Despite the fact that there have been many other Alice in Wonderland films, Tim 伯顿 has 说 he never felt a emotional connection to it and always thought it was a series of some girl wondering around from one crazy character to another. (In fact, the original 图书 are part of a once-popular 幻想 genre in which the character does nothing except wander around from one crazy encounter to another. Those films which replicated this were being true to the spirit of the original books.) So with this, he attempted to create a framework, an emotional grounding, which he felt he never really had seen in any version before. Tim 说 that was the challenge for him - to make Alice feel like a story as opposed to a series of events.
Tim 伯顿 and Johnny Depp worked hard to give the Mad Hatter 更多 depth and presence than in past portrayals. In fact, the pair swapped sketches and themes for the character prior to creating this new version.

"There's this very beautiful cooking 显示 host in England named Nigella Lawson and I quietly had her as my image for this character," 伯顿 said. "She's really beautiful and she does all this cooking, but then there's this glint in her eye and when 你 see it 你 go, 'Oh, whoa, she's like really ... nuts.' I mean in a good way. Well, maybe. I don't know."
Helena Bonham Carter stated on a February 17, 2010 "The Late Late 显示 with Craig Ferguson" (2005) 显示 that two weeks before its premiere, Tim 伯顿 was still working on the movie.
Before Tim 伯顿 was involved with the project, Anne Hathaway was offered the titular role of Alice, but she turned it down because it was too similar to other roles she had previously played. However, she was keen to work with Burton, so was pleased to be cast as the White Witch. She shot all her scenes in two weeks.
The first Tim 伯顿 film not to have opening credits.
The name of Alice's father in the movie, Charles, is an homage to the 作者 of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking Glass", Lewis Carroll also known as Charles Dodgson.
Michael Sheen was originally cast as the Cheshire Cat, but backed out due to scheduling conflicts.
Dwayne Johnson and David Walliams were considered for the role of The Mad Hatter.
In the scene where the Hatter is making hats, there are two pictures 下一个 to the door where the Knave of Hearts enters. One picture is the Mock 龟, 海龟 from "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and the other is the Walrus from "Through the Looking-Glass".
The Mad Hatter asks Alice several times, "Why is a raven like a 写作 desk?" This is directly from the Lewis Carroll books. Carroll admits that there never was an answer to the question, he made it up without an answer. Some people have claimed the answer is because Edgar Allan Poe worked on both.
The battle scene at the end resembles a chess scene from afar to pay tribute to the chess game that Alice is playing all throughout the original text, "Through the Looking Glass".

One of Alice's ships at the end is named the "Wonder." This being a 迪士尼 film, it is a reference to 迪士尼 Cruise Line's "Wonder" ship.

In the opening 分钟 of the film, there is a shot of the moon, on which the Cheshire Cat's face is briefly visible.
Aside from his odd color, Absolem the 毛虫, 毛毛虫 is modeled after the larva of the Monarch 蝴蝶 (which are striped in white, yellow and black). When we see Absolem as a 蝴蝶 由 the end of the film, the pattern on his wings is that of a Monarch, save again for the coloration (Monarch 蝴蝶 have 橙子, 橙色 wings).
At one point when the Dormouse is searching for the Hatter in the Red Queen's castle, she looks in a vacant room. A caricature of Henry VIII can be seen on the far wall.
The Red 皇后乐队 asks Stayne at one point whether it is better to be feared than loved, if not of both, he affirms, as she does later, that it is better to be feared than loved. This is a reference to a famous quote from Niccolo Machiavelli's The Prince, where he asks the same question, and answers: "It may be answered that one should wish to be both, but, because it is difficult to unite them in one person, it is much safer to be feared than loved."
Although Helena Bonham Carter's character is named the Red Queen, and has a rivalry with the White 皇后乐队 as does the Red 皇后乐队 from Through the Looking Glass, the character is in fact in all other ways based on the 皇后乐队 of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland, incorporating her anger management issues, decapitation mania, and fondness for flamingo-and-hedgehog croquet. This is why while the White Queen's army is chess-themed, the Red Queen's army is playing-card themed.
Alice surname is 给 as Kingsley, which means her father is Charles Kingsley. This is a reference to the novelist of the same name, whose 查看 on Christian Socialism 'Lewis Caroll' had read and admired.
