Alice DVD Review

Be sure to check out a review of the Alice in Wonderland DVD by Richard Roeper over at  Reelz Channel!

Alice on DVD

Alice in Wonderland came out on DVD and Blu-Ray today, and Disney Movie Rewards is offering a $10 off coupon on the Blu-Ray combo pack, get that here.

If you're not going to run out and buy the movie immediately, this should keep you busy until then-- character posters and clips over at Geeks Of Doom
and discover the Oraculum (the illustrated calender of all of the days of Underland) here and a Glossary of Underland here.

Finally, in a recent interview Helena reviled that she based the Red Queen's voice off of her daughter, Nell:
"The voice kind of came from my daughter; I thought that the Red Queen had arrested development and that I was pitching her about two years old... She's like a toddler, she has a tantrum all the time. She's a toddler tyrant - toddlers are tyrants!
"They've got no sympathy for any other living creatures... the toddler thing was a big thing. My two year old daughter - she is quieter now - was retrospective inspiration. Two is kind of the time when you don't have any empathy for any other living creature. You slap things and it's all about me. That's OK in a toddler but not in a grown-up toddler."
