So excited to see that one! Always wanted to live in the house from that movie. Also one of my favorite scores, like Homeward Bound, the full score has just only been made available within the last few years.
Dinah DOESN’T talk, but many many other animals in the movie do. Dinah is Alice’s real world through line, in a way. When she falls down the rabbit hole, she says‘goodbye Dinah. Goodbye.’
This was my favorite movie as a child. I lived in an abusive household and used to daydream and escape like her. In a world of my own. But my friend (her mom because I was like 8 or 9) bought this movie for me on vhs and I watched it everyday. Idk how but it helped me cope. My friend and I even had unbirthdays. As an adult now, I realize you can help an abused child in so many ways. Even if you can’t take them in, try to do something. You never know how much it will help them.
Beautiful movie. They really don't make hand drawn animated movies like this anymore, which is a shame. Fun Fact: In the "Walrus And The Carpenter" sequence, the R in the word "March" on the mother oyster's calendar flashes. This alludes to the old adage about only eating oysters in a month with an R in its name. That is because those months without an R (May, June, July, August) are the summer months in England, when oysters would not keep due to the heat, in the days before refrigeration.
Oh thanks for the explication because I wonder myself the reason of the R flashes since years. And you're right, it was the golden age of Disney movies. I miss the old opening scene with the white castle and the blue background.
Nick didnt realize this but he is bringing everyone's childhood back! I remember watching some old disney movies from 90s and 2000s and ALWAYS seeing this movie in the trailers This is nostalgic, its SO crazy thinking that everything is made by hand work and not CGI... btw IF I TELL U ALICE HAS SUCH A CRAZY STORY AND THEORY THAT WAS BASED IN A REAL GIRL IN REAL LIFE AND THIS HISTORY IS SUPER CRAZY SCARY AND SAD??? I forgot the story already but still
Ok I have to say this Alice in wonderland is actually the first of its kind. It is know as nonsense writing. The main character is named after a girl that Lewis carol took care of. He wrote the book after several years of making e story and with Alice being so young a plot wasn’t necessary. So all in all it is just a goofy story for kids and adults to enjoy
Walt Disney himself actually hated this one, saying there was no heart to it. Which makes me wonder why he even wanted to make a movie from this book in the first place, since that was never Lewis Carroll's intent and in fact this is a pretty darn close adaptation.
@@MrParkerman6 He didn't use much of Looking Glass, though, just the Tweedles and the talking flowers (Walrus and the Carpenter come from the former so I didn't mention them).
I couldn't call this a close adaptation. Huge changes are made all the way through -- for just one example out of many, in the book, it isn't Alice who's on trial at the end, but the Knave of Hearts. That said, I love this movie anyway, it's just so imaginative and colorful.
"The Queen of hearts!" (Crowd cheers) "...And the King." One random guy: "Hurray!" Y'know, the subtitles say that was one of the cards, but I always thought it was Mickey Mouse. Must be the voice.
His french voice actor voiced Winnie the pooh, Piglet and Coco Rabbit too. He uses his natural speaking voice in a Disney movie too but it's " The 101 dalmatians " where he voiced Pongo.
@@a.g.demada5263 what a true icon but i have to give credit to jim cummings ehat a phenomenal job he's done taking over not just pooh but Tigger originally done by the great Paul wintchell
Oh it's wonderful. In France, we lost last year the Cheshire Cat's voice actor 😭 I discovered this guy voiced a lot of Disney characters even Mickey Mouse himself.
Some Facts regarding Alice in Wonderland -it basically is a kind of roadtrip movie meet someone have an encounter or move onto something else and there isn’t really a connecting thread other than Alice and she is a blank slate for the audience to view everything strange through her and having her be the normal one to work off of all of the weird and abnormal things in Wonderland and this film does what other adaptations of the story fail to do it knows it has to be a film first so it is easier for the audience to follow whereas others either stick to close to the source material or stray too far for it to make sense to follow -when Alice is lost and sings the song “Very Good Advice” originally it was supposed to be a scene where she encounters one of the characters being the Knight and was supposed to help her learn the lesson, but Walt thought it would be better if she learned the lesson herself, -the whole thing regarding “Raven like a writing desk” Lewis Carrol never had intended for the riddle to have an answer, but after receiving so many letters he wrote this in reply: in the preface in a latter edition of the book: “Enquiries have been so often addressed to me, as to whether any answer to the Hatter’s Riddle can be imagined, that I may as well put on record here what seems to me to be a fairly appropriate answer, viz: Because it can produce a few notes, though they are very flat; and it is NEVAR put with the wrong end in front! This, however, is merely an afterthought; the riddle as originally invented, had no answer at all.” -to this day it is the Disney film with the most songs in it even if some are each only a few seconds long, -the number on the Hatter’s hat is the price tag which stands for 10 Shillings and a sixpence, -if you’ll recall this was one of the books in the background in the opening of Pinocchio along with Peter Pan as Walt had wanted to make film adaptations of both as early as the 1930’s, but could never have them work right and wouldn’t be until the 50’s they came to be. -while this film did okay at the box office and with critics it wasn’t a smash hit the studio wanted, but in the late 60’s was when both Alice and the film Fantasia would find their audiences with college campuses with kids high watching the trippy films, -the voice of Alice Katherine Beaumont would only work for Disney twice in this and the next film Peter Pan as the voice of Wendy, however, she would reprise the role of Alice in the first Kingdom Hearts game in 2001, -I’m only bringing this up because you seemed confused as the woman with Alice in the beginning and end of the film is her sister, not mother or teacher and would also be in Peter Pan as the mother of Wendy, -every character in the film can be found in the books, but one which was made exclusively for this film that being the doorknob, -this film is where many actors and actresses that worked for Disney again and again can be heard in the following films, not including short cartoons or television work: Verna Felton who is the Queen of Hearts in this also was the Fairy Godmother in Cinderella and can be heard in the following Disney films: the matriarchal elephant in Dumbo, Aunt Sarah in Lady and the Tramp, Flora in Sleeping Beauty, and Winifred the Elephant in The Jungle Book, Bill Thompson who is the White Rabbit and the Dodo in this also is most famous as the original voice of Droopy outside Disney, but can be heard as Mr. Smee and several other pirates in Peter Pan, Jock, Bull the bulldog, Dachsie, Joe the Italian, cook, and the policeman in the zoo in Lady and the Tramp, King Hubert in Sleeping Beauty, Uncle Waldo in The AristoCats, J Pat O’Malley who is Tweedle Dee and Dum as well as the Walrus, the Carpenter, and Mother Oyster in this can also be