Film Theory: Willy Wonka and the Golden Ticket SCAM! (Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory)

[@GameTheory]

For everyone saying the factory isn't in America, it actually IS American, believe it or not. The movie goes to great lengths to try and make the location ambiguous (nonsense monetary symbols, ambiguous coins, a German shoot location but everyone speaking English) but the television coverage of the Golden Ticket search we see Charlie watching always references "here in America." And in the book, he finds a "dollar" in the gutter. So signs point heavily to Wonka's being an American company.

[@ughpeople8668]

Okay but like...why not give it to all the children? Hear me out. Veruca Salt is from a super wealthy family who already know the ins and outs of owning and running a business, specifically a food based company. Not only will she be able to address the legal problems the factory faces, but she will be able to combine the companies to increase supplies and sales. Violet Beauregard is dedicated to competition, specifically candy based competition. She will be able to provide fresh ideas to outdo competitors. Augustus Gloop is obsessed with candy and would most likely be able to invent new ideas and flavours the keep the factory going. Mike Teavee would be amazing at advertising, knowing what gels with the largest audience and knowing how to cast the widest net possible for virtually everyone to see the ads for the factory. And Charlie, well with Charlie’s uncle’s background of working with Wonka and his own optimistic, carefree and creative ideals, he’s basically be the new Wonka in charge of taking care of everyone and ensuring no fights breakout between the kids. Boom the perfect factory

[@generalhorse493]

1. Can't say that Wonka didn't warm him before he fell in, also why did his mom do nothing to save her son and then blamed others afterwards? 2. Again, he warned the kid (which violet took herself and Wonka didn't give her mind you) 3. Again, warned beforehand. Also, he didn't have any trauma after he got smaller, and we don't see his unshrinking, so anything else is purely hypothetical. 4. We don't see the impact so any damages are hypothetical. 5. The contract is actually irrelevant because much like the "factory" it's all an elaborate ruse designed to test one's integrity. Why do you think Charlie's supposed contract violation is dropped immediately after passing?

"Everything in this room is edible. Even *I* am edible. But that is called 'Cannibalism', my dear children." (Yes, I know it's from the newer movie but it still applies)

[@sewthernbelle]

Not bad MatPat. Not bad. But let me try one better. Willy Wonka was willing to risk the OSHA violations because the contest winners never actually saw the real factory. What they saw was a series of carefully crafted rooms designed to test the real winner of the golden ticket contest. Why? To find his true successor. Who? Charlie Bucket. That's right! Charlie was the first choice all along. But Wonka had to test him. First piece of evidence that we see that the factory Wonka showed off wasn't the real factory was right in the opening credits. Remember the credits rolling over a series of conveyor belts and machines making chocolate? Funny how we never saw that room in the tour huh? That's because non disclosure agreements aside, Wonka wasn't going to trust his secrets to a group of strangers. So that's reason number 1 he created a bunch of fake candy making rooms that would still be way too small to produce the massive amounts of chocolate he actually sells. Reason number 2 is as he says in the movie, he needed someone to pass his secrets down to. So he sent his only non Oompa Loompa employee Mr Wilkerson to find an honest child. He found four kids that could have been candidates but they were eliminated. Augustus had a good head for business "it'll cost him a fortune in fudge" but he was a glutton. Veruca wasn't afraid to boss people around but she was spoiled and greedy. Violet was competitive but a nitwit. Mike had a scientific mind since he was always asking questions, but he was lazy. Then right in the same town Wilkerson finds Charlie Bucket. But there's a problem. All the other kids turned out the way they did because of their parents. And while Charlie was mostly a good kid, he still had a father figure in his life that was a bad influence. That's right. Grandpa Joe. After all the man spent twenty years in a bed then gets up and does a song and dance? Some kind of fraud going on there... Don't believe sweet Grandpa Joe was a bad influence? Who convinced Charlie to try the fizzy lifting drinks? So Wonka decides to create a series of fake rooms to tour and at the same time teach the runners up and their parents a lesson. That's why he quotes a bunch of random literature references as his own private jokes at the parents expense. All while testing Charlie and how he responds. He has Mr. Wilkerson pretend to be slugworth to bribe each of the kids. Which is why we see him talking to each one. And wasn't it a bit weird that "Slugworth" knew where Charlie was only minutes after winning the tickets? That's because Wilkerson had fixed it so each of the finalists would get a golden ticket and no one else. Upon learning about the fizzy lifting drinks, Wonka still had faith in Charlie and did one last test. He blew up at them, yelling at them. As expected Grandpa Joe yells back, with Wonka knowing he's challenging Charlie's father figure and forcing Charlie to make a choice. To take the easy way out like Grandpa Joe has done for most of his life and sell the Everlasting Gobstopper, or do the right thing. And Charlie did the right thing. Earning his reward. Only to discover that those fantastical rooms he saw were just for show and were probably dismantled the next day before the OSHA inspector got there. But hey...that's just a theory...a film theory!

