I'm disappointed that Hollywood lacks imagination.

You mean Tim Burton?

You're right. I think they've completely lost it. I mean, a lady with a giant head? I don't think that's in the origional Alice in Wonderland. Or is it?


Added: Oh, I didn't know it was her RETURN to Wonderland.

God damnit Johnny, why do you pick such stupid movies? What a waste of talent.

what's wrong with you people.. i seriously don't understand all the hate for tim burton....
this movie looks great. fuck the haters.

John Tenniel's original illustration of the Duchess:

Yeah. Get the original book with the original illustrations and you'll see, guys.

I'm looking forward to it, pretty excited. I disliked the one Disney made. Today, I'm going to see a theatre production of it and then go see Alice on Saturday or so. Let's see how they compare. I personally couldn't sit through the disney one, guess I had gotten too old. This one looks like it captured the themes as I interpreted them well. I've heard people say Burton uses these themes over and over, but I'm not all too familiar with him, so oh well.

I'm disappointed by narrow-minded generalisations.

Tim Burton is hardly one of the more commercial directors these days. He seems like he does projects because he simply wants to these days, and much of the cast seem to think likewise.

This.

I like what Tim Burton does. He has clear motifs throughout his work and I tend to like most of them.

The only Alice in Wonderland I've seen is the Disney one in both the book and the movie so I had no idea. I guess I had the wrong idea the whole time...

Also, I believe this movie is also owned by Disney.
