King of Hearts Quote from Alice in Wonderland

2011-06-24T18:52:00.000+10:00

This week's Alice in Wonderland quote is a conversation between Alice and King of Hearts.

Alice is called up as a witness in the trial where the judge - King of Hearts- is trying to find out who stole the Queen's tarts. But Alice is so very tall and big at this moment that she accidentally tips over the jury box with all the jurymen. This makes King of Hearts very annoyed and he decides to ask Alice to leave since she knows nothing about the stolen tarts anyway. But it doesn't go so well for King of Hearts:

King of Hearts: "Rule 42: All persons more than a mile high to leave the court."

Alice: "I am not a mile high. I shan't go at any rate. Besides, that's not a regular rule: you invented it just now."

King of Hearts: "It's the oldest rule in the book."

Alice: "Then it ought to be Number One!"

Alice wins this round and stays in court!

The White Queen has a cheeky offer for Alice and this is her quote:

"The rule is, jam tomorrow and jam yesterday - but never jam today."

-the White Queen

The White Queen promises Alice to pay her two pence a week and jam every other day if she was to become the Queen's maid. Of course this means that Alice would never get any jam, since today is always the 'No jam' day!

Alice in Wonderland Quote by the Caterpillar

2011-06-03T12:10:00.000+10:00

This week's Alice in Wonderland quote comes from Alice herself.

Alice is tiny again, coming from the White Rabbit's house where she has eaten a little pebble sized cake to change into a small girl and has come out of the house without breaking it. She walks in what looks like a thick forest to her and is looking for something to eat that would make her a normal size Alice again.

Alice finds a huge mushroom and only reaches to see on top of it on tiptoe. There she sees a large caterpillar sitting and smoking a long hookah. After a while of staring at each other the Caterpillar asks Alice: "Who are you?" And when Alice mumbles something about changing so many times since the morning, the Caterpillar tells her to explain herself. But Alice has a problem with that:

"I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir, because I'm not myself, you see."

-Alice

Alice in Wonderland Quote by the Gryphon

2011-05-27T15:13:00.000+10:00

Alice in Wonderland quote by the Gryphon is one of my favorite quotes:

"The adventures first...explanations take such a dreadful time."

- Gryphon

Alice is having a conversation with the Gryphon and the Mock Turtle by the beach. Alice has been mostly listening to the other two telling their stories and songs but then the Gryphon asks Alice to tell about her adventures as well. When Alice begins her tale a little hesitantly, the Mock Turtle wants her to explain it all. But the Gryphon is impatient and wants to hear only the exiting parts.

Alice in Wonderland Quote by the Duchess

2011-05-20T13:37:00.000+10:00

This week's Alice in Wonderland quote comes from the Duchess.
Alice is walking with the Duchess who is for once in a pleasant temper. She tucks her arm into Alice's and rests her chin on Alice's shoulder, which Alice doesn't like much because her chin is uncomfortably sharp.

The Duchess talks and gives morals to everything from love to thinking without speaking. This is a moral to something that only the Duchess can understand:

"Take care of the sense, and the sounds will take care of themselves."
-the Duchess

Alice in Wonderland Quote by the Red Queen

2011-05-16T11:33:00.002+10:00

This Alice in Wonderland quote comes from the Red Queen:

"Now here it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!"

- Red Queen

Alice meets the Red Queen after talking to the flowers in the Queen's garden. They go for a walk and the Red Queen explains to Alice how the area is a giant chess game and how they move from a square to another. She even promises Alice that in the eight square Alice will become a Queen herself!

While doing this they begin running and the Red Queen just makes them run faster and faster. But the strange thing is that the surroundings don't change at all. And Alice feels that they are in the same place all the time, even though they run and run for a long time. The Queen doesn't think anything of it but instead says that Alice's country must be then a very slow sort of a country.

Alice in Wonderland With the Cheshire Cat - the Vanishing Act and the Famous Grin

2011-05-06T08:53:00.000+10:00

Alice is walking in the forest of Wonderland after visiting the Duchess and saving the little pig from the pots and pans of the cook. Then she sees the Cheshire Cat and has a chat with it. The Cheshire Cat declares that everyone in Wonderland is mad while Alice asks for directions.
The conversation ends abruptly when the Cat vanishes, but he wants to ask Alice about the pig and suddenly appears again. This happens a couple of times and Alice is getting dizzy from the Cat's vanishing acts. Alice asks the Cheshire Cat not to do it so suddenly.

