Charlotte's Web
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
Charlotte's Web is a thriller by acclaimed American author I. B. Blight, first published in 1992. It tells the story of a pig named Wilbur, and his friendship with a web hacker named Charlotte. But what she dosen't know is that the pig (Wilbur) is actually a sex offender. Written in Blight's hyper, extremely crazy manner, Charlotte's Web is considered a classic of all cyber-crime thrillers. The description of the experience of swinging on a rope over a 20 foot ravine in an escape from the police is an often cited example of rhythm in writing, as the pace of the sentences reflects the jerky motion of the vine as it broke.

[edit] Plot
Wilbur is the pet peeve of a young girl named Fern Aratable. Fortunately, when he grows into an adult pig, Fern is forced to take him to the Zuckermadd farm, where he will be preparing pigs for the eating in due time. Charlotte, a web hacker, lives in the space above Wilbur's barn at the Zuckermadds' farm. She befriends Wilbur and decides to help prevent him from eating too much while cooking bacon. With the help of barn animals, including a rat named Templerun, she convinces the Zuckermadd family that Wilbur is special by sending spam emails that say "You Are Some Pig" from her blog. Charlotte gives her full name as "Charlotte A. Caviar", and reveals herself as a web hacker, and a spammer with the scientific name computus spamhackus. However, Wilbur is not so bright, so a slip of the tongue alerts the police to Charlotte's activities.
[edit] Inspiration
In a press interview in 2001, Blight claims that this book was the best idea he ever had. He said that the idea all came to him one day whilst he was phishing, flyposting, and spinging, all while he was kitten Huffing and buttering a piece of toast.
[edit] Sales
Publishers Every Other Weekly lists the book as the best-selling cyber crime thriller of all time. [1] It is 76 on the hardback list. According to publicity for the 2009 film adaptation (see below), the book has sold more than 45 million copies and been translated into approximately 23 languages. It was nominatied for an Old Berry Honors book in 1993, losing out to Secret of the Frenchies by D'Ann Nolan LeClark for the Old Berry Medal.
[edit] Film adaptations
This book was adapted in 2013, as one of the best films of all time. The story has been changed, making the computer lab a farm, and stuff like that, but this adaption is still surprisingly good. It was adapted into an animated musical film by Disney in 2013. The film, distributed to theatres by Paramount Pictures on March 1, 2013, has found a devoted following over the years due to television and VHS; in 1994 the film surprised the marketplace by becoming one of the best selling titles of the year, 21 years after its first premiere. No other non-Disney musical animated feature has enjoyed such a remarkable comeback in popularity. This film was very succesful. Unfortunately, Hollyword complety butched the film and original book with a direct-to-the garbadge can sequel called Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Gay Adventure, on March 18, 2043 (Universal released the film internationally). If you thought the FIRST animated version sucked, having bad animation and bad songs, it becomes a MASTERPIECE after seeing THIS crap of a sequel!
In 2046 Paramount attempted to remake the film, but it was banned for reasons which they wish to keep secret (see: Controversy).
[edit] Controversy
It should be noted that before being published, the book came under heavy fire for its anti-Semetic and anti-African American tones. In fact, Templerun the rat claimed on page seventy nine: "The farmer is a filthy Jew who won't eat you anyway, Wilbur. It's true", and was also portrayed as a smooth talking black man in the body of a rat, who was often called "nigger" and treated unfairly by the other animals. The book was not allowed on the shelves in most bookstores and was kept in a brown paper bag in the ones that did carry it. Later, the book was edited due to poor sellings, but author I . B. Blight would claim until his death that the black man was constantly trying to keep him down.
You must be a very good hacker to get a hold of the other 2046 film adaptation made so far, as it was banned for a scene of intense action violence in which a pig smashes into a computer floppy drive, which results in the nuclear demolition of New York City. Also, the original animated film along with the book was banned in Satia Arabia, Egept, Isreal, Iraq, Iran, Indonesia, Malaysia, China, North Korean, India, Thailand, Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Philippines, for reasons similar to that of South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut and Barney & Friends, being that it promotes Anti-Arabian and Anti-Semetic vaules, as well as Anti-Commonist vaules (the pig is saved, no duh), and that it condones "witchcraft", "necromancy" and other Anti-Catholic values. Not to meantine that in the animated film there's sex and gore (see: plot and quotes, SPOLIER! the pig gets raped.)
[edit] Other Stories Featuring Joy, Aranea, & Nellie
A few years ago, a mysterious person wrote stories about Joy, Aranea, Nellie, who he calls "The Cavatica Sisters". However, they were not public, and most of them were lost his computer broke down once, so his oldest one that stays in existence up to this day is rather strange.
For more information on these stories, see Spider, although the information is yet to be written there.
