Tim Burtons Alice in Wonderland is a weird mess (in the bad way)

From the Grandpa-Rich file: Movies are weird. i don’t understand them.

I just saw Alice in Wonderland… and eh…what eh…the eff WAS that?… seriously.. what was. ANY. of. “that”. i just. i dont. i… dude – what WAS that?? I don’t get the plot (couldn’t describe it to you if i tried), don’t know why it was called “Alice in Wonderland” when it wasn’t based on either of the books and I don’t understand what any of anything had to do with anything whatsoever.

At the theater there was a long line to get into something that I guess was premiering that night. Something called “Babe, I love you”, which I never heard of. There were signs posted that 2 showings were sold out though so it must be something huge. I googled it when i got home and…wow…

I have no idea what to say other than – How is this real? From the mixed language dialog to the cheesy acting to the over-the-top announcer… what the eff… Its a Phillipino film, but still – even factoring in a cultural difference, this film reeks of WTF. watch this trailer and be amazed that this exists and is super popular…

UPDATE: a commenter told me they thought Alice in Wonderland was “gay, retarded, boring and too short”. funny. like the old (i think its a jewish joke) “the food is terrible here. and such small portions!”
