+AspleniumHexe It actually can stop....Alice is free from her madness by freeing herself in wonderland(Alice) and kill that troublecauser(Bumby) I think Alice being free again, accept her fate/death of her family is the perfect ending for the franchise... It's stupid to make her go insane again and again for wathever reason just for the sake seeing her fight in a beautiful world XD I wish there would be more alice games aswell...But the ending of Madness Returns is just too perfect...

She restored herself in the asylum, ended the troublecauser Bumby, and then that beta project you're working on and finally alice visiting minds of other people...I really want the series go on but the storyline is actually complete: Alice saved herself from the madness...

I am relieved: i must confess, i absolutely hated Leviathan, both in terms of story and visuals, but this one does retain the atmosphere of the two originals game while bringing the new creepy imagery inspired by Wagner's universe. Plus, the intro gives a hint of what might happened after Madness Returns. I hope the other ones will be more like this one, and less like Leviathan.

+Roxane Chaudier I think it's nice to see different interpretations... I preferred the story in Leviathan, though I love the visuals of both. I think they each show different sides to Alice: creepiness and oddness in this one and her dialogue and musings on reality in the other.

@roxanechaudier3163 9 жыл бұрын
+stroomkrooma I see your point, though i believe "A Night at the Opera" does show the blurring between reality and "Otherlands" better, by actually showing the transition, not talking about it. It's just like in Madness Returns, when the elements surrounding the everyday life of Alice are found in Wonderland. It's something missing in "Leviathan", making its long dialogue quite confusing at moments.

+Roxane Chaudier I think both films are inspired by the atmosphere of the minds of the people who own them. Leviathan would be quite a bit farther from the two games because Verne's mind was more optimistic and exploratory than Alice's. Less broken, to be sure. So it's lighthearted feel was thematically appropriate for me. It's a let down, if you're expecting Otherlands to be about Alice, since Leviathan was more about Verne. Alice's exploration there is more of helping Verne come to terms with his fear, so that she could recognize her own.

Watching both films, I think I may have a clear hint who the main antagonist might be since I notice all of the antagonists in Alice have a thematic pattern going on which the first one being tentacles (the Queen), The Ruin (Bumby) and now there's seems to be Fire and Destruction theme going on...hmmm...Well I heard about the whole "Prisoner of the Mind" that Mcgee has spoken about but it seems whoever is the main antagonist it seems is probably a step up to Bumby who seems to want to destroy people's minds as if... BTW: And I also like the way how Alice enters the otherlands of others which apparently they have their own "Rabbit Holes" with their own expy's of the "White Rabbit" (like the white paper cutout doll) which is rather interesting which also keeps the theme of what Alice is and how she originally got into Wonderland in the first place. I hope this idea transfers in game form which means Alice has to find "Rabbit Holes" throughout the real world to travel into the minds of others or maybe as if "Wonderland" could also be a "another universe" that reflects ours where it might be a collection of other people's minds formed into one big universe as if...

There is such a thing in psychology known as the Collective unconscious, term introduced by psychiatrist Carl Jung to represent a form of the unconscious (that part of the mind containing memories and impulses of which the individual is not aware) common to mankind as a whole and originating in the inherited structure of the brain. The idea itself really goes into the theme of the first 2 games, so for it to be a big part of a possible third as far as Alice traveling to other's minds would DEFINITELY sit well with the rest.

I love all your works, American McGee! And I really don't care all the flaws pointed out by your fans especially the never-will-be-satisfied ones! Seriously, I appreciate how much you work so hard to keep Alice : Madness Returns alive. I thought the game version was the LAST one from you - but after seeing this; man I'm so freaking happy right now. I'm a BIG FAN of Alice : Madness Returns - and I'll always support you. And also, go easy on yourself! To me, you're like a celebrity of some sort. Celebrities do whatever they want to with their ideas; so really, in your future works, if you want to do Alice 3D model animeish then go for it! If you want to create a new character or make an MMORPG or whatever, GO FOR IT. Opinions are opinions; they're not supposed to change your original ideas! Of course, opinions can help you IMPROVE but don't take them too seriously to the point that you change your original ideas! You're a celebrity! These unsatisfied fans should just create their own game if they have so many "ideas", right? Lastly, take a very good care of yourself. I hope EVERYTHING goes smoothly for you. :)

I absolutely loved Madness Returns and am a huge fan of Richard Wagner so watching this was a sort of fever dream for me. Thank you so much! My only gripe was the music that was included did not take much if any inspiration from Wagner's score. Wagner's mature works, especially Der Ring des Nibelungen, were all very cinematic in their composition that they very much could, without too much reworking, be made into fantastic background pieces to accompany the action on screen or even the levels if this ever made it into one of your games. A great candidate would be the Decent into Nibelheim which already has a sort of decent into hell sort of aspect to it that perfectly could fit here. That said, again kudos to making this. If this ever made it into a game I'd be very happy regardless.

