I think Alice does have some characterization in the movie. She’s mischievous, imaginative and am I the only one that thought she was a little bit mad herself? Like as soon as she falls down into the entrance, she just immediately goes with it without panicking or anything
To be fair, the book is more "My sister's book is really boring because it has no pictures and conversations, and I'm bored because....HEY LOOK!! A BUNNY!!!!"
Love this movie to death! You honestly have no idea how excited and happy I was when I heard that you were going to review Alice In Wonderland! And I hope you keep reviving classic Disney animated films this year!
Alice In Wonderland is one of my favorite Disney movies and Alice is one of my favorite Disney characters. Kathryn Beaumont does a great job voicing her and bringing her to life. The movie also lead me to read the book which I enjoyed even though it's been years since I read it.
Kieran Stark Dafuq? I admit that the Pokémon anime isn’t Avatar: The Last Airbender or anything when it comes to its writing and characters, but it isn’t bad enough to warrant a 5/10. At most I’d say a 6 or 7. Especially since the story is actually quite good, being that Mewtwo is a pretty complex villain with a sympathetic backstory. He wants to wipe out the world not just ‘cause he’s the strongest Pokémon, but because he was seen as nothing but a weapon and experiment for humans to use. And so he’s essentially doing what he was made for-just against humans rather than for them.
Kieran Stark I know that, I’m just stating that the overall film isn’t that bad, so it wouldn’t make sense as to why Animat would give it such a low rating, even if his feelings were mixed. At least from the perspective of a Pokémon fan. But who knows, we’ll just have to wait and see. And I consider a 5/10 to be mediocre, or not something that would be worth my time (which’s how I feel about some of the later Pokémon films.)
Kieran Stark Well scores are subjective as all hell in the first place, so it really depends on who you ask. For me, a 5/10 is mediocre, a 6/10 is okay and anything above that is good, while anything below a 5 is bad. I don’t really know that many critics out there who’d give a 6/10 to something that they consider “good,” but that’s just me. Which’s why, as a Pokémon fan that doesn’t consider the movie to be “not good” enough to warrant a 5/10, I find it baffling that AniMat would give it one. But this’s pure speculation, so as I said, we’ll just have to wait and see. And I haven’t watched Nostalgia Critic’s review on Pokémon: The First Movie, but from the looks of it I probably shouldn’t, since I’d just be filled with salt. I’m actually pretty sure he said that Avatar was great though, since I watched his Top Ten Worst Avatar Episodes list a while back, and I remember him saying something along the lines of “these’re still episodes from an amazing show, so don’t consider them the worst, but...the ‘least best.’”
Harry Thomas Pictures Who DOESN'T agree? I think even Tim Burton himself could still make a better one. He wasn't the screenwriter on the movie, and that's where most of the problems stem from. Edit: I found people who don't agree. Well, I liked The Lovely Bones, so who am I to judge?
Harry Thomas Pictures I agree, as the animated movie works so much better. I totally enjoy the unconventional story and how it has themes of being in another world, and being careful what you wish for. The only major problem I have with it is that the ending is too abrupt.
It is so surreal comparing the 1939 draft to the final film. The 1939 draft in comparison is disturbing as hell by Disney standards,it makes me wonder if there’s a alternative universe where that’s the film we got.
Ah yes, one of my all-time favorite Disney films, as well as one of my all-time favorite films in general. Much like with The Phantom Tollbooth, this film's a VA Smorgasbord of who's-who, with talents like Kathryn Beaumont, Bill Thompson, J. Pat O'Malley, Sterling Holloway, Jerry Collonna, Ed Wynn and many others providing the film with hilarious dialogue and memorable bits for the feature. Sure, it's kind of a shame that Disney couldn't go all-the-way with this movie, but they openly admitted to this being a "Running Out of Time Before the Deadline" problem and less a "We Don't Care About the Film" problem like with certain other Alice in Wonderland films (cough, the Live Action Ones, cough). And for what we got, I would definitely give this a seal of approval!
