I think the new Alice movie is actually a sequel to the books. I could be wrong but apparently it is set afterward.
According to Wikipedia and IMDB, the 2010 film will apparently be based on but deviate slightly from the plot of
Alice in Wonderland and
Through the Looking Glass. Gathering from the fact that it'll be set ten years after the books, it's as though the titular character will be re-living her past adventures, only with digitally-manipulated individuals serving as replacements for her once-loveable acquaintances.
