Disney sucks...they made Depp and Burton look bad.

My wife and I have been waiting two years to see this movie. I am a huge fan of the Lewis Carrol novel and thought, "man, if I could choose any director dead or alive to make this film, I would choose Tim Burton." Well, this was not good. First of all, it's not "Alive in Wonderland," it's more like "Alice's Return to Wonderland." It reminded me more of the 80's movie "Return to Oz" instead of Alice's first trip down the rabbit hole. I'm not even going to touch the acting which felt lifeless. My main complaint is Disney. I felt like if another company put out this film it would've been better, but heaven forbid Disney release a film that appeals to older children or teens more than the under 12 demographic. SPOILER ALERT: Johnny Depp's dance at the end was not needed, but just added to the fact that I'm pretty sure Disney got a hold of this and thought "man, how crappy can we make this film." Don't go see this if you're a fan of the book, Depp, or Burton. It'll just make you sad.