Therefore next time the Cat disappears very slowly beginning with the end of the tail and ending with the grin. The grin being the last thing to vanish, it stays in the air by itself for some time, and Alice is pretty amazed by this:

"Well, I've often seen a cat without a grin; but a grin without the cat! It's the most curious thing I ever saw in my life!"

-Alice

Cheshire Cat is one of the most loved characters in Wonderland. This picture of the Cheshire Cat shows how he was illustrated by Sir John Tenniel in 1865 for Lewis Carroll’s book “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland”.

Alice in Wonderland Quote by Queen of Hearts

2011-04-29T15:49:00.001+10:00

This week's Alice in Wonderland quote comes from the ever fearsome Queen of Hearts.

Alice is talking with the Duchess who is released from the prison in the middle of the Queen's croquet game. But when the Queen of Hearts sees the Duchess she stomps on the ground and shouts:

"Now, I give you fair warning, either you or your head must be off, and that in about half no time! Take your choice!"

-the Queen of Hearts

The Duchess doesn't think for a moment but vanishes in a second. She is too scared of the Queen and does not want to be taken back to the prison. The Queen then leads speechless Alice back to the croquet-ground.

Alice in Wonderland Quote by The White Queen - Best Quote

2011-04-15T13:17:00.000+10:00

This Alice in Wonderland Quote comes from the White Queen. Alice is still in the woods and she has met the White Queen. They talk about many things; happiness, loneliness and beliefs. When the White Queen tells Alice that she is one hundred and one years, and five months and a day old, Alice cannot believe her. When the White Queen suggests Alice to try and believe, Alice says that one can't believe impossible things. The White Queen disagrees and says:

"Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."
-White Queen

This picture shows how Sir John Tenniel
illustrated the White Queen and Alice
in the original Lewis Carroll's book.

Alice In Wonderland Quote by Tweedledee

2011-04-08T16:36:00.000+10:00

This week's Alice in Wonderland quote is from Tweedledee, the twin brother of Tweedledum.
Alice is wondering in the woods and trying to get to the 8th square before dark. She meets two fat boys who look like identical school boys. They have their names embroidered on their collars: TWEEDLEDUM and TWEEDLEDEE. Only DUM and DEE are showing in front . Alice is in a hurry, since she doesn't want to be in the woods after dark. But the funny little boys don't want to let her go so quickly:

"Contrariwise, if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic."
- Tweedledee

The boys talk in a funny way saying 'contrariwise' time and again. They say they know what Alice is thinking and this quote is Tweedledee's answer to her thoughts. But instead Alice says she was only thinking what is the best way out of the forest. Tweedledum and Tweedledee don't take any notice and begin repeating an extremely long piece of poetry for Alice.

Here are Tweedledum and Tweedledee in different productions. See how they have evolved through time from 1865 to 2010.

This picture is from the original Lewis Carroll's
"Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There"
by illustrator John Tenniel.

   This is how Tweedledum and
   Tweedledee looked in
   Disney's animated movie   Alice in Wonderland 1951.

101 Famous Quotes from Alice in Wonderland

Alice in Wonderland Talks to the Daisies - Best Quote

2011-04-01T14:19:00.001+10:00

This Alice in Wonderland quote comes from a scene where Alice talks to the Daisies:

"If you don't hold your tongues, I'll pick you!"
- Alice

Alice comes to a garden with a large flower bed bordered by daisies and a willow-tree growing in the middle. Alice wishes that the flowers could talk and becomes speechless for a while when the Tiger-Lily answers her. The Lily explains that all flowers can talk but because most garden beds are so soft the flowers in them are always sleeping. This garden has a very hard ground and so the flowers are awake and can talk when they are addressed first. Suddenly all the daisies start talking and shouting at the same time and Alice shuts them up by whispering these scary words!

