My fave behind the scenes fact about this movie is that the nightmare boat scene, where Gene just starts randomly singing/screaming, was completely improvised. And Gene didn’t tell anyone he planned to do that. So all the parents and kids reactions were genuine.

A slightly more disturbing thought than Wonka just happening rooms that play to the children's vices is that he took the time to research the kids and then specifically built the rooms and devices for each child as a test to see if they could overcome their flaws. And given how he gaslights everyone this is a distinct possibility.

[@uK8cvPAq]

Why was Charlies vice a drink, old Joe probably spent his disability check at the bar.

[@grayden4138]

@@uK8cvPAq It wasn't. If we follow the above logic, Charlie had no vice, since there was no elaborate room for him. Wonka knew Charlie was who he was going to give the factory to before they even arrived. It's only incidental that Grampa Joe convinced him to swipe the Fizzy Lifting drink. Obvs the entire story is a parable on the dangers of greed, vices, and excess, but Charlie was always going to win. Sure, Wonka was pissed (more disappointed) at Charlie for taking a swig of the drink, but it was the gesture of giving back the Gobstopper that reinforced his decision. Wonka knew faux-Slugworth offered the kids money for one and even then Charlie didn't want it.

[@Weniavin1206]

@@uK8cvPAq Charlie's "vice" was that he cared deeply for his family, and he hated to see them suffer due to illness and lack of money. He beat his "vice" by returning the item that had been promised to solve their money issues. The "drink" was not the reason he "lost", it was the fact that Wonka knew he still had the everlasting gobstopper in his pocket and tested Charlie by telling him he received nothing, in hopes Charlie would still do the right thing.

It's the musical rule. A bunch of wacky nonsensical stuff can happen during a musical number, like an entire town busting out into song and dance, but as soon as the musics over things go back to normal. If Charlie had actually gone inside he would have been part of the magic too. Or, if you want to ignore the musical rule they could just have a tab through their parents since it's such a small store.

I always thought that the golden ticket contest was a sham. I assumed Wonka had investigated which children he wanted to show up for the tour then funneled the candy bars into their hands. And had planned how to eliminate the four awful children by their specific habits. Everytime, one of the kids was going to do a stupid thing, he always played like he was trying to stop them, but was really not putting much effort to stop them in reality.

[@CeltycSparrow]

And notice, Wonka ALREADY KNOWS what each of the naughty children are obsessed with and of all the rooms in his factory, he chooses to show them the rooms that they would particularly be drawn to (like gum for Violet and golden eggs for Veruca. Charlie was the ONLY child who didn't specifically have a room to tempt him.

Everyone is tortured for their sins by acting out their sins. Violet, for example, is punished for her self absorptive and greedy ways be becoming bloated.
