[LindsayTheWolf13]

@kiwihead441 You and me both, pal. My friend and I call him "The March Jackass" because he looks like a donkey. XD

[Perfidion]

Martin Short is awesome. He was awesome in Merlin, and he's awesome in this. He's just generally awesome.

[AymeHitari]

She's the actress from P!nk's " F*cking Perfect video?

[KingCommando32]

Alice in Wonderland (1999): In 5 seconds: "Auntie's Wooden leg!"

[quizzlefits]

This video starts off in the middle of the song. Dang. :(

[MartinShortLover]

I stayed up late on a school night when this orginally aired JUST to see Martin as the Mad Hatter. XD 

[geniusABBY]

Why can't I embed? :(

[blazingsonic]

I came from Tv Trope's nightmare fuel page, why isn't this in the crowning moment of funny page?

[7GollyGeeWilliKers7]

"Aunties wooden leeeeeeggggg!" *Prolonged fall*

"He's murdering the tune, off with his head!" haha.

"It could almost past for singing!"

[DRYKJ17]

I luv the Chessire Kat, the mad hatter, and the hare (notice he has human hands?)

[Aluminessa]

He falls off the table..and alice is all

._ .

xD

[ctdsnark]

{0:33} DOWN with Bloody Big Head!!!

{sorry,couldn't resist---I do like this version!}

[Spazzbert]

Out of all the film adaptations, this one is probably the only one that TRIED to capture the strange and witty essence of the book. I love it.

[PapagenoJuan2]

Youtube classic :))

[dustinchalcom]

one word.........TRIPPY!!!!!!

[giveTHANX2jaH]

why wasnt martin shorts face on the front of the cover when johnny depps face was and johnny ruind the hole movie by playing Grounds Keeper Willie Van Gogh from sipsons insted of the mad hater ....i under stand he was good in edward sissor hands and every female thinks hes hot but plz make a good movie with real actors we dont care if their well known or popular

[Ezzyd]

this isnt from 1999 is it

[lulujakub]

I love this. This movie was so much better that Tim Burton's...

[LightStijn]

This is, without doubt, the best Alice in Wonderland movie. The cast is absolutely brilliant. Martin Short, Ben Kingsley and Christopher Lloyd in one movie?!

Although I like most of Tim Burton's movies, his version of Alice was simply terrible. Way too Hollywood-ish.

[Mellow0grl]

i love this version the most i think or the cartoon version which was the first version :) the new alice in wonderland has lost the original plot which sucks :(

[Gammerman12]

@Mellow0grl

The new one is a sequal. Derp.

[darkstar62]

I love this version of the movie.

[megskin94]

why are ppl talkin about tim burton's alice and avatar this video is so not either of them so it doesn't matter and i loved both of those movies and this one so...

[LikaLaruku]

Humerously, Martin Short actually looks like the Mad Hatter in the book.

[7GollyGeeWilliKers7]

@LikaLaruku

As well as the cartoon in the Disney movie ^_^ (Martin Short look like him)

[churchillball10]

Maritin short gave me nightmares everytime i watched this its still sketch i wanna kill him lol

[faytliengod004]

Absolutely terrible version of the movie. I hate Martin Short. At least he pulled off the Mad Hatter. Prolly bed than Johnny Depp will.

[djmaui]

I totally agree. Martin Short will play a better Mad Hatter than Johnny Dep will. I just think Tim Burton has overused Johnny Dep in so many movies. Martin short actually looks loony enough to be the Mad Hatter and he's perfect for the character. Johhny Dep, not so much.

[jaxblade07]

My Mom always hated this song so of course I sang it to her constantly lmfao

[Darkrangerofthedeep]

I love Alice in Wonderland :) It's so wonderfully creepy ♪

[KeyBladeMastaSweeney]

I pretty much like every alice movie I've seen. I think this and the syfy one are great and the Tim Burton one will probably be good too. (Johnny Depp <3)

[SarahaaDriscy]

INCREDIBLE. I abbsolutely love this part of the movie. :D.

[AmanderPander]

The great thing about Lewis Carroll is that his stories could be interpreted as different things or meanings. Some say that there was no meaning behind Alice in Wonderland, and there are others who say that Alice in Wonderland was written because in the Victorian Age, children were expected to be little adults, and Carroll disagreed.

It's up to your interpretation, and frankly, this is my favorite one. Boo Tim Burton :D

[LazyLimonada]

my nightmares...have been real all this time....

