Syfy's Alice is Coming this Week

This Sunday, December 6 comes the release of the SyFy Channel's Alice in Wonderland. I don't know how I missed this, but here is the official site with wallpapers, movies, and blurbs on the cast.

Here is an interview with Caterina Scorsone and Nick Willing about the show.

Alice's Furniture and Manga

 

 

I stumbled across this page that has photos of a house from the Big Brother TV show that was decorated with an Alice in Wonderland theme. Looks like they were big into checkerboard patterns, paper lanterns and Bombe Furniture.

Here is a review for Alice 19th by Yu Watase, which is part of a series of Japanese manga comics which are Alice in Wonderland inspired. They appear to be aimed at girl otaku. Looks like you can get these books on Amazon. Check out Alice 19th.

Daily Dose of Alice: Video Game and TV Show

A really stratospherically unexciting screen grab from the upcoming Disney Alice in Wonderland 2010 video game. More detailed news here at WorthPlaying. Is it me, or does this sound a lot like the American McGee game? For instance, it has an oracle too.

The White Knight (Matt Frewer), Alice Hamilton (Caterina Scorsone), The Mad Hatter (Andrew Lee Potts)

The Queen and King of Hearts - Kathy Bates & Colm Meaney

Lots more information about the SyFy channel's Alice in Wonderland here. Turns out it's coming in December 2009. 2010 is still going to be the year of Alice!

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.