I would have loved to see the animat seal of approval for this one.. it's a fun and surreal masterpiece above it's time. Surrealism is common now in animation and honestly, I believe this movie set inspiration for many of that kind.
I just can't wait to see your upcoming next classic review Pokemon the First Movie! The first time you are going to review Pokemon, my most favorite beloved animated series I love as a kid in my childhood. Thank you so much!
Considering that this movie came out over four decades before I was born, I find it surreal to admit that this movie is a nostalgic treasure of mine. Even to this day, I look back on this wonderful piece of animation fondly, regarding it as one of the best Disney animated films to exist.
I'm sad the mock turtle never made it into the film. I did a play of Alice in Wonderland twice in high school, and one of those times I was cast as the Mock Turtle, and I loved playing him.
Grant Awa He doesn’t like Pokémon in general. Well in real life, he is actually indifferent with it. Speaking of NC. Have you been catching up to the recent controversy regarding Channel Awesome?
ah ok, btw why I think Wizards would be better than Fievel goes west is because fievel has a couple 4s while Wizards' lowest numbers where 4 and 6 and having better animation wouldn't count as how good a movie could be, while Titan AE would be better than A Liar's Biography because, sure, they're so close, it's better to have a stronger story than stronger characters
Not really among my list of all time Disney faves, but still one I consider a Disney classic. I especially love the Golden Afternoon song. And it looks like the first Pokemon movie is coming next. Really curious to see how that review goes.
I wonder why Alice in Wonderland never got a direct to video sequel along with Dumbo Pinocchio Robin hood great mouse detective the aristocats the sword in the Stone sleeping beauty and snow white and the seven dwarfs
Some of them didn't need sequels. This one could probably have done it better because it doesn't stick to a traditional story as much. I can't see a Dumbo 2, though. What was there left for him to do? Also, I feel like it could fall into the same trap as Lady and the Tramp 2 and make the human characters too evil.
JamesTheBrony/JTB I just hope he doesn't give a negative review since he's a Pokemon fan. All though he said in the Yo-Kai Watch movie review that Pokemon's first movie did a good job on introducing people to the series, so he might like it.
Alice is cute and beautiful and graceful as a swan (her spirit animal). her dress is so beautiful. When it puffs up as a parachute, it’s looks like she have wings and she’ll float down gracefully like a swan
I thought that the Live Action/Animated movie was shelved because Paramount was doing something similar at the time? They talked about that on the Snow White Platinum Edition DVD, I believe.
Wow, I do wonder what the next review is gonna be.... Nobody in there right mind knows the music in the background is... I mean... It's obviously Digimon.
Dumbo 2 Was announce and planned in 2002 it Was involving thimoty Dumbo meeting baby animals that got Lost in new York city but the sequel Was cancelled by John lasseter
First let me say that this is my favorite adaptation of Lewis Caroll's story. I have actually read the book from start to finish twice, and all I can say is it was much easier to follow the story in animation than anything else. I also liked hearing actual child Kathryn Beamont as the voice of Alice. Especially since she would become the voice of Wnedy in Peter Pan. Speaking of the voices, THAT is my favorite part of this movie; there are so many voices that I'd might as well expect in a Disney movie that all I can do is try to remember the other Disney movies they have been in. That is very interesting, and it's something to admire. So what I like about Disney's Alice in Wonderland is the voices and how it helped me understand the books better. But if I need to complain about something, let's go back to what Animat said about there being NO STORY. As someone who takes story seriously, it's hard for me to take that the most this movie has is Alice following the White Rabbit. Some parts of the project I do like, especially the parts with the Cheshire Cat, and Tweedledee and Tweedledum, but there are also parts that I hate, ncluding the Queen of Hearts being absolutely cruel. And while I do like Alice's child voice, the beginning made her look pretty spoiled. There are moments when I do want to root for her, especially to escape the Queen of Hearts, but there are also times when I don't like her behavior. So while I do respect this movie as the BETTER retelling of Lewis Caroll's story, I cannot put it among my favorite Disney movies.
