Description
Several transformation scenes in Tim Burton's new film of the
iconic children's story by Roald Dahl, involving beastly little
children getting their comeuppance. For those who have yet to see
the new film, the transformations (particularly Violet's) are quite
an improvement over the 1971 version.
Violet Beauregarde eats a "3-course meal" stick of magical gum that
malfunctions during the dessert course, blueberry pie. She slooowly
turns blue, spreading from the tip of her nose to the rest of her
face and then to her arms, body, and clothing. She then gradually
inflates into a round, massive (~10 m in diameter) blueberry with
only her head, hands, and feet barely visible.
Mike Teevee gets zapped into a television set, where he is only a
few inches tall. We watch him haplessly get tossed about from one
scenario to the next -- in the frying pan of a cooking show, on the
drum set of a rock video, etc., before he is finally fished out by
his father. (We later see a super-tall, flat version of him after
he apparently gets stretched out)
