Mike: In here is every clock radio I’ve ever owned. Calculators, VHS tapes. Yeah. Oh. Sporting equipment.

Violet: You have sporting equipment?

Mike: Well, oh, it’s just a, it’s a, a golf ball that my cousin threw at my head. You can still feel the dent. It’s right next to the hockey puck dent.

Violet: Okay, why do you have a bin of pine cones?

Mike: I used to collect them as a child. The spiral of scales open in the Fibonacci sequence. A fact that, when you tell your cousin, gets a golf ball thrown at your head.

Violet: So, why do you feel you need to save these things?

Mike: I’d like to say it’s nostalgia, but every time I think of throwing anything away, my ears start to ring, and I get butterflies in my stomach. And then it feels like the butterflies get eaten by rats, and then the, the rats get eaten by…

Violet: Okay. I get it. I get it.

Mike: It ends with dinosaurs. I’m sorry if you think less of me.

Violet: I don’t.

Mike: Really? ‘Cause every time I come in here, I think less of me.

Violet: Why?

Mike: Because I’m a fraud. No. I purport to be a boy of the mind. I’ve been such a, a vocal champion of the singularity, but how can I leave my body behind and become one with the internet when I’ve never even thrown a toothbrush away?

Violet: It’s okay, Mike. You know, I’ve saved a lot of weird things, too.

Mike: Like what?

Violet: Well, um, did you know I still have the wrapper from the first gum I ever chewed? It's a Wrigley's.

Mike: I have an old teddy bear I secretly wiped my nose on for years.

Violet: It’s not a contest.

Look who made a WWATCF as vines video———me!

The sheer lack of WWATCF or CATCF as vines videos is criminal…so, I decided to make one of my own!

-

(I also used two of the scrapped characters from the book, Miranda and Marvin, and two of the characters who are only in the Jr., musical version of Willy Wonka, James and Matilda)

who would win in a fight, a munchkin or an oompa loompa?

full disclosure I haven't seen the Wizard of Oz 1939 movie but I did read all the books 10+ years ago

I am going to say in a one on one, no holds barred fight to the death I think an Oompa Loompa would win. they have a drive to kill that Munchkins lack when isolated

in a group battle as well, I think Oompa Loompas would win as they seem like better team strategists. I think if the Wicked Witch of the East tried to torment the Oompa Loompas they would drown her in the chocolate river or send attack squirrels after her.

HOWEVER, with all this being said I think in a well monitored one-on-one fight (such as a sparring match where the Oompa Loompas couldn't fight dirty) there's a much higher chance a Munchkin would win.

No matter the scenario or who wins though, the audience would get to hear a little song celebrating their enemy's defeat and I think that's wonderful

I thought that Alice in wonderland was what sparked my absolute hatred for Tim Burton until I remembered when I was 8 and I would throw a fit anytime anyone would choose to play the 2005 charlie and the chocolate factory over the 1971 Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory

Survey Results pt. 2

Sorry about the wait, I had a six day work week.

Please Note: Many respondents said they weren't sure of the cause of their fetish, and could only offer suggestions. So again, some of these answers are guesses on the part of participants, and should be taken with a grain of salt.

Also, a couple of these graphs are breakdowns by percentage, these are indicated with a '(%)' next to the title

Reported Causes of Respondents' Fetish (%)

*Most respondents who said their fetish stemmed from encountering a pregnant person were young children at the time, a handful were teens. None were adults. Most pointed to pregnant grade school teachers and family members. Only a few cited complete strangers.

*"always had it" refers to respondents who claimed they had an unusual interest in pregnancy for as long as they could remember. Some of these cases started as a more general interest in large/round bellies that later crystalized into an interest with pregnancy.

*"kink osmosis" refers to those who developed their pregnancy fetish through other similar/connected fetishes.

*"didn't know" refers to those who claimed to not know (obviously) and offered no suggestions or guesses.

*"association of pregnancy with sex" refers mainly to those who first made the connection between pregnancy and sex in their childhood/early teens. Things like the first picture of a naked woman they ever saw being of a pregnant woman, leading them to subconsciously associate pregnancy with sex/sexuality.

*"playing pretend" refers to those who reported developing the fetish after playing pretend (either with dolls or with friends) as young children. NOT TO BE confused with those who claimed they would explore their interest/fetish through play, but didn't actually derive it from said play.

Types of Fetishes Which led to the Development of the Respondent's Pregnancy Fetish

*Many cited just a belly kink without going into further detail

Kink Osmosis (When Developed) Breakdown (%)

*As expected, only a small minority of respondents who cited kink osmosis as the source of their pregnancy fetish reported developing their pregnancy fetish during childhood.

