Dude, it's okay if you like the movie. I just thought it was a piss-poor version Tim Burton's imagining of Alice.DisneyFan09 wrote:Call me ignorant, but to this day, I've never understood the complains about the first one. I really liked it a lot and I couldn't see anything particularly wrong with it. It's not the best film ever made, but it was still quite good.

My thoughts exactly. The special effects and the cast (especially Helena) were amazing!DisneyFan09 wrote:Call me ignorant, but to this day, I've never understood the complains about the first one.

I thought so too first, but after I read the whole book of alice in wonderland and through the looking glass, I thought that they could have done a lot more better, playing around with the original books.Old Fish Tale wrote:My thoughts exactly.

though i personally love the visual and the music, so I'm really excited about the sequel. I don't mind if it's a prequel actually... maybe a movie about how wonderland was made hmm?

Alice (the character) was boring and plain emotionless with wooden acting. I felt nothing from her when I saw it. That's main core why the movie sucked. there are other reason as well.

I agree. They didn't even have "quaint British girl" to fall back on in this film.Super Aurora wrote:Alice (the character) was boring and plain emotionless with wooden acting. I felt nothing from her when I saw it. That's main core why the movie sucked. there are other reason as well.

The majority of people think that Burton's Alice in Wonderland sucked because it was in the Burton style.
IMO,it sucked due to the weak script.The ending was so lack-luster that the Mad Hatter's dance didn't bother me.The ending was spoiled by the damn magic calendar that initially gave the idea that Alice was going to kill the Jabberwocky. The beginning of the film caught my attention,and the middle part was strong.The ending was just blah.
I have no problem with Burton directing the sequel unless the script isn't worthwhile.Burton needs to get back on his passion and creativity boat.Alice in Wonderland is just evidence of Disney coming up with weak scripts that are yet attached to a talented director's/producer's name.And guys,please don't respond with "Tim Burton is a crappy director anyways!"because we know he's good.He just wastes time with projects he doesn't care much for.

I don't think Tim Burton will be directing the Alice in Wonderland sequel. He's said to be not a big fan of sequels. He was contractually obligated to make Batman Returns and there's a reason it's so radically different from his first Batman. It's also one of the reasons why he won't be making Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator, not to mention despite how much Disney wants him to, there won't be a sequel to The Nightmare Before Christmas.
He also agreed to direct Alice in Wonderland, so that he could then make Frankeweenie.

The Alice in Disney's animated one was enjoyable and had personality. Hell even the live action kid's show one they use to on the Disney channel had one.

I felt nothing from Alice reading the books.

Yeah... while I wouldn't say annoying, she's certainly plain. Not much personality there at all. But like you said, a lot of that is in the character herself. The whole point is that she's a plain-jane in a wonderland world.PatrickvD wrote:Not really. She was plain and annoying.

Yeah, I still kinda liked it, but it committed the worst offense a movie could commit, and that is not living up to its potential. Disney may've changed the script from Brenda Chapman's(?)original screenplay, but whatever happened the result was paint-by-numbers. Very little nonsense, and Carroll's books thrived on that concept of nonsense.

Brenda Chapman? I think you're probably confusing her with Linda Woolverton. Brenda Chapman would have been busy working on Brave and other Pixar projects at the time.
