Actually I like the grumpy other grandpa. He's just trying to not get Charlie too excited over something almost impossible, he's conscious he already has a hard life and just don't want him to suffer. That's very sweet, but hidden behind an angry attitude. But as soon as Charlie has the ticket, he encouraged him as much as he could.

Some things: First, the oompaloompas are indeed made by one single actor, the actor had to made the scenes over and over in different possitions and different coreography and everything was put together to give all the realism to the multiple oompaloompas. In an interview the actor said that it was the hardest role of his carrer and he won't do a role like that ever again. Second, the first time Willy Wonka crashes against the crystal door was an accident, but Jonny Depp did it again a second time to make it like it wasn't an accident. Both crashes weren't in the script. Third and last, the fact that Willy's father had paper cuts of all of his archivements was inspired of one real life event of Tim Burton's life. He didn't have a good relation with his late mother because she didn't aprove of him becoming a movie director and spent years without speaking. One day, he got a call saying that his mother was in the last stretch of her life, so he went to visit her and he was surprised to see in her room posters of all the movies he directed.

It took me ages to understand the father's house being moved. It's actually a metaphor. So the physical place never moved, but it's more to do with the emotions of not being welcomed home/isolated from his father so much that it feels like he could be in the middle of nowhere in Siberia and it would be just as far

A lot of people didn't like this movie because they kept comparing it to Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory with Gene Wilder. But what most people don't know is that the original was looked down upon because is had a lot changed between the book and the movie, where this movie is more correct with the book. I really like Depp's performance and Tim Burton's version.

Gonna go off on a whim, but out of the two Chocolate Factory films, this is my preferred one: - More book accurate - Better, more complete ending - More interesting characterisation, especially the rotten kids (the original characters were really basic and flat) - Mr Bucket exists (and this raises the stakes when he loses his job) - Better grandparents (other 3 in the original might as well not have been in the movie) - Buckets actually feel like a tight-knit family - Great, high production value, making use of the 2005 tech - Excellent cinematography (compared to the dull execution of the first movie) - Cool, grungy atmosphere - Superb, outstanding sets - Varied and catchy music (not the same copy-paste template) - Wonka’s backstory - Dahl hated the original movie (even said it was too sappy and saccharine) - Crazy attention to detail (like Wonka’s pale skin and awkwardness from not going outside, the linguistically accurate Wonka bars, Augustus’s bars even have German writing, Violet’s panic chewing, Charlie savouring his food and wrappers etc.) - Was clearly a passion project instead of a commercial pretending to be a movie - Poetic in some areas (Charlie and Wonka parallels, Mike calling the Oompa Loompas “little freaks”, camera focused on Augustus when Wonka said not to get overexcited, followed by him dropping and stepping on his chocolate, Violet’s mother’s karma when she mocked Augustus fitting through the pipe etc.) - Better at showing instead of telling, like flashbacks and small facial expressions and cues

I always wonder why so many more people are into the original movie more than tim Burton’s. Probably because of gene wilder, but I’m not so into the original story. I hate joe and Charlie so much in the original. The only great thing in the movie was gene wilder. The other actors did terrible. U really get to feel more and really hate the kids in Burton’s version.

Even though the source material is the book which this movie did way more justice to (even the title is book-accurate). The characters in the first movie feels like NPCs, so one note and generic. These kids feel like actual fleshed out characters with more depth and personality, and they are actually nasty kids like they should be. Same with even Charlie's family, the other grandparents are actual people and not background props that contributed nothing. Even the fact that they showed the kids and Charlie's family at the end of this movie unlike the first movie showed how little the 1971 movie cared about its side characters

Got to see this in theaters in 2005. I learned that Roald Dahl's wife and daughter oversaw the production of this film which is why it is more accurate to the book. The ending between Wonka and his father is a tribute to Tim Burton and his mom. She kept posters for all his movies. Also the weird fact is the Gene Wilder version used real chocolate but looked fake whereas this version used fake chocolate but looks real. And Danny Elfman did all the vocals of the Oompa Loompas. Anyway glad you reacted to this one!

I know this film is a mixed bag for certain folks especially those who prefer _Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory_ like the Nostalgia Critic, but personally I say I enjoy _Charlie and the Chocolate Factory_ as much as _Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory_ thanks to the production design of the Candy Room, the performances of the child actors especially Freddie Highmore as Charlie, the musical score of Danny Elfman and that it was very close to the original book by Roald Dahl. Also, the only Golden Ticket Winners from the film that are still acting following this film are Freddie Highmore (Charlie), AnnaSophia Robb (Violet) and surprisingly Jordan Fry (Mike Teavee), Jordan briefly retired/quit acting in the early 2010’s by going to High School but eventually resumed doing acting in the film, "Big Life" in 2023. Philip Wiegratz (Augustus) and Julia Winter (Veruca) are currently the only ones who retired from acting with the former’s last acting role in 2013 and the latter stopped acting completely after she played Veruca in this film apparently going the same route Peter Ostrum (the original Charlie from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory) went through. Hopefully you’ll react to _Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory_ and especially _Wonka_ along with reacting to _The Witches, James and the Giant Peach, Fantastic Mr. Fox_ and _Matilda_

The fact Wonka says that Cannibalism is frowned upon in *most* societies implies he's met a society where it *isn't.* The only other society he's met - The Oompa Loompas, implying cannibalism is something they do, in fact, partake in if they can't get enough cocoa beans. And, interesting fact for you, the actor playing the Oompa Loompas is *one* actor and they just filmed him doing various things and then inserted him into the scenes. *Another* interesting fact, the song when Veruca goes down the garbage shoot was the song I had to sing for my media exam at school!

