A/N: I realized the last couple of chapters (including this one) have been pretty short, so I'm going to do my best to make the next one a bit longer.
Also, okay, this wasn't a request, but I just saw the film in question on Thursday, and... GOSH. I've always been a fan of Roald Dahl's, and this film TRULY does his work justice. It deserves any and all praise it gets.

Voiceover: Five golden tickets. Five lucky kids. One of them could win it all... it's Chopper and the Chocolate Factory!
(Cut to the front of the Wonka Chocolate Factory. Luffy, Usopp, Chopper, Nami, and Robin are standing in front. Luffy munches on a chocolate bar; Robin snaps noisily on her gum.)
Luffy:
This isn't as good as steak.
Nami:
We're not at a steak factory. Don't complain.
Luffy:
Who said I was complaining? (He
takes another bite.)
Usopp:
(To Robin.)
Do you have to keep snapping your gum like that?
Robin:
Look. The door is opening. (Sure
enough, the door opens, and out comes Sanji,
dressed nattily in a long coat and top hat.)
Chopper:
Hey, isn't that my hat?
Luffy:
You aren't supposed to be concerned with material possessions, you
know.
Chopper:
Hey! If someone took your
hat without your permission, you'd kick their ass. (Luffy
shrugs, and takes another bite of his chocolate bar.)
Sanji:
Ah! Welcome, welcome! I'm so glad to see you here! (He
walks straight to Nami and Robin.)
Well, then, shall we go in?
Luffy,
Usopp, and Chopper: Hey.
Sanji:
Huh? (He looks at
them.) Oh... you guys are coming too?
Chopper:
This episode is called Chopper
and the Chocolate Factory. I'd hope that was a given.
Usopp:
You won't win at that rate.
Chopper:
I don't care if I win or not...!
Usopp:
That's better.
Chopper:
... What's the prize?
Usopp:
That shouldn't matter!
Chopper:
I just wondered!
Sanji:
Helloo? You say you want to go in, and then you just stand around
chatting like it's no big deal! (They
start walking inside, Nami
and Robin
on either side of Sanji; Usopp, Luffy,
and Chopper
trailing behind.) So. Tell me all about yourselves.
Nami:
I'm Nami Salt. My dad made all his workers unwrap chocolate day and
night so I could find my Golden Ticket.
Sanji:
Ah! How adorable! The world at your beck and call, as it should be.
And you?
Robin:
(She blows another
large bubble. Usopp winces.) I'm Robin Beauregarde. I'm a winner.
Sanji:
Then that explains how you've won my heart.
Usopp:
Oh, I'm Usopp Teavee--
Sanji:
Did anybody ask you? (Usopp
falls silent, looking very disgruntled. They enter the main chocolate
room then. Inside, there are bunch of tiny Zoros
running around.)
Luffy:
Ooh! A chocolate waterfall! Hey, mister, where's all your steak?
Sanji:
This is a chocolate
factory.
Luffy:
Is it here? Or here? Or here? (He
starts looking under, around, behind, above, etc., all the objects in
the room.)
All:
THERE'S NO STEAK!
Luffy:
Then why am I here?
Sanji:
I couldn't tell you. (He
"discreetly" kicks Luffy
into the chocolate river.) Oh! You should all learn a
lesson from this, children. Gluttony is bad!
Usopp:
You kicked him in!
Sanji:
That's right. It pisses me off, and I kick you in a chocolate river.
You wanna be next? (Usopp shakes his head. The Zoros
gather.)
Zoros:
(Singing.)
Luffy Gloop! Luffy Gloop!
The great big greedy nincompoop!
Nami:
Oh! They sing! What are they?
Sanji:
I'm glad you asked, my dear! They are Oompa Loompas. Actually,
there's only one of them, and the rest are just digitally recreated.
That's the real one. (He
points.)
Zoro:
... Why am I
an Oompa Loompa?
Nami:
I want one!
Usopp:
Hey, hey, if you're greedy, bad things will happen to you.
Sanji:
(Picking up a Zoro and handing it to her.) Here you go, my dear.
Nami:
Ah! Thank you, Mr. Wonka!
Usopp:
That's not what you're
supposed to do at all! (Robin
snaps her gum again.) And
would you stop!