*People who developed their pregnancy kink in adulthood are hugely over-represented in this category.

Types of Media Cited in by Respondents who Blamed Media Exposure (%)

*Many people specifically cited cartoon episodes where characters would get fat/round/inflated.

*Media cited by multiple respondents included Birth Stories 2000-2004 (a Canadian documentary TV series), A Baby Story 1998-2007 (an American reality show that ran on the Discovery Channel and TLC), Birth Day 2000- (an American TV series), The Fairly Oddparents 2001-2017 (specifically the episode where Cosmo gets pregnant), Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (which adaptation was never specified), the Aliens franchise, Men in Black II (2002), and The Sims.

Breakdown of Responses by Those who Stated that the Interest in Pregnancy was Always There

Gender of Respondents who Cited Fear as the Cause of their Fetish

Gender of Respondents who Cited Their Gender as the Cause of their Fetish

*Cis men reported their fetish as stemming from a need to prove their masculinity/male identity, cited a lack of confidence in said masculinity

*Trans women often cited gender euphoria associated with fantasies of pregnancy

*most trans men, AFAB NB people, and cis women cited a discomfort or fear regarding their ability to become pregnant, though a few trans men and AFAB NB also claimed that transitioning led to them reclaiming their reproductive abilities.

Types of Experiences Among Those who Cited Personal Experience as the Cause of their Fetish

A FEW NOTES

*two people specifically cited the art of metalforever on DeviantArt as the cause of their fetish

*YouTube was cited by 13 people, specifically birth videos, and in one case, those Elsa Spider-Man content farm videos.

*fanfiction and fanart were also a common source of people's fetishes

*6 people pointed to a parents/close relatives or family friends who were medical professionals who worked regularly with pregnant patients (midwives, nurses, doctors, OBGYNs).

*23 people recounted 'playing pretend' as young children and acting out scenarios involving pregnancy and/or birth.

Tim Burton At The Worldwide Box Office: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Becomes 3rd Highest-Grossing Film With Its $450M Cume!

The studio was reportedly skeptical about the film's box office performance.

Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice Beetlejuice recently crossed a major milestone at the worldwide box office, and with that, it has become one of the director’s top 3 highest-grossing films.

A few weeks back, the Michael Keaton starrer became the actor and director’s highest-grossing film in their collaborative career. It surpassed Batman’s $410 million+ global haul, and now it has entered the director’s top 5 biggest films list.

It has achieved an amazing feat and became one of the highest-grossing films in Tim Burton’s career. Let’s check out the celebrated filmmaker’s top 5 highest-grossing films.

Planet of the Apes (2001) – $362.21 million

Batman (1989) – $411.56 million

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024) – $450.67 million

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) – $474.96 million

Alice in Wonderland (2010) – $1.02 billion

It was released on September 6 and is also available as PVOD on digital platforms.

And it's still going! Incredible!

There's no reason why Burton shouldn't make a third and final film with this level of success.

‘SNL 1975’ Finds Its Garrett Morris, Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase And John Belushi

By Justin Kroll, Anthony D'Alessandro January 30, 2024 10:00am

Lamorne Morris playing Garrett Morris, Dylan O’Brien playing Dan Aykroyd, Cory Michael Smith playing Chevy Chase and Matt Wood playing John Belushi

EXCLUSIVE: Lamorne Morris, Dylan O’Brien, Cory Michael Smith and Matt Wood have joined the cast of Sony Pictures’ SNL 1975 that will be directed by Jason Reitman and based on the real-life behind the scenes accounts of the opening night of Saturday Night Live. Morris will play Garrett Morris, O’Brien will play Dan Aykroyd, Smith will play Chevy Chase, and Wood will play Belushi. The original screenplay is written by Reitman and Gil Kenan.

On October 11, 1975, a ferocious troupe of young comedians and writers changed television forever. SNL 1975 is the true story of what happened behind the scenes that night in the moments leading up to the first broadcast of NBC’s SNL. It depicts the chaos and magic of a revolution that almost wasn’t, counting down the minutes in real time to the infamous words, “Live from New York, it’s Saturday Night!”

The screenplay is based on an extensive series of interviews conducted by Reitman and Kenan with all the living cast members, writers and crew. Reitman, Kenan, Jason Blumenfeld, Erica Mills and Peter Rice are producing.

Morris can currently be seen in FX’s fifth season of Noah Hawley’s hit drama series Fargo as North Dakota Deputy Witt Farr. He joined the cast of Netflix’s Unstable for season two opposite Rob Lowe. Prior to this, he starred as the titular lead in the hybrid live-action/animated Hulu series Woke, inspired by the life and art of cartoonist Keith Knight.

