Tim Burton's world has no logic

I can't sit still after seeing so many comments criticizing Alice's film and even attacking director Tim Burton.
Don't compare his films to Avatar, because there is no comparison.
Don't attack the cause and effect in the movie, because there is no logic in Tim Burton's world.
This is a fairy tale. It doesn't need twists and turns, details that don't need to be carefully scrutinized, no need to respond to each other, and no need for sensationalism. If you think it's messy and ridiculous, please go away, because to enjoy this movie, you need to A child's heart, a child's vision.
This is a dream. Do dreams need logic? Need to explain every scene and character that comes up? Need an answer to why crows are like writing desks? Caterpillars can be blue, queens can be big heads, monsters can be hacked to death with a single sword, why not, why not, if it's not bizarre, not weird, is it a dream? Sympathy for you if your dreams are very logical and plausible, because you can't even dream away from reality, which is really a sad thing.
There is a saying in Hollywood that anyone who likes Tim Burton movies is autistic.
If you like to dream, like to fantasize, and like to be immersed in your own little universe, this is autism, then so do I. Rather than become a numb walking corpse in reality, I would rather live in that strange and vivid wonderland.