heard as Cyril Proudbottom, Mr. Winkie, and a couple others in Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Taod, Jasper and Colonel in 101 Dalmatians, but was not in Sword in the Stone as you has thought, Colonel Haiti and one of the Vultures in The Jungle Book, Otto the dog in Robin Hood, Sterling Holloway who is one of my absolute favorites is the Cheshire Cat in this, but can also be heard as the Stork in Dumbo, Adult Flower in Bambi, the Narrator in Three Caballeros, Narrator in Make Mine Music, Kaa in The Jungle Book, Roquefort in The AristoCats, And my childhood With Winnie the Pooh in The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Ed Wynn while this being his only animated role for Disney was in several live action films for the studio including, The Absent Minded Professor, Son of Flubber, Babes in Toyland, Mary Poppins, That Darn Cat, The Gnome Mobile, Richard Haydn who was the caterpillar was Uncle Max in The Sound of Music, This would be the first Disney film to have end credits to it which wouldn’t happen again until 1985 with The Black Cauldron, To help animators have a look down they would have the actors playing the roles dress up as their characters and act out the scenes for reference footage I bring this up because for the tea party scene Ed Wynn who plays the Mad Hatter was improvising dialogue with the scene of the rabbit’s watch, but when it was time to do the script dialogue for the scene they found it wasn’t as funny as what he improvised so they used the audio from the reference footage of him,
Same in France : the Cheshire Cat is voiced by the same guy who voiced, Kaa, the snake in Robin Hood, Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Coco Rabbit, Pongo, King Hubert, Bernard of " The Rescuers ", Jiminy Cricket, Timothée of " Dumbo ", Roquefort and Lafayette in " The Aristocats " and a lot again. He was too the french voice actor of Mickey Mouse, Kermit the frog, Asterix, Maestro of the series " Once upon a time... "
The Black Cauldron! Oh my gosh, you have no idea how long I’ve been trying to remember the name of that movie. We went to see it at a drive-in when I was a kid and I’ve been dying to see it again but couldn’t remember the name. Thank you!!
That reminds of someone reacting to The Aristocats (not blind, just commenting on all of them) and telling a scared Roquefort to turn into his cat persona, or "better yet, the snake". Sterling Holloway played a lot of animals.
If you've seen Wreck-It Ralph, you'll likely notice that the character of King Candy was inspired by this film's depiction of the Mad Hatter. A funny thing about this movie. I think my favorite moments in this film are all the very brief ones. "Start when you get to the beginning, and when you get to the end, stop." "... and the king." (one voice) "HOORAY!" And most of all... the little baby rose saying, "I think she's pretty."
My favourite line! In Spanish it’d be something like “Start from the beginning. / Yes, and when you’re done talking, shut up” 💀 comienza por el comienzo. Y cuando acabes de hablar, te callas.
@@O___________0 in France, it's something like " and stop at the end ". Also, the french voice of the Cheshire Cat was considered like the boss of the french voice cast because he was the voice of a lot of Disney characters (Nick saw a lot of Disney movies where he's in the french voice cast) even Mickey and no-Disney characters like Asterix, Maestro, Kermit...
This movie and the author that wrote the book has been the influence of so many acid trip induced works of art, paintings, sculptures, poems, and even fashion accessories.
Hello Nick! So glad that I get a reaction for one of my favorite movies. When I was little I enjoyed it very much and years later I decided to reach more about it. But I learned that Alice in wonderland is a representation of a kid transitioning to an adult. To a kid the adult world is a very complex thing with all the rules, social etiquette, authority, etc that we need to know or learn to grow up. Alice when through a lot like figuring out how wonderland works by herself and with a little guide with the ones that is from wonderland. But being a curious child, Alice learn that her curiosity has consequences like following the white rabbit and eating the “eat me” cookies and the “drink me” potions. Teens also go through the process of finding their own identity. Like when the caterpillar as Alice, “who are you?”. And she then would reply, “I hardly know”.
I’m happy someone here gets it I feel like with all these insane adaptations, they always miss the heart of what AiW is about and just r really shallow adaptions or just r inspired by really basic concepts.
Wow, thank you! Because of all the hallucinogenic images that came from that movie was co-opted by the hippies, I missed that message about becoming an adult.
I grew up with it as well, it was always one of my favorites and still to this day it is in my top 10 Disney movies! Also thanks for the comment, it made me appreciate it even more! 🕳👱♀️🐇🌻🐛☕🔝♥️👸
The Mad Hatter is a reference to the fact that back in the days this book was written, hats were blocked with Mercury, so people who made hats or wore them often would go insane from mercury poisoning, hence the phrase “Mad as a hatter.” In the book, the Mad Hatter was accused of “killing time” and so time, thinking he was trying to actually murder him, cursed him so that it was always tea time. The March Hare is a reference to March being the month when rabbits/hares are in a rut and often grow violent toward others for mating rights, hence the phrase “mad as a March hare”
Despite this being considered a Disney classic nowadays, it what was critically panned across the board at initial release, and one of the biggest criticisms, if not the biggest criticism, from all critics was that it was too whimsical and wasn’t closer to the book. Ironically, it’s the whimsical charm of the film that made it a cult classic and eventually a highly regarded movie, and it needs to be said it was that it was especially beloved by hippies in the 60’s and 70’s for the drug inducing like imagery and tone of the film.
Correct. In fact, Walt regarded it as a failure and didn't put it into the rotation of his animated films that were re-released to theaters every 7 years for new child audiences. It was the only one of his animated pictures that he allowed to be shown intact* on his Sunday-evening TV series, because it wasn't coming back to theaters. (Aside from college and similar special showings.) (*In fact, not quite intact, because it had to be trimmed to fit into an hour minus commercials. As I remember from my distant childhood, the principal casualty was Tweedledum & Tweedledee, through I'm sure there were snips elsewhere.)
Nick, I kind of can't believe you've never heard of this story XD. I highly recommend reading the book, it's for kids and an easy read but full of the most delightful puns, riddles, dark humor (and this book is incredibly hilarious) and general nonsensicalness. In general, it's an exploration of logic and how different the world would look if things were (according to our understanding) "illogical". Utterly fascinating, the world Lewis Carrol created.
I just realized they were hinting at this all being a dream right from the get go, with the door puzzle. Often in dreams, you desire it, and that makes it so. The table, key, and box of cakes only appeared once they were suggested to her.
Fun fact: the mad hatter was trapped in an eternal 6 o clock, a perpetual tea time, because Time itself was angry with him for «killing time» by singing a bad song.
