIRE CAT! WHEE!

I have GOT to get my hands on ALL THREE POSTERS! They would look gorgeous on the wall....

Mad Hat Depp Is At It Again!

We interrupt the slew of Transformers-related posts on EoE today for a special Johnny Depp news flash.

Yes, the one-time heart-throb of 21 Jump Street, who will be appearing in Michael Mann's Public Enemies as himself (well, as a Johnny Dillinger who looks like Johnny Depp anyway) will next be appearing in another movie as a character that doesn't look one bit like Johnny Depp.

Presenting.... The Mad Hatter from Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland!



Reminds me of a cross between Willy Wonka and a broom. Should be interesting to see how whacky he gets in this role this time. It IS called the MAD Hatter after all... Hey, maybe after this Christopher Nolan could get Depp to join the Batman movies as the Mad Hatter as well. He wouldn't even need to change his makeup!

Oh, other than that, head over to USA Today or Empire (which links to the USA Today article that HAD the pictures but are no longer there strangely... gone down the rabbit hole, perhaps?) for pictures of Helena Bonham Carter as the really weird Red Queen (OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!) and Anne Hathaway as the White Queen

Ooh, and if you head over to USA Today, you can check out some really cool concept art for the movie in a stranely fascinating interactive image... click on the white rabbit below to check them out!
