Tim Burton's Alice was horrible. Turning the very weird & insane & deeply philosophical story of Alice into a quite standard Good reign vs Evil reign fantasy was high treason against Carroll.
Also I don't get why they always choose to come back to the boring "normal world" in those sort of stories. Well in this case I guess its because the fantasy world was fucking dull.
For a modern Alice I like quite much better my Terry Gilliam's Tideland.