There are two ways to ruin a version of Alice (and Tim Burton did both), if you don’t get the book’s jokes: Either treat them seriously, where they still don’t make sense, or make up your own dumb ones. Walt’s version not only GOT Lewis Carroll’s silly jokes from the book-like the Cheshire Cat scene-they managed to translate them perfectly into a kid-friendly Disney environment . 🤣
Not to mention the live action sequels actually use poems and stories directly from Carroll's poems and stories. But this original one still used a line from the poem "the Jabberwoky" at least; when introducing the Cheshire Cat in this version.
@@Thomas_H._Smith Sterling Holloway is also the voice of the stork in Dumbo. It's impressive that Jim Cummings is able to sound identical to him in all those other roles
@@leahtheanimationfan40 Yeah, ironically in his day Sterling Holloway held the record for the most voices, but now that record is held by Jim Cummings. From one Pooh to another.
An interesting fact The main writer of this story himself had a kind of disease that caused poor eyesight to see different sizes and perspectives and even different color, just like the wonderland itself.
Yes, you're correct. Alice in Wonderland syndrome is so fascinating, but it's also heartbreaking to realize that individuals have very little control over it.
Well you’re kind of right, but Lewis Carroll was a man that wrote the books not a woman. Also it is stated maybe he did: “There is some speculation that Carroll may have written the story using his own direct experience with episodes of micropsia resulting from the numerous migraines he was known to suffer from. It has also been suggested that Carroll may have suffered from temporal lobe epilepsy.”
Cheshire is a county in England where it is stereotyped of its people being too happy and risible. So the Cheshire Cat always comes with a genuine yet somehow disturbing grin.
And if Nick wants to "compare" Burton's version next, beware, it's not a remake: It's a dopey original battle-fantasy based on a video game (the scary-Alice video game Wes Craven wanted to film), where teen Alice comes back, and...thanks to Linda Woolverton's script, becomes an overbearing feminist Mary Sue, LITERALLY fighting her big battle in silver Joan of Arc armor. Yeesh--Now you know why Tim's movie's a punchline.
@@ericjanssen394 yet somehow sadly you’re frightened by strong women. And Alice even in the book was always strong she wasn’t cowed or afraid she stood up to everybody including the red queen.
@@DanaTheInsane IT WASM’T. IN. THE FREAKIN’. BOOK. 🤦♂️ When we saw Tim at the end show a flashback of a perfectly book-friendly Tea Party on the movie’s CGI budget, how many were thinking, “Tim, why didn’t you make THAT movie??” (A: Because TBA was supposed to be a Wes Craven horror version of the video game, but Linda Woolverton is a misandrist looney-bird.)
If you haven't seen these movies, I highly recommend them: Mary Poppins (1964), Sleeping Beauty (1959), and Pixar's Inside Out. They're phenomenal films.
@@whatismylife8100 I thought the remake was nice. The only thing I didn’t really like about it was the fact that they got rid of “The Siamese Cat Song”.
While not a Disney product, one of my favorite fridge magnets features Alice and her cat, and Dorothy and Toto. They’re sitting across from each other in a park, and above them are the words: “I’ve seen some weird 💩 (spelled out).”
Admittedly I hadn’t watched this movie all the way through until recently I find it interesting how Alice hated her perfect world that she sang about in the opening
I'm pretty sure the thing with the treasure cat opening up the tree to take her to a different place is what gave the creators of nightmare before Christmas their concept of a forest of holiday trees each one would have a door representing a holiday on it you go through and you're in that holidays town where it's basically always that holiday
I saw this movie so many times as a kid even though it actually really scared me back then. As a kid I was always afraid of getting lost or loosing my family. Anyway, my favorite Alice adaptation is still the videogame American McGee's Alice, which is basically a dark twisted version of it. Btw, if you liked this movie, you definitely need to watch Spirited away (which is literally called Chihiros journey through Wonderland is some countries), which is very similar but actually way better.
This wasn’t a fairy tale, Nick, it was a book by author/mathematician Lewis Carroll. He used to tell stories to little girls, one of whom was named Alice that were nonsensical and funny in nature, but he emphasized that Wonderland was really awful when you scratched below the surface.
People and their off facts i guess that’s how non fans are. It’s a fairy tale it contains talking animals Lewis Carroll said he intended it to be a fairy tale
Even though the queen is in charge, it feels like the Cheshire Cat is the most powerful resident of wonderland..? He can just open portals, disappear, and take himself apart with no issues.
Actually, she’s technically only as small as a doll all along because in the beginning, she gets small and slides right through the doorknob hole with the bottle and she never changed back! So technically, the world is even weirder because that means that it’s really small! Right? So at the end, it’s either the door shrunk over time, or it was just a little mistake
In the Spanish dubbing, the translator Edmundo Santos dedicated the Alice in Wonderland song to his wife Alicia (Alice), adapting it as a poem for her 🥺
I did not care for the Johnny Depp version at all. This one is great. There are so many movie and tv versions of this. What I love about the story is how well it depicts a dream and how you go along with the ever changing scenery and people as it progresses. A really good version is one from 1933 with Charlotte Henry and some well known old stars.
Nick, what an experience, huh? I am glad you made it! This is not as scary as the live action ones that came after it, especially with the jabberwocky. BTW, don’t watch Terry Gilliam’s Jabberwocky. I love his work, but he still had a ways to go in filmmaking. I would like to recommend Babes in Toyland, where you get to see the Mad Hatter (Ed Wynn) in person as the Toymaker. You’ll also probably fall in love with Annette Funicello. Lastly, if you haven’t already, please watch Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, the stop-motion Christmas film. You can’t miss the island of misfit toys!
when i was a kid i would watch this whole damn movie, even tho some parts bored me, only to get to the hare and the hatter...those two still murder me with laughter to this day in the in spanish translation (that was i guess the mexican translation, even for spain), the hare says instead of "there's only one way to deal with mad watches", "the mad should be treated with caaaare" which makes him hitting the watch so savagely triple hilarious the king is the cutest. poor lil guy
Unquestionably one of my favourite Disney movies, and one of my favourite movies in general. I was raised on this movie and Labyrinth (which I also love with a passion). They opened my eyes to how creative a work of fiction could be. I never get tired of them.
Fun fact: Kathryn Beaumont who voices Alice also voices Wendy in Peter Pan. Bill Thompson who voices the white rabbit also voices Mr Smee in Peter Pan. Verna Felton who voices the queen of hearts also voices Flora in Sleeping beauty, The fairy godmother in Cinderella and Mrs Jumbo in Dumbo
See, this is the level of dark film that we, as a community, can allow Nick to watch. He's too pure. No more Green Mile. No more Squid Games. Just let this wholesome man watch Disney films and leave him alone. Love you Nick
I should refer you to the earlier days of this channel, in which this "wholesome man" watched things like Hellraiser and Aliens, while reclined on a couch like a douchebro, and occasionally saying things like: "Dude, that explosion was siiick." Methinks you've been conned by a doe-eyed dummy, but, please, enjoy his melodramatic explosions of wonder to Brother Bear sequels, or whatever the fuck gets him subscribers (i.e. love and attention).