[Lawsuchan21]

Contrariwise, I myself can enjoy the books and their cinema-made counterparts.

I'm not telling anyone what to think, and I don't expect you to be offended; it's simply my opinion. Tim Burton's 'version' can be very enjoyable on its own and that's why I still look forward to it. Even knowing that it will not be at all like the books written by Dodgeson/Carroll.

Oh, and this has always (and probably will always) be my favorite film adaption of Alice. Martin Short just made the Hatter for me.

[Alt0233]

I agree that movies and books can be enjoyed separately, but I do believe that Tim Burton has become an uncreative and haggard piece of Hot Topic filth...If he actually produced something worthwhile recently I would look forward to the film. Following Corpse Bride, he just went downhill into a spiral of what I unimaginative drivel.

This is also my favorite adaptation of the books. :)

[Fuminori]

uncreative and haggard piece of hot topic?  Harsh. lol

I do agree with you here tho-I loooove this version.

[MisterDaskLives]

@Alt0233 After Corpse Bride? He's made only TWO MOVIES since Corpse Bride, one of which I'd call among his best work (Sweeney Todd). I haven't seen the second, since it came out less than two days ago. I don't think he's as fresh as he once was, and his work was may more consistent in the early 90's than it is now, but that doesn't make a lot of sense.

[GambitsGirl1]

I think he rocks!!!

[Maldor20]

@Alt0233 Uh yeah.....thats why your comment go bumped down two ratings Id think. You can believe what you want...But Tim Burton's Alice beat out Avatar's record as a weekend blockbuster. Dont know what that is? Then look it up...jackass.

[Alt0233]

Hey faggot, just because a bunch of retarded Hot Topic mall goths see a movie, doesn't mean it's good. Avatar was shit too. ;) I saw Alice in Wonderland, and the theatre was resoundingly disappointed. Tim Burton is a haggard and unoriginal sellout; anyone who likes this filth needs to shoot themselves.

[PapagenoJuan]

True :)))

[sambam8787]

sure it wasnt as good as everyone thought it was going to be. but i loved it, and i love tim burtons moviews. i went into that theatre without amazingly high expectations and i wasnt let down

[ManWithFreedom]

is the movie u made better ..oh wait....

[MushroomMai]

This is one of my favourite adaptions.

But nothing beats the books, no-one will ever interperate Alice in Wonderland as well as Lewis Carroll.

I'm also one of the few people who doesn't think Tim Burton's adaption looks good- it has nothing- NOTHING to do with the books... he just took Dodgson's characters and made some sort of "sequel" to the two books... one that I dont think Dodgson would acctually aprove of. Thats my personal opinion anyway.

[Lawsuchan21]

I agree with you for the most part. No one will ever interpret Alice in Wonderland like Lewis Carroll.

I also do agree that Tim Burton's film will simply take the characters Carroll created and putting them into a sequel that has almost nothing to do with the books at all. But really, who doesn't do that nowadays?

Why Disney itself has always done this in general. They take classic stories and make what they can of it. Other companies do the same thing as well.

[MushroomMai]

I know what your saying 100%, and I think most people will adore it, but I just think that so many people will believe that Burtons follows the real story, many people already think Disney invented Alice.

I think it is a shame people forget where the original stories come from:ex' brothers grimm. No-ones fault, I just think its a shame

Burton's isnt visualy my cup of tea anyway:I love the rest of his work, but theres something about this one that doesnt feel like wonderland to me personaly

[meliketalaugh]

LOL martian short's hilarious. And im pretty sure thats the girl from Napoleon Dynamite.

[6Balf9]

yes it is :D its the first thing i thought when i saw her in that

[skullfan135]

yes it is,

it's Deb

[Adler36]

with Kate Beckinsale; a tv movie from 1998. (You can find it also on youtube)

Also this version follow much much more the essence of the book than the Disney movie does. I can't wait too see the new, live-action Disney-version; a all-new story, a sequel from Tim Burton.

I've read the first draft of Linda Woolverton's sript, and even it's a completly new story, it's pretty good.

[Adler36]

I can't wait to see Burton's version.

[AlphaVex]

What does hey say after "and call it Fred..."?

[EndlessOceanGirl]

lol! I have always loved the whole Madhatter tea party scene when I was little. But now that I know that Madhatter is Martin Short I love it 100 times more!!! :D

[TaylorsChicks1224]

hahahaha

"How dare you interrupt my song with I Say I Say I say!"

xD

[Scruffy193]

The Mad Hatter... a literary character we can all aspire to.

