As cartoons go, yes.

I know I'm probably in the minority but I like Burton's Alice.

Pretty sure I've seen close to all of them. I went thru a phase lol

My top 10 in order:

1) 1999 version starring Gene Wilder, Ben Kingsley, Peter Ustinov - this one is the most fun & entertaining, Gene Wilder knocks it outta the park.

2) 1966 version directed by Jonathan Miller starring John Gielgud, Peter Sellers, music by Ravi Shankar - this is the trippiest and most artistic. Very Felliniesque, which might annoy most people

3) 2009 scifi version "Alice" with Kathy Bates, Harry Dean Stanton - this is by far the most creative adaptation I've seen.

4) 1951 Disney animated version - animation is incredible, great music, pretty faithful adaptation.

5) 1988 "Alice" by Jan Svankmajer - another one for the art house crowd but with a lot of cheeky humor so everyone can enjoy it. As with all Svankmajer films, it features bizarre stop motion animation & puppets. Pretty disturbing but really fun

6) 1933 version with W.C. Fields, Gary Cooper & Cary Grant - a must-see for fans of the classic b&w era. Kino recently restored it & it looks great

7) 2010 version by Tim Burton with his regular troupe of actors - nuff said. I liked it.

8) 1995 "Miyuki-chan in Wonderland" Japanese anime version - just... really weird. If you're into that sort of thing

9) 1903 silent version (1st version ever made) - I don't remember much about it, film quality is lousy so I couldn't give it a fair shake. Really needs to be remastered.

10) 1949 version starring Carol Marsh - live action with cool stop motion animation stuff

Bonus:

11) 1985 Tom Petty video "Don't Come Around Here No More" - seriously, this is epic
