1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Alice in Wonderland (1951)?
a.		This is the only Disney feature-length cartoon film to have its first theatrical re-release after it had already been shown on television (although the film had been televised only in an edited, one-hour version).

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Alice in Wonderland (1951)?
a.		The English novelist Aldous Huxley worked with Walt Disney on early scripts for this project in late 1945. The original idea was for a cartoon version of Alice embedded in a flesh-and-blood episode from Lewis Carrolls life. Huxleys mother, Julia Arnold, was one of the little girls that Carroll used to enjoy photographing, and to whom he told the Alice stories. The project was close to Huxleys heart, but Disney found his work too intellectual, and it was not used. Huxley received no credit on the finished picture.
b.		Director George Huang was convinced to make this film by Robert Rodriguez. Huang used to work for Columbia Pictures, which acquired the distribution rights for Rodriguez film El mariachi in 1991. The two met and Huang shared some of his would-be movie stories with Rodriguez, who - as documented in his memoir, "Rebel Without a Crew" - told Huang that he should simply "go out and make a movie." As such, Huang resigned from his position and set out to make this film.
c.		Despite receiving generally unfavorable reviews upon its initial release, the film is today regarded as one of the best horror movies ever made. In 2001, it was ranked 29th on AFIs 100 Years...100 Thrills list. In 2003, Jack Torrance was named the 25th greatest villain on the AFIs 100 Years...100 Heroes and Villains list. The film was named the scariest film of all time by Channel 4 in 2003, and Total Film had it as the 5th greatest horror film in 2004. Bravo TV placed it 6th on their list of the 100 Scariest Movie Moments in 2005. In addition, film critics Kim Newman and Jonathan Romney both placed it in their all-time top ten lists for the 2002 Sight and Sound poll.
d.		The doctor hands extracting the capsule from Agent Farris head at the IMF headquarters belong to director J.J. Abrams.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Alice in Wonderland (1951)?
a.		Lewis Carroll wrote the riddle "Why is a raven like a writing desk?" as nonsense - it has no answer. This has not stopped people, despite being repeatedly told that there is not, nor should there be, any answer, from trying to contrive one. Among the suggestions are, "because Edgar Allan Poe wrote on both" and "because the notes for which they are noted are not noted for being musical notes" (the second of which is very similar to a solution that Carroll himself wearily suggested when he grew tired of people asking him about it).
b.		The original play opened in New York on 14 October 1914.

Warner Brothers loved the film when it was screened, and immediately opened it at the 2005 Cannes International Film Festival in a high profile capacity.

d.		This was the first feature film for which Walt Disney was able to use television for cross-promotion.