Full Voice Actor List Kathryn Beaumont: Alice - Bill Thompson: The White Rabbit, Multiple Males - Sterling Holloway: The Cheshire Cat - J Pat O'Malley: Tweedledee, Tweedledum, Multiple Males - Verna Felton: The Queen of Hearts - Ed Wynn: The Mad Hatter - Jerry Colonna: The March Hare - Heather Angel: Alice's Sister - Richard Haydn: The Caterpillar - Joseph Kearns: The Doorknob - Thurl Ravenscroft: The Main Card Guard, Multiple Males - Dink Trout: The King of Hearts - Pinto Colvig: Alice's Flamingo, Multiple Males - Don Barclay: One Card Guard - Max Smith: Another Card Guard - Bill Lee: Yet Another Card Guard - Bob Hamlin: One More Card Guard - Jimmy McDonald: The Dormouse - Larry Grey: Bill the Lizard, Multiple Males - Queenie Leonard: A Snooty Flower, Multiple Females - Lucille Bliss: A White Flower, Multiple Females - Doris Lloyd: The Rose - Marni Nixon: A Singing Flower
Well Pinocchio 2 Was supposed to be released the sequel Wil happen 10 after the events of the first movie but it Was cancelled by Pixar director John lasseter
We were somewhere around Tugley Woods on the edge of Wonderland when the cake began to take hold. I remember saying something like "I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should drive...." And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like huge borogoves, all swooping and screeching and diving around the Dodo, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with the top down to the Caucus Race.”
I loved how these Disney classics utilized voice actors, or character actors with distinctive voices. They all seemed perfect for these parts. Robin Williams in "Aladdin" changed all of that. Suddenly, many animated features now wanted big name stars to voice the characters, and while it held a marque value, the sound was just not the same.
I felt weird unexplainable feelings throughout this movie, but I especially got these unexplainable feelings in the end of the movie, when she was crying in the dark forest.
17:29 That would be an interesting idea for Epic Mickey 3. Mickey finds a new section of the wasteland for the Of characters that were scrapped from Disney movies.
I wonder if you going to finish reviewing the Disney rennaseince movies like the little mermaid 1989 beauty and the beast 1991 Aladdin 1992 The Lion king 1994 Mulan 1998 and Tarzan 1999
The aristocats 2 Was announce and plamned in 2007 involving duchess Marie tolousse and Berlioz tried to stop a Jewel thief but the sequel Was cancelled by John lasseter
Curious if he’ll review the American version or Japanese version of Pokémon the First Movie given some of the key differences between them most notably Meetoos dream sequence.
It came famous when it Was released and had merchandisisse appearances in live shows like Disney on ice Disney parks and most several video games and tv shows
Interesting thing about this movie is that it uses a lot of dark backgrounds while Alice is in wonderland, which gives it an ominous fantasy feel, which is fitting because its in a world deep down a rabbit hole. Also, unlike other adaptions, this one actually gives the illusion that it was all just a dream, made prominent that it never got a sequel, even though there was in fact a second book. It may be it's own thing, but it's definitely something a lot of movie makers, especially Disney nowadays in the case of the Tim Burton reboot should learn from when making adaptions!
I had great memories watching this in my past, in fact I consider it my all time favorite Disney Movie, not one of them, I mean my number 1, top favorite
I honestly don't mind what was left out of the movie. It doesn't really matter what's in there and what isn't, what's important is that the experience of reading Lewis Carroll's books is accurately translated into movie form. I remember hating "Very Good Advice" myself and I wish they'd kept the White Knight in. Maybe he could send her to the queen instead of the Cheshire Cat, but out of good intentions. However, the line starting the song is straight from the book - they actually describe how Alice gives herself good advice but very seldom follows it. Basically, a normal child who knows the right action but often gives in to what she wants over the right thing.
Great review, like, you really give detail about every aspect of the movie instead of just mentioning many facts with little connection and explanation. Improoving I see. I just think that the animation shouldn't be as important as the others
While yes this is the better version of Alice in Wonderland the live-action Tim Burton wasn't bad I think what they should have done is rename the title to "return to Wonderland". As for Through the Looking-Glass it was not that great and don't blame that on Tim Burton because he didn't even direct that one.