I don't know, I don't know how Disney does it, but there's no other way that this movie became my favorite Disney movies of all, because when the ending were Alice was dreaming the whole time caught me off guard and there's an outcome. Coincidence? I think not!
I loved the live action Alice, that and there’s a lot of Harry Potter actors in it which makes it sweeter. Rip Alan Rickman. I also love the soundtrack and designs are beautiful.
I feel like everyone is going to say this but, FUN FACT!!: Hatters, in ancient times, did use to go crazy due to a liquid they used in the making of fur hats. That liquid was made of mercury and released a lot of toxic gases which made them go crazy as hell.
I mean it doesn't include the Duchess and her baby, so I wouldn't say most accurate, but not surprising Disney would cut that out of the story haha (Also doesn't include Gryphon and Mock Turtle, which were two characters I always liked)
This is actually my 2nd favorite version of Alice in Wonderland. I really love the TV version that was a 1985 CBS miniseries. If you like musicals & old 60s-80s TV & movie stars, it's brilliant!
A lot of people don't like it but it's actually one of the only live-action remakes (more like a sequel) that I like. I think it's a really good movie.
This particular movie really creeped me out as a child. Especially the Cheshire Cat. Although I’m also aware that Alice in Wonderland is all about the transitioning journey from being an immature child to now becoming a full grown adult.
She got smaller in the court because she ate both pieces of the mushroom. One made her big, the other made her small. Eating both meant she was huge, but it made her shrink back down as well.
People think '90s Disney films are "old," but the classic films from the '30s through the '70s are what I remember from growing-up. "Treasure Island," "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea," the original "Pete's Dragon," "Sword in the Stone," "The Absent-Minded Professor," the original "The Shaggy Dog," "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang," "The Parent Trap," the Herbie the Love Bug films, and SO MANY MORE. A lot of them are locked in the Disney vaults (presumably some of them to be remade, as many already have), and some have been released on DVD, but many of them are just films lost to time ("The Apple Dumpling Gang," for example).
Nick, I love your reaction vids and I now watch them when I’m at the gym, keep up the great work and stay honest and genuine, us audience appreciate that a lot. And take breaks when you need to =)
Wonderland is a land where imagination runs wild, it's Alice's idea of a wonder land. Please react to the live action Alice and Wonderland with Johnny Depp Fun fact: voice actress for Alice is same actress as Wendy in Peter Pan and the White Rabbit is Mr. Shmee
I love how the fact that it is a dream is forewhadowed from the very start before she even sees the rabbit because she hops off the tree and the lady in blue isn't there anymore.
Hey everyone hope you enjoyed the reaction! Next up is Casper and another surprise movie!
Yes. It's not the most spooky but I hope you'll like it.
Great reaction, as always))) Nick, are you planning on watching Thumbelina one day?
So excited to see that one! Always wanted to live in the house from that movie. Also one of my favorite scores, like Homeward Bound, the full score has just only been made available within the last few years.
Awesome! I can't wait to see the Casper reaction! You'll laugh and cry
Which Casper movie?
Dinah is a treasure! She doesn’t talk, she’s a side character but she’s just so cute and curious!❤️🥰❤️
She is voiced by Mel Blanc. (Loony Tunes)
Fun fact:in the italian version of this cartoon,Alice's cat is called Oreste and it's a male.
I love her lol 🐱

Only 8 minutes in and and he's already asking "how much weirder can this get", oh boy.. *this is gonna be fun*
Yep. This entire movie is just one massive trip
Well you would know, wouldn't you?
This was my favorite movie as a child. I lived in an abusive household and used to daydream and escape like her. In a world of my own.
But my friend (her mom because I was like 8 or 9) bought this movie for me on vhs and I watched it everyday. Idk how but it helped me cope. My friend and I even had unbirthdays. As an adult now, I realize you can help an abused child in so many ways. Even if you can’t take them in, try to do something. You never know how much it will help them.
why are you talking about me? we've never met each other!
Beautiful movie. They really don't make hand drawn animated movies like this anymore, which is a shame.
Fun Fact: In the "Walrus And The Carpenter" sequence, the R in the word "March" on the mother oyster's calendar flashes. This alludes to the old adage about only eating oysters in a month with an R in its name. That is because those months without an R (May, June, July, August) are the summer months in England, when oysters would not keep due to the heat, in the days before refrigeration.
Oh thanks for the explication because I wonder myself the reason of the R flashes since years.
And you're right, it was the golden age of Disney movies. I miss the old opening scene with the white castle and the blue background.
So these must be the last ones of the season. No wonder the Walrus took all of them.

There is more Looking Glass than that, but Yeah, I wish they used more.
I can see why, since this was an adaption of a story that doesn’t intend to be a story exactly

One random guy: "Hurray!"
Y'know, the subtitles say that was one of the cards, but I always thought it was Mickey Mouse. Must be the voice.

It's likely Jimmy MacDonald, who was the voice of Mickey at the time. He was also the voice of Jaq and Gus.

absolutely must.
Think Bedknobs and Broomsticks later on?
Oh definitely!
Absolutely!
Funny that you mentioned Mary Poppins because the voice of the Mad Hatter, Ed Wynn, played Uncle Albert in that movie!
Fun fact the cat was voiced by sterling holloway the original voice of winne the pooh. And that was his natural speaking voice

Some Facts regarding Alice in Wonderland
-it basically is a kind of roadtrip movie meet someone have an encounter or move onto something else and there isn’t really a connecting thread other than Alice and she is a blank slate for the audience to view everything strange through her and having her be the normal one to work off of all of the weird and abnormal things in Wonderland and this film does what other adaptations of the story fail to do it knows it has to be a film first so it is easier for the audience to follow whereas others either stick to close to the source material or stray too far for it to make sense to follow
-when Alice is lost and sings the song “Very Good Advice” originally it was supposed to be a scene where she encounters one of the characters being the Knight and was supposed to help her learn the lesson, but Walt thought it would be better if she learned the lesson herself,
-the whole thing regarding “Raven like a writing desk” Lewis Carrol never had intended for the riddle to have an answer, but after receiving so many letters he wrote this in reply: in the preface in a latter edition of the book: “Enquiries have been so often addressed to me, as to whether any answer to the Hatter’s Riddle can be imagined, that I may as well put on record here what seems to me to be a fairly appropriate answer, viz: Because it can produce a few notes, though they are very flat; and it is NEVAR put with the wrong end in front! This, however, is merely an afterthought; the riddle as originally invented, had no answer at all.”
