Top 10 Roald Dahl Film Adaptations

The Top Ten
1 Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory

The 2005 version is better, because it is closer to the book, the boat scene isn’t scary like in this version (I have no idea what the creators were thinking when they were making that scene), the kids don’t die, the chocolate river looks better, and Johnny Depp is better than Gene Wilder as Wonka.

2 Matilda
3 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

This was for based on the book.
It even had the name.
The 70s movie was more about Willy Wonka not Charlie and was a musical.
People only like the 70s version more for it being a musical classic.

4 James and the Giant Peach
5 Gremlins
6 Fantastic Mr. Fox

Such a great movie!