I enjoyed the Original Movie, but I honestly was more of a fan of the Live Action Alice in Wonderland show that aired on The Disney Channel called "Adventures in Wonderland". I enjoyed the movie, but I was never the biggest fan of surrealism and the characters weren't really that nice.
It seems like sleeping beauty also supposed to have a sequel but got got cancelled the only evidence that we got close to a sleeping beauty sequel Was the book maleficent returns
This movie was re-released in 1974, just two years before the infamous sexploitation musical with Playboy model Kristine DeBell was released, and I’ve seen bits and pieces of the X-rated version and it doesn’t make any sense. There were tons and tons of versions of this classic. There was also a 2-part TV movie from 1985, and another from 1998. There was also a song called “White Rabbit” by Jefferson Airplane and one of the last words of the song was “Feed you head”. In addition, a 1973 TV movie based on the song called “Go Ask Alice”. And two years before Disney’s reissue came the other live action adaptation from 1972 with Hywell Bennett.
Hey animat you should do classic reviews on these movies which are Open season Monsters vs aliens Shark tale Shrek Hoodwinked Barnyard The ant bully Ice age dawn of the dinosaurs and space Chimps.
Kieran Stark if animat reviews eight crazy nights I hope he tears it apart, I really don’t like that movie. Do you think he’ll probably give it the animat seal of garbage?
I think that he Wil give the little mermaid the little mermaid animat s reviews the story: 10/10 animation: 9/10 characters 10/10 songs: 9/10 animat seal of approval
I think Alice does have some characterization in the movie. She’s mischievous, imaginative and am I the only one that thought she was a little bit mad herself? Like as soon as she falls down into the entrance, she just immediately goes with it without panicking or anything
You’re definitely not wrong.
7:44 “Hello, my name is Alice. I am a little girl and...
HEY LOOK A BUNNY!”
That got me a chuckle.
I burst out laughing!
"Hello, my name is Alice. I'm a little girl and........."
*HEY LOOK!!! A BUNNY!!!!!!!!*
lol
LET'S FOLLOW IT
Lol
😂😂
To be fair, the book is more "My sister's book is really boring because it has no pictures and conversations, and I'm bored because....HEY LOOK!! A BUNNY!!!!"
I love the original Alice in Wonderland!
I know right, it's my favorite Disney movie of all time. Here's a like for you. Your welcome.
I remember the song when Alice lost a trail in the woods. It made me really sad and wanting to give her a hug :,(
Love this movie to death! You honestly have no idea how excited and happy I was when I heard that you were going to review Alice In Wonderland! And I hope you keep reviving classic Disney animated films this year!

It's my favorite too. Take my like with my gratitude.

Who agree’s this version is superior to the Tim Burton one?
I do, wholeheartedly
Harry Thomas Pictures Who DOESN'T agree? I think even Tim Burton himself could still make a better one. He wasn't the screenwriter on the movie, and that's where most of the problems stem from.

Harry Thomas Pictures Without a doubt
Oh, I love this movie! I always figured if there was a story, it was Alice realizing a Wonderland would actually be terrifying.
m3rrys0ngstr3ss Same. That's actually the basis for a relatively common comparison with Coraline.
ajmrowland Wonderland is like the Joker. It can be silly and fun or....it can be like McGees Alice.
It is so surreal comparing the 1939 draft to the final film. The 1939 draft in comparison is disturbing as hell by Disney standards,it makes me wonder if there’s a alternative universe where that’s the film we got.
Yeah
Like the Cat looks like it come out of a horror film , Alice was freakin put in a guillotine , Mad Hatter and March Hare are horrendous
I'm surprised AniMat didn't give this the AniMat's Seal of Approval.
Ah yes, one of my all-time favorite Disney films, as well as one of my all-time favorite films in general.

