This is an episode we've been waiting all season for - some Lewis Carroll up in "Once Upon a Time." "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There" are two of our very favorite books. Have you ever seen the made-for-tv movie of the books starring Natalie Gregory and a host of famous stars? They're so great, the most faithful-to-the-book adaptations we've ever seen. Anyway...
Fairytale Land
This week's guest star is Sebastian Stan as Jefferson, the Mad Hatter before he was the Mad Hatter and who now lives in Fairytale Land and has a daughter named Grace. He agrees to help the Evil Queen get to Wonderland to steal something back from the Queen of Hearts.
Jeff spins his magic hat and a vortex opens to Wonderland. There, he and the Queen go to the Queen of Hearts' heart vault (is that...

We decided to start our little research of immortal young lady Alice in Wonderland, that still, after exactly 145 years, has a power to inspire directors all over the world.
You all guess that the main reason for this certainly is the latest, Tim Burton’s new incarnation of this story.
But let’s start from a beginning. We were all young, we all liked fairy-tales (well, some of us still do), and enjoyed so many characters, we all had our special heroes. Then, what’s so magical about this story, when it still manages to stay on the top of the list?
Ok, we all know the facts, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is written by the English author Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, who used a pseudonym Lewis Carroll. The story tells what happens to a girl named Alice who falls down a rabbit-hole into a fantasy world which is populated...

As I mentioned yesterday, the Very Important Date of Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland (EW gives it a C) has me revisiting the 1985 TV version of the film. Here's one of my favorite clips, featuring Sammy Davis Jr. as the hookah-smoking caterpillar. He'll kick you downstairs...into the deep, dark recesses of your memories from 1985. Don't worry -- I'll give equal treatment to Ringo Starr as the mock turtle, Carol Channing as the White Queen, and even John Stamos as the messenger during the next week! Watching this as an adult is so weird. So many questions. Was every...

Call them "cult classics." "Guilty pleasures." "Comfort movies." We all have a mental rolodex of flicks that may not be terribly popular but, for one reason or another, they resonate in a very special way. Maybe you saw it at the right moment. Maybe you just see gold where everyone else sees feces. Whatever the case, these are the special favorites that you keep stashed away for sick days. Here are some of ours.
Few people will argue that when it comes to grim, eerie and flat-out bizarre film fare, director Tim Burton is a hard act to match. But even without having seen his take on "Alice in Wonderland," I can guarantee you without a shadow of a doubt that it's nowhere near as weirdly terrifying as the "Alice in Wonderland" two-part television special released in 1985.
Natalie Gregory, only ten years old at the time, starred in "Wonderland" as the titular Alice,...
