haven't seen it yet. I think I've seen the Snark.
I liked wee Alice and her dad very much.
It was fun to see Lindsay Duncan after having just seen her in Merlin.

Yes, it was a jabberwocky. Like I said, the movie was beautiful, if filled with a lot of I can't tell if this is Trademark Tim Burton, or if he's tired and ripping himself off visuals. But oh G-d, the story. The dialog. Ugh. And the OMG HORRIBLE DANCE they made the Hatter do at the end. Hate. Haaaaate.
I have the art book. It's very pretty. I borrowed the Blu-Ray from Dad recently to see if maybe I was over-exaggerating how much I disliked the movie. It turns out I wasn't.

I may over-identify with wee Alice and her dad. Maybe.
In different movie news, I am hoping I can persuade Pete to go see The Woman In Black in the next week. I must go see it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I'm with Jilli. I really did not like the movie at all. And, I felt that there was not enough Depp (besides the dancing).
I also was kind of angry at the ending of the film. I don't like tacked on feminism.

As you can probably tell, I was heartbrokenly disappointed in the movie. One of my favorite books plus my favorite director? It should have been perfect for me! I honestly felt betrayed by it.

I would go see The Woman In Black today, but I am in PDX, and it is not a Cass movie. At all. I, on the other hand, make flaily-hands of glee every every time there's a commercial for it. Go Hammer Studios! Rise from the grave!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
You guys, Jurassic Park is still fucking awesome, in case you were wondering.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm on the hunt to get the 1966 BBC version of Alice done in B/W.
Directed by Jonathan Miller, w/ Peter Sellars and Peter Cook.
It's dreamlike and unsettling.
