(1974 Re-issue) Alice In Wonderland Trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSV2nK1_la0#)
You hopefully remembered the Disney version of Alice in wonderland. It was based off the book. Oh how happy and kind. what an interesting world it was. Then...
Alice in Wonderland: Official Trailer #2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMiCJefpn9Q#ws)
I'm not sure but I think this is a sequal. Alice has grown up some to I think... 13? I wouldn't say teen because then I wouldn't know what to put for the next one. That's right. The games! Since the games has gore and dark disturbing scenes in it I'm using cover pictures. See? I behave! >:|

Ok as you can already tell alice has grew up. But guess what. So has wonderland. As you can tell the cute little kids movie slowly amped up the ramp. If you guys are thinking the same thing I am then yeah. This is where we can saw what the heck? Ok so Alice is now a teenager if not fully grown. The games are dark and contain insanity and gore. Also if I get one gory picture/video of alice then I'm going to flip. Let us please behave and not have this thread locked or deleted.

It's not a sequel.
It's just someone putting the story of Alice in Wonderland in a different style.
-
Yeah, calling them sequels and stuff is unkind. The games are awesome by the way, and is simply someone elses interpretation of Alice in Wonderland.
Just wondering... Have you read the book? Can you really compare the disney movie to a book, considering they change everything around for a happy ending. Did you know in the original version of the little mermaid, Ariel was supposed to die, not marry her prince and live happily ever after. Many Disney movies based on other things actually make things 'lighter' than they should be.
In fact, in the hunchback of notre dame the gypsy girl is supposed to die, and quasimoto (No clue how to spell it XD) climbs into her coffin and stays there, buried, until he dies.

It seems everytime a new alice in wonderland movie or game is made, it just gets better. XD

The Disney version of Alice was a LOT nicer than the book. Disney didn't invent Alice, they modified the book to appeal to children. The games are also based more on the horror aspects of the book. They are also very good games, give them a shot before you knock them. :) They aren't like the Disney version but they are very fun and compelling.

I love Alice in Wonderland, Madness Returns. It shows the darker side, like the real side of what they made it lighter.
And It's actually true, They made it children appealing. You know, I have actually read Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. And Did You know, That's exactly how the Alice, In madness Returns, was? Because he (Lewis Carol) based Alice on that girl.

Wow get over it, OP. All developers have different interpretations and they're all aimed for different people. Don't like? Don't watch or play it.
American McGee's version of Alice is f***ing awesome.
-
OP? Who is OP?
-
OP means "Original poster". So Teal means the person who posted the thread originally, I.E. Okami.
-
I feel the love. T^T
And I like the games better. I'm going to get the books now that I see what it was originally based from. Anyway I was just putting this up because I was wondering if anyone shared my thoughts. Now that I see there is a book I must read it.
-
The American McGee versions are the dark side of the Alice Story. Disney's Alice is a far more kind, sweet, happy-go-lucky version of it. And then the Alice Movie with Johnny Depp in it was kind of in the middle of the two, and I think maybe a little closer to the original books.
Although, I love the American McGee story to bits and pieces.. even though Cheshire Cat still gives me nightmares every once in a while. :P
-
Cheshire cat go boom in the end of american mcgees alice. Kitty go boom!
^Spoiler
Anyway as I said the game is soooooooooooo good. >.>
