Is it allowable to post movie stills in the movie trailer thread? My apologies if it is not.

Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland:

I'm really not sure about Alice in the hands of Tim Burton. I usually don't like his films, and what he's done to it from the look of these pictures is just not Alice in Wonderland to me. It looks more like that game where she's gone insane.

By which you mean Alice Through the Looking Glass, right?

(Alice? "Insane"? Never.)

I see they're going with the ol' grow-up-and-forget-about-the-fantasy-world-you-once-visited train of thought (a la Hook and...um...Narnia...?...and some other stuff).

No? I don't think that's what it was called. I tried searching for it but I can't remember enough about it to find its name.

Yeah I think so. I only know it from a gothy friend showing it to me, but how many creepy looking Alice games can there be. Man that's a creepy-looking cat on the cover! Alright, so maybe Burton's one doesn't look that bad, but he's still gone and Burtoned all over it.

Yeah, 'cause the original Alice wasn't creepy at all.

I for one am looking forward to it, however as much as I love Tim Burton theres always something similar in all his movies, especially that dark atmosphere and colouring to the shoots....


I'm a little bit of a fan of the original Alice

I think the trailer came out a while ago but it's been rereleased with HP, I think:

This thread has received no love for so long...

Besides, I thought it appropriate to give a little shout out to the BLACK SWAN trailer, with Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis. Check it out! (as always, i expect great things from this director.)