-to this day it is the Disney film with the most songs in it even if some are each only a few seconds long,
-the number on the Hatter’s hat is the price tag which stands for 10 Shillings and a sixpence,
-if you’ll recall this was one of the books in the background in the opening of Pinocchio along with Peter Pan as Walt had wanted to make film adaptations of both as early as the 1930’s, but could never have them work right and wouldn’t be until the 50’s they came to be.
-while this film did okay at the box office and with critics it wasn’t a smash hit the studio wanted, but in the late 60’s was when both Alice and the film Fantasia would find their audiences with college campuses with kids high watching the trippy films,
-the voice of Alice Katherine Beaumont would only work for Disney twice in this and the next film Peter Pan as the voice of Wendy, however, she would reprise the role of Alice in the first Kingdom Hearts game in 2001,
-I’m only bringing this up because you seemed confused as the woman with Alice in the beginning and end of the film is her sister, not mother or teacher and would also be in Peter Pan as the mother of Wendy,
-every character in the film can be found in the books, but one which was made exclusively for this film that being the doorknob,
-this film is where many actors and actresses that worked for Disney again and again can be heard in the following films, not including short cartoons or television work:
Verna Felton who is the Queen of Hearts in this also was the Fairy Godmother in Cinderella and can be heard in the following Disney films: the matriarchal elephant in Dumbo, Aunt Sarah in Lady and the Tramp, Flora in Sleeping Beauty, and Winifred the Elephant in The Jungle Book,
Bill Thompson who is the White Rabbit and the Dodo in this also is most famous as the original voice of Droopy outside Disney, but can be heard as Mr. Smee and several other pirates in Peter Pan,
Jock, Bull the bulldog, Dachsie, Joe the Italian, cook, and the policeman in the zoo in Lady and the Tramp,
King Hubert in Sleeping Beauty,
Uncle Waldo in The AristoCats,
J Pat O’Malley who is Tweedle Dee and Dum as well as the Walrus, the Carpenter, and Mother Oyster in this can also be heard as
Cyril Proudbottom, Mr. Winkie, and a couple others in Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Taod,
Jasper and Colonel in 101 Dalmatians, but was not in Sword in the Stone as you has thought,
Colonel Haiti and one of the Vultures in The Jungle Book,
Otto the dog in Robin Hood,
Sterling Holloway who is one of my absolute favorites is the Cheshire Cat in this, but can also be heard as the Stork in Dumbo,
Adult Flower in Bambi,
the Narrator in Three Caballeros,
Narrator in Make Mine Music,
Kaa in The Jungle Book,
Roquefort in The AristoCats,
And my childhood With Winnie the Pooh in The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh,
Ed Wynn while this being his only animated role for Disney was in several live action films for the studio including,
The Absent Minded Professor,
Son of Flubber,
Babes in Toyland,
Mary Poppins,
That Darn Cat,
The Gnome Mobile,
Richard Haydn who was the caterpillar was Uncle Max in The Sound of Music,
This would be the first Disney film to have end credits to it which wouldn’t happen again until 1985 with The Black Cauldron,
To help animators have a look down they would have the actors playing the roles dress up as their characters and act out the scenes for reference footage I bring this up because for the tea party scene Ed Wynn who plays the Mad Hatter was improvising dialogue with the scene of the rabbit’s watch, but when it was time to do the script dialogue for the scene they found it wasn’t as funny as what he improvised so they used the audio from the reference footage of him,
Same in France : the Cheshire Cat is voiced by the same guy who voiced, Kaa, the snake in Robin Hood, Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Coco Rabbit, Pongo, King Hubert, Bernard of " The Rescuers ", Jiminy Cricket, Timothée of " Dumbo ", Roquefort and Lafayette in " The Aristocats " and a lot again.
He was too the french voice actor of Mickey Mouse, Kermit the frog, Asterix, Maestro of the series " Once upon a time... "
was anyone going to tell me that Alice is Wendy's aunt, or was I just supposed to read that in a youtube comment
@@ceci7114 No they are not related. Just voiced by the same actress.
The Black Cauldron! Oh my gosh, you have no idea how long I’ve been trying to remember the name of that movie. We went to see it at a drive-in when I was a kid and I’ve been dying to see it again but couldn’t remember the name. Thank you!!
That reminds of someone reacting to The Aristocats (not blind, just commenting on all of them) and telling a scared Roquefort to turn into his cat persona, or "better yet, the snake". Sterling Holloway played a lot of animals.
"I know it's supposed to be friendly but that cat scared me so much"
I'm glad I'm not the only one! 😂
The only moment when he scared me was when he stop to smile after laughting and how he disappears after that
Love Cheshire. Disney made him more morally ambiguous and I love characters like that.
If you've seen Wreck-It Ralph, you'll likely notice that the character of King Candy was inspired by this film's depiction of the Mad Hatter.
A funny thing about this movie. I think my favorite moments in this film are all the very brief ones.
"Start when you get to the beginning, and when you get to the end, stop."
"... and the king." (one voice) "HOORAY!"
And most of all... the little baby rose saying, "I think she's pretty."
My favourite line! In Spanish it’d be something like “Start from the beginning. / Yes, and when you’re done talking, shut up” 💀 comienza por el comienzo. Y cuando acabes de hablar, te callas.
if he hasn't seen wreck it Ralph I would definitely recommend that for him!
@@O___________0 in France, it's something like " and stop at the end ".
Also, the french voice of the Cheshire Cat was considered like the boss of the french voice cast because he was the voice of a lot of Disney characters (Nick saw a lot of Disney movies where he's in the french voice cast) even Mickey and no-Disney characters like Asterix, Maestro, Kermit...
Wonderful classic. Sleeping Beauty is a must watch as well.
This movie and the author that wrote the book has been the influence of so many acid trip induced works of art, paintings, sculptures, poems, and even fashion accessories.
I’m honestly devastated that they don’t make movies like this anymore.
I mean, CG is all the rage. It's much less time consuming and easier than just drawing frames per second. I honestly prefer hand drawn.
"I think she's pretty" Bud is so cute!!
Yes it's very cute
Ikr. Why'd they tell him to be quiet like that? 😭😂 So cute.
@@katwebbxo maybe because he's too young for ghis type of conversation
@@katwebbxo Because he's the only one defending Alice.
