After watching Wonka, I felt the same warm magical feeling inside as I did when I watched Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory all those years ago. I do like the updated version that Wonka brings to the screen and I believe in my heart the late great Gene Wilder would approve of his character evolution and perhaps maybe he would feel a little envious of this version’s success …

[@juliebrusca7434]

I may not be the first to mention this, but how did Jessica cover every esoteric Easter egg in this movie, then skim right past the fact that Willy's Mom's note in the chocolate bar is written on a frickin Golden Ticket?!

[@BAYoungblood]

I believe the 5 friends that helped him is a reason why he only passed out 5 Golden Tickets in the original

[@bellatrixm98schannel99]

I was worried about this movie and didn’t see it in theaters. Just saw it on streaming and it was so precious!

[@addibatti]

I noticed immediately when I watched the 2023 film that Wonka drops a silver sovereign coin down the grate and in the original 71 film, Charlie finds a coin in the grate which allows him to buy the Wonka bar which leads to his dream of going to the factory. That hit me so hard. Because it's just perfect. Here Wonka is singing about his hatful of dreams and later a boy is going to find that coin and continue his dream.

I honestly want them to do one more. We got to see how Wonka got started but I really want to see what truly drove him to shutting down the factory. I know grandpa Joe explained it in the original but I think it would be fun to see him go though this. To see him bring the Oompa Lumpas to the factory and him starting to look for a successor. Bringing it back to the original. I know I’m dreaming but I would love to see more

[@herdthinnerb9949]

I really enjoyed this prequel. It kept me guessing how he’d get out of his predicaments, and wrapped up his allies’ stories nicely.

Let’s be honest - This broke the mold for this kind of project. I did not expect it to be as good as it is.

[@RatKeeper]

I am pretty sure that the reason that Willie Wonka has a boat in his factory is becuse in the movie Wonka it is revealed that he grew up on a boat, that is also problem the reason he has the little boat in the candy/chocolate store in Wonka.

[@bearaugz]

Saw this last night and I really enjoyed it, really felt like this was a well done prequel to the original.

[@StoryTimewithMissAnna]

I still have "Scrub Scrub" in my head.😊 So fun!

[@amymitman173]

splitting his mom's chocolate bar at the end is also a nod to the 2005 version when charlie splits his birthday bar with his family

[@OneHonestCritic]

That ending when he opened his mom’s chocolate… I just lost it. Especially since my mom passed last year. 😭😭

[@archangel1of7]

I love how positive this channel is. I'm so sick of criticism, honestly even the constructive kind.

[@NightFreeze9128]

I loved this movie way more that I was expecting to, but here's one dark take I have on it: Between Scrubbitt's shady contracts and Slugworth's monopoly and manipulation, along with how he bizarrely punished Wonka and Noodle for opposing him by trying to drown them in the chocolate vault, the movie subtly explains where Wonka learned all his business practices later in life...

[@alextafolla4893]

After watching Wonka, I could not stop tearing up how much memories it brought back from the original movie 😢

[@ryanjames5502]

still have the soundtrack stuck in my head. been singing it everyday. such a good movie ❤

[@steveiesals8709]

I think when slugworth and the others criticized wonkas hover chocolate in the beginning because it was overly complex foreshadowed why they enjoyed his mother's bar of chocolate so much, the simple purity of it.
