Worry

I know there is no such thing as originality, especially in my case since I'm adapting a famous story, and there are only so many titles one can call it and still reference the original. Granted, this one seems to be more of a sequel, versus mine uses the book as a jumping point. Not to mention, this version uses anthropomorphic characters, while in mine there are only humans (and figments, I suppose).

I want to see this, and I wish them success, but I worry people will accuse me of ripping them off, or titling my piece in a manner meant to leech of their potential popularity.

I wonder though, why do so many interpretations of the Cheshire Cat seem wrong to me? Disney's annoys me, Dark Wonderland's downright pisses me off, I like American McGee's, John Tenniel's is ok, Hallmark's is ok, and I only like Barry Moser's smile without a cat drawing.

I guess that's why I choose to forget about using anthros and instead only use humans.