This quote is from the trial scene where the King of Hearts, acting as the judge, is trying to figure out who has stolen the tarts from the Queen of Hearts:

"Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop."
-King of Hearts

The White Rabbit is acting as a Herald for the court, a servant who announces the accusation and the verdict and bears messages. He is supposed to read out loud a set of verses that has become an evidence in the trial. But the White Rabbit, who is wearing his spectacles, doesn't know where to begin!

Alice In Wonderland Wins Two Oscars In 83rd Academy Awards

2011-03-01T12:07:00.000+10:00

Alice In Wonderland was nominated in 3 categories in 83rd Annual Academy Awards held on Sunday, Feb. 27, 2011 in Hollywood.
The first nomination was for Achievement in Art Direction, against 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1', 'Inception', 'True Grit' and 'The King's Speech'. Alice in Wonderland was the winner of this category! Robert Stromberg (Production Design) and Karen O’Hara (Set Decoration) accepted the Oscar for Best Art Direction.

Robert Stromberg had one of the prop makers make a little Mad Hatter’s hat and he put the hat on top of his Oscar when he accepted the golden statue. He said: "I just thought it was a nice little punctuation to the end of the show."

The second Oscar for Alice in Wonderland went to Colleen Atwood for her Outstanding Achievement in costume design.

Colleen Atwood has won the Academy Award twice before: first time in 2003 for "Chicago" and the second time in 2006 for "Memoirs of a Geisha".

Carey Villegas was nominated for Best Achievement in Visual Effects for his work as visual effects supervisor on Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. The biggest competitor in this category was Inception.

“Inception” has some very good effects, Villegas said, but there were only 500-800 visual effects shots, as compared to 2,000 in “Alice.” The two movies both had won an award recently.

“Alice” had won the Golden Satellite Award for visual effects in December 2010 and “Inception” won the British Academy Awards in February 2011. So the competition was tight but in the end it was Inception that won the Oscar in Visual Effects category.

Will Alice In Wonderland Win A Spot In Oscar Nominations?

2011-01-17T16:25:00.000+10:00

Alice in Wonderland Exhibition by Julia Starr

2010-12-27T14:46:00.004+10:00

The Red Hill Gallery in Brisbane, Australia, is having a gorgeous looking exhibition of works based on Alice in Wonderland. The artist having this solo exhibition is named Julia Starr.

The latest solo exhibition is based on the beloved fairytale Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, taking influence from the classic Disney movie. She has also drawn upon various other iconic images and a touch of the current dark and far more sinister Tim Burton movie showing Alice as an adult.
Starr’s work shows the journey a modern woman takes as she struggles to hold on to traditional values. iPods, Facebook, Coke Cola and the Twilight phenomena are all entwined as she navigates her way through an ever changing technological world.

Whether it be ‘Wonderland’ or Brisbane, this exhibition is brought together by the unique style, colourful imagery and creativity that can only come from one artist…. Starr. (Red Hill Gallery)

Alice in Wonderland Already on DVD/ Blu-Ray

2010-06-07T12:59:00.001+10:00

The time has flown so fast and 12 weeks from the opening of Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland on big screens has gone by. And now we can enjoy the fascinating story on our home screens. The DVD and Blu-Ray discs are already available. Even the price isn't that bad at least if you get it from Amazon: Alice in Wonderland (Three-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo + Digital Copy)
This amazing 3 Disc Combo is only $25 and there are so many extras which are exclusive to Blu-ray that I'm seriously contemplating on going to buy the Blu-ray player!
Bountiful extras include the creation of the Red Queen, stunts, how Alice shrank and grew, and the making of the cakes. And of course the extravagant Futterwacken Dance by the Mad Hatter.

USA TODAY's Claudia Puig gives: * * *1/2 out of four for Alice in Wonderland 2010. "Burton's distinctive cinematic style makes this eclectic fantasy — infused with both dark and light — a dynamic marriage of original material and modern filmmaker."

Helena Bonham Carter Reveals The Red Queen's Subtle Anger

2010-03-16T17:29:00.001+10:00

Tim Burton's 'Alice in Wonderland' has kept a top position in cinemas for 2 weeks in a row and it is clearly on the way of becoming the highest grossing Burton film. Meanwhile Burton's partner and the villain star of Wonderland, Helena Bonham Carter has been talking about her role as the Red Queen in an interview with Ian Spelling for New York Times Syndicate. This is what Bonham Carter said about her getting the role in this production.

