The Bandersnatch in Tim Burton’s 2010 “Alice in Wonderland” film
This episode introduces two guest characters who are crossing over from the mothership OUAT show. The first character is someone who didn’t appear on OUAT until recently, in the Season 3 premiere. The other character is someone who we met way back, early on in Season 1 — though we’ll only be hearing her voice this time.
The episode also introduces the Bandersnatch, a creature who was first mentioned, in passing, in Jabberwocky, which is from Lewis Carroll’s second Alice book, Through the Looking Glass:
‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”
