Ummmm... Oh! I didn't even know there was a book! :P

This movie does seem darker. Thought that was Tim's doing.

Yeah. Roald Dahl (one of the great child book authors) has been dead a long time. But he wrote the original book. He hated the first movie.

I'm sure he would have a better appreciation of the new one.
