Love the style.

Looks cool, but... this trailer makes it look as though Alice is more of a prop than a character.

Are they paying royalties to American McGee? I had heard that a movie was being created based on his dark videogame take on the story, but it seemed like that was falling through at every turn. And I didn't see his name anywhere in the credits here.

Unfortunately, I tend to think that Disney is the absolute worst outfit to have their tentacles hands on this project. The last "good" original idea Disney had was to buy Pixar and then slowly take over the branding of Pixar's movies to pretend that they are creatively responsible for them.

I'm still unsure how to feel... Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was a let down. Now this.

I have to say i, for one, am getting a leeeeeetle bored of the depp/helena bonham carter routine.

... not to mention Tim Burton. When was the last time he directed a decent movie? Beetle Juice? They're all starting to look the same to me.

I thought Batman, Edward Scissorhands and Big Fish were quite good. He tends to put a bit too much weight on the style (vs the plot/script), though.

Agreed. And Pee-wee's Big Adventure wasn't bad either.

although i haven't seen this yet, i think i can still say i prefer the completely disturbing and totally bizarre Jan Svankmejer version.

Looks fun. Are they making Wizard of Oz remake yet? I would like to see that.

I watched Jan Svankmejer's Alice when I was a kid, I loved it then too.

How come this version seems to have the Mad Hatter in every scene?

Thats CAPTAIN Mad Hatter.
