* In the 1951 version, you can hear an instrumental of the song "Row Row Row Your Boat" as the dodo and are caucus is sailing by. This could be {{Foreshadowing}} the film's ending, since the song includes the line "[[AllJustADream Life is but a dream!]]"

* In the 1951 Disney version, it takes a while to figure it out, but during the scene where the Queen of Heart's soldiers make their grand entrance, there's a StealthPun to it: the entire sequence is basically one glorified card shuffle. The scene is ''dealing out the cards''.

*** The sequel proves that it ''is'' The White Queen's fault. But it wasn't her potions that ruined her sister, rather it's the White Queen's fault that the Red Queen tripped and her head swelled, and it never went back to normal.

* Tim Burton's ''Film/AliceInWonderland''. Tim Burton can cause Fridge Horror by simply '''adding a cameo'''. To be more specific, the Gryphon makes a cameo as a mural fighting the Jabberwock[[IAmNotShazam (y)]]. In the book, the Gryphon tells Alice that the [[CompositeCharacter (Red)]] Queen of Hearts '''never carries out executions'''. He isn't in the movie. So either A) the Jabberwock killed him, or B) the Queen had him executed. Either way, a FunnyAnimal who may be one the only characters in the novel nice to Alice DIES.
