Just saw the movie, and I wouldn't consider it a let down Veach. :lol
True I expected a little bit more, but as far as the Mad Hatter goes, I loved it.
What did he throw at the Ace of Knaves at the end though? It looked gold but I couldn't tell.
Something I STRONGLY feel the need to say...see it twice.
The first time I LOVED it
but did feel a smidge disappointed. The second time I was just swooning and completely down the rabbit hole in love. I think the reason for this is that the story is so choppy and fast moving that it's all a blur of randomness the first time you see it, the second, you know what's going on and you understand it more so you can just sit back and enjoy. At least, that's how I felt tonight. And it was WONDERFUL! AND IT GOT AN APPLAUSE AT THE END! And my heart was happy. This movie is already INCREDIBLY dear to me.
A mini report on our night...it was AMAZING. Travis looked phenomenal again, of course ( at least everyone said so lol ). We put some more makeup on, had the thimbles and all the hat pins ( but of COURSE....by the end of the night we had LOST the flower one. :cry I guess it's a sign that it needed to be remade anyways...I loved that little bebe though!
) The workers were SO excited when they saw us, of course, the girl that I mentioned before who recognized him as Jack when he was Sweeney tonight recognized him as Sweeney when he was Hatter. LOL She was
floored and called him her hero and asked to shake his hand! A bunch of little kids kept peering around the corner, running away, coming back and saying " Is it really him? It's really him, OMG! It's really him!! " and asked for pictures and autographs...alas they nor we had pens... LOL TONS of teenagers wanting pictures too, guys and girls which was cool. We're going to be splattered around Facebook in a matter of hours, I'm sure. AND the Manager came over and said " I hear your letting people take pictures. ", Travis replied " Ah...yes...but...only if they ask..." thinking we were going to get in trouble but he whipped out 4 free movie passes and gave them to us!!
Said we were great and did a great job on the costumes. Woo hoo!
Unfortunately, plans for an outdoor photoshoot didn't go over as planned since, again, we were running late and by the time we got out of the house the sun was setting, which was all fine and grand for photos except the temperature dropped about 10 degrees...Canada. >_< There's a giant floral clock in the Falls but it was entirely covered in snow...as were all of the gardens ( obviously ) and we didn't have time to visit the Bird Kingdom ( which is basically an indoor rainforest ) or the Butterfly Conservatory.
So real outdoor photos will have to wait until springtime. BOOOOOO!! But we got a lot of shots from the theatre so I'll post some of those.
Anyways...um...( as in...not sure what I was saying here, not 'Undead Monkey' :lol ) YEAH. Movie is amazing. Loved it more the second time. Costumes were EXTREMELY well received. Loved it. Couldn't be happier and more appreciative than I am right now.
Hope everyone has just as wonderful experiences when they wear theirs!
