Alice Week: Movies and TV shows


This week is about Re- Tellings, So instead of sharing ALL the different versions of Alice in Wonderland that have been made over the years. I'm sharing the Retellings and continuations! Movies and shows that have their own special Twist on the tale :)

Movies:

Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland (2010)
19-year-old Alice returns to the magical world from her childhood adventure, where she reunites with her old friends and learns of her true destiny: to end the Red Queen's reign of terror.

One of my favorite versions of Alice in Wonderland.. ok, no.. my FAVORITE. I know many people may disagree, but to each their own. I LOVE Tim Burton's Twists.. and Johnny Depp made such an amazing Hatter!

TV Shows:

Once a Upon a Time in Wonderland: 

To be released in 2014 O.U.A.T in Wonderland is a highly anticipated spinoff from ABC's Once Upon a Time. O.U.A.T quickly became a favorite show of mine as well as my Boyfriend! I loved seeing the twists the writers gave to the fairytales and can't wait to see where they go with Alice in Wonderland!


Alice TV Miniseries:

"Everything you know will be turned on its head."

This miniseries is pure madness. Sci Fi and Fantasy combines to create Alice "intended to be a modern interpretation, imagining how Wonderland might have evolved over the last 143 years"

I absolutely love twists on classics. Going the Sci Fi route is something that creates something really unique and interesting and can create a new fanbase for the classic story.

Song and Sky. Fate and Future all align. On my seventeenth birthday, I finally heard Fate’s voice. He whispered to me again and again, insisting I find the Omen of Stones. Having never heard of such lore, I thought I could ignore his pleas. The Summer Solstice proved otherwise. Being surrounded by fellow witches worked my magic up into a powerful swell that crashed and churned within me. As the energy crackled through my veins, I shunned my royal duties to follow the call of my heart. Venturing beyond the safety of the Kingdom’s borders, I felt Fate nudging me toward a destiny I was eager to claim. Confidence in my craft blinded me from the ominous clouds of danger that roiled on the horizon. Captured by purists de...

The Vicious Deep

The Vicious Deep written by Zoraida Cordova I haven't read any other mermaid YA novels, although I hear there's a relatively new-ish trend towards the mermaid trope.  After reading this one, I'm really not sure I want to seek out any more mermaid books.  I tried to be open-minded and read the whole book, but really, though, this was not a good book for me.  Just in terms of the writing style, basic sentence variation goes a long way to counter awkward writing.  It's something I personally struggle with, but then, I'm not looking to be a published writer either.  Beyond that though, the story itself...Tristan is the obnoxious popular kid you can't stand at school.  He's full of himself, you can't relate to him, despite his role as the main character , he's shallow, sexist, unlikable...the list of adjectives goes on.  He's a caricature of hotheaded teenage arrogance.  Guys, the sentence "I'm not rippling with the muscles of the other bros,...