[bubbyt3]

This is cool the mad hatter is martin short and his voice is SOOO not like this. I can change voice but not like that

[Fabio254]

Why is everything yellow? Why can't the person playing Alice act or look the part? Why is Martin Short so irritating? I hate this shit.

[MistressRebekah]

I've had this VHS since I was about 8. Love it.

[jessicajava000]

me too!

it's wonderful!

[buddyroach]

this is thr trippy version for stoners. where do u download this one without downloading any othe version?

[biglarry345]

im not gunna lie if i was stoned i would probably be a little freaked out watchin this hahaha

[buddyroach]

omg u aint shitting me. im drunk right now and my mind is totally fucked.. lol

[KaixStar]

lol

2:12-2:13 is funny

vroom

[TearWorkshop]

I love how the March Hare interrupts the Mad Hatter XD

This movie is a treasure.

[iwuvsweeney]

aunties wooden leeeeg aunties wooden leg. we'll paint it red and call it fred or ned or teeeed.

[MirukuAki]

Haha. I love this!

Now I have to watch the Dvd. :P

[cookiethepuss]

Now... imagine that being Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter.

AWESOMENESS!

[Clocksworthbunnie]

Out of all different movie versions I've seen of Alice, Martin Short has done the best Mad Hatter (acting and look-wise), so it'd be pretty hard for Depp to top his proformance..

[Aandunno]

that would be horrible actually..he barely did Wily Wonka right

[homgJulie]

OBAMAA.

[13Elphaba13]

I LOVE this movie and this song, but does anyone know why they did this song? I do love it, but it never was in the book.

[LarryBrown2]

They did it because they were smart. You may not be able to take a book and translate it word for word to the screen. It may need something more, or different. That this scene and song is the highlight of the movie illustrates that.

[sexydanny21awesome]

THIS MOVIE IS CLASSIC

[madz55]

i LOVE this movie

[xJenBunnyx]

really?

yeah that'd be awesome, thanks :D

[Thineface]

"Lovely isn't it? It could almost pass for singing!"

I love how they act so insane to Alice and make such rude comments. Lewis Carrol was a genuis of literature.

[13Elphaba13]

I know the Carroll's book is beyond amazing. I don't know WHY , though haha its a short simple story, not deep plot, and brief descriptions. i love it still.

[VanityElric2]

Auntie's Wooden♫ I say I say I say♪

Auntie's Wooden Leg, Auntie's wooden Le~~~~ *boom* lol

[mizfilm87]

BUT WE ARE A STILL A GOOD FRIEND!

[xJenBunnyx]

does anyone know where i could possibly find this movie?

like what stores and such :]

[xoPLKWox]

try amazon.... im trying to find it on dvd because i own it on vhs but i dont have a vcr =[

[4wonderland]

i have the twinkle song wrote down in my head i could sing it any time

[PapagenoJuan]

Twinkle, twinkle, little BAT...how I wonder where you are art...

It's simple, kill the bAtMan.

[AmberDangerous]

This has got to be the best movie scene of all time!! Nothing beats the Mad Hatter and March Hare!

[isaacd52]

tht chick is really beautiful

[buggigurl713]

How dare you insult my song with 'I say, I say, I say'!!"

[LarryBrown2]

That's *interrupt my song* not *insult my song.*

[buggigurl713]

Hah! I knew that! Just a little brain fart. Thanks for the correction, though!

[hahahollyh]

I still think the hare is effing CREEPY LOOKING.

[Colidape]

How Dare You Interupt My Song With "I Say I Say I Say"

LOL

[vvelvettearss]

"Anyway..if you'll pardon the expression.." LMAO

[monalisa02]

[awlover104eva]

GET YOUR HAIR CUT

[4wonderland]

i think this movie is better than disneys version but still disneys rocks.

[LarryBrown2]

I disagree. Disney's version is waaay better. This version tries 2 stick 2 the original script. But what works on the printed page may not work so well spoken on the screen and I think this movie suffers because of that. Disney exercised their masterful storytelling skills and made changes and cuts to the story resulting in a tighter movie with no dead zones. Disney's movie is delightful all through, this one is boring in lots of places. e.g., Tweedle Dee & the Oysters are better in Disney.

[Adler36]

Contrairwise. Disney's version has nothing, really nothing to do with the orginal books "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking Glass and What Alice found there".

Disney's version maybe delightful for you, but the only thing what this movie has to do with the original is just the title.

