..."Charlie & The Chocolate Factory" is pleasant to look at, but Johnny Depp gives the most awful act of his profession as the candy maker. Wilder reinvented Willy Wonka and the dim undertones of the book were lay elsewhere in an extra effortless to get to way for all. In the original, we don't see the kids and their parents leaving the factory. We don't know if they are alive, dead, or still strapped down in the dejuicing room. That is what made the original so astonishing. Tim Burton is an excellent director -- one of the best -- but he needs to spotlight on original work instead of these remakes. If he insists on the remakes, he needs to pick something rather less frightened than the best family movie ever finished. “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” is about a strange candy maker Willy Wonka (Johnny Depp) and Charlie. Charlie is a charitable boy from a poor family who lives in the shadow of Wonka's extraordinary factory. Long isolated from his own family, Wonka launches a worldwide contest to select an heir to his candy empire. Five of the fortunate children, counting Charlie, draw golden tickets from Wonka chocolate bars and win a guided expedition of the well-known candy-making facility. Dazzled by one remarkable picture following another, Charlie is drained into Wonka's unbelievable humanity in this surprising and endure story. Texture of the film’s scenery is shown the dull developed city surrounding as Wanka’s factory is excellent. The more or less colorless...

...his adventures inside the chocolate factory of Willy Wonka. One day Willy Wonka decided to allow five children to visit the factory. Each child will win a lifetime supply of chocolate after the factory tour. The children have to find one of the five golden tickets hidden inside the wrapping paper of random Wonka bars. Augustus Gloop (a boy who eats constantly), Veruca Salt (a girl who is spoiled), Violet Beauregarde (a girl who chews gum all day), Mike Teavee (a boy who is addicted to television), and Charlie Bucket win tickets and visit the factory. The factory is full of strange and fantastical rooms, including a chocolate-mixing room that looks like a huge garden, where everything is made of candy and there is a chocolate lake in the middle. The factory is staffed by small, pygmy-like men called Oompa-Loompas. "Accidents" happen while on the guided tour. Augustus falls in the chocolate lake. Violet, ignoring Wonka's advice, tries some of his three-course-dinner gum and swells up like a blueberry upon reaching the blueberry pie dessert. While In the nut-sorting room Veruca attempts to steal one squirrel herself – the squirrels deem her a 'bad nut' and throw her down the garbage chute. Mike tries to use the Television Chocolate machine –and ends up shrunken to about 6 inches high. Charlie, being the only child left and the one Wonka likes the most, wins the prize: he will one day take over the factory from Wonka, Wonka wanting to pass his factory on to someone else but wanting...

...There have been many movies that have been remade throughout the years, but one set that stands out the most is the two different takes on Roald Dahl’s Charlie book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, both are unique in their own way of bringing the book to life and expressing a certain theme, and although they both follow the same story plot, they both used different music or camera angles to get their points across to the audience. In the movie Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory they emphasised the theme of honesty by showing how charlie avoids the temptations of money and candy throughout the movie, one example is the scene where Charlie encounters Slugworth, they use a low angle shot to make Slugworth seem more intimidating and that...

...Question #1 A few of the macro-environmental factors that affect the Gourmet chocolate industry are the sociocultural segment, the demographic segment and political/legal segment. In recent years people have become more health conscious. The chocolate/candy industry has responded to this sociocultural change by introducing new products to reach these health conscious consumers. There has been an increase in the production of no-sugar-added and sugar-free chocolates and candies. In addition, dark chocolate has many health benefits. The industry is using these health benefits to increase their reach to those health conscious consumers. Chocolate/candy companies have even begun fortifying their candies with vitamins and skin enhancing ingredients. The chocolate/candy industry is also trying to take advantage of the demographic changes in the environment. Currently, Asians are the largest consumers of gourmet/premium chocolates. Following the Asians market younger adults that are not married, who are college graduates and who do not own a home represent the next largest consumers of gourmet/premium chocolates. There does not seem to be a correlation between affluence and the sales of gourmet/premium chocolates. Therefore, the chocolate/candy can focus their advertising and marketing away from the affluent market and towards younger educated individuals. Finally, the chocolate/candy industry is highly regulated by the political/legal segment. . These regulations...

Introduction “Harriet’s Fruit and Chocolate Company was established in 1935 in the Pacific Northwest of the United States to ship gift baskets of locally grown peaches and pears to customers in the United States (Oppenheimer, 2011)” In regards to the physical infrastructure of Harriet’s Fruit and Chocolate Company, my investigation will reveal many important aspects to aid in the planning of the network design. First, I will determine the number of buildings to be used, as well as the distance between them and what equipment they will contain such as wiring closets or computer rooms and the current network devices. Determining the distance will help in the cabling design and wiring as well as the selection of technologies and devices to meet the design goals. My investigation will further reveal any architectural or environmental constraints, such as tall trees within the path that power lines may travel, that will assist in decisions such as whether wireless technologies are feasible as well as if there are any impediments to communications or installation, to include all hazards. Infrastructure architecture consists of the hardware, software, and telecommunications equipment that, when...

...“The Storm” The short story “The Storm” by Kate Chopin, deals with the subject of adultery. The story takes place in the early 1900’s. There are two main characters, Calixta the wife, and Alcee the former lover. Alcee must take refuge from a passing storm in Calixta’s house; while he is there they end up making love, while Calixta’s husband and son have to wait out the storm at the local store. By doing this Chopin implies the theme that, adultery is natural and does not necessarily have negative consequences. Through out the story the constant changing of imagery plays a great role in the development of characters and their ability to demonstrate the theme. The subject of adultery was first introduced when Alcee asked Calixta if he might take refuge from the approaching storm within her house. That was also the first point when the author lets us know that Calixta may still have feelings for Alcee. This was shown clearly in the story when it says, “ His voice and her own startled her as if from a trance…” (124). Immediately after this the description of the setting changed from an outdoor relax feel to an indoor tense feel. This also lead to the feelings of both characters towards each other, which was shown when the room was described, “ The door stood open, and the room with its white, monumental bed, its closed shutters, looked dim and mysterious” (124). Soon after this, Calixta who is then feeling the situation gets up to look outside the window, as not to keep looking...

...emphasizing the sinister effects in them. All the while, still making the films kid-friendly. Furthermore, Burton creates his main protagonist as an outcast, for example, Edward in Edward Scissorhands and Wonka in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, to show how being different is a good thing because both characters still came out very successful.

...Tim Burton is a well-known American film director that has created dozens of dark movies. Two of his most famous films include the very original story of Edward Scissorhands in and his retelling of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Both films use many devices to help tell their unique stories, but Tim Burton’s expert use of lighting and camera angles cause the viewers to stay glued to the screen. One of the most powerful and visual elements any director can use to help create a story is color. Whether it is the color of the costumes, sets, or even the way the entire shot is tinted in editing, the lighting has a lot to do with how we see those colors. In both Edward Scissorhands and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Burton uses bright, popping colors in many of the scenes to symbolize what most people associate with good and normal things. In the early scenes of Edward Scissorhands, Burton uses energetic colors such as bright pink, blue, and yellow with vivid green lawns to represent the happiness of suburban life. Likewise, in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the colors of the candy factory are incredibly bright and are juxtaposed against the plain, dreary scenes of Charlie’s environment. Burton uses color in both of these situations to show that just because a place might be colorful, it does not mean that it is necessarily happier. Although the lighting is an obvious tool that Burton uses to create a certain mood, viewers may not realize the way the camera shoots the scene...
