Alice

First of all, I'd like to address the network's name change from SciFi to SyFy. It goes from shorted words to mere syllables, that don't have a meaning on their own. A 2 letter difference: was it worth it? Is it effective? It definitely adds to my fear of NewsSpeak.

This "Alice" in Wonderland story was very cool. It not only took place in today's modern world, but also modernized the fairytale world of Wonderland. It had a corrupt economy, which was very interesting, and probably reminiscent of our own world.

The scenery was beautiful. I loved the Knights' fortress with the gargantuan chess pieces. The house of cards as a casino was brilliant. I liked how the roof design was giant dominoes.

I enjoyed identifying the classic characters. Caterpillar's coat was really cool. It gave the caterpillar look. I loved Alice's dress. I miss the card on Hatter's hat. Dr. Dee and Dr. Dum were really creepy.

The film (miniseries?) was presented in 2 parts, 2 hours each. That may seem long, but I couldn't get enough! I didn't want to leave Wonderland, but I'm glad a bit of Wonderland went home with Alice.