"No, no, no, I just assume that I'm not going to be a part of it unless he [Tim Burton] asks. And he asked me quite late in the day about 'Alice in Wonderland.' I remember that he phoned up, because I was working away, I was doing 'Terminator' in New Mexico. He phoned up and wondered if I would ever possibly think I'd want to play the Red Queen."

"It's very low-status, the way he asks. I'd never read the script, so I didn't know what he was talking about. Then, when I read it, I read her character description. Her name is Iracebeth. It said, 'Iracebeth enters. She has a huge, oversized head and is very, very angry.' I thought, 'Well, that's interesting, how he sees me now.'

"He said, 'Well, I did draw you.' That's what often happens, is that he sort of trusts his unconscious, and he said that his early drawings of the character looked like me. I wouldn't say that it's completely me, but the drawings have definitely got my angry eyebrows."

Burton gave specific instructions for Helena to capture his idea of the Red Queen:

"He likes, always, to have a quieter take. He doesn't like big acting. It's funny - the more outrageous you are or the more unreal, the more real he wants you to pull back. He gave me two notes. He wanted me to watch 'Mommie Dearest' (1981) and Bette Davis' Elizabeth I in 'The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex' (1939) with Errol Flynn. Faye Dunaway, doing the hanger scene in 'Mommie Dearest' , basically it's a person who's about to erupt, somebody who's on the edge of anger all the time.

"It was quite hard because it was unreal. It was like with Mrs. Lovett, he said, 'Look, you're already singing, that's unreal, so I want you to be as small in your acting as possible.' Here he said, 'We're in Wonderland, or Underland, so you have to compensate for that.'"

Alice In Wonderland Movie Review - Why Is Raven Like A Writing Desk?

2010-03-04T23:37:00.003+10:00

I have just returned from the Underland, Tim Burton's Wonderland. I've met all the creatures, and while many of them are funny and cute, the Cheshire Cat is best of all. This vaporising feline appears suddenly, always at the right time and disappears as quickly, finally saving the day!

Alice in Wonderland is Disney's latest 3D production. Alice Kingsley (Mia Wasikowska) is a 19 year old girl in Victorian era who escapes getting engaged by following a White Rabbit through a rabbit hole to Underland. There she meets the Mad Hatter, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, March Hare and Dormouse who try to convince Alice that she is the one who will help them return the crown to the White Queen (Anne Hathaway) from the evil big-headed Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter). Evidently there will be a battle scene in this plot but it is not too dark for all the family to enjoy. Actually there is nothing dark in this Tim Burton film, except the stepping stones in the water surrounding the Castle. That is a little surprising considering Tim Burton's other movies; Edward Scissorhand, Corpse of A Bride, Sweeney Todd.

The scenery and animation is superb. It is amazing how believable the characters seem. The actual people acting with animated characters looks effortless and real. Another favorite of mine was the Caterpillar with the voice and facial features of Alan Rickman. All in all the many furry animals have such extreme personalities and they are so endearing, as you could expect from a Disney film, that there was a lot of laughter in the cinema tonight.

The music in the movie was in tune with the scenes, beautiful and exiting. Tim Burton has added many quotes to this film from the original Lewis Carroll books. "Why is the raven like a writing desk?" is used several times; it truly points out the madness of the Hatter (Johnny Depp). But one was left missing: "We're all mad here!"

I enjoyed the film and so did my daughter who was giggling out loud half the time. I'd like to see it soon again and escape into the magic of Wonderland.

Alice In Wonderland Stars In The Green Room - Footage Behind The Scenes

2010-03-02T11:47:00.001+10:00

"Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast!" Alice quotes the White Queen in this behind the scenes footage. It is very interesting to see how Johnny Depp, Mia Wasikowska, Helena Bonham Carter and Anne Hathaway actually work in the green room. Crispin Glover has an especially demanding job playing the huge Knave of Hearts since he needs to act on extended wooden legs to have a realistic look of a giant.

