Fun Trivia About Alice in Wonderland

 
 
 
 

We all grew up to the story of young Alice traveling down the rabbit hole into a magical world filled with anthropomorphic creatures.  The novel was written in 1865 by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson and 145 years later we are stilled simply infatuated by Alice.  Her fair skin and her childlike demeanor allowed us to drift away into a world of whimsical magic with Alice by our side.

In the film, Alice in Wonderland, directed by Tim Burton, a grownup Alice finds herself at the crossroads of her own engagement party.  Desperate to run away, Alice finds herself falling down the rabbit hole that she once visited as a child years ago.  With an all-star cast, jaw-dropping 3-D effects, and a fresh take on an old tale, Alice in Wonderland (2010) will surely amaze movie goers this weekend.

Disney has been on full blast promoting this new, 3-D adventure film, but we have dug up some fun trivia about the film that you might not have read about or seen on TV.  Get caught up on the 3-D hype and cast and all the trivia you can handle!  Fall down our trivia rabbit hole, and get lost in a world where the Red Queen rules and the White Rabbit is still running late.

Alice in Wonderland (2010) is setting up to overtake Avatar (2009) in the world of 3-D this weekend, and you don't want to be the only one not talking about it come Monday!  Yes, we understand -- it is nearly impossible for Alice in Wonderland (2010) to beat the giant that has become Avatar (2009), but it will definitely make a large impact this weekend.

One major draw to Tim Burton's film Alice in Wonderland are the stars attached.  The phenomenal cast is lead by his wife, Helena Bonham Carter, and others include Johnny Depp, Mia Wasikowska, Matt Lucas, and Anne Hathaway.  If you love these actors, you are going to love them in 3-D.  Since Avatar (2009), the 3-D hype has hit record highs.  This film will be available in 3-D which will only escalate the film experience for movie goers.

3-D movies are more expensive, but the truth is they are worth the extra cash; we know shelling out $10 or more for a film is steep, especially if you count the $20 that are inevitably spent on snacks, drinks, and popcorn, but it is worth it.  Remember that feeling while watching Avatar (2009)?  Well, get ready to be amazed and flabbergasted with Tim Burton's latest film.
