What‘s the difference between OP and my kitchen knife?

The edge on the knife has a purpose.

They're all completely misinterpreted because the movies didn't do the original stories justice.

Have you read the ORIGINAL original Charlie & The Chocolate Factory?

Yep! The Oompa Loompas were little hippie-like men!

OriginalEmpress t1_j6l9y3n wrote

I think that was the first edit, because the original printing I have, they aren't hippies.

Oh... I know what you're referring to.

Honestly, everything is better with the r*cism removed.

I disagree. Blazing Saddles. It only works because of the blatant racism (which is all a joke because racism is stupid)

OriginalEmpress t1_j6n3x07 wrote

Agreed! I grew up reading the original printing, so the movie confused me as a kid. I didn't realize until I researched it as an adult that they'd changed them twice, once into the hippies for the book, then into the orange guys for the movie.

There are so many differences from the book to the movie that Roald Dahl openly hated the latter.

I know, and I hate that because Gene Wilder is such an incredible actor, I've always wondered if Roald hating the movie made him sad at all.

One thing I know for sure is that Gene hated the (far more accurate) 2005 version. Which is a second adaptation of the book and not a "remake" as some people like to call it.

OriginalEmpress t1_j6p6p09 wrote

I'm with him there, the second adaptation was closer to the book, but when it strayed, it strayed in WEIRD ways.

I call that one the Daddy Issues version.
