The first promo pieces from Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland have been
released and they're pretty much exactly what you would expect from
the triumvirate of Burton, Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham-Carter. There
is no questioning the chemistry these three have, but they've worked
together so much its almost like Anne Hathaway, who will play the
White Queen, is up there just for a round of "one of these things is
not like the others."

The zoomable photos over at USA Today
(http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2009-06-21-alice-in-wonderland_N.htm#photo1)
are really neat and let you take a close look at all the detail in
each one of these frames. It looks like a lot of computer animation
was used, which surprised me because I always though Burton liked to
use as much real-life entities as possible. Perhaps the scope of
wonderland and production costs were just too great.

In this incarnation, Alice is a 17-year-old girl who flees a snooty party when she learns that she's about to be proposed to. She follows a white rabbit down a hole, and re-enters Wonderland. It's been ten years since that first visit, and she doesn't remember a thing.

The film is due March of 2010 - what do you think?