@@strawberrysoulforever8336 I'm aware of why lol. Just joking.
This movie was golden for me! I never forgot how much I really loved this movie!
Hello Nick! So glad that I get a reaction for one of my favorite movies. When I was little I enjoyed it very much and years later I decided to reach more about it. But I learned that Alice in wonderland is a representation of a kid transitioning to an adult. To a kid the adult world is a very complex thing with all the rules, social etiquette, authority, etc that we need to know or learn to grow up. Alice when through a lot like figuring out how wonderland works by herself and with a little guide with the ones that is from wonderland. But being a curious child, Alice learn that her curiosity has consequences like following the white rabbit and eating the “eat me” cookies and the “drink me” potions. Teens also go through the process of finding their own identity. Like when the caterpillar as Alice, “who are you?”. And she then would reply, “I hardly know”.
The caterpillar and the Cheshire Cat are the only people who really help her when we think about it
@Mochi !
Eat me- Drink Me is a Reference to giving Communion, yu fruitcake..
I’m happy someone here gets it
I feel like with all these insane adaptations, they always miss the heart of what AiW is about and just r really shallow adaptions or just r inspired by really basic concepts.
Wow, thank you! Because of all the hallucinogenic images that came from that movie was co-opted by the hippies, I missed that message about becoming an adult.
I grew up with it as well, it was always one of my favorites and still to this day it is in my top 10 Disney movies! Also thanks for the comment, it made me appreciate it even more! 🕳👱♀️🐇🌻🐛☕🔝♥️👸
The Mad Hatter is a reference to the fact that back in the days this book was written, hats were blocked with Mercury, so people who made hats or wore them often would go insane from mercury poisoning, hence the phrase “Mad as a hatter.” In the book, the Mad Hatter was accused of “killing time” and so time, thinking he was trying to actually murder him, cursed him so that it was always tea time.
The March Hare is a reference to March being the month when rabbits/hares are in a rut and often grow violent toward others for mating rights, hence the phrase “mad as a March hare”
Ah I didn't know that. I suppose it explain the March Hare's reaction when he asks who's Dinah
Despite this being considered a Disney classic nowadays, it what was critically panned across the board at initial release, and one of the biggest criticisms, if not the biggest criticism, from all critics was that it was too whimsical and wasn’t closer to the book. Ironically, it’s the whimsical charm of the film that made it a cult classic and eventually a highly regarded movie, and it needs to be said it was that it was especially beloved by hippies in the 60’s and 70’s for the drug inducing like imagery and tone of the film.
Correct. In fact, Walt regarded it as a failure and didn't put it into the rotation of his animated films that were re-released to theaters every 7 years for new child audiences. It was the only one of his animated pictures that he allowed to be shown intact* on his Sunday-evening TV series, because it wasn't coming back to theaters. (Aside from college and similar special showings.)
(*In fact, not quite intact, because it had to be trimmed to fit into an hour minus commercials. As I remember from my distant childhood, the principal casualty was Tweedledum & Tweedledee, through I'm sure there were snips elsewhere.)
Nick, I kind of can't believe you've never heard of this story XD. I highly recommend reading the book, it's for kids and an easy read but full of the most delightful puns, riddles, dark humor (and this book is incredibly hilarious) and general nonsensicalness. In general, it's an exploration of logic and how different the world would look if things were (according to our understanding) "illogical". Utterly fascinating, the world Lewis Carrol created.
I just realized they were hinting at this all being a dream right from the get go, with the door puzzle.
Often in dreams, you desire it, and that makes it so. The table, key, and box of cakes only appeared once they were suggested to her.
Fun fact: the mad hatter was trapped in an eternal 6 o clock, a perpetual tea time, because Time itself was angry with him for «killing time» by singing a bad song.
*killing THE time.
YOU SAYING “NO! A BROOM DOG” HAD ME WHEEZING IDK WHY!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Oh, how exciting! What a throwback. Alice in wonderland has some lovely music, but that's all I remember, haha.
There are two ways to ruin a version of Alice (and Tim Burton did both), if you don’t get the book’s jokes: Either treat them seriously, where they still don’t make sense, or make up your own dumb ones.
Walt’s version not only GOT Lewis Carroll’s silly jokes from the book-like the Cheshire Cat scene-they managed to translate them perfectly into a kid-friendly Disney environment . 🤣
I loved the 1980's live action Alice in Wonder Land!
@@kristagerry8505 The one with Sammy Davis Jr. as the caterpillar?? That would be an example of the second way. 😖
@@ericjanssen394 yes, it was terrifying but I loved it! It certainly is better than the Tim Burton version 😁
Not to mention the live action sequels actually use poems and stories directly from Carroll's poems and stories.
But this original one still used a line from the poem "the Jabberwoky" at least; when introducing the Cheshire Cat in this version.
Well... I actually really loved Burton's Alice lol
Just in time. Just got home from a party my parents dragged me to, I'm emotionally exhausted, didn't even wanna go. Hopefully this helps. Thx Nick
The cheshire cat is voiced by Jim Cummings, who also voices Winnie the Pooh, and Kaa the Python from The Jungle Book
Including, tigger.
Uh, technically Jim Cummings is the voice actor now. The original was Sterling Holloway, who yes did also voice Kaa and Pooh.
@@Thomas_H._Smith Sterling Holloway is also the voice of the stork in Dumbo. It's impressive that Jim Cummings is able to sound identical to him in all those other roles
@@leahtheanimationfan40 Yeah, ironically in his day Sterling Holloway held the record for the most voices, but now that record is held by Jim Cummings. From one Pooh to another.
An interesting fact
The main writer of this story himself had a kind of disease that caused poor eyesight to see different sizes and perspectives and even different color, just like the wonderland itself.
Yes, you're correct. Alice in Wonderland syndrome is so fascinating, but it's also heartbreaking to realize that individuals have very little control over it.
@@sarah_noyes_ oh that's name it's a fun illness but yeah if you want to pick up something or just walking it's gonna be very hard for you.
Well you’re kind of right, but Lewis Carroll was a man that wrote the books not a woman. Also it is stated maybe he did: “There is some speculation that Carroll may have written the story using his own direct experience with episodes of micropsia resulting from the numerous migraines he was known to suffer from. It has also been suggested that Carroll may have suffered from temporal lobe epilepsy.”
@@jamesmoyner7499 oh sorry I know he was but my writing goes wrong
I'll fix it thanks
Cheshire is a county in England where it is stereotyped of its people being too happy and risible. So the Cheshire Cat always comes with a genuine yet somehow disturbing grin.
