"Believe it or not, we are in your head!"
Things are getting curiouser and curiouser as we begin our Alice in Wonderland month! In this episode, Drew and Cassie discuss Alice, the 2009 TV min-series from Showcase and Syfy starring Caterina Scorsone, Kathy Bates, Andrew Lee-Potts, Matt Frewer, Colm Meany, Philip Winchester, and Tim Curry. This Alice is a contemporary judo instructor, and her Wonderland is reimagined as a dystopia injected with elements of sci-fi and fantasy. Alice finds herself wrapped up in plot to take down the Queen of Hearts, who has been kidnapping people from Alice's world and sucking out their emotions to sell to the people of Wonderland. In addition to discussing this fascinating version of Alice's circumstances, we talk about the movie's design choices, the new functions of the various Wonderland characters, our opinions on Mad March, the funky timeline, the incorporation of The Walrus and The Carpenter poem, how excited we both were to recognize Matt Frewer, and much more!