When I heard Alice would explore the mind of Richard Wagner, I expected her encountering facets of his psyche, his antisemitism and his link to the Third Reich, his musical process, perhaps his arrogance. I did not expect a very rushed production of the Ring cycle with little to no regard for Wagner himself.

Honestly, I prefer it that way. She was way too pretty in A:MR. I can definitely appreciate that, but something in me gnaws for the blander appearance of the first game. I don't see any art anywhere that calls to that, it's all the perfect-features anime appearance she has in all the fanart everywhere.

I can't get people's complaints, honestly. Having grown up with this franchise (I was like 5 years old when the first game was released, I would play it with my brother while squeaking from getting scared), being one of my absolute favorite games ever, seeing otherlands simply brings tears to my eyes with its artistic prowess. Being an artist myself, I can see all of the hard work put in this. It's excellent really, thank you for giving us more pieces of our favorite story.

You know what's weird it makes sense for Alice's hair to darker as she gets older but like it was kind of weird how her hair went from being red to being black and in the canceled sequel her hair sometimes is red or a lighter brown or black is Alice dying her hair or is there something else happening cuz I don't know

My headcanon is that Wonderland!Alice is her idealized version of herself in her mind, so her appearance can have changes like that because it's whatever Alice wants to look like

I'm loving these video's at the minute, I think they strongly depict how eerie and strange the smartest of peoples minds are, and I love the fact how each video is made differently and don't really understand the negativity thrown towards it, just because you don't understand why they are like this and what the videos convey doesn't make it disappointing or poorly made, it just adds to it's whimsical and enigmatic atmosphere... as well as being creepy as hell, I hope there are more on the way!

Lol, Alice's face is so weird XD Especially with open mouth, (1:39). And she looks quite old and always angry (that's probably because lack of emotions) :D In the first short characters were roughly modeled, and the animations were quite basic, but at least they looked attractive. Also, I did understand nothing of the plot - maybe I should watch/read original Wagner's opera first. Probably because of that I liked the first short more - at least there was some talking. Anyway, I hope the Kickstarter campaign reached it's goal and there will be something more of the series. Thank you for the games and shorts. P.S: I have watched the new Alice Through the Looking Glass movie, and it seems to have some references to your plot: there is one creepy scene in asylum and the Red Queen's castle is made of red plants resembling tentacles. I was quite surprised :D

I'm glad to see more of Alice. The art style in this is pretty interesting, kinda reminds me a bit of Tim Burton or The Adventures of Mark Twain. What really sold it for me was that moment when Alice stands in front of the camera with her wings spread saying "Not if I can help it". So badass :D

when I first saw the claymation, I was disspointed. BUT as the animation progressed it became less of an "I don't like it because it looks different" feel. the style grew on me a bit, and I was able to appreciate the entirety of the Alice aspect. By the end I was pleased with it, it's just nice to see more Alice.

I've always been a huge fan of stop motion animation, and the little story in this one really gave me that college animation project vibe, which honestly makes it so much easier to feel attached to. I hate how everyone in the comments are giving you shit for this, like I'd love to see more Alice shorts like this! Also, I've been on the fence about what version of Alice I should cosplay as, and this just kinda decided for me. Between the wings, the antlers, and the staff, I've gotta go with this one. This was really beautiful, and I can't wait to see what happens with Asylum :)

I always thought stop-motion animation well suited this series! Tim Burton certainly missed his chance at working with you to make YOUR films. Instead, he made his movie.... which wasn't even an artistic comparison whatsoever to your vision. He didn't even use stop-motion which utterly puzzled me. Keep it up and ignore the hate. I have only one artistic suggestion for these out of purely personal taste: I suggest emphasizing Alice's eyes by making them a bit bigger, glassier, and more cat-like in shape. I think this would draw more character and expression out of her face as well as look more iconic! Just my own suggestion! But please keep making these, I love the whole stop-motion concept! Edit: I hadn't realized at the time that this was the only episode made with stop motion animation. So I suppose you should nix my critique at the end, as it was specifically for this style of animation.

Geez people are so shallow nowadays. It's stop-motion animation guys, and if you didn't know, it takes a hell of a lot of work just to do a couple seconds, let alone a five minute short film. And to those saying Alice "looks ugly," it's clay what can you expect, perfection? And besides, who says Alice has to look perfect or like a frickin model? Can't she just be a person like we all are? Her looks mean literally nothing to the actual story. Personally, I think she looks pretty much the same as the games, just rendered in a different animation style, which is bound to have a few differences here and there no matter what. I enjoyed this short a great deal, and although I'm 2 and a half years late, lol, I'm excited for more!!! Keep up the amazing work Mr McGee!!!

honestly I'd be more comfortable if it kept to wonderland. maybe delving more into the madness she was forever lost in at the end of madness returns. The mind can be very wonderous but very cruel. Maybe send her through the looking glass to find her way out? All sorts of things can be twisted in the mind of a tortured soul when staring at themselves in a mirror. But up to you dear. Love the games very much.
