Missed this while out on my little trip and was really curious to see what people thought. Seems pretty cool, but it also seems like it might be a bit of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with a new coat of paint.

Looks great to me! Johnny Depp and Tim Burton – I mean, it’s going to be awesome!!!
Charlie&chocolate factory could never match the wonderful weirdness that was the original movie/musical.
This however somehow feels good & appropiate for the setting/theme.
Has there ever been a real-life ‘Alice in Wonderland’-movie ?
It looks OK but I really want the American McGee’s Alice movie to be made.
It looks like it will just be a live adaptation of the disney animated movie. With a mix of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass… Something that just doesn’t make any sense! I’m quite disappointed by Burton on this one.
Oh, and yeah, I totally want the American McGee’s Alice movie to be made!
Wow, I can’t believe they made Helena look like that as the Red Queen. XD
Haven’t we seen a half dozen weird and wacky takes on Alice already? This didn’t look significantly better, or different from that matter, than any of the previous versions?
Looks freaking sweet.
Since it’s being done in conjunction with Disney and being a bit of a Disney junkie I am excited to see it. Stephen Fry as Cheshire Cat, Alan Rickman as Caterpillar are both a big plus for me as well.
I do believe it is a mix of “Alices adventures in Wonderland”, “Through the Looking Glass”, and “The Looking Glass Wars”. At least that is what I was told when my company was working on the movie. I’ve read to both the Lewis Carroll books, but haven’t gone through the Looking glass wars yet. That telescope was a piece of work, lemme tell you!
I had heard that this was happening awhile ago, but it’s much better than I imagined… looks really clever!
lovin’ anne hathaway
I definitely need to see this in 3D.
I read somewhere that it is more of a sequel to the Disney movie, where she returns after ten years to find that Wonderland is in trouble and needs her help to stop the Red Queen.
Well Alice did eat shrooms, so lookin
all trippy is ok with me
If my name doesn’t tip you off, this movie has a lot of expectations to meet up to. Which sadly- I’m afraid may not happen. Ah well. I trust Tim enough to not ruin my favorite story.
Looks interesting… I would be ticked if I were the actress who plays Alice, though. I realize that you have to put Johnny Depp’s name up there in the bright lights, but to not even mention the lead’s name? It’s Alice in Wonderland, not the Mad Hatter!
