During the Tea Party, just after the Mad Hatter destroys the White Rabbit's pocket watch and hands it back to him. A surprised look comes over the Mad Hatter's face and he shouts, "It WAS??" A second later the White Rabbit is shown looking down at his watch in dismay. He sadly says, "Oh my watch. And it was an Un-Birthday present, too." Clearly the scene is mixed up.
Uh no. Who says that the practice of celebrating un-birthdays is specifically something the Mad Hatter and March Hare made up. How do you know that the holiday isn't celebrated all over wonderland. Besides, the Hatters reply of "It Was!" was referring to the fact that the white rabbit said it was his watch. The joke being, he got it out of his pocket, so it was obviously his watch.
Uh - no. I don't think she said anything about the Mad Hatter and March Hare being the only ones who can celebrate an un-birthday. She pointed out an editing error. The rabbit is supposed to say, "It was an un-birthday present too," and then the Mad Hatter says "It was?" then they start singing the un-birthday song and Alice takes off. Check out the movie and you'll see.
I don't really agree with this slip-up. The reason that the Mad Hater said, "It was?!?", is because right before that, the the rabbit said,"Oh my watch!" The Mad Hater was referring that is was the rabbits watch. I know this because I have seen that movie at least 30 times. -Kari :*
Everyone does celebrate un-birthdays in wonderland, because towards the end they state that its the queens un birthday. therefore it is a known deal in wonderland. also he was refering to his pocket watch. no slip up
This "error" is totally correct because the all thing is just plainly nonsense. Even in the book (at least original copies) the Mad Hatter asks a riddle; When is a Raven like a writing desk. In the book the author spells never like nevar. Which is Raven backwards. It was his own personal joke. There are many more slips like this in the books such as the trail of the knave of hearts. The whole point of the books was total nonsense. Though much was linked with the real problems going on during the author’s life....movies and books can be alike in some ways...
