Alice, welcome to the Wonderland

Tim Burton & Johnny Depp are the Dream Team when it comes to fantastic epic Movies. Yesterday, their new effort had it´s premiere in London and I took the chance to attend at the Press Preview in NYC. I´m still overwhelmed, but I´ll try to express what I´ve seen and about the most important thing:the Products of this Movie.

When I was a little one, I loved Alice. No, I was addicted to the Books, Movies and TV Shows. To enter something like an Alternative Universe, where all thing are different and like a fairy tale was so impressive for me that I drawn into this whole World. Now, I´m a twenty something and less interested on fairy tales or animated TV Shows, but yesterday, Tim Burton brought me back to the Rabbit Whole and deep inside I found a a little girl who is scared about the future. Alice in Wonderland could be a disturbing expierience for those who loved this as much as I did in the nintees. For the other ones, it´s a stunning Movie and the 3D effects are better than Avatar.

(She looks like Kate Hudson, doesn´t she?)

In Tim Burtons “Alice..”, our favourite Kid isn´t a Kid anymore. She turned into a 19 year old girl played by a charming Mia Wasikowska with all the teenage angst and desires of a young woman. She attends at a Party in an Victorian Estate after the Death of her beloved Father. There she spot a white rabbit and follow him into the rabbit hole. Back in “Wonderland”, she can´t even remember that she was there 10 years ago. However, the “Wonderland” is in trouble and she is the only who can release their people and creatures from the slay of the Red Queen.

Alice is discovering her own Teenage Angst in Tim Burtons Adaption when she rambles through the Wonderland and getting more and more Knowledge about her past. Johnny Depp does what he can do best. As the Mad Hatter, he play a role which isn´t that different from Willy Wonka, but who cares, it is Depp as it´s best. And, there is also an outstanding Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen.

Anne Hathaway did a great job as White Queen and overall, the Cast is good like all Movies from Tim Burton even he do not change many Actors;)

The big sell out?

A movie like “Alice…” isn´t just a Movie to explore in the Cinemas or when it´s out on DVD. It´s a big franchise with loads of products. From the special Tea Cups, Watches to an exclusive Make Up Stuff from Urban Decay you will be surrounded by her everywhere this spring.

So, this Make Up Case from UD is a must have and I bought one before it was sold out. The Urban Decay Website describe it like that: Open the palette to reveal a pop-up scene of Alice in the mushroom forest. Her “drink me” bottle discarded, she staggers past towering mushrooms, only to cross paths with a very peculiar, hookah-smoking caterpillar. A large mirror rests behind the scene – you feel as if you are transported into the film itself.

Hidden inside a secret drawer are 16 best-selling Eyeshadows, given topsy-turvy names like White Rabbit, Jabberwocky and Oraculum. Alongside them lie travel sizes of Eyeshadow Primer Potion and two 24/7 Eye Pencils. From smoky neutral eyes to flashes of hallucinogenic green and purple, the looks you can create are as endless as the rabbit hole itself. Anyone who loves Urban Decay, Tim Burton, Disney, or Alice in Wonderland absolutely MUST have this palette. Even the Mad Hatter would say this Book of Shadows delivers it all.

Tami, welcome to the Wonderland, again.

In theatres from March 5th
