(no subject)

I just got back from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It's good, definately not what you might expect, and even a little creepy. There are lots of little in-jokes for those who pay attention. It was still missing a scene or two that I would have really liked to see (perhaps they'll be on the DVD?). The Oompa Loompa songs are very close to the poems in the original book, though some of them have obviously been edited down (if you remember the book, the moralistic poems were extremely long).

That's as much as I have time for, without giving out any spoilers. Now I'm off to Virginia, to see my mother get (re)married.
