[edit] Movie Poster

Thanks Chris1219, for uploading the Movie Poster, because it was hard to find on the Internet. --Zachkudrna18@yahoo.com

[edit] Deletion of "relevant" material

I thought the version of the article by Tregoweth was much better then the current version. How many fair use movie posters does the article need? Plus I also think that the long list of foreign langauge titles is not really needed in this article. Garion96 ^(talk) 11:53, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Move the posters to a gallery then, simular to the Pinocchio (1940 film) article. It is better to have more content.--Nick Dillinger 11:58, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

I disagree. It's not better to have a fair use image gallery. Plus too much content can indeed hurt an article. Like a list of foreign language titles for instance. :) IMO of course. Garion96 ^(talk) 12:03, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Per comments on Talk:Pinocchio (1940 film), extra posters should not be used unless they are explicitly being discussed at a significant length in the article. ed g2s • talk 01:48, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DVD cover

Who deleted that 2004 DVD cover, which was very, very important in this article, which was very naughty for someone to delete it? --PJ Pete

No idea, you could look it up if you want to. According to the discussion above it failed our fair use criteria. Why was it important to the article? Garion96 (talk) 03:24, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The history section.

It needs a serious rewrite. It's packed with POV and unsourced information. Inkbottle 02:16, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Not in the book?

If I remember correctly, the talking flowers and the strange insects were in the book. Am I mistaken? -Alice (Yes, that's my name. Stop laughing.)

You're not mistaken (although I think they were in Through the Looking Glass, as opposed to Alice in Wonderland). Since the film references both books, I think this should be removed also.Paul E Nolan 11:57, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Awkward Wording

Don't you think the final item of Trivia is worded awkwardly? I'll C/P it here to see if we should reword it.

OK here it is: "When the film was closed-captioned for certain VHS tapes, they often used sentences what the characters are saying mean in other sentences, such as Alice saying that she doesn't want to go among mad people means that she doesn't want to be around or with them." This, IMHO, is a sentecne you have to read over sevreal times in order to actually know what the person who wrote this was trying to say...do you think we/I should rewrite it? --DancexwithxmexXx 17:52, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

I think we should delete it, since I have no idea what it means. Powers ^T 15:45, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

OK, If someone hasn't already done it, I'll go look. --I'm Kinda Awesome... 13:21, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, it's gone now. --I'm Kinda Awesome... 13:23, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cheshire Cat picture

That Cheshire Cat picture is unnecessary. First off, it's fanart. Second, it doesn't add anything to the article. I strongly suggest it be removed. If people feel strongly about having a picture of the Cheshire Cat, let's get a better, official one. --DarshaAssant 01:14, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pink Floyd - The Wall sync

I was just wondering if anybody knows about the Pink Floyd - The Wall with the Alice in Wonderland Sync. I know it sounds crazy but someone in highschool showed me the Sync and I was impressed. Scary dragon atop the hill (talk) 07:34, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Live action?

This re-release was successful enough to warrant a subsequent re-release a few years later, where it played on a double feature with the live-action Disney film.

What live-action film is this referring to? In the history it mentions Disney made plans for several live-action features but none were ever made. There was a combined live-action/animated short made in 1923 (?), could that possibly be it? Or a different film altogether? Gr8white (talk) 01:52, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
