Walter ... walrus ... whoa.

So you've seen "The Big Lebowski" dozens of times. You loved "Alice in Wonderland" when you were a kid -- and you loved it even more when you grew up and understood all the drug-related undertones. But what if we told you that these two films ... COULD BE THE SAME FILM?

The good people at Cracked have tied together this theory in neat little package for your eyes and ears to consume. Does it blow your mind to think that Alice might have been the original Dude?

Does this theory stand, man?
