Answer 4

In the one with Johnny Depp they're all the same actor, Deep Roy, a dwarf who was made to look even smaller via. special effects. In the one with Gene Wilder they're also short people.

Answer 5

In both the old and new they are dwarves. In the new one it is just one copied digitaly by computer. The older one there are a couple of them because some of them look different, unless they did that by computer also, but i don't think they had the digitally advance then as they do now.

Answer 6

They're neither, they're natives from an island... or did you mean like the actor? Coz the actor is a normal sized man (just one guy plays all of them) but they use film techniques to make him look small.  

Answer 7

Dwarfs ( little people)  you can tell by their short statures: long torsoes, disproportionally short limbs, and the shape of their hands which have very short fingers, and wide shoulders.
