Are we HOME yet 😆 ... Alice in Wonderland (1951) FIRST TIME WATCHING! | MOVIE REACTION & COMMENTARY!

[@latenightswithsammy]

Next week: The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) or Pinocchio (1940)? Leaning more towards the latter 😆

[@BigGator5]

Pinocchio has my vote. However either one will be welcomed.

[@saragiordano6340]

Pinocchio 🤥💜, although both are very good 👍

[@nickperkins8477]

Either one is worth a watch. Spoiler-free, The Hunchback of Notre Dame is tremendous. I actually like it better than Pinocchio, but Pinocchio is absolutely brilliant, too. The two movies are indicative of the lasting impact of The Walt Disney Company over many decades.

[@bradleyelsken622]

Why not do both? One, and then the other. Both are well worth it

[@BigGator5]

Bradley Elsken ...He is asking for next week. This isn't a zero sum game.

[@nickperkins8477]

When Alice says “Why, in my world, EVERYTHING would be nonsense,” that’s a prediction/foreshadowing. And, then, the rest of the movie is an object lesson in the statement: “Be careful what you ask for; you might get it.”

[@latenightswithsammy]

YUP! A very good reminder for what we wish/hope for ... coming true! 😆

[@rickmartinez3268]

So true on what's already happening

[@hollyodell4012]

My absolute favorite Disney movie, no contest. I was 3 or 4 the first time I saw this, probably one of my earliest memories. It's been with me my whole life. It's hard to imagine what I'd think of it if I saw it for the first time as an adult. The creativity the animators poured into every frame is so inspiring.

[@latenightswithsammy]

What a GREAT film to have as your top Disney film ... it is amazing, and I 100% agree with you, every frame is a masterpiece 😊

[@rickmartinez3268]

A wonderful movie

[@rickmartinez3268]

This movie is funny half the time

[@christopherkaylor2940]

The term Mad as a Hatter comes from the olden days, 1800s and earlier when people who made hats used Mercury which drove them insane, and this movie also inspired different rock groups Beatles and Jefferson Airplane

[@MrParkerman6]

...and Mad as a March Hare stems from the fact that March is when Rabbits are in heat\Horny, so they act Mad.

[@latenightswithsammy]

Ahhh very interesting + unfortunate ... But cool to know nonetheless 😆

[@mnomadvfx]

The one with the lisp just talks that way because the voice actor Ed Wynn had a bit of a lisp too. He plays the character of the laughing uncle in Mary Poppins who keeps floating off the ground when he starts laughing. The character of Turbo in Wreck It Ralph is also visually inspired by his Ed Wynn's appearance too, and the voice actor is doing something of a Ed Wynn impression/impersonation for that role.

[@latenightswithsammy]

Ahhh ... that's very interesting! And also to have a nod to the actor in a more "recent" film ... that's awesome 😆

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

Ed Wynn was a huge star in vaudeville (starting in 1903!), on Broadway, in early radio, and later on television, where he hosted one of the first network comedy-variey shows. He even received an Academy Award nomination for his appearance in *The Diary of Anne Frank* (1959).

[@nickperkins8477]

Alice In Wonderland, as a book and taken together, is named Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland And Through The Looking Glass. They are two stories/books compiled together. It was first published in 1865. The Wizard Of Oz, as a book, was published as The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz in 1900.

[@nowthatisawesome5431]

You gotta love a child’s imagination. Alice created a very unique world in her head. Very trippy indeed, but tons of fun. 😄 Love it!

[@latenightswithsammy]

AGREE!

[@dinodisneylover1]

The Cheshire Cat is one of my most favorite characters in any version. He's a neutral character who sometimes causes a bit of mischief, but mostly helps those who need it. However, the scene where he laughed and disappeared while singing scared the willies out of me. Even gave me some nightmares. The Matrix movies are based on Lewis Carroll's famous stories. The character Morpheus is based on the Cheshire Cat.

[@latenightswithsammy]

Hey ... I can completely understand having nightmares about that cat! And I actually had no idea about the 'Matrix' connection ... but now that you mention it, that's actually very cool! 😆

[@BigGator5]

Beautiful movie. Alice isn't a princess. At least, I don't think she is one. Alice seems rich (or upper middle class), but clearly not royalty in any way. 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.

[@MrParkerman6]

She isn't a princess. She is based on a real girl (as well as others) named Alice Liddle (Meant to rhyme with Fiddle) who was not a princess. However-In the second Alice Book, Alice becomes a chess Piece QUEEN.

[@BigGator5]

MrParkerman6 ...I stand corrected. 👍

[@MrParkerman6]

Uh, not really since you were fairly correct.

[@BigGator5]

MrParkerman6 ...And you're right that Alice (in the books) becomes a Queen. I had forgotten about that fact.