Another note: wouldn't the boat contaminate the chocolate river, even if it's clean? Imagine if some oil leaked out, or some pieces break away from said boat. They'd have to be paying an incredible amount of attention to any boats that touch any of the products made in the Wonka factory. I know this is, what, 3 years late, but I feel like this would be another pretty big concern. If unnoticed, pieces of the boat could end up in the chocolate and be made into bar as it hardens, same with the oil. That could be a choking hazard or risk of food poisoning. Of course, this is only regarding the film discussed here; the more recent version with Johnny Depp used what I'm guessing is a candy boat with candy oars.

[@RozehKakes]

hopefully the sugar boat is just dyed sugar and not a different mix of candy and other stuff, cuz thats a diff realm of cross contaminating the chocolate river is already molten, so its possibly hot enough to begin dissolving or melting sugar (not at the same rate ofc, chocolate and cocoa butter are a lot of oil, sugar is crystaline and melts at higher temps) same thingnifnit was just a river of cold water, lukewarm milk (gross), any other fluid with a percentage of water (but surprizingly not in oil, so thats interesting 👀) sugar can melt in whatever amount of water that is avalible in the chocolate river mix, or even just dissolve from the slight bit of water left in the hardened material of the boat itself over time. candy doesnt last forever lol s o y e a even if its a small percentage and is highly diluted in the end production of whatever chocolate product itll become, its still a percentage of candy or additional sugar to all those tons of chocolate mix

On top of that you have all the soap stuff spraying out and almost certainly into the river. If you wanna talk about contamination dont talk about the german kid. TALK ABOUT THE VERY CHEMICALS WANKA HIMSELF IS PUTTING INTO IT

[@anneexoskin2287]

Well the boat that is in the film is a steam boat, meaning that it runs on coal, and wouldn’t leak that much oil. That being said imagine all the smoke and dust particles coming out of the stacks and into the chocolate river, they would have to constantly clean out the river to get all the dust out and it’s not just the river but also the pipes that are connected to the boiler room, if left unattended and unclean, it would not only be contaminating the chocolate from the chemicals in coal or oil, but it also would be a huge fire hazard if ever those chemicals came into the boiler. and the boat feels like an unnecessary use of transportation as wonka and the ompas walk around the chocolate river with no problem, The tunnel itself would not only bring people trama from the images from it, but for those of the employees or consumers who have epilepsy probably would have a problem with the flashing lights in the tunnel. The tunnel is also a flooding hazard, why, imagine if that big boat gets stuck in the very narrow gap tunnel, then all that boiling hot chocolate river that is flowing down from the waterfall would overflow and fill up the entire room until either the boat gets unstuck or the factory turns off and no more chocolate runs down the water fall.

[@lucyshields787]

He also anticipated the kids getting hurt in each room.

[@alastarwolfe1338]

@@AlechiaTheWitch well there only a few videos on it on here one by rinho stew and a follow up by Nordic Kong but it basically says that Wilfred is actually Charlie and that his 4 goons are the 4 kids from the movie. It goes on to say that Charlie who changed his name to Wilfred (which alot of objects on the Snowpiercer train are all branded with a big W like Wonka did) and that he's the one who built the super train. To quote Rinho Stew "Both movies revolve around economic class structure, children, food, but most interesting of all both of these stories thematically examine sacrifice choice and freewill" and "they are both movies about a group of people who work their way through a large fantastic structure, one by one a person from the group is removed from each room until one person makes it to the very end who then found out that the entire thing was a test bc a wealthy industrialist wanted to find a successor" It's a really cool few videos. Idk if I can link videos without getting deleted but just search Willy Wonka Snowpiercer theory and it should come up. I'd love to hear MatPats thoughts on it.

Man, thank you for this theory - I know my uncle is smiling from heaven with this video! An "I told you so" wink down to me. I first saw the original in the mid-80s (thanks VHS) at my uncle's house during Christmas. My uncle was a successful business man and by the time Wonka floated away at the end, my uncle said, "that Wonka character is the evil bad guy in this!" As a kid, I saw things differently and thought it was amazing Charlie got the whole business. As my uncle walked away, he patted me on the back and simply said, "I won't spoil this for you, but when you are older and still remember this movie, you will understand how bad things are for that kid and his family." As a business man, my uncle knew Charlie didn't receive a happy ending - he received a nightmare scenario. I forgot about that moment until seeing this video. Thanks for the flashback :-)

[@thegamingaristocrat7615]

It could have been just the icing on the cake in a way. think about it. If Wonka, perceived as a good and kindhearted person, admits that his factory is riddled with OSHA violations, that's it. His reputation is ruined. would you buy candy from a man who makes chemicals that can turn you blue and puffy and send you into space, or let filthy, germ-covered children splash around in the chocolate? No, and thusly he'd never sell another box of nerds again. However, since recipes being stolen is actually quite believable given the "Marvelous" effects of his sweets, (after all both movies mention people would try to steal them all the time) it makes the perfect cover to close the factory for a while to come up with a plan to bounce out before OSHA pops up. I imagine it went something like that.