O’Brien was most recently starring in Ponyboi, which premiered as one of ten films in the U.S. Dramatic Competition at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival. Up next, he will be seen in the feature films Caddo Lake, from the writing-directing team of Logan George and Celine Held and producer M. Night Shyamalan, and Anniversary, a thriller co-starring Diane Lane, Kyle Chandler, Zoey Deutch and Phoebe Dynevor. His other credits include Searchlight feature Not Okay from writer-director Quinn Shephard, the critically-acclaimed crime drama The Outfit, opposite Mark Rylance, Zoey Deutch, and Johnny Flynn; Paramount’s Love and Monsters and the popular Maze Runner franchise

Best known for his role on as the Riddler on the popular Fox series Gotham, Smith can currently be seen as Julianne Moore’s son in Todd Haynes’ May December. He most recently starred as Varian Fry in Anna Winger’s limited series Transatlantic opposite Gillian Jacobs and Corey Stoll for Netflix. Smith has also worked with Todd Haynes in both Carol (as private investigator Tommy Tucker) and Wonderstruck.

Wood has appeared in the original Broadway cast of Spongebob Squarepants and as husky kid icon Augustus Gloop in the Broadway First National Tour of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Television credits include Law and Order: SVU, Instinct and Difficult People.

Morris is represented by CAA, Entertainment 360, The Lede Company, and Myman Greenspan Fox Rosenberg Mobasser Younger & Light. O’Brien is repped by William Morris Endeavor Entertainment, Principal Entertainment LA, and Lichter, Grossman, Nichols, Feldman, Rogal, Shikora & Clark. Smith is repped by Circle of Confusion. Wood is repped by BRS/Gage Talent Agency.

The fact the children are the ones who are punished in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has never made sense to me. Like isn’t the whole point that the parents are the ones at fault for the children’s behavioral issues and struggles? Every fucking song describes how the parents caused the problem.

The Gloops never taught Augustus self-control. The Beauregardes pushed and pushed on Violet to be the best to the point she valued being number one over her own safety. The Salts spoil Veruca to hell and back to the point she doesn’t understand the world doesn’t revolve around her. The Teavees neglect Mike and allowed him to essentially be raised on television and the internet, leading to him growing up too fast and not developing any social skills.

Like, don’t get me wrong, the children aren’t entirely exempt from their own actions, but I was under the impression catcf was supposed to be a cautionary tale? Like “raise your children properly as they will become a result of what you allow.”

I guess you could argue punishing the kids is meant to shock the adults into change since they’re being forced to face the absolute worst sides of their own children, which they created. However this, to me anyway, doesn’t work with all of Wonka’s vindictiveness? If Wonka agrees the children’s behaviors aren’t their fault then why would he punish them? It doesn’t seem fair?

Because traumatizing/killing children for their bad behavior literally does nothing to help them because, as the source material is literally trying to say, their behavior is stimming from their parents poor parenting. So why isn’t it that the parents are punished and forced to change so that the children may then change under better parenting?

Not only that but the things Wonka punishes the children for are sorta arbitrary, particularly in Augustus’ case. You’re telling me Augustus deserves to fucking drown because he happens to eat a lot and is fat? By this logic if you told me Wonka decided to kill off Charlie just because he’s poor and spent that dollar he found on what he wanted instead of his family I wouldn’t even be surprised!

Obviously I’m taking it too seriously, it’s not that deep, but I stand by my stance that the parents should have received the children’s punishments.

When Charlie is depressed, Vaggie holds her and sings her own version of "Cheer Up, Charlie" from "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory". The rest of the staff have secretly witnessed this at one point or another, but never speak of it because they'll never admit that seeing the princess being sung to by her girlfriend made them cry.

I love my Chaggie requests. Sorry for how long this took. I gave that song a listen since its been so long since I seen that movie and it really fits Charlie and Vaggie well.

Angel

He just wanted to pull an innocent prank on the girls by releasing a toy mouse in their room but when he came to sneak in he stopped when he realized they were still in there. He attempted to wait it out until he heard the distinct sound of Charlie's muffled sobs. Vaggie sounded like she was trying to console her and it didn't seem to be working until she began to sing. The song was a bit familiar and Angel couldn't figure out why but it was very soft and sweet. And it sounded almost like a lullaby but with encouraging lyrics. The soft and loving lyrics coupled with Vaggie's voice made for one of the sweetest melodies he'd ever heard and when it was done he peeked through the cracks to see Charlie hugging her and thanking her. Angel wiped tears from his eyes and decided not to release the toy mouse. He'll just find some way to prank Husk instead

Husk

He had decided to find Charlie so he could discuss a different rooming situation. He was right next door to Alastor and he hated it. It was making him a bit grumpy and he was likely going to give her a hard time for it. But how could she room them right next each other?!? If he complained hard enough maybe she would...