Not really among my list of all time Disney faves, but still one I consider a Disney classic. I especially love the Golden Afternoon song.
And it looks like the first Pokemon movie is coming next. Really curious to see how that review goes.
I wonder why Alice in Wonderland never got a direct to video sequel along with Dumbo Pinocchio Robin hood great mouse detective the aristocats the sword in the Stone sleeping beauty and snow white and the seven dwarfs
Melisa Cangele I didn’t even know Pinnochio got a sequel...go figure.
Crono Sapien She means that it doesn't have one like those other movies
Dominic Caruso Ah, okay. I guess the wording confused me, then.
Some of them didn't need sequels. This one could probably have done it better because it doesn't stick to a traditional story as much. I can't see a Dumbo 2, though. What was there left for him to do? Also, I feel like it could fall into the same trap as Lady and the Tramp 2 and make the human characters too evil.
Well I'm not surprised Pokémon: The First Movie is next to be reviewed.. The music kind of gave the game away.
JamesTheBrony/JTB I just hope he doesn't give a negative review since he's a Pokemon fan. All though he said in the Yo-Kai Watch movie review that Pokemon's first movie did a good job on introducing people to the series, so he might like it.
We'll see soon enough.
You have no clue how big my smile was when I saw this in my feed 😃
Wow, first 8.5 ever.
I thought he would give it a 9.
Nicholas Sims Bot Not if you keep pestering me about it
Laura Jones I guess it still technically and theoretically counts as a 9/10, since it is one of his favorites
I bet Disney can have pottenciall ideas for a possible sequel to this movie
Alice is cute and beautiful and graceful as a swan (her spirit animal). her dress is so beautiful. When it puffs up as a parachute, it’s looks like she have wings and she’ll float down gracefully like a swan

One of my favorite Disney movies ever
I was hoping that you will pick up an animated form the animation hat that I wanted you to review. That made my day. Thank you so much.
I wanted him to review Pokémon: the First Movie. I even had it on "When I can support for $75" request list.

Hears of next review: Three movies that would make you go squee in a row? Wow at this point you are a lucky reviewer.
I love the idea of the lizard guy. Forgot his name. From the book I mean, the one that didnt get the cut.
I felt weird unexplainable feelings throughout this movie, but I especially got these unexplainable feelings in the end of the movie, when she was crying in the dark forest.
bro i felt weird asf watching this and it bothered me in a psychedelic way that i can’t explain but it made me feel weird
Surprised you didn't give the film your seal of approval...
Same.
Man, I wish The Gryphon, Mock Turtle, And Humpty Dumpty were in here🙁, still a great film though😃👍🏾
17:29 That would be an interesting idea for Epic Mickey 3. Mickey finds a new section of the wasteland for the Of characters that were scrapped from Disney movies.
This animated classic is a supreme masterpiece compared to the crappy live action reboots. 😝 and is...is that....POKEMON?! YAAAASSSS!
Hey animat can you review The Little mermaid 1989 next please
I wonder if you going to finish reviewing the Disney rennaseince movies like the little mermaid 1989 beauty and the beast 1991 Aladdin 1992 The Lion king 1994 Mulan 1998 and Tarzan 1999
I imagine he'll give Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King a 10/10 while The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Mulan and Tarzan a 9/10.
This is my favorite classic Disney film.
The aristocats 2 Was announce and plamned in 2007 involving duchess Marie tolousse and Berlioz tried to stop a Jewel thief but the sequel Was cancelled by John lasseter
Curious if he’ll review the American version or Japanese version of Pokémon the First Movie given some of the key differences between them most notably Meetoos dream sequence.
Alice sounds like Wendy from Peter Pan
It came famous when it Was released and had merchandisisse appearances in live shows like Disney on ice Disney parks and most several video games and tv shows
I loved both movies... though I wish ... the old one had a longer run time
How is a raven like a writing desk?
ajmrowland Simple. Because Edgar Allan Poe wrote on both. He wrote The Raven and he wrote it on the writing desk.
They're both depressing?
