In a word- Amazing!! If you are hesitant due to all the dodgy right ups I suggest you go and make up your own mind!!! One think I dont understand is why everyone thinks its based on the book Alice in wonderland? its not, its based on Alice- through the looking glass!! As some of you know the red queen rules wonderland now and has renamed it Underland. Alice meanwhile is set to marry a duke, falls through the rabbit hole, declaring that its all too much. Her mission: To save Wonderland and restore the crown to its rightful owner- the White Queen. Yes the plot is very thin and you can see behind every twist and turn, but I loved it. The charactures are beautifully created- Matt Lucas as tweedle dee and tweedle dum has got to be my favorite, Helen Bonham Carter as the Red queen, and Depp as the mad hatter (more like hotter) are both brill too. The script is very well adapted, and I think for its market of Family's and Children is funny and entertaining. I kind of thought it was a little pretentious to think it would be anything other than lighthearted fun- did anyone actually think it would be anything but? Tim Burton has done it again and made a fantastic film.
Has anyone else seen it what did you think? leave a comment xxxlove

Movie Industry
Hello boys and girls, abit of a rant cuz Im abit fricking pissed over something!! lol!! I'm well excited for the New Tim Burton movie, "Alice in Wonderland" its been a long time coming and probably should have happened years ago; along corporate companies come (I know you can't get any more corporate than Disney!!) and try and ruin all the fun for us all!!
The Odeon cinema and some other big chains are REFUSING to show the new movie because Disney want to cut the amount of time between Theatre and DVD release to only 12 weeks. 12 weeks isn't that long or short I think its pretty reasonable, but it is going to affect allot of people, Video shops, DVD rental companies, and cinemas, if people have to pay so much money in the cinema to see a movie in 3D and they dont have to wait as long for it to come out on DVD they sure as hell are more likely to just wait and buy the frickin DVD!!
I can't really decide WHO actually is in the wrong here, I don't blame the companies for refusing to put on the film... but Disney are being a little bit (OK allot) firm on their decision of shortening the time of the film.
Last year the new Golden Compass film was prosponed indefinitely, because the American public complained so much that the film glorifies Atheism... hummmm I think not if anyone would actually have read the book, the undertone is about the church and how it has controlled us and our way of thinking for so long, the book is actually very spiritual and NOT about promoting atheism, this is another example of how Hollywood fuck things up... just because people don't agree perse in a particular film doesn't mean it shouldn't be made!!!
Anyway I just don't understand why people just don't get on with it; why when there is a market for things do corperate dogs have to get in there and want to make the biggest amount of money right away, can't they wait?? why do they have to fuck everything up for everyone else aswell, who is winning? and why does everything have to be so goddam politically correct for? If a movie doesn't agree with a particular thing on the news then it doesn't come out or gets prosponed so it doesn't affect "ratings" or doesn't cause offence
Maybe they just need to get on with it?
What do you think?