His thought process stopped when he saw Charlie was crying sitting on the floor and Vaggie sat next to her. Vaggie started singing this beautiful tune that seemed to be written just for her. Charlie stopped crying and slowly relaxed her tensed up body before leaning into Vaggie's warm embrace. When the song was over it was far too a touching moment for him to interrupt. In fact, he didn't understand what he was so angry for. He'll just talk to her about it another time

Niffty

She had just finished alphabetizing the cleaning supplies and was itching for some more work so she attempted to find Charlie and ask. She zipped around the hotel but skidded to a stop to see Charlie sitting at a coffee table crying her eyes out. Suddenly Vaggie approached her noticing her distress. She asked Charlie what was wrong and Charlie explained how hard it was that they hadn’t received any new patrons since the extermination was canceled. Vaggie tried with little success to comfort her before resorting to singing to her

Niffty was entranced by this beautiful song and the sound of Vaggie's voice. It actually made her feel better and she was already feeling great. She decided she would go ask Alastor instead since the princess was now preoccupied with kissing Vaggie's lips

Alastor

Alastor was bored. And that would never do. He decided to go find someone to bother. Vaggie might be fun to pester with. He went in search of his next victim source of entertainment and perked up when he heard Vaggie's voice around the corner. But then he heard Charlie's cries and decided to listen in. He loved drama. But to his surprise Vaggie began to sing. He sent one of his shadows around the corner to be his eyes as he watched one of the most loathsome wholesome displays he'd ever seen.

Vaggie was singing some sweet lullaby meant to make Charlie feel better and it seemed to be working. Vaggie's voice was wonderful but the sentiment grossed him out. Not as much as he expected it to though.

When it was finished he opted to leave them alone. He couldn't stand such a waste of time this was... because it definitely didn't pull at his heart strings. Nope, no way.

Veruca: It might’ve been thoughtless of us to bake a Death Star cake. Violet: No, it combines two of Mike’s favorite things, chocolate chips and the ability to destroy a planet at the push of a button. Veruca: Well, anyway, it’ll be a nice surprise for the boys. And Auggie doesn’t think I take his interests seriously, so hopefully this will keep him fooled for a while. Violet: Okay, let’s get the fondant and start decorating. Veruca: This is pretty cool. You don’t see too many spherical cakes. (The cake rolls off the table and lands on the floor with a SPLAT.) Violet: I wonder why that is. (Later) Violet: Hey, guys! Veruca: Happy Star Wars Day! Mike: Wow, a Death Star cake! Violet: Yeah. We were hoping it might cheer you up. Veruca: And even though it meant we had to miss the movies, we could still be part of the fun. Augustus: Vell, you didn’t miss anyzing. Ve just started ofer. Veruca: Son of a gun!

Wonka, to the rotten kids: You're not completely useless, you can be used as a bad example.

[princess-of-the-corner]

About Scarlet Lady. It's really not that uncommon for some stories to questionably go both "This kid has been failed by the adults in her life" and "But screw that, let's laugh at her anyway." The bratty kids in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (especially Veruca) count as such. But the bratty kids in Willy Wonka are not the main characters.

SO HERE'S THE THING

You absolutely can do this sort of thing, but it needs to be balanced in a way!

Like the Veruca example! Yes, there's the discussion on how Veruca is like this because her father made her like this and that sucks, while also having us comedically roll our eyes when she acts like a spoiled brat.

The difference between that and something like ML is that Veruca hasn't been shown having moments where she's crying for non-entitled reasons, where she cares about her friends, where she wants to do good things and tries her best to be a good person...... only for us to swing back to 'haha isn't it funny that she acts like this??'

I think if SL was its own thing and not a fanfic it may have pulled this off a touch better as they never go into the depth that Chloé had in Seasons 1-3, just her being comically evil and then a last second 'oh btw her mom kinda sucks but whatever she chose to be an asshole let's laugh'. But having a source material that, for the first 3 seasons, did take this more seriously and give her depth, it doesn't work as well.

One is a comedy with a touch of tragedy so we can go 'hey that sucks' but still laugh. The other is a tragedy we're supposed to laugh at.

[artmakerproductions]

Continuing on, here’s the rest of the characters for the Owl House/Charlie and the Chocolate Factory AU.

Lilith Clawthorne as Willy Wonka; Collector as the Oompa Loompa(s); Luz Noceda as Charlie Bucket; King as Augustus Gloop; Amity Blight as Violet Beauregarde; Boscha as Veruca Salt; Matt Tholomule as Mike TeaVee.