@The Dracobirthstonian no you go fuck off
Aladdin 1992 story: 10/10 animation: 9/10 characters: 10/10 songs : 9/10 animat seal of approval
Interesting thing about this movie is that it uses a lot of dark backgrounds while Alice is in wonderland, which gives it an ominous fantasy feel, which is fitting because its in a world deep down a rabbit hole. Also, unlike other adaptions, this one actually gives the illusion that it was all just a dream, made prominent that it never got a sequel, even though there was in fact a second book. It may be it's own thing, but it's definitely something a lot of movie makers, especially Disney nowadays in the case of the Tim Burton reboot should learn from when making adaptions!
Beauty and the beast 1991 story : 10/10 animation 9/10 characters: 10/10 songs: 9/10 animat seal of approval
The Next Review is Pokemon: The First Movie, another animated film based on an animated series that just nowadays refuses to end.
I had great memories watching this in my past, in fact I consider it my all time favorite Disney Movie, not one of them, I mean my number 1, top favorite
I love hearing the context.
Pretty great job👍😃 AniMat!!!
I honestly don't mind what was left out of the movie. It doesn't really matter what's in there and what isn't, what's important is that the experience of reading Lewis Carroll's books is accurately translated into movie form.
I remember hating "Very Good Advice" myself and I wish they'd kept the White Knight in. Maybe he could send her to the queen instead of the Cheshire Cat, but out of good intentions. However, the line starting the song is straight from the book - they actually describe how Alice gives herself good advice but very seldom follows it. Basically, a normal child who knows the right action but often gives in to what she wants over the right thing.
POKÉMON THE FIRST MOVIE!! I remember when I requested that!!
Great review, like, you really give detail about every aspect of the movie instead of just mentioning many facts with little connection and explanation. Improoving I see. I just think that the animation shouldn't be as important as the others
The Lion king 1994 story : 10/10 Animation: 10/10 characters: 10/10 songs: 10/10 animat seal of approval
While yes this is the better version of Alice in Wonderland the live-action Tim Burton wasn't bad I think what they should have done is rename the title to "return to Wonderland". As for Through the Looking-Glass it was not that great and don't blame that on Tim Burton because he didn't even direct that one.
I enjoyed the Original Movie, but I honestly was more of a fan of the Live Action Alice in Wonderland show that aired on The Disney Channel called "Adventures in Wonderland". I enjoyed the movie, but I was never the biggest fan of surrealism and the characters weren't really that nice.
It seems like sleeping beauty also supposed to have a sequel but got got cancelled the only evidence that we got close to a sleeping beauty sequel Was the book maleficent returns
This movie was re-released in 1974, just two years before the infamous sexploitation musical with Playboy model Kristine DeBell was released, and I’ve seen bits and pieces of the X-rated version and it doesn’t make any sense. There were tons and tons of versions of this classic. There was also a 2-part TV movie from 1985, and another from 1998.
There was also a song called “White Rabbit” by Jefferson Airplane and one of the last words of the song was “Feed you head”. In addition, a 1973 TV movie based on the song called “Go Ask Alice”.
And two years before Disney’s reissue came the other live action adaptation from 1972 with Hywell Bennett.
The very first 8.5 score in the review series
Hey animat you should do classic reviews on these movies which are
Open season
Monsters vs aliens
Shark tale
Shrek
Hoodwinked
Barnyard
The ant bully
Ice age dawn of the dinosaurs and space Chimps.
Luigi Marinus 3 shark tale came out in 2004 not 2003.
Kieran Stark animat should also do a classic review of eight crazy nights.
Kieran Stark if animat reviews eight crazy nights I hope he tears it apart, I really don’t like that movie. Do you think he’ll probably give it the animat seal of garbage?
We never got a sequel to Robin hood or great mouse detective
I did a report on this film my junior year of High School.
I think that he Wil give the little mermaid the little mermaid animat s reviews the story: 10/10 animation: 9/10 characters 10/10 songs: 9/10 animat seal of approval
I think he'll give the songs a 10/10.
