First Stills From Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland

slashfilm.com has a few beautiful stills from Tim Burton's new version of Alice In Wonderland. There's some pictures of the main characters, as well as a couple of pieces of concept art.

I feel confident that the film will look amazing, but Alice is such an episodic story that it's going to be a tough nut to crack. It sounds like this film (like many Burton adaptations) will be taking a lot of liberties:

"... the film is actually a sequel to the original story, and follows Alice, now 17 years old, as she escapes from a snooty party and follows a white rabbit down a hole, back to Wonderland. The White Rabbit is convinced that he has the right girl, the one who had visited the magical land ten years prior. But Alice doesn’t remember her past visit to Wonderland."

We'll see... check out the links and enjoy!

Iron Man 2, Avengers, Thor, Captain America Films On The Way

Thanks to Iron Man's $100 million + weekend, Marvel Studios has announced their slate for the foreseeable future:

04/30/10 - Iron Man 2

06/04/10 - Thor (directed by Matthew Vaughn)

05/06/11 - Captain America: The First Avenger

07/?/11 - The Avengers

(Thanks to slashfilm.com for the tip)

*************************************************************************************

Well, we'll see what happens. Personally, I'm the most psyched about a Captain America movie.

What I'd love to see is a World War II story, with Cap (and Bucky?) battling the Red Skull. The film ends with the Skull defeated, but Bucky dies and Cap's frozen until present day (the sequel, or the Avengers movie). Hah? Haaaah??
