Johnny has done it once again. He has been a drunken pirate, a weirdo chocolate factory owner, a psychotic throat slashing barber, so what else?

Turns out its the Mad Hatter.

*screams* Yes! Its Johnny Depp! (what happen to those sexy eyes?)

Ok, so this another one of ~~the frizzy haired, weirdo dark glasses~~ director, Tim Burton's movies (why am I not surprised?). Its an adaptation of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures In Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. A technique combining live action, motion capture technology and stop motion is said to be used in this film. It is also to be released in 3D in I-Max theatres ~~so that young and old suckers can go crazy over the 'magical' effect.~~ It will be released next year. (Thats 2010, for those who can't count years.)

Other actors include Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen. (well, she IS Tim's wife after all).

And the gorgeous Anne Hathaway as the White Queen.

Alice In Wonderland had always been one of my favourite classics since young. The 1951 Disney cartoon adaptation was one of the cartoons that had to be played on the TV everyday in my house to make the 3 year old me less hyper and fidgety. So I have to admit, watching the cartoon again brings back old childhood memories. *perasan* Those were the days. sighs.

However there was one thing I HATED about the cartoon that it even evoked fear in me. The grinning pink and purple Cheshire Cat in the cartoon has always given me the creeps with those stupid yellow eyes, tacky pink and purple stripes and evil, evil grin. It was always TO THE CLOSET! for me whenever he appears in the movie. Gah! Stupid creature.

Yes you stupid dorky cat! You even gave me nightmares for YEARS!

Gosh I need systematic desensitisation.

Anyways, speaking of fairytales, I watched this movie called Penelope recently. It was not a really good movie, but for some reason I loved it. It is some sort of an urban fairytale about a girl who was cursed at a birth with a pig's snout who can only break the curse with...what else...true love. Typical. It features stars such as Christina Ricci, James McAvoy and Reese Witherspoon.

So for the girls looking for a modern time fairytale to drown in, try watching Penelope. It's not bad. :)

Oh, and girls, Mr Tumnas (James McAvoy) from the Chronicles of Narnia can actually be quite hot. ;)

PS: Don't you dare try to use my fear against me.
