Tim Burton actually does a good job of making interesting, diverse and complex females. I just wish that they were more often main characters rather than love interests. Look how well Alice and Lydia did!

That's Ed wood in the background.
IMPORTANT EDIT: Ok guys, I know I left out a ton of characters - these are only the one or two main female characters from almost all Tim Burton's movies. To be honest they're really just my favourites of the burton girls, and I'm aware that I forgot Joanna and Lucy and the Red and White Queens, Veruca Salt, Violet Beauregarde, Mrs. Bucket, and that chick from Planet of the Apes among many, many others. Trust me, I have seen ALL of tim burton's movies and am aware of the female characters in all of them. Maybe I'll do a part two with literally everyone... but in the mean time please no more comments pointing out that I "forgot" someone as I will never be editing this piece.
i love sally and emily
