"You need to be as mad as a hatter"

Look what fell out of the rabbit hole — a first look at Tim Burton’s imagining of Alice in Wonderland. Folks are saying this teaser has been “leaked” so presumably we’re catching a pretty early glimpse of things to come. The film, after all, doesn’t come out ’til next March.

Tim Burton is a visual genius, but his vision of the Mad Hatter freaks me out just a bit. It’s hard to tell Johnny Depp is under all that accoutrement and Carrot Top hair. But like most Burton productions, Alice promises to be wonderfully twisted. I can’t wait.
