Both versions are good imo and I loved how the live action versions from 1933 and 1915 had costumes that look very similar to the ones in the original novel. My personal favorite is the 1955 and 2010 remakes.

[@NoodlesDoodles]

In the 33’ one i love how the bottle says not poison like ah yes I’ll drink this mystery liquid that wants me to trust it’s not poison 😂

[@scotpens]

It's a visual shorthand for Alice's inner thoughts in the book: It was all very well to say “Drink Me,” but the wise little Alice was not going to do that in a hurry. “No, I ’ll look first,” she said, “and see whether it’s marked ‘poison’ or not.” For she had read several nice little stories about children who had got burnt, and eaten up by wild beasts, and other unpleasant things, all because they would not remember the simple rules their friends had taught them, such as, that a red-hot poker will burn you if you hold it too long; and that if you cut your finger very deeply with a knife, it usually bleeds; and she had never forgotten that, if you drink much from a bottle marked “poison,” it is almost certain to disagree with you sooner or later.

The 1933 version is- nightmare fuel. Still amazing though. The combination of animation and real life is ok but- man those special affects seemed like something that wouldn’t have been available until the 40s. Ok but the caterpillar saying "WHO ARE YOU-" in the 33 version genuinely terrified me.

[@MBM1117727]

Even in the 20s some movies had pretty amazing special effects. Check out Ben Hurr from 1925.

In many parts I prefer the 1933 version, such as the "Drink me, not poison" part. Hahaha. I've always wondered how Alicia could be trusted to drink that without knowing if it was poisonous or something, now it makes more sense.

[@ejay1118]

In the book, she thinks to look for a label marked "poison," because if one drinks from a bottle marked "poison," it's bound to disagree with one sooner or later. In Disney's version, she actually says this out loud.

Demasiadas secuencias fílmicas idénticas a la versión de 1933 en la película de 1951, debió haber puesto en los créditos el nombre de Norman McCleod porque no es una adaptación del libro de Lewis Carrol lo que hizo Disney, sino una versión animada de la película de 1933.

51 is better in my opinion. The first one I actually saw was the Hello Kitty one, in 1993, but I watched it when I was like 5 - 7, then I saw the 1951, out I was on KZbin, and the first scene I saw was the doorknobs scene and the scene where Alice flooded the room with her tears.

I remember my teacher made a little quiz for us after the 2 day TV movie aired, and then we read Alice in Wonderland in the classroom! Those were fun times! You know, I wonder if teachers today do projects like that-it makes learning fun! In fact, my high school history teacher was just as creative. In 1989, we did a report on social studies using Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" as a reference. I probably wouldn't have retained the info half as well if it didn't become a fun project to learn with a catchy new tune and relating it to our studies

As they didn't have "computers" at all, they couldn't have CGI, now could they? They would sometimes use a black screen the way we use a green screen today to superimpose the character over some other background. But for the most part, it was "practical" effects or nothing at all.
