Show Notes
Roald Dahl is one of the bestselling children's authors of all time, but how does this middle grade classic hold up when adapted by Henry Selick? In episode 225, James & Luke explore what scenes stayed with them most over the years and which did not, including a traumatic rhinoceros, an odd mecha-shark, some misguided live-action sequences, Randy Newman's music, and a couple of potentially problematic aunts. They finish by casting their votes for which version did it best: the book or the movie!
