Yeah okay, it doesn't release for another year but it is going to be so amazing. Also they're filming parts of it up at my university tomorrow and the next day.

Here are some photos for it. The Mad Hatter (mr. depp) looks delightfully creepy.

This should be… interesting.

Only Burton I believe can bring out the creepiness that was Alice (book, of course). I recently read both Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through The Looking Glass and realized what a sheet the Disney version was compared to them. I mean, I hate how movies mix the progression of a book up so much. Plus, it was just so much happier and whatever.

However, the Hallmark version of Alice In Wonderland that I have on VC is pretty killer in my opinion. I mean, it incorporates more of the rhymes and songs that Disney left out, including the Lobster Quadrille. Even if Alice wasn't blonde and some of the characters called animals in the book were humans, I overall appreciated its creepiness and closeness to the events of the books, even if they still left out portions. Though, Whoopi Goldberg's face as the Cheshire Cat was a bit… off.

Buuut besides the point. I adore most of the Depp/Burton movies (Sleepy Hollow, Edward Scissorhands, Sweeny Todd, etc.) and expect this to be a smash, even if Anne Hathaway is a lame (in my opinion) and doesn't look anything like the White Queen should. Come on, she was an old lady for goodness sake that couldn't keep her shawl on. And if there's a white queen, there has to be a red queen, too, right? D: And I'm not talking Queen of Hearts. Completely different person.
