** [[spoiler: The line "in the gardens of memory, in the palace of dreams, that's where you and I will meet"]] being spoken to Alice becomes this in the Latin Spanish dub, since dub actress Hiromi Hayakawa (who played Alice) passed away less than a year after the movie's release due to complications during her pregnancy.

Yeah, time has not been any more kind to this film than it already hasn't.


* ContestedSequel: Is it a SurprisinglyImprovedSequel to the first, average, or weaker than the original? Critics are currently split on opinions.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
Not YMMV


* ScrapbookStory / StoryBreadcrumbs: Alongside the film's release has, along with its supplementary material (visual guides, a gamebook, etc.), a whole plethora of extra lore (albeit very scattered and not completely compiled) hidden along the work the staff did for the movie, e.g. Time's documents by Karen Teneyck, the art director of the movie - this has prompted some fans to flesh out the world of Underland by going down a rabbit hole of all the media related to the franchise to piece it together, making the entirety of Underland this for those fans. This also includes the original script of the 2010 film, and possibly the games that released alongside it.

** On the other hand, it shows how protective Alice's mother is of her daughter, and how she's willing to bend the rules to protect her, especially since the film has portrayed her in a mostly negative light prior to this scene.

* OvershadowedByControversy: Originally, it was recognized as Creator/AlanRickman's last film before his death. But then, the allegations that Creator/JohnnyDepp was abusive towards Creator/AmberHeard certainly didn't do the film any PR favors, at least not until after the recordings of Amber admitting to physically and emotionally abusing Johnny were released.

This is no longer a harsher in hindsight moment, as it has come out that Johnny was the victim, not the abuser, and that Amber lied to get the restraining order.


** The movie's decision to present the Mad Hatter as [[spoiler:a dedicated family man who will fight to find and be reunited with them]] is this, since Depp's wife Creator/AmberHeard [[http://www.vulture.com/2016/05/amber-heard-files-restraining-order-against-depp.html accused him of domestic abuse and filed for a restraining order]] on the day the movie came out.

While this is a noble action, she shows NoSympathy when Time reveals to her that he's ''dying'' because the time machine isn't in it's place, sticking to her mission [[SkewedPriorities instead of doing the right thing and giving it back]].

Added DiffLines:

*RootingForTheEmpire: Time, due to his {{Adorkable}} and HeroAntagonist traits as well as the quality of Sacha Baron Cohen's performance make it easier to root for him than Alice. She is putting Underland in danger to save one person while he is trying retrieve something she stole, thus making this an inversion of sorts (again, HeroAntagonist).
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
That doesn't make her a designated hero. It makes her an anti-villain protagonist. The fact that she realizes her mistake is proof enough that this trope is not present.


* DesignatedHero: Many critics have this problem with Alice in this film, since she steals the Chronosphere even after Time warned her against doing it and keeps making things worse, all for the sake of her 'truest friend'. To her credit, she does finally realize all the [[HeelRealization damage she had caused]] and finally apologized to Time at the end.

It's not a YMMV trope


* ShoutOut: The climax of the movie bears a striking resemblence of an episode of ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987'', where [[DuckTalesTheGoldenGoose Scrooge races to return a macguffin to it's pedastal]] as the world behind him and everyone in it is turned into solid metal right behind him, and almost fails as he is changed just shy of the pedastal. Just replace the Chronosphere with a goose, and rust with gold