Only a few more days to go, and we'll be enjoying the movie event of the year!
Here is also the International trailer for those who haven't seen the full length movie trailer of Alice in Wonderland yet. "Curiouser and curiouser!"

World Premiere Of Alice In Wonderland In London Makes Tim Burton Happy

2010-02-26T21:26:00.002+10:00

Alice in Wonderland had its world royal premiere in London on Thursday February 25, 2010. The stars of the film, including Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter came to the premiere in central London's Leicester Square where hundreds of fans were waiting to see them in pouring rain.

Curiously the British movie theater chain Odeon had resolved a dispute with Walt Disney Pictures about the release date for the DVD version just in time for the world premiere. Thus the U.K. audience will see the movie in theatres in 3D!

Tim Burton told a press conference he was relieved the issue was resolved.
"I'm just glad it's resolved. We made it 3D to be shown in the 3D screens and so I'm just very happy and grateful," he said. "3D and Alice seem to fit," Burton told Sky News. "There's something about the trippiness of the Alice world that helps bring you into that 3D space."

All is fine in Wonderland after all, or is it? Here are a couple of clips of the movie.

Underland In Shock - Mia Wasikowska As Alice Loses Her Dress

2010-02-25T16:23:00.003+10:00

The habitants of Wonderland, or Underland as Tim Burton calls it, are up for a shock when Alice -Mia Wasikowska- grows to a size of a church tower and her dress is ripped off at the process. Alice hides behind tall bushes when she's discovered by the feared ruler Iracebeth, the Red Queen. Luckily Iracebeth notices a similarity between herself and this huge newcomer to the 'queendom' - they both have a huge head - and she shows some compassion by ordering the servants to sew some clothes for the poor giant.

The White Rabbit, called McTwisp, is behind this misfortune of Alice, because he feeds Alice a cake that makes her grow - too much.

Watch for yourself, here is a clip of the film. The full movie will be on the big screens in 8 days! Unless you live in the U.K., Ireland, Italy or Holland. Executives at Odeon, which owns 107 cinemas in the U.K. and Ireland, have decided to boycott Burton's 3-D film after plans were announced to launch the movie on DVD just three months after it hits theaters. The Dutch film lovers are also going to miss out because many movie theatre owners in Holland are going to boycott Alice in Wonderland if the early release of the film to DVD goes ahead. Australians instead are going to get special treatment, because the film hits the movie screens early - Thursday March 4, 2010! Life in Wonderland isn't fair, is it?

Alice in Wonderland Star Mia Wasikowska Talks About Filming With Tim Burton And Johnny Depp

2010-02-17T16:13:00.000+10:00

Mia Wasikowska - Alice- explained her feelings about the weirdness of filming in Wonderland in an interview with Geoff Boucher. She told how acting in an animated film required her to act with stickers and baseballs as her partners against a green-screen.

Mia Wasikowska: "It is really strange [acting on green-screen]. But Wonderland itself is bizarre and weird and comical and confusing, so it's appropriate that, we were in this green-screen environment where it doesn't always make sense to you. Things were just really odd and weird, and I suppose that was suitable to what we were working on. It put you in the right frame of mind. And it made you rely on your imagination more."

Mia's views about acting with Tim Burton as the director:

Mia Wasikowska: "Right from the beginning, we had a very similar view as to how Alice should be played. He's very precise and clear and patient, and that was exactly what I needed as far as direction in this kind of film because it was so complicated. One of the most interesting things about Tim is that he does communicate visually, but he is also very precise and uses a language that people can identify with.

Mia liked to work with Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter:

Mia Wasikowska: "He is such a cool guy. He has the humanity to keep this sense of self. He's very kind and generous and so smart. To be able to watch Johnny -- just like with Tim -- as he takes something from the page to reality and how hard he works and what he brought to it and how much he brought to it, it was amazing. It is inspiring too that he does things in a purely joyous way and has fun with it all, because so often there are people who seem disgruntled. To keep that love of what you do is so important. And watching him and Tim work together is fun. They have a very deep rapport. Watching them, it's like they speak their very own language."

Countdown until the movie Alice in Wonderland hits the big screens: 16 days!
