Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland
i have a little info ^^
it's set to be released in 2010 (seems like forever). they're currently shooting in Cornwall, England. it stars Mia Wasikowska as Alice, Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter, and Helena Bonham Carter (rumored to be) the Queen of Hearts (sorry but i couldnt find a picture of her) Mia Wasikowska as Alice ![]() Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter ![]() Alice in Wonderland is my all time favourite Disney movie im quite anxious to see how Tim Burton will do this im hoping he'll make it like Nightmare Before Christmas and in Corpse Bride where one world is brighter than the other, but in Alice in Wonderland her real world is bland and boring and then Wonderland is this colourful and bright place i keep thinking back to the scene in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory where they were all in the room where everything could be eaten it just gives off a "Wonderland" vibe to me n_n he's got to be one of the best directors / creators i've ever seen all of his films are amazing anyone else excited or have any info?? EDIT: i typed the wrong title TT^TT im sorry!!! i was just so excited my typing got messed up |
Tim Burton scares the crap out of me.. the stuff he writes is crazy..
|
Sounds interesting. I never knew about this movie. I'm definatly going to go see it when it comes out =P
|
Oh my god, my friend Holly would kill to see this movie.
She loves Tim Burton's movies. And seeing Johnny Depp like that? Haha. I'm quite excited to see it myself. But, may I ask why it's real life pictures? Aren't they supposed to be animated? Or is there going to be a switch between real life and animation? If you know, of course. :] |

i really want to see it :D i dont like the girl who's going to play alice,i dont think she'd make a good alice,but i think ti, burton would make a awesome mad hatter!! :D
lol did u post this on asiajam to? :D |
in the interview that i read, it said the movie would be a mix of real life and CG so maybe there will be animated characters at some point.
i cant wait to see the Cheshire Cat (spelling is probably wrong) and the one catapillar (spelling again??) who was smoking on the mushroom. random: speaking of mushrooms, i got in trouble at school one day for wearing an Alice in Wonderland shirt. the shirt had Alice sitting on a mushroom drinking tea and they said it was a drug reference and they made me change. that made me mad. i was like "IT'S DISNEY FOR GOODNESS SAKE!! HOW MUCH MORE DRESS CODE CAN YOU GET?!" i'll post a pic of it if i can find it in my trainwreck of a room |
Ah, Tim Burton. I can't say I'm not excited at all.
Personally, I dislike how he's made the Mad Hatter. He certainly looks mad, however, no doubt he could of used something different. Although I enjoy his dark twist to things, sometimes many of them can be perceived to be childish, and that gets rid of the amazing factor, personally. I for one, hope that if this is a musical like others, they'll sing better this time. I was expecting more from Sweeney Todd. Not the best director, but a very creative one. Looking forward to it. |

i agree, Sweeney Todd was a little ugh for me too i also agree with you in saying he's a very creative director he's inspired me A LOT of times when i design outfits im just anxious to see what it's going to be like n_n and thank you to whoever changed the title =3 @PockyMePink: oh really?! i didnt know that! that's actually pretty cool n_n *runs off to Google* |

Sweeney Todd was dark, and amusing. But it didn't pull me. It's not a film I can keep watching and each time, marvel at it's brilliance. Sometimes, though, I think he takes the creativity past the limits. |

@JoshAussie: i sure hope not. Alice in Wonderland is one of the best movies ever (personal opinion) |
sadly...no.
Mia does not look like she is going to make a good Alice, and the Mad Hatter does NOT look as happy-go-lucky as he did in the original. Plus, I've never been fond of remakes of movies, or movies in general. Oh, and I'm a picky person XD |
This is going to be exciting!
|
Im hyped to c it.. get an advance copy and show us

