Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory

Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory

From Jenny Everywhere Wiki

There existed a film adaption of a novel involving five children and a chocolate factory.

The film was of importance to at least one Jenny Everywhere, as she had watched the film growing up with her granny, developing a crush on the protagonist and, as an adult, once shifted into a universe that she had hoped would resemble the film.

Story

The overall story involved a sweet little boy and four other spoiled and greedy children earning, chancing or buying their way into a chocolate factory. It was set in an ambiguously Germanic town. (PROSE: A World of Pure Unimagination)

History

In one universe, as a child, Jenny Everywhere and her granny watched the film. Her granny criticised how, despite children being invited from across the world, all of them were white. While Jenny knew that while that wasn't entirely accurate, as the children hadn't been chosen but had won or bought or lucked their way in, she didn’t argue. She was, in fact, slightly resentful and disappointed nobody like her was able to visit and "experience the magic".

By the time she had finished the film, she had developed a crush on the young protagonist, a part of her feeling that she could one day meet characters behind television screens, if she could only figure out how. As she grew older and entered high school, Jenny began to be bullied, so she tried to separate her childhood from who she was then. At this time, her crush ceased.

Jenny once blundered into a dimension wherein an "insane" Hyperspace Tyrant ran a tour of his idea of a whimsical factory.

On another occasion, Jenny began craving chocolate after meeting two marshmallow-like Pinguis in the Third Universe. Remembering her experiences with the film as a child, she shifted with merely a "loose idea" in her head, to "a world of pure imagination". However, Jenny found that this world was not like that of the film in several ways:

Jenny wondered initially dismissed the differences as something to be expected with the multiverse, before changing her theory to be either a universe where a "paid actor act[ed] out some kind of unauthorised tie-in" or a universe whose reality genuinely resembled an unauthorised tie-in. She soon took the situation seriously after encountering the Unknown, subsequently locating the aid of two Wonkidoodles to rescue the families in attendance and to incapacitate McDuff.
