If there was a definitive embargo on adapting his books into films or making a sequel/prequel to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Paul King wouldn't be making one.

I’m only referring to the follow up of Willy wonka, The glass elevator nothing else .

With the Netflix deal, it's almost certain there will be a film adaptation of Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator.

No, I mean cheap. Small. Lacking in scope.

I was rolling at how cramped the mansion hallway looked.

I imagine "Wow! What a mansion!" will change to "Wow! What a ceiling!"

Yeah, I liked Anderson's films. They looked big and expensive.

Actually looks closer to the game style to me, the mansion in particular, the lickers, dogs and that zombie shot are all straight from the original game.
