Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz.
Two stories about girls (in blue dresses) who accidentally get transported to some magical (drug-induced) world and spend the rest of the story wandering about, trying to get home.
Two stories that everyone else seems to love and obsess over. Two stories that I can't stand.
Just thought I'd get that out there.
Does Alice have a blue dress in the book or just in the Disney version?
ReplyDeleteIt's been too long since I read the book for me to remember.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you. they're kind of boring.
ReplyDeleteWhat don't you like about them?
ReplyDeleteI find the stories to be incredibly boring. The main characters are flat caricatures and the plot is nearly nonexistent. There's hardly a scrap of volition to be found. All this is aggressed by the adoration heaped upon the stories by the massive public. You say "Why don't you like them," and I say "What is there to like?"
ReplyDeletei want a new post. *chants* NEW POST, NEW POST!