There is one thing I HATE about the movie for some reason, and it's that the grandpa "magically" knows how to walk once he heard about chocolate XD

[@rebeccabriggs9452]

I mean.. he didn't "magically" know how to walk? The guy had a life before he became "Grandpa Joe". He was able to walk easily for year. It was also a key point in the book and the film that he had "tobacco" money, and that he was able to go out and buy Charlie a chocolate bar for his birthday in secret. Since We can pretty much work out that mom would not have approved of Charlie getting a secret present from just one grandparent (favouritism did not seem something that was encouraged), and that therefore he was unlikely to have given it to to them or to Charlie (who had been unaware of the bar before it was given to him), he must have gone down to the shops himself to get it. Grandpa Joe was always able to walk, he just didn't do it often probably because lack of motivation combined with being elderly and sore feet/legs wouldn't make him want to get back up for a long walk of any kind without a reason. Taking his grandson to a factory for a once in a lifetime opportunity when he had been asked specifically to do so (Bear in mind Charlie's personality, he was unlikely to say it if he didn't believe GrandPa Joe was at least semi capable of doing so), would have been a very strong motivator.

I think that doesn't count as a factory more of a artistic studio. Also lot's of these regulation violations consider that to be his actual factory. such a factory can in no possible way produce for the whole world so I think "Wonka's chocolate factory" was just it's name and it was registered as a one man experimental candy lab... and if he actually had employees coming and going maybe it would have been investigated but I guess he paid off the investigators?

[@henrylinks1087]

they aren't human so have no rights. they are not animals either. they are made of candy and a product of wonka inc. the oompa loompas are human candy hybrids, a wonka patented product

[@VlogGirl-uo7br]

Matpat: William Wonka. Me:... I see what you did there....

[@lizzie6018]

This is why Wonka’s factory has been behind closed doors.

[@SomeYouTubeTraveler]

Funny he's allowed to close them to the FDA, who is authorized to make random inspections and it's ILLEGAL to stop them from coming in your factory (for, you know, the exact reasons in this video).

What if his whole chocolate factory tour area was just kind of like a tourist attraction, somewhat like a set where the production of chocolate in such a fanciful way is just simulated for the entertainment of people going through the tour while the real factory with all OSHA standards met is just located somewhere else in the facility?

[@JoshuaClinard]

I feel like that is probably the case. Especially with the chocolate room. Surely he doesn't really turn the chocolate river into actual products. And some of these violations aren't really going to be enforced.

[@Aredel]

Not only would you still be violating all sorts of endangerment laws, and those facilities would still be in violating of OSHA and FDA regulations. Those laws still apply even if the rooms themselves are fake; they’re still containing and producing edible products, and those safety hazards still get the children and workers hurt.

[@thelanktheist2626]

@@Aredel Yeah, that’s what I thought. Theme parks still need to be regulated.

[@RaphBlade7]

My theory is Charlie & his family worked to get the factory up to code cause Charlie & Grandpa Joe knew firsthand how unsafe the factory was, while Wonka got sued for all the child endangerment!

[@dafilmqueen556]

Yeah, but that would require for them to find him in the first place..

[@reenamiller4489]

I kinda thought the boat ride would cause seizures or something with all the flashing lights, pictures, and noises. Still, you did a great job, Matpat! As always!!

[@cheriberry3]

I think that would be a violation of some kind. Whether it be an OSHA violation or not.

[@iexistyes_]

@@cheriberry3 should be, what if one of the workers have epilepsy or something similar? It will send them into a seizure and they could go to an early grave Edit: and I spelt grave as grace, awesome

[@Suzziixoxo]

Yeah imagine a kid with epilepsy was there?

[@josh.0220]

It's kind of ironic, being that there's a more explicit sweat shop in the movie (Mr. Salt's peanut factory)

[@T.BG822]

The 'more explicit sweat shop' probably would have passed more OSHA tests, to be fair

[@formlesscorvid5336]

T BG True.

That factory looked relatively normal. They probably get paid a normal amount.

The fact that theres no clear exit signs and fire extinguishers available easily get that factory shutdown on the spot.

Xion Pentagast The fact that there are rare endangered creature gets the factor shut down. Lol

[@williamfincher2260]

One thing a lot of people forget is that this is a factory, not an amusement park or playground. They had to sign papers saying they would only eat what they are given permission to eat and not enter areas without his approval. The kids didn't have self restraint or respect for the rules, and most of the parents didn't do much to stop them. If you mention Charlie and his Grandpa drinking the soda without permission, that wasn't in the book. Nobody was supposed to stick their hands in the chocolate river, chew the experimental gum that wasn't right, climb onto the egg inspecting machine (it was a squirrel pen in the book), or be sent by television. In fact, Willy Wonka advised against all pf those things. Augustus was put in danger because of his careless eating habits. Violet didn't listen to Mr. Wonka. Veruca couldn't handle not getting her way. Mike foolishly used Wonkavision despite seeing the candy bar get shrunk. In the book, the kids leave the factory alive. The Oompa Loompas helped them recover to the best of their abilities.
