Cleaning the Plot

[edit]

I have done my best to respect User Dieschwarzetur's work in cleaning up the plot. I still am not sure what the assesment may be as it is now. I hope no feelings are hurt. Hoverfish 18:43, 7 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

After having done a second round of improvements, I am of the opinion that the plot flows nicely, given in a sweet style but comprehensively so. One can take a fairly good idea of the film's plot. The article may be missing some other sections, but this is another matter. Therefore I remove the cleanup template. If a future reassessment finds need of further cleanup, it may be put back.

Fair use rationale for Image:Alice in wondrl.jpg

[edit]

Image:Alice in wondrl.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Criticism

[edit]

One critic, panning the 1998 version, complained that adaptations try to add plot to what is basically an episodic collection of bedtime story chapters. This version, however, adds the them that Alice is trying to find her way home. She's stuck behind the mirror by her own fears (of growing up). She tells the red queen she can't "play" because she must be going home, but she's told to become a queen first ("and then you may go home"). This parallels the plot in Wizard of Oz where Dorothy must "kill the witch" before she can go home.

Now, how do I add this to the article? --Uncle Ed (talk) 18:23, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
