alice in wonderland through the looking glass

after i saw the movie “Alice in Wonderland” in 3D :sunglasses(small): , i wanted to make a review on it! but then i realized i haven’t read the books so i might just sound stupid (especially to the fans of Alice) :nervous(small): ‘coz i have no idea what i’m blabbing about… but coming from just a regular curious moviegoer, i really enjoyed the film! :thumbs up:

i’ve been looking forward to this movie ever since i saw the teaser trailer. and knowing that Tim Burton and Johnny Depp will collaborate again got me even more excited! so i made sure i won’t miss it.

aside from Johnny Depp as Mad Hatter, other familiar faces (and voices) can be seen (or heard :^^,(small): ).

Helena Bonham Carter plays the Red Queen. she was exceptional as Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter :clap clap: and was also seen in Sweeney Todd as Mrs. Lovett; and as expected, did another great performance as the villain in this film.

the White Queen was played by Anne Hathaway, and to tell you honestly, i didn’t really get her acting. i was confused if it was meant to be funny or what. :whatever: but i still love her nevertheless. she’s a great actress… just not so much in this movie.

and of course, :hmmm1: who wouldn’t be able to recognize Professor Snape’s voice? this time, as a Blue Caterpillar. i just love that unique tone that Alan Rickman has! he also plays Judge Turpin in Sweeney Todd.

joining in the cast of characters are Crispin Glover (George McFly from Back to the Future and the “thin man” from Charlie’s Angels) as the Knave of Hearts and Timothy Spall (Peter Pettigrew from Harry Potter; Nathaniel from Enchanted and Beadle Bamford from Sweeney Todd) as Bayard the talking dog.

excellent line up, i must say… and Mia Wasikowska make a wonderful and authentic Alice! :wink:

the movie was really entertaining. great acting from great actors. i love the visuals, the make up and the wardrobe! (especially Alice’s red dress)

CLICK HERE for an awesome review by Angela Davis! i totally agree with pretty much everything she said. (but on those parts where she talks about the books, i can neither agree nor disagree. haven’t read them :blushing: ) after reading her review, it made me wanna buy those books!

let’s start with this awesome band that i love… the one and only, The Fray! :pa.cute:
this new single “Syndicate” is still from their latest album, The Fray. check out the video below!

i know most of you (erm… myself included :hmmm1: ) are still addicted to Paramore’s “Brick By Boring Brick”… but they just premiered this new video called “The Only Exception” and i totally love it too!! i’m just not a fan of Hayley’s hairstyle in this video though.. :whatever:

Taylor Swift’s “Fearless” video is out!!! it’s just a compilation of clips from her Fearless Tour 2009. :rolls eyes: congratulations to her for winning Album of the Year for Fearless at the Grammy’s!!!

and last but not the least, Avril Lavigne is soooo back!!! in case you didn’t know, i am a huge fan of Avril! so i was really excited when i heard that she has a song featured on Johnny Depp’s upcoming movie, “Alice In Wonderland”. (this movie is definitely a must-see! :thumbs up: Tim Burton and Johnny Depp make a great team!!!) check out Avril’s video for “Alice Underground”! :inlove(small):
