Hey Teppy!
Oh. MY. FREAKIN. GOD.
It took me a minute to understand what you meant. But yes, the M hatter saying "it was" in that moment makes no sense! It would certainly make more sense in your revised version. I suspect it might be a mistake, and they didn't realize it till the scenes was already animated (if they realized at all).
And here is the thing, between the rabbit's final line and him getting picked up by the two characters, there is almost no time at all. They would have needed at least 1 or 2 second more of animation to insert the closeup of the Mad Hatter at that point. And as I'm sure you know, each second of animation costs a fortune to produce.
Funny enough, I grew up watching this movie in Spanish. And in the dub, the rabbit says something like "THIS is my watch?" and the Hatter replies in the closeup "it WAS!"... like they've killed it. So it made more sense.

Re: Alice in Wonderland Discussion
Perhaps his "It was?" is in response to the rabbit calling his watch "poor."

Hey Marcey, long time no talk 
I figured it was an editing mistake, and they just left it like that, because it would cost too much to modify it.
An another thing, does anyone else think that the Queen of Hearts kinda looks like Fred Flintstone?

DisneyDivinity.... yeah, that's how I've been understanding it for year, but it doesn't really make sense. Specially given the hatter's acting. I'm inclined to think this was a mistake.
Teppy: well... they both have black hair and big lower jaws... but that's kinda it. It's a bit of a stretch, but I know what you mean. ANd if anything, Fred looks like the queen... she came about way before him!

I don't know if it was intentional or a mistake but the fact that it doesn't make sense is very fitting for this film.

I agree! I just figured it was a "Hatter-ism" (you know, like a Doc-ism, they just say things differently!).farerb wrote:I don't know if it was intentional or a mistake but the fact that it doesn't make sense is very fitting for this film.