Personally, I REALLY hope he doesn't screw this up. I LOVE the Cheshire cat, and I couldn't stand to see his image ruined. I'd probably kill Burton if he did.
That aside, I don't think it will come out too bad. Not a huge fan of Burtons works, but I do like a few. "We're all mad here..." |
It looks so awesome. I've been waiting to hear more information about it. Thanks! :D:D
Johnny Depp love...♥ Except I hate writing a paper about him. |
Sounds awesome. I'll keep my eye out for this.
|
i wouldnt mind it.
|
I'm such a huge fan of Tim Burton, Johnny Depp & Alice in Wonderland that I almost had a heart attack when my sister told me that Tim Burton was doing an Alice Project and Johnny was in said project. I am also overjoyed at the fact Helena Bonham Carter (Red Queen), Alan Rickman (Caterpillar YES!) and Timothy Spall (Bloodhound) are in the movie; I am also curious to see how well Anne Hathaway does with the White Queen. Has anyone heard who is going to be the Queen of Hearts and the Duchess or if they are even in fact in the movie?
|
I hate it when people think that Disney's Alice in Wonderland was the original deal. They changed so much, and even combined the two novels of Alice's journey, both Wonderland, and the Looking Glass.
Mad Hatter wasn't AS crazy as they made him seem in Disney's movie. Or maybe he was, but not the crazy they used. So if anything, I feel Burton may bring it closer to the original. Can't wait for Marilyn Manson's take on it either. :'D Phantasmagoria, ya'll. |

As for the originals, I have most of the original movie memorized anymore, lol. I don't have the original book, though... I have read most of it... "What do a raven and a writing desk have in common?" |
Sounds good. I've heard about this version & Marilyn Mansons take on it with that one model...forget her name...
Quote:
Yea...Alice in Wonderland is my favorite story...:o |

I hope he goes truer to the original book; it's actually quite dark; I've never been a huge fan of Disney in general;
you do know that in the original Little Mermaid she dies at the end, right? :p |
Quote:
Oh yeah when is Manson coming out with his wasn't it supposed to be this year? Two Alice in Wonderlands so close together....interesting. well i'm stoked |

XD!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
JOHNNY DEPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! man Alice in wonderland is my all time fav movie can't wait to see this!!!!!!!!!! I love the Cheshire cat!!! |
I love Tim Burton's movies.
And Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass were amazing books to read. (I have Lewis Caroll's complete works) I'd definitely see this, I can imagine it'd be interesting and colorful. |
Quote:
Manson's will be Phantasmagoria right? It's really interesting, it wouldnt be exactly Alice and Wonderland though. It will focus on Lewis Caroll. I think it would be more of a pyschological horror film about how Alic haunted him. Victorian England. A haunted writer in an isolated castle is tormented by sleepless nights and visions of a girl named Alice. He finds himself becoming a symptom of his own invention. “Now all my nightmares know my name.” He is Lewis Carroll. Terrified of what waits for him each night |
Well, I'll watch it. I don't mind adaptations on classics, as long as it's done well I'll give it a try.
|
Through hell or high water I'm going to see this movie, I'm already really excited and it won't be out for more than a year. Basically, any Tim Burton/Johnny Depp movie is mandatory viewing for me. :)
|
I happened to like Sweeney Todd extremely.
I just have a dark humor I guess >=] Anyway, after reading Alice in Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass, the movie didn't seem all that great in comparison. To have an honest opinion of a movie (a remake or made from a book) you have to act as if you never saw the original or read the book and view it as if you had never seen or heard anything like it before. Disney can be a little creepy. Pinocchio has scarred every child. |
I am unbelievably excited about this movie. I heard whispers of it back in mid-2007, and have been nearly peeing my pants since then!

Disney "sweetens" things too much, imo. But for kids they have to. Quote:

Hope it won't upset you too much, but this too is a combined story. The Red and White queens, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, The Caterpillar, The Knave of Hearts, and The Cheshire Cat, are all characters in this adaptation. Just a FYI for those who have never actually read the original novels: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There (1871) |
holy cow im excited i love burtons work, but iam not surprised that johnny is in it he is in literally in all of burton's movies... but ya either way im excited i really want to read alice too!! YA!!
