Fiction Adaptation: Essay idea

My idea for the essay is to write and compare Alice in Wonderland, the book and the newest film directed by Tim Burton.
As I have already seen the movie I was thinking because Alice in wonderland by Tim Burton is such a weird and different version compared to he rest it might also be a lot different to the book so I would be able to write lots, even though it has similar characters to the other film version it has a different storyline to it.
The only thing is I would have to read the book quickly, but its not a dry big book so shouldn't take to long even though I am a slow reader.
I feel the character, mad hatter, played by Johnny Deep is mad just for him in this movie as it would be hard to cast someone else in a role like this as Johnny Depp is known for his weird and wonderful roles and because he is Tim Burton's best friend he is first choice in all his movies.
Things i feel could be different is the real world part at the beginning and end as you get to see what her life is like and how people say she is weird, also the poem jabberwocky is spoken to alice by Johnny Depp's character speaking about the queen of hearts (played by Helena Bohnam Carter, Tim Burton's wife) two animals that she has for killing people, the bandersnatch which helps Alice later in the film and the jabberwocky which is the weapon to destroy the good queen(Anne Hathaway).
