    Alice in Wonderland

    Does anyone know what tartan Johnny Depp was wearing as the Mad Hatter? As soon as I saw the movie I was intrigued!

    He's wearing Fraser Hunting.

    I saw the film in the theatres and it was impossible for me to make out the tartan. Later, on the internet, I searched for stills from the movie and they were still much too dark to make out the tartan.

    However, I recently came across photographs taken of the costume Depp wore where the lighting was much better and it is clearly Hunting Fraser.

    While I am glad that Mr. Depp was kilted in the movie, It still sucked. Even in 3D.

    Wow...the still photos make the kilt look so much more restrained! When I saw it in the theater it looked almost blaze orange...which would, of course, explain why i couldn't figure it out!ith:

    I can't weigh in on the quality of the movie. I've rented it twice and still haven't had a chance to actually watch it. I think I'll try again tomorrow night. Maybe this time I'll get to see it.

    Being a Tim Burton movie I'm sure it's at least visually appealing and the characters would have to be interesting. The guy could take a home movie of me grilling a burger and turn it into a masterpiece.
