Ugh. Wait a minute…apparently someone who made the movie doesn’t know the difference between the Red Queen and the Queen of Hearts or doesn’t care. Ugh.

Yes, visually he is interesting, but I was not looking forward to the Hot Topic merchandise that would accompany this film because Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass are some of my favorite books ever. It pisses me off when I love something and then all of the sudden it's so overly trendy (pirates, plastic frame glasses, cheesy vampire crap), probably because I'm a snob. I should be happy that more people are appreciating the things I enjoy, right? But maybe that would only be true if this movie was close to the original stories. So I don't think neat images is enough to make me want to see this. I really enjoyed John Tenniel's images. I’m not anti-Tim Burton, but the idea of this movie made me angry.
