Why Do We Love Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland Movie?
Disney's Alice in Wonderland Movie
Anticipation for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland
We had been waiting and waiting and waiting for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland movie for what seemed like forever. I'm sure that it was the better part of a year that passed between the airing of the first trailer and the release of the movie. The original trailer was pretty flimsy; just enough to let us know that it was coming and to get us talking about the movie.
Why Were We So Keen To See Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland?
I'm not sure why we were so fascinated with this movie but here are a few of my thoughts in this regard:
- Could it be because we watched the Walt Disney version of Alice in Wonderland when my boys were younger?
- Could it be because we had a magical birthday party for one of my sons complete with a tiny door to enter through, potion to drink and a Mad Hatter's tea party?
- Could it be because we went to the Queen's tea party at the Children's Museum every year for years?
- Could it be because we've seen a few other versions of Alice's story on television?
- Could it be because we love many of Tim Burton's movies like Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, the Nightmare Before Christmas and A Corpse Bride?
- Could it be because we love many of Johnny Depp's movies and certainly all of them that are rated PG?
We Were Relieved When Alice in Wonderland Finally Arrived
Whatever the reason, I was sure glad when the movie finally arrived. My son was not interested in doning a costume nor a Mad Hatter's hat for the movie but he was MOST DEFINITELY interested in going. We went, we enjoyed ourselves and now, on June 10, 2010, we can finally own our own copy of Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland and although it was not my favorite movie of all time, I cannot help but wonder if this movie will go on to be a cult favorite...
