Random Commuter Observation - Bus-Stop Poster Division
I am sick and tired of Tim Burton.
I am sick and tired of Johnny Depp's Mad Hatter and the bloody Alice in Wonderland moovie hasn't even opened yet.
I am prepared to dislike this film very, very much.
That is all.
(No, actually, that is not all. I happened to see a trailer for the film the other day featuring a clip of Alice fighting the Jabberwock. It's been a long while since I read the book, yet I don't recall anything like this taking place, but that's beside the point. What irked me was that Alice looks like Eowyn. I am also very sick and tired of movies that pinch from LOTR.)

There's a prophecy that she's fated to kill the Red Queen, so I guess that's why they're invoking the sword maiden motif. They're also predicting record sales of recreational chemicals spurred by the movie.
