* [[Adaptational Attractiveness]]: In the books, the White Queen did not change much in appearance when she turned into a sheep. Here, she's played by [[Anne Hathaway]]. [[Helena Bonham Carter]]'s Red Queen, like other adaptations, is a [[Composite Character]] of the Red Queen and Queen of Hearts, who is a [[Gonk]], so she probably counts as well.

** Actually, there may be some sort of explanation: Near the beginning of the movie, when Alice dances with her would-be fiance she tells him that she had a vision of women wearing pants and men wearing dresses (or something to that effect). Since she is efffectively wearing pants in the final battle, the Hatter wearing a kilt might sort of fulfill the other part of her vision.

* [[Parental Favoritism]]: As noted below under [[The Unfavorite]], this is the Red Queen's [[Freudian Excuse]]; her parents (and, apparently, the rest of the whole kingdom) always favored her little sister. Notably averted with Alice's family, since she and her sister are very close and both love their parents very much.

Hathaway's own description of her character is "a punk-rock [[Granola Girl|vegan pacifist]]." One movie critic summed her up as "[[The Addams Family (TV)|Morticia Addams's]] hippie cousin."

** So it is written, so WILL it be done. It was prophesied that Alice {{spoiler|would slay the Jabberwocky}} before Alice was even given a proper understanding of what was going on when she reached Underland. She did ''try'' to [[Screw Destiny]] for a while, and even showed, eventually, that this was less [[Genre Blindness]] and more backbone ([[Off the Rails]], as it were). But even ''that'' turned out to be part of the big prediction. Reminds one a little of [[The Lord of the Rings (Literature)|Tolkien]], with his God character saying stuff like "You thought you were singing against me, but that was part of my musical masterpiece all along."

*** Not quite - Despite the prophecy, Alice had the choice to say no at the end, same as the acceptance of marriage was ultimately her choice as well. For an admittedly rather short while before the big battle, it looked like she did/would go the [[Screw Destiny]] route. The point was that destinies are inevitable, but one can choose which destiny shall they follow.
