SyFy Alice
Wednesday, December 9, 2009 at 07:56PM
We watched the SyFy channel's Alice over weekend, thanks to a tip from a friend from IU. It seemed like a slightly odd revamp through the mindset of Dr. Who. Kathy Bates was interesting as the Red Queen, particularly in the red butterfly chair. Harry Dean Stanton as the Caterpillar seemed like a good choice.
Lots of references to the original texts, many of which seemed rather obvious. for instance, when you saw the crib didn't you just expect to see a pig in there? The discussion boards on Alice have details on the many references.
