Avis sur le produitAlice in Wonderland (Blu-ray/DVD, 2011, 2-Disc Set, 60th Anniversary Edition)

http://zipomatic.blogspot.com/

So I finally got around to watching the classic 1951 Disney adaptation of Lewis Carroll's book on Blu Ray the other week (it's taken me this long to do a short writeup) and I was not disappointed. This was one WEIRD movie, even more so when you consider the year it came out and the company that released it. There is no real story as such, it's just Alice (a little girl) saying that if she owned her own land, nothing would make sense (this is a rebellious child of the time) she then falls asleep and dreams that she is in the land of her own making, only to find out that a land that makes no sense, while being fun for awhile, is also not a great place to live.

And when I say nothing makes sense, really, NOTHING makes sense. People talk gibberish, do strange things for no reason and generally run about with their lives doing things of little to no purpose. This works wonderfully as an animated movie as you can really explore the absurd (and the animators do frequently) and show the strangeness with a beautiful abstractness that you just could not do in live action (at the time)

MILES better than the Tim Burton/Johnny Depp live action ego stroking love fest that was made a couple of years ago (yeah, it was a re-imagining, re-telling, re-later-whatever it was, but it was still all style and no substance) if you like Disney movies, this one is a must see. But prepare for some serious weirdness....Lire l'avis complet...

Disney's classic version of Alice in Wonderland!

I bought this blu ray because I missed the last time Disney released this, and wanted it on blu ray, which by the way this film looks amazing on blu ray! I rememberd this from my childhood and wanted my kids to watch it too. This is Disney's take on this story and its a good one, I remember most about his film is the food that makes Alice grow and shrink and the story of the Oysters- I just always remembered that from my childhood, maybe because it is sad. The story is about Alice who wants to live in a nonsense type world. Well she goes there searching for the white rabbit and discovers that things she thought she would like she doesn't really care for. She loses the white rabbit and wants terribly to go home and cannot find her way. You will find this version of Disney's Alice in Wonderland more suitable for kids then the Johnny Depp version. There is no bandersnatch or jabberwocky in this movie. Though I have not read the orginal story, I plan to, and have it on my kindle(its free)would love to compare to the authors orginal piece.Lire l'avis complet...

Disney magic and fantasy at it's best

I really love Alice in Wonderland and have been a fan of this movie since the first time I saw it. I love the artistry of hand drawn animation and prefer a good hand drawn movie over any computer animated movie at any time. Disney is superb in creating a fantasy that draws Alice (and us) in, where anything and everything is imagined and thus possible. The Blu Ray version excells in displaying all the details and nuances that Disney dreamt of when making this movie.Lire l'avis complet...

A wonderland indeed

I always preferred the original version of Alice In Wonderland to the newer one. It's so imaginative & colorful, yes it's short but there's no dull moment here. I recommend this movie to all, especially those who knows only the newer Tim Burton film version. So many scenes & songs were lost on the newer version. Indulge yourself & your imagination, and enjoy!Lire l'avis complet...

Perfect Nostalgia

It’s just as strange as I remember it was as a kid (which I love)!! There was one small skip in the DVD but it wasn’t that serious. The Blu-Ray really enhances the colors too. I love it!

One of my time tested all-time favorites

Not strictly from Lewis Carroll, of course, it's pure Disney. Still, I grew up on this movie and my children's children will as well.
