Tbh, I fully expect merlin ro do another bubbleworks, get a **** ip (though in concept I like having catcf), then when I runs out just remove the copyrighted material and logos and keep a generic soap factory/ chocolate factory (although at least with the latter they can be a little more creative)I'm just not a fan of IP rides in general, true there are several that are exceptional, but most of which I really don't care about and sadly, Charlie is part of this, if not the worst. It's to me one of the worst IP's in terms of execution as mentioned above and most of my none enthusiast friends think rather lowly of it. When the licence finally runs out, it would be nice to see Merlin attempt an entirely orignal theme with it, though sadly I get the feeling that it won't be the case and we'll get yet another IP.
It does. Though in my opinion, it would be better if they focused solely on one, preferably the second film, as its newer and more well known.Charlie is such a weird IP though because the ride doesn't at all touch on what most people would consider to be the best known version of the story which would be one of the two films.
You say that, but to most people, even fans of Tim Burton didn't like the newer film that much. The original is just too classic to mess with.It does. Though in my opinion, it would be better if they focused solely on one, preferably the second film, as its newer and more well known.
I'm not sure that's true now, but certainly was 20 years ago and before then.I think they made the right choice to base it on Quentin blake's illustrations. After all, everyone and their dog has read the book as a child. It's just a shame it didn't live up to it's potential.
Personally, I actually prefer the second film though tbh I probably only prefer it as it has better animation.You say that, but to most people, even fans of Tim Burton didn't like the newer film that much. The original is just too classic to mess with.