[@MrParkerman6]

As a child this was closest to my own imaginary world. Many kids have dark thoughts and imaginings. As adults we need to realise children have all the spectrum of mental journeys adults do. That’s why as adults we need to carefully help them navigate it all.

[@latenightswithsammy]

So true! I'm glad you were able to relate to this film for its many portrayals of childhood and the importance of imagination 😊

[@ejmythos8570]

Hiya Sammy! I love Alice in Wonderland. Voice acting: The Queen of Hearts is Verna Felton, who also voiced Flora in SB, the Fairy Godmother in Cinderella, and Aunt Sarah in Lady & the Tramp. The White Rabbit is Bill Thompson, who is also King Hubert in SB, Mr. Smee in Peter Pan, and Jock the Scottish terrier in Lady & the Tramp (he's also the voice of Mr. Slade in The Flintstones). Sterling Halloway played the Cheshire Cat, and is also the titular character of Winnie the Pooh (I'LL NEVER RIDE THE POOH ATTRACTION AT THE PARKS, @BigGator knows why, LOL) and Kaa in The Jungle Book. Ed Wynn was the Mad Hatter and he was also in Mary Poppins, Babes in Toyland, and That Darn Cat (and also in one of the all-time best eps of The Twilight Zone). And Alice was Kathryn Beaumont, the voice of Wendy in Peter Pan. Once again, Silver Age Disney showing us just how much the company revered their finest voice actors over multiple films. They were truly epic voice actors and defined so many characters from our childhood. I'm loving watching Sammy discover these for the first time.

[@latenightswithsammy]

IT IS SUCH A GOOD FILM ... stacked from edge to edge with such amazing talent ... and my friend, I am enjoying these so much 😊 each film is a treasure in itself ... they just keep on giving! 😊

[@firebladetenn6633]

Back when the book was written the Mad Hatter was based off the fact that hatters made hats by covering them in lead, they also had to wear those hats for some parts of their development. Causing the hatters to go slowly mad.

[@latenightswithsammy]

No way?! That's very interesting and unfortunate at the same time 😅

[@nickperkins8477]

The villains in Alice In Wonderland are creative and fairly low-key. I have always thought of The Cheshire Cat as a light villain. He is a weird tease of what Alice wants but always falls back on a mocking nonsense.

[@1nelsondj]

I'm over 60 and my favorite book of all time is an annotated collection of the 2 Alice books. This film is nothing like them, Disney cherry picked scenes from both books, leaving out a lot. You need to read them, they're aren't very long and what I like best is the logic puzzles and puns. Alice can't have any more tea because she hasn't had any; no, she can only have more, she can't have less. It's like a math problem. And the Mad Hatter's excuse for failing to fix the watch, "It was the very BEST butter," is illogical because even the best butter won't fix a watch. I have collected 17 different film versions of this story, the weirdest is a live action version with some stop-motion from the Czech Republic by Jan Svankmajer. I think it's the White Rabbit that goes around with a pair of scissors and cuts the heads off of playing cards when ordered to. Much darker than some children's versions. Of note is the 1966 BBC Gothic version with luminaries such as Peter Sellers, Peter Cook, Sir Michael Redgrave, Alan Bennett, Sir John Gielgud and Leo McKern. Also the 1933 Hollywood version with Cary Grant, Gary Cooper, W. C. Fields, Edward Everett Horton (Fracture Fairy Tales), Edna May Oliver and May Robson.

[@latenightswithsammy]

Ahh ... gotcha! Now I'm actually really hyped to read this book! Thank you so much for writing in and sharing your experience with the film 😊

Lewis Carroll published his ‘Alice’ stories in 1865. That’s 35 years before L. Frank Baum started publishing his ‘Oz’ books. I don’t know what if any influence Carroll’s book had on Baum, but the storylines are so similar, it is fun to think about.

[@jamesmoyner7499]

I see some people already shared some fact about the film, but here are some I would like to add and some are repeats, but more organized. Also no I didn’t type it all out just on here, I copy and pasted my previous comment so I can put it here: 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, -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 and he always had the lisp to him, 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,

Hey Sammy. I noticed you’ve been watching a mix of fantasy and horror. If you want to see a movie that has a mix of both, I have Disney recommendation for you. A childhood favorite of mine called RETURN TO OZ from 1985 staring Fairuza Balk. Set 6 months after the tornado that first transported her to Oz, Dorothy has been having trouble sleeping and is sent to a doctor for help. A mysterious girl helps her escape and she ends up back in Oz but things aren’t as she remembers and two new villains have taken over Oz and the Emerald City and it’s up to Dorothy with a set of new comrades to help restore the Emerald City and rescue her old friends from the wicked new rulers. Great special effects for its time and a great score, it also features the dark side of Oz that we know from the books but is rarely captured in film. I have a feeling you’d appreciate it. That and also Labyrinth (1986 starting David Bowie)

“Don’t Come Around Here No More “ is a great one.