I love that you reacted to this one - it's my favorite version! I grew up with the 1970s one, but I read the book right before this one came out and was so pleased that the movie followed it so well. I love that they kept the "Mumbler!" bit in the movies - it’s something I remember from the book and my mom and I still quote it to each other to this day. 😆 Have you watched Matilda? It’s also a story by Roald Dahl, and though it’s a bit older, I think you’d really love it.

At 31:44, when young Wonka is tasting chocolates and making notes about them, this was loosely based on one of the author Roald Dahl's experiences growing up, which he recounted in the book Boy, which was an autobiography of his childhood. He went to a boarding school as a boy, and Cadbury (in a genius move, IMO) would send sampler boxes of chocolates to the boys there, with some classic flavors and a few new ones they were trying out. They had the boys send back notes about the new flavors to help them decide which ones to put in production. The boys took this job very seriously, and sent back comments like "lovely bouquet," as though they were testing wines. It's fun to see Deep Roy as all the Oompa Loompas. I only know him from The Neverending Story, when we see him in a top hat, riding his racing snail.

I agree- ​I myself LOVE both versions; they are so different from each other, but that's one reason I really like both equally in their own way. I'd seen the older one first, and when I saw a newer version came out, I was quite pessimistic about how much I'd like it, just because I've seen so many disappointing "remakes" in general. But what "saved" this "remake" for me was how they put enough quality differences for it to seem like almost a totally different movie. My impressions of the two are: This newer one = Creepy, weird, but quite cool (like many of the songs) Older one = Magical, innocent, comforting / feel-good :)

I prefer this version over the first adaptation. I do love Gene Wilder but that adaptation was a mess; so much so that Roald Dahl basically disowned it. They even changed the title to "Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory". This version is far more accurate to the original material. I felt they had a greater respect for the author and his creation.

Despite the most recent Wonka movie, there's not actually supposed to be magic. Wonka is just a mad genius who operates by a logic that only makes sense to imaginative children. Kind of like Alice in Wonderland. Also, while it is not directly in the book, this movie draws out a lot of the between the lines that were Dahl's intentions. Wonka despises naughty children and the parents who ruin them (in this movie, it is because of his own father and his relationship). There are theories that he scouted all the children ahead of time and made sure that it would end up with them. Charlie was his goal because he wanted to 'adopt' the impoverished boy, not realizing that someone could be happy with their family and refuse. And the ten dollar note that Charlie found? Wonka planted it. The others were just nasty children whose weaknesses he planted so they would drop out and Charlie would seem like a fair winner. At the same time, he freed the kids from their parents- Violet is happy with her achievements as a flexible person but her mother can no longer live through her. Augustus is disgusted by chocolate and will become healthy weight. Veruca's father now says no to her. Mike has been scarred by the reality within the TV he is obsessed with and will think twice about squishing little video game characters for fun. Hopefully he will also take up basketball.

Wonka also reads as a fever dream in the book, in my opinion. He feels mysterious and hostile but not in a direct way and always made me feel uneasy as a kid. But he's still lovable and a widely beloved character. I think that's partially bc of Charlie who is both wise for his age but still innocent and creative and open. They reflect each other strangly, Charlie could very easily be bitter about his situation and become a Wonka type but instead helps Wonka become more like him

If you are wondering why the Augustus Gloop song wasn't clear about what was going to happen, that's mostly because it abridged Roald Dahl's original lyrics, making it MUCH shorter, so there was a lot of detail left out. The others also cut out a lot of the lyrics, but they all kept essential parts of the lyrics. It's a good thing, too, because the song about Mike was mostly a rant and the message is "Throw out your TV and read books instead", only bringing in Mike at the end (all the lyrics relating to him were included here). Violet's original song was actually an allegory about a woman who chewed gum all the time, even when she was asleep, and ended up biting her own tongue off. Veruca's song listed a lot of other disgusting pieces of rubbish and then added a bit of extra context about how not all of the blame should fall on her because her parents made her what she was.

And I can forgive the addition of the dentist backstory, since CHristopher Lee elevates everything!

While it doesn’t happen often with movies, I actually find comparing movies and their remakes very fascinating. (That is when the remake is an actual good movie/remake.)

The subject is treated like it was Wonka’s fault but Wonka never run away from home he just went to museum to cheer himself up 😭 That’s INSANE and the only explanation I have with that is Willy actually having serious mental health issues and so his memories are not trustworthy and part of his semi-delusion (like the house teleporting away etc). Plus the dad (excellent Sir Christopher Lee) isn’t even shameful or apologizing for that he just looks sorry like he lost contact with his son accidentally. The fact he has a picture of Willy older without his dentistery stuff is also super suspicious 😳 WW is just insane lol