I am glad that the original Disney movie isn’t a battle fantasy as Burton’s remake😮💨
And if Nick wants to "compare" Burton's version next, beware, it's not a remake:
It's a dopey original battle-fantasy based on a video game (the scary-Alice video game Wes Craven wanted to film), where teen Alice comes back, and...thanks to Linda Woolverton's script, becomes an overbearing feminist Mary Sue, LITERALLY fighting her big battle in silver Joan of Arc armor. Yeesh--Now you know why Tim's movie's a punchline.
@@ericjanssen394 i know, i know. I just call it a ,,remake” conditionally.
@@ericjanssen394 yet somehow sadly you’re frightened by strong women. And Alice even in the book was always strong she wasn’t cowed or afraid she stood up to everybody including the red queen.
@@DanaTheInsane IT WASM’T. IN. THE FREAKIN’. BOOK. 🤦♂️
When we saw Tim at the end show a flashback of a perfectly book-friendly Tea Party on the movie’s CGI budget, how many were thinking, “Tim, why didn’t you make THAT movie??”
(A: Because TBA was supposed to be a Wes Craven horror version of the video game, but Linda Woolverton is a misandrist looney-bird.)
alice: goodbye dinah, goodbye
me: are you on drugs right now alice?
😆
I think you'd love the art style in the movie The Last Unicorn.
"How much weirder can this get?"
Oh, you have no idea...
I really recommend you to watch inside-out if you haven't already, this is probably one of the best Disney Pixar movies.
Wait has Nick not done that one yet? HOLY CRAP HE WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! Nick, seriously, this is one you will fall in love with. It’s so so good.
the quote which would ever think to look for me here, while she's kinda inside herself is soooo powerful. that song good advice always makes me cry
If you haven't seen these movies, I highly recommend them: Mary Poppins (1964), Sleeping Beauty (1959), and Pixar's Inside Out. They're phenomenal films.
Nick, are you going to watch Lady and the Tramp? That’s a very classic movie.
I am!
Okay.
@@nickflix8657 pls tell me it's the original one! The remake is terrible in comparison
@@nickflix8657 What about The AristoCats?
@@whatismylife8100 I thought the remake was nice. The only thing I didn’t really like about it was the fact that they got rid of “The Siamese Cat Song”.
While not a Disney product, one of my favorite fridge magnets features Alice and her cat, and Dorothy and Toto. They’re sitting across from each other in a park, and above them are the words: “I’ve seen some weird 💩 (spelled out).”
Fun fact : Cheshire Cat was voiced by Sterling Holloway who was the original voice of Winnie the Pooh in the 1970s version.
He was so amazing!!
Admittedly I hadn’t watched this movie all the way through until recently
I find it interesting how Alice hated her perfect world that she sang about in the opening
I'm pretty sure the thing with the treasure cat opening up the tree to take her to a different place is what gave the creators of nightmare before Christmas their concept of a forest of holiday trees each one would have a door representing a holiday on it you go through and you're in that holidays town where it's basically always that holiday
I saw this movie so many times as a kid even though it actually really scared me back then. As a kid I was always afraid of getting lost or loosing my family. Anyway, my favorite Alice adaptation is still the videogame American McGee's Alice, which is basically a dark twisted version of it.
Btw, if you liked this movie, you definitely need to watch Spirited away (which is literally called Chihiros journey through Wonderland is some countries), which is very similar but actually way better.
The whole movie is a lesson in the saying ‘Be careful what you ask for; you might get it.’
This wasn’t a fairy tale, Nick, it was a book by author/mathematician Lewis Carroll. He used to tell stories to little girls, one of whom was named Alice that were nonsensical and funny in nature, but he emphasized that Wonderland was really awful when you scratched below the surface.
As I see it, Wonderland (at least in the book) is a sort of parody of adult society as seen through the eyes of a child.
@@Steve_Stowers certainly aspects of it are, particularly the tea party scene and having to put up with the eccentricities of royalty.
People and their off facts i guess that’s how non fans are.
It’s a fairy tale it contains talking animals Lewis Carroll said he intended it to be a fairy tale
Even though the queen is in charge, it feels like the Cheshire Cat is the most powerful resident of wonderland..? He can just open portals, disappear, and take himself apart with no issues.
The part when Alice was dreaming the whole time in the end still blows my mind to this day.
Actually, she’s technically only as small as a doll all along because in the beginning, she gets small and slides right through the doorknob hole with the bottle and she never changed back! So technically, the world is even weirder because that means that it’s really small! Right? So at the end, it’s either the door shrunk over time, or it was just a little mistake
Rabbit: I’m late
Einstein said times relative, so maybe he’s not late everyone else is early.
"A rabbit is never late. Nor is he early. He arrives PRECISELY when he means to."-Rabbit Gandalf(probably).
In the Spanish dubbing, the translator Edmundo Santos dedicated the Alice in Wonderland song to his wife Alicia (Alice), adapting it as a poem for her 🥺
Anytime I look at a crescent moon I always think of the Cheshire Cat
I did not care for the Johnny Depp version at all. This one is great. There are so many movie and tv versions of this. What I love about the story is how well it depicts a dream and how you go along with the ever changing scenery and people as it progresses. A really good version is one from 1933 with Charlotte Henry and some well known old stars.
"That color got so dark. The queen must be evil or something" -- yeah she'll take your head off! LMAO
If the movie "Babe" isn't on your list, it's time to add it. Babe is the name of the main character, a piglet.
That would seriously make me cry happy tears. I LOVED that movie growing up
How I interpret Alice in Wonderland: “We’re all mad. If we weren’t then we wouldn’t have an imagination”
Nick, what an experience, huh? I am glad you made it! This is not as scary as the live action ones that came after it, especially with the jabberwocky. BTW, don’t watch Terry Gilliam’s Jabberwocky. I love his work, but he still had a ways to go in filmmaking. I would like to recommend Babes in Toyland, where you get to see the Mad Hatter (Ed Wynn) in person as the Toymaker. You’ll also probably fall in love with Annette Funicello. Lastly, if you haven’t already, please watch Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, the stop-motion Christmas film. You can’t miss the island of misfit toys!
when i was a kid i would watch this whole damn movie, even tho some parts bored me, only to get to the hare and the hatter...those two still murder me with laughter to this day
in the in spanish translation (that was i guess the mexican translation, even for spain), the hare says instead of "there's only one way to deal with mad watches", "the mad should be treated with caaaare" which makes him hitting the watch so savagely triple hilarious
the king is the cutest. poor lil guy
Fun Fact: Tweedle Dee and Dum, The Walrus and The Carpenter are all voiced by the same person.