Sanji:
Don't you dare raise your voice to a lady!
Nami:
Anyway, can we go to the next room?
Sanji:
Yes! Right away! (Off
they go to the inventing room. Screw boats.) This is my
inventing room. It's where I... invent. For example (he
picks something up) this stick of gum is a full
three-course meal! (He
offers it to Robin.)
Would you like to try it?
Usopp:
Wait--
Robin:
Certainly, Mr. Wonka. (She
takes out the piece of gum that's in her mouth already and sticks it
behind her ear, then pops the new one in.) Ooh, it's
delicious! Tomato soup... roast beef... blueberry pie...
Usopp:
Oh no! This is gonna be bad...!
Chopper:
Huh? Huh? What's gonna be bad?
Robin:
That was very good. (She
blows a bubble, snaps it, and goes back to chewing.) But
it loses its flavor fast.
Usopp:
What? Aren't you supposed to turn into a blueberry?
Sanji:
Don't be ridiculous. Why would I let a disgusting thing like that
happen to dear Robin Beauregarde?
Usopp:
Because that's what's in the script.
Sanji:
Screw the script.
Zoros:
Dear friends, we surely all agree
There's almost nothing worse to see...
Chopper:
Huh? Why are they singing? Nothing happened.
Zoros:
Than some repulsive little bum
Who's always chewing chewing gum!
Robin:
Ah, well. It seems I must go anyway, blueberry or not.
Sanji:
No!
Robin:
(Being escorted away by
the Zoros.)
Sorry, Mr. Wonka. Thank you for the gum.
Sanji:
(Dropping to his
knees.) Why. Why is it always the beautiful ones?
Nami:
Hey, I wanna go to the next room now!
Sanji:
(Jumping back up.)
Yes!
Usopp:
He sure is resilient... (They
trek to the next room, where squirrels are shelling nuts.)
Nami:
Ooh! Squirrels! How cute! I want one!
Sanji:
(He picks one up and
hands it to her.) Here you go!
Usopp:
WRONG AGAIN!
Nami:
Thank you, Mr. Wonka! Look, Mr. Squirrel, it's an Oompa Loompa!
Zoros:
Nami Salt, the little brute,
Has just gone down the garbage chute!
Chopper:
Huh? She did? But she's right here!
Sanji:
She has to go too? Why
am I giving this tour!
Nami:
(Walking away.)
Hey, Oompa Loompa, can we take a shortcut through the treasure room?
Usopp:
There's no such room!
Sanji:
(Sighing heavily.)
Let's just get this over with. (They
go to the next room. It's blindingly white. He puts on a pair of dark
glasses.)
Chopper:
My retinas!
Usopp:
Hey, where are our glasses?
Sanji:
Huh? I dunno, go find 'em yourself. (Usopp sighs, pulling two pairs off a rack by the doorway and giving one to
Chopper
while putting the other on himself.) This is the TV room,
blah blah blah science, blah blah blah television, blah blah blah
fishcakes.
Usopp:
Ooh, I'm going to send myself across the room with this thing!
Chopper:
Why do you want to do that?
Usopp:
Because... it's what I do. (He
jumps up onto the platform and turns the machine on. Nothing
happens.)
Sanji:
There's a difference between a particle and a wave, you know.
Usopp:
Not necessarily; haven't you ever studied the dual nature of light?
Sanji:
(He lights a cigarette
and takes a long drag.) Not at all.
Usopp:
No wonder your machine doesn't work. You don't know anything about
physics!
Zoros:
The most important thing we've learned,
So far as children are concerned
Is never, never, never let
Them near your television set!
Sanji:
You heard the Marimo Loompas, get the hell outta here. (He
turns to Chopper.)
You the only one left?
Chopper:
Huh? Oh! I guess so.
Sanji:
Ah. Well then. That makes things easy. I think it's fairly obvious
who the winner is.
Chopper:
(His eyes light up.)
Oh?
Sanji:
It's a tie between Nami Salt and Robin Beauregarde!
Usopp:
(Turning around as he's
lead away.) YOU GOT IT WRONG AGAIN!
Voiceover: ... Yeah, I got nothin' for ya, folks.

I wrote out my aggressions regarding gum chewers through Usopp. People that sit there and snap their gum all day make me twitchy and violent.
