Iiiii will talk iiin thiiii threeed as the Catterrpiller. Whooo of theeese interesting tea drinking friends do you like the most. I listend to this amazing story on audio book recently and felt the March Hare is a tad overshadowed by the Hatter, whom both share almost equal "screen time" in the book, perhaps the Hatter is more video friendly as hes human and is portraid by Johnny Depp. But from the Disney 1952 version (the best filmattic version i must say) they are equaly great/ fascinating (perhaps The Mad Hatter have a few more lines). But i feel te March Hare deservs a much more in depth research post- their release date. As in "the Junglebook" when most people seems to gravitate towards Baloo, i am more of a Bagheera fanboy, after rewatching the Disney classic (1968), Bagheera is the GOAT, when it comes to be the Jimmeny Cricet-like good-consciousness trope. I really like most of the character gallery presented in Alice in Wonderland but feels that the March Hare is underrated and underused in resent representations. He needs and deserves to be flashed out more and equaly to the Mad Hatter. Even though Cheshire Cat is my favourite character and Alice is a good nr 2. The March Hare leevs me quite intrigued. -------------

"The expression 'mad as a hatter' is linked to the hat-making industry and mercury poisoning. In the 18th and 19th centuries, industrial workers used a toxic substance, mercury nitrate, as part of the process of turning the fur of small animals, such as rabbits, into felt for hats. Workplace safety standards often were lax and prolonged exposure to mercury caused employees to develop a variety of physical and mental ailments, including tremors (dubbed “hatter’s shakes”), speech problems, emotional instability and hallucinations." ------------- ...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

I learned while making this thread that "Being mad as a March hare" also is a common english expression/idiom. And that the phrase is older then "being mad ass a hatte" I also enjoy the two mice characters that appears in the book. -------------
