Official Charlie site updated

May 19, 2005 Charlie, Projects

veruca ticketA helpful reader named Ethan pointed out that the official site for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has been updated with new graphics and photos.

Unfortunately, a quick mousing-around reveals that way too much of it is still “coming soon.” But at least there are now placeholders for some crucial omissions, such as filmmaker bios (ahem) and the upcoming full trailer — which should be out by the end of the month.

The MPAA logo at the bottom of the main screen shows that Charlie has been rated PG, for “quirky situations, action and mild language.” The rating is news to me, since I didn’t think we’d even submitted for a rating yet. But PG is where we should be. The movie is goofy, but never terrifying. Any kid who can watch the Harry Potter movies can safely see Charlie.
