No, this isn't a "what if" thread, this is a thread about the upcoming film.
From Wiki:
About wrote: Alice in Wonderland is a 2010 fantasy film directed by Tim Burton and based on the Lewis Carroll novels Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. The film will utilize a technique combining live action, motion capture technology and stop motion. Mia Wasikowska will portray Alice and the film is due for release on March 19, 2010.
So, basically, this will be a cross between American McGee's Alice, and the original novels. It's Tim Burton directing......so I have full faith in him ability to produce fucked up, awesome stuff on screenPlot wrote: As reported in the March 2009 edition of D23 magazine, the movie will incorporate many characters and narrative elements from Carroll's books but is essentially a new story, Alice's return to Wonderland. Tim Burton states that "given what this story is, if Alice had this adventure as a little girl and now she’s going back all these years later, it’s a bit overgrown...[and there’s] a slightly haunted quality to Wonderland, even though it’s got strong elements of color." She is now 17 years old and someone "who doesn't quite fit into Victorian society and structure." This journey "becomes a rite of passage as she discovers her voice and herself."
But whose playing who?
ALOT of British Actors, which I approve of, and of course, Depp as the Mad Hatter.Cast List wrote: * Mia Wasikowska as Alice.[3] Tim Burton states: "We met a lot of people, but she just had that certain kind of emotional toughness, standing her ground in a way that makes her kind of an older person but with a younger person's mentality."[2]
* Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter[4]
* Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen.[3] Carter's head will be increased in size by three times on screen.[5]
* Anne Hathaway as the White Queen. Her character does not require digital manipulation.[6] Hathaway summed up her character with a caption on a magnet of Happy Bunny holding a knife she was given; "Cute but psycho. Things even out."[7]
* Michael Sheen as the White Rabbit[8]
* Alan Rickman as the Caterpillar. Rickman was filmed while recording his voice in a studio, and his face will be composited onto a computer-generated character.[5]
* Stephen Fry as the Cheshire Cat.[9]
* Matt Lucas as Tweedledum and Tweedledee[10]
* Crispin Glover as the Knave of Hearts[3]
* Eleanor Tomlinson as Fiona Chataway, an unfriendly girl Alice knows before she falls down the rabbit hole.[11]
* Jemma Powell as Alice's sister[12]
* Lindsay Duncan as Alice's mother[13]

Discuss, contemplate, make predictions....but one thing is for certain, keep March 19 open.......we're all meeting up to go see this flick.