This version is'nt boring in any way, read the books! It's Carroll's humour, not Disney ones....

[TheLarryBrown]

Adler36: You're off base to say Disney is so far from the book. It features the same plot, the same characters, the same setting, the same incidents, much of the same dialog. This movie with Martin Short will never become a classic, as are the book and the Disney movie. Another example is the tree just before T party: "Which way will you go..." That scene may be in the book, but it doesn't work in the movie and is pointless. It doesn't figure in the plot, it doesn't introduce a character,

[TheLarryBrown]

it tells us nothing about Alice or anything at all. The song is not good, it's too simple, it's a lousy melody, and it's sung off key. Another example is the mushroom toking caterpillar. In this movie that scene is pretty lame, but in the Disney movie that scene is funny. Another example is the "Beautiful soup" with Gene Wilder, it's lame. Many scenes in this movie fall flat, but the Disney movie is 100% on target.

[Adler36]

If you think so. I also love the Disney movie very much, but as a "Lewis Carroll fan", I prefer this version, because it had just more of Lewis Carroll's kind of humour. (Even this version stole the ideas with the caterpillar turning into a butterfly and the sun and moon from the Disney Movie) I'm also a Disney Fan, and yes, it's funny, especially for kids, but as Walt Disney himself say: "Alice has no heart." Alice has no real soul in my mind...

I also prefer the Looking Glass Version

[Adler36]

The scene with the singing tree is not in the book, ha-ha...

The plot from the Disney Movie merged the two books, also like this movie do.

The director of this movie, Nick Willing make now a second Alice-movie, a tv miniseries, very like his "Tin Man", called "Alice". (with Kathy Bathes as Queen)

Well, I like the Disney Movie as well, but what I don't like is that this cartoon has no gravity. If you watch this one with Majorino, it has more from that, but that's only my opinion...

[Gamer55556]

I love this version the best. Martin Short plays the best Mad Hatter I've ever seen. The part were he performs Twinkle Twinkle at the court scene is my favorite part. I think the cast of character portrayl was more true to the book.

[Jonnan]

this is a good real life version of alice. it still holds the surreal characteristics that the movie had. very good. 5 stars!

[Stargazerkitten]

Pause at 1:42 LMAO love this movie <333

[JaliceJally]

LOL, I love this so much. It's so random.

[KaixStar]

i like this version because it has a few well known actors, including Robbie Coltran

[Storicco]

I wish I lived in Wonderland. =)

[SmuffAndMM]

oh so do i!!!!!

[xXxMercedesPagexXx]

do you know where to get this on dvd!?

if anyone does, pleas tell me!!

[hwaprincess]

Martin Short plays a great Mad Hatter!

[xXxMercedesPagexXx]

i agree!!!

[PapagenoJuan]

Enough for a Batman villian?

[elwoodbluesfan]

If anybody has OnDemand they have this movie on it under Free Movies. It ends in March.

[dreamer20k]

"How dare you interupt my song with 'I say, I say, I say!'" I love Martin Short

[bunnybuf3291]

how did they make his head so big!?

[Fantome52]

Digitally in post-production. I like it; it's a nice nod to original 'Alice' illustrator John Tenniel.

[Fantome52]

This was a response to the question of how Short's head was enlarged; sorry.

[ParnoidAndriod]

i love this

[piratelover123]

the march hare scares me.....

[LikaLaruku]

Looks more like the March Jackass than a Hare XD. Love Alice's "couldn't care less" look when he falls off the table. Long way down.

[LarryBrown2]

LOL about the March Donkey-you're right.

Alice underacted it.

[atombombangel]

Does anyone have the start of the Tea Party cos that one of my fav parts, only cosa my friends say im like the hatter when im drunk lol

[shinyhappyhairhead]

martin short is HILARIOUS in this movie!!!

[caninosbrancos]

Hahaha! Great , Hatter!

[chasetrussel]

Ha! Ha! Oh I love Martin Short as the mad hatter! They couldn't have cast a better person! Thnk you so much for uploading this!

[StageTrickster]

Martin was the best part of the whole movie

[alexebling]

MAd Hatter is AWESOME!! =)

Please add more clips from the movie!

[Christinasvenska]

This is the best part of the whole movie! Martin Short is HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!

[Guernicaman]

Why does the March Hare have human hands? It looks as if they couldn't finish his costume on time.

[LarryBrown2]

I like that, it lends some needed expression to his otherwise stuffed animal performance. Many muppets use this technique, like Beaker for example.
