I Can’t Wait!: Alice in Wonderland Trailer

Chick 1 says:madhatter

Finally, our first moving look at Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland.  I’m still excited about this project but I’m a little underwhelmed by the trailer.  Obviously a teaser, we see most of the major players and some fun special effects but nothing to really sink your teeth into.  (And no Alan Rickman, sadness!)  I want more. I guess that’s what a teaser’s supposed to do.  Enjoy.

I Can’t Wait: More Alice in Wonderland Pics

Chick 1 says:alice2

We’ve had a couple of glimpses of Tim Burton’s upcoming take on Alice In Wonderland, like this pic of Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter.  Yesterday, several more character portraits ,like this balloon-headed Helena Bonham Carter, and some delightful concept art were released.  I know this will be weird, but I am really looking forward to this.  And I have to say, while the first Mad Hatter picture looked like Johnny Depp, I think this one looks like Elijah Wood.  Look at the eyes & that gap in the teeth.  Does Johnny Depp have a gap in his teeth?  See the rest of them (including Johnny Depp as Elijah Wood as the Mad Hatter) here.  Plan to go down the rabbit hole March 5, 2010.

Robin Hood: Russell Crowe sports a somewhat Maximus haircut in this new photo from the production.  Yummy.  We’ve also learned that Matthew MacFadyen (Pride & Prejudice) has been cast as the Sherriff of Nottingham.  Interesting. Read more

Casting Notes

A few more projects in development that have piqued my interest. Apparently, this week the theme is Harry Potter.

Old News: I’ve been mildly interested in Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, currently filming in London.  Naturally, it features Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter but when Alan Rickman (Severus Snape in the Harry Potter series) was announced as the Caterpillar, I was completely sold.  I adore Rickman and would pay to watch him sort socks.  This movie has officially been moved to my I Can’t Wait list.  Check out the rest of this cast: Mia Wasikowska as Alice (Thank heavens Burton was original enough to cast someone besides Dakota Fanning or Abigail Breslin!  Yes, they’re talented but they’re not the only fish in the sea.), Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen, Anne Hathaway as the White Queen, Michael Sheen as the Cheshire Cat, & Crispin Glover as the Knave of Hearts.  Yes, this will be weird but it could also be freakin’ awesome!
