Wonka's father, Count Dooku, is so proud of him despite their differences.

[@Enceladeans]

Lollipops. Ought to be called CAVITIES ON A STICK.

[@Jonnys_Adventrues]

That was Charlie buddy Not wonka! 2 different people.

[@g.g.3794]

Fun Fact: Apparently, the scene where Charlie notices the newspapers about Willy Wonka's success Dr. Wonka framed is based on an event in Tim Burton's life where he met with his mother after years of estrangement. Turns out while he left home at 15 due to constant fights over his decisions, she had posters of his films framed and even kept her ticket stubs from when she went to see them.

[@wc8289]

@@Jonnys_Adventrues The movie was fcused on Charlie but the scene he is referencing is literally Wonka reminiscing on his childhood and his relationship with his dad who is a dentist

[@satsujin-shathewitchkingof6185]

@@JustJustin. it would be difficult to hint at without just having a Charlie Bucket character find the coin in the drain. That might’ve got too confusing if they were planning to do a sequel that also happens prior to the original story

[@benzaiten933]

the most unbelievable thing in the whole movie was how Willy kept this bar of chocolate his mother gave him when he was a child for all those many, many years (even while traveling aboard to hot climates), yet it was still edible at the end.

I'm refusing to believe this is a canon movie until i can force my head cannon on this movie that his mom was a tooth fairy and his dad was a dentist so he's a sweet tooth.

@benzaiten933 Chocolate bars have extremely long shelf life without spoilage. We still have chocolate bars left from WW2 that are edible, though admittedly very dry to the palate.

[@asmodiusjones9563]

@@RachMonPhoebswhen I was in grade school I was a Star Trek TNG fan and they were selling Star Trek: Generations chocolate bars. I bought 5 and considered them too valuable to eat for some reason. I wrapped them in paper and then in duct tape and put them in my drawer. Several years later I opened one to see they had completely crumbled to powder.

[@PolluxFrost47]

They kept the location of Charlie's home and the factory obscure in the original, even adding in contradictory details so it couldn't definitely be placed in any location

[@heltaku9397]

Yeah I love how it was located in Germany/England/the USA all at the same time.

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

I always thought the Chocolate Factory was in London, England, and never thought it was ambiguous. But, it sounds like they did the same thing The Simpsons did with Springfield, which has an unclear location somewhere in the US.

[@Serasesera]

Yeah, wasn't the whole point of the book that a child could imagine this amazing, magical place and not just have it be this real, definable place.

[@knotsochice]

Charlie doesn't want candy crazed spoiled Wonka fans knowing where he lives.

[@AnthonyDrogon]

​@@MatthewTheWanderer You misspelled "nuclear location", and it's pronounced "nu-cular"!

You know, that scene where they were in the chocolate vat, swam in chocolate, but then gave all the chocolate to the people. All of that chocolate was contaminated by them, thus began his constant health and safety violations.

[@knotsochice]

That's not chocolate Charlie...

[@sandal_thong8631]

Maybe that's the reason no one went inside his factory for years.

[@jazzycat8917]

[@colap3848]

I LOL'd at that line too. Haha

[@Mask0fFate]

Honestly, I would argue that Wonka’s experiences with the Candy Cartel and the inn probably helped wisen him up. Like, his sense of whimsy never left and he knows there’s good people in the world, but seeing the level that some people went to screw others over for their own benefit probably helped make him get a little more cynical of certain individuals (plus, you know, people sending spies to his factory to steal his recipes probably didn’t help).

[@matityaloran9157]
