Guy Somberg of Flagship Studios has posted his dev blog, dated 21 June covering the subject of Alice in Wonderland, the new Sarah Michelle Gellar (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001264/) movie based on American McGee's Alice (http://www.mobygames.com/game/american-mcgees-alice) which is due for release sometime next year, unless I'm mistaken.
Here's a snippet from the blog:
Alice was incredible at the time, as it was really the first game (to my recollection, anyway) that showed the world that the Quake 3 engine could do more than 1,000 shades of brown. It had gorgeous environments, disturbing imagery, and some superb voice acting. (In fairness, it also had some mediocre voice acting, but the main characters were good, anyway.)I was therefore quite excited when, not long after the game's release, news posts started cropping up about Wes Craven being hired to direct and even the possibility of Milla Jovovich as Alice. Toward the end of 2001, however, the news dried up, and I gave up hope.But now hope is restored! Sort of.
