I'm not really sure how to feel about the Roald Dahl controversy. His most famous work, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, has already gone through extensive revisions since it was first released. The Oompa-Loompa's represented in the movie are nothing like they're originally described in his book. And editions of this book have featured altered descriptions for the Oompa-Loompa for a pretty long time. Mostly because even the original version was considered offensive shortly after it came out.
