SyFy Channel Announces Their Own Alice

As if three (THREE!) videogames and one new movie (Tim Burton's) wasn't enough for all of us, the SyFy channel has announced a four hour long Alice in Wonderland adaptation. Looks from the press release that it's going to be aimed at adults. Alice will be played by Caterina Scorsone. Kathy Bates will play the Queen of Hearts. Harry Dean Stanton will be playing the Caterpillar. Nick Willing writes and directs.

I know this doesn't have anything to do with Alice in Wonderland, but I cannot believe they renamed the SciFi channel "SyFy". What happened?

Also in the news, Anne Hathaway was voted best young actress of 2008 an online poll. She can put that trophy next to her Vanity Fair Magazine International Best Dressed award.
