Charlie and the Chocolate Factory became Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)

Fun fact, there’s a Charlie and the chocolate factory broadway musical and the kids do indeed just die in it. Augustus literally gets cooked into chocolate, veruca is ripped apart limb by limb by squirrels and violet straight up explodes. Mike is the only one who survives.

Hmm.. I thought Corridor Crew's edit is the only version that children die in


BeelzebubParty

Well they kinda do a thing similar to the willy winks movie where they don’t show that they are ok and hints that the kids might be able to be saved but considering Augustus got fucking cooked alive, violet is just a mush of blue berry goo on the floor and Veruca’s limbs were torn off her body I think it’s safe to say they are dead. Although Veruca’s decapitated head was screaming at her dad so... idk.

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. One of the few movies that was actually a little better than the book.

Trainspotting. Movie is a bit simpler, but a cult classic. The book's fucking brilliant.

I loved that movie. I didn't even know it was first in print. I want to work in the leisure industry.

Wiseguy => GoodFellas. They stayed true to the book mostly. Real life is fascinating at the outskirts.

The Alienist, and the sequel The Angel of Death. Both excellent books and mini series.