Unquestionably one of my favourite Disney movies, and one of my favourite movies in general. I was raised on this movie and Labyrinth (which I also love with a passion). They opened my eyes to how creative a work of fiction could be. I never get tired of them.
This is my favorite Disney animated classic besides The Hunchback of Notre Dame! I'm so glad you watched it!!
Fun fact: Kathryn Beaumont who voices Alice also voices Wendy in Peter Pan.
Bill Thompson who voices the white rabbit also voices Mr Smee in Peter Pan.
Verna Felton who voices the queen of hearts also voices Flora in Sleeping beauty, The fairy godmother in Cinderella and Mrs Jumbo in Dumbo
And Sterling Holloway, who voiced Cheshire, was also the snake in Jungle Book, the stork in Dumbo, and, of course, Winnie the Pooh. 🍯🐝
I'm not sure if there's an Alice movie as faithful to the spirit of the book as this one.
Certainly none as gorgeous. Look at that 2D animation.
See, this is the level of dark film that we, as a community, can allow Nick to watch. He's too pure.
No more Green Mile. No more Squid Games. Just let this wholesome man watch Disney films and leave him alone.
Love you Nick
Imagine a reaction to something like Watership Down though.
@@PikminandOatchi No, I refuse to imagine that
I should refer you to the earlier days of this channel, in which this "wholesome man" watched things like Hellraiser and Aliens, while reclined on a couch like a douchebro, and occasionally saying things like: "Dude, that explosion was siiick." Methinks you've been conned by a doe-eyed dummy, but, please, enjoy his melodramatic explosions of wonder to Brother Bear sequels, or whatever the fuck gets him subscribers (i.e. love and attention).
I just recently rewatched this movie for the first time in 10 years and am so happy I did! Love the reaction!
Fun fact. This movie has the most songs out all the Disney animated movies.
I love Alice's cat, Dinah. She's my favorite Disney cat.
I like Figaro from Pinocchio too!
Oh of course! How could forget Figaro! I love that little rascal too.
Came here after rewatching Alice In Wonderland for the first time since childhood
Nick: How much weirder can this get?
Me, thinking about the hooka caterpillar: *You don't know the half of it.* 😂
I don't know, I don't know how Disney does it, but there's no other way that this movie became my favorite Disney movies of all, because when the ending were Alice was dreaming the whole time caught me off guard and there's an outcome. Coincidence? I think not!
Same here when I first watched it
Loved this movie growing up, but my kids all think it’s creepy 😄 I guess it is a little. Such a classic though!
Thanks for making this, I always wanted to watch this movies
I literally just couple days ago rewatched this with my mom hoping that someone would react to it, you never disappoint! :D
I loved the live action Alice, that and there’s a lot of Harry Potter actors in it which makes it sweeter. Rip Alan Rickman. I also love the soundtrack and designs are beautiful.
Best Disney movie ever next to sleeping beauty 💜🖤🙌🏻
7:41 Even to this day I can't stop rewinding that part. The honks just make me laugh too much xD
Mary Poppins is an awesome Disney classic and a must watch if you have not seen it! Dick Van Dyke and Julie Andrews gave great performances!
I feel like everyone is going to say this but, FUN FACT!!: Hatters, in ancient times, did use to go crazy due to a liquid they used in the making of fur hats. That liquid was made of mercury and released a lot of toxic gases which made them go crazy as hell.
Bill the lizard was reused as one of Ratigans goons in The Great Mouse Detective.
That's why he looked familiar!
This is the most accurate Alice in wonderland adaption you’re gonna get. Everything is extremely different and only vaguely related
I mean it doesn't include the Duchess and her baby, so I wouldn't say most accurate, but not surprising Disney would cut that out of the story haha
(Also doesn't include Gryphon and Mock Turtle, which were two characters I always liked)
This is actually my 2nd favorite version of Alice in Wonderland. I really love the TV version that was a 1985 CBS miniseries. If you like musicals & old 60s-80s TV & movie stars, it's brilliant!
somehow they can breathe underwater 11:44
One of my favorite Disney Classics. You’ll love the Tim Burton’s 2010 version of Alice in Wonderland. It’s so good.
A lot of people don't like it but it's actually one of the only live-action remakes (more like a sequel) that I like. I think it's a really good movie.
This particular movie really creeped me out as a child. Especially the Cheshire Cat. Although I’m also aware that Alice in Wonderland is all about the transitioning journey from being an immature child to now becoming a full grown adult.
"He's smoking letters"
That ain't all he's smoking
Opium, I reckon!
@@MrParkerman6 my thoughts exactly
She got smaller in the court because she ate both pieces of the mushroom. One made her big, the other made her small. Eating both meant she was huge, but it made her shrink back down as well.
I liked Alice’s idea of writing a book about Wonderland. If I had dreams, especially one that crazy, I would write it in one of my books too.
She is referencing The Alice Books.
@@MrParkerman6 I know, but that’s not my point. My point is I would do the same thing.
This movie was memorizing as a kid and still is tbh. Love the Cheshire cat and Dinah lol. 💕
I love that it's just as much of a fever dream to you as it deserves to be ^°^
People think '90s Disney films are "old," but the classic films from the '30s through the '70s are what I remember from growing-up. "Treasure Island," "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea," the original "Pete's Dragon," "Sword in the Stone," "The Absent-Minded Professor," the original "The Shaggy Dog," "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang," "The Parent Trap," the Herbie the Love Bug films, and SO MANY MORE. A lot of them are locked in the Disney vaults (presumably some of them to be remade, as many already have), and some have been released on DVD, but many of them are just films lost to time ("The Apple Dumpling Gang," for example).
In case you were wondering, that other girl was Alice's older sister.
Nick, I love your reaction vids and I now watch them when I’m at the gym, keep up the great work and stay honest and genuine, us audience appreciate that a lot. And take breaks when you need to =)
You ask how can this get weirder? Oh just wait for it Nick lol love watching!
Now for the live action version! 💜
Wonderland is a land where imagination runs wild,
it's Alice's idea of a wonder land.
Please react to the live action Alice and Wonderland with Johnny Depp
Fun fact: voice actress for Alice is same actress as Wendy in Peter Pan and the White Rabbit is Mr. Shmee
YES!!! One of my absolute favorite disney movies, thank you so much for doing this reaction, I really enjoyed it! :D
I love Nick trying to figure out a movie that isn't supposed to be understood, but just experienced.
I love how the fact that it is a dream is forewhadowed from the very start before she even sees the rabbit because she hops off the tree and the lady in blue isn't there anymore.
