Alice returns to the wonderland for a new adventure.

What's left to do but follow a bug through a mirror above the fireplace back into a realm where she quickly discovers that the "Mad Hatter" (Johnny Depp) is in a bad way. He's missing his family who have long since died, and so she decides to get hold of a time-travel enabling "Chronosphere" and go back in time to retro-fix this disaster. Of cour... read the rest.
"The only way to achieve the impossible, is to believe that it is possible."
Yeah, that's not how words work. Impossible is by definition unachievable, it's actually a synonym for that word.
I guess what the regarded little girl who has the troubles done did doing them Englishings meant was, "The only way to achieve what you think is impossible, is to believe that possible things are impossible, and then believe that if you believe that you can achieve impossible things by believing in it, you can. But make sure you pick actually possible things, or you might just get yourself killed. At... read the rest.
