Yes thank you so much miss gene wilder so much rip;( this movie is my childhood so much good nostalgia.
Gene Wilder (better than Depp) and the songs make the original better. Wonka in this version is testing the children, thus; the dead pan stop. Don't do it.
@@jjjones8609 I 100% agree he was born for the role and I bet he’s doing this kind of acting in heaven rip
Can you and some of your friends react to: The Blues Brothers (1980) ?
“The suspense is terrible. I hope it’ll last.” RIP Gene Wilder. Thank you for giving us a world of pure imagination.
Gene Wilder is in horror/comedy movie “Young Frankenstein”
@@jonathancruz5932 one of my favourite movies 😍😍😍
He found his own golden ticket. Respect Mr. Wilder. Probably happily reunited with his good friend Richard Pryor and beloved wife Gilda Radner.
I love some of the deadpan deliveries he gives in this. "Help, police, murder." And "Stop, no, come back." are my favorites.
@@pyronuke4768 And Gene Wilder is more beautiful than tulip scented soaps in this. Right in his prime.
My favorite quote is when Mr. Wonka says “Stop don’t come back” sarcastically. The way he says it is pure gold.
I said that to a boss when working security when he asked me what would I do if I see someone stealing
@@danielepps8729 😂 Did he understand the reference?
@@miner2268 Not Really
A lot of it is kind of a CYA maneuver but knowing that it won't matter what he says anyway.
"But Charlie, don't forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he wanted... He lived happily ever after." One of the best ending lines of a movie EVER!
Gene Wilder was the only actor who I cried for his death.
He was, is and will always be my favourite actor. He could do drama and comedy like little people has done on the film industry.
A real treasure.
RIP
The boat scene is one of the most iconic pieces of film, and interesting fact: Wonka singing in the dark tone about not knowing where they're going and the danger growing was UNSCRIPTED. Those were the actors' genuine reactions to Gene Wilder's horrifying tune and it was brilliant!
The poem was scripted (it's actually a Roald Dahl poem completely unrelated to the book) but his delivery wasn't supposed to be that intense and disturbing - That's what scared the child actors, they thought Wilder was going mad hahaha
That scene never fails to terrify me, even as an adult 😂
Not to mention that 3 of the actors thought he was going mad.
“There’s no earthly way of knowing… where exactly we are rowing. Is it raining is it snowing… is a hurricane a blowing.
I love this movie ❤Definitely my favorite movie version of this classic children’s book.
"Pure Imagination" is, at first listen, an uplifting and hopeful song, but after understanding Wonka's life story, it's the song of someone who's lost their faith in people, and is rather sad.
The kids never saw the chocolate room before filming, so their reactions were 100% genuine. 😀
Actually one of the girl actors either violet or veruca got a glimpse of the chocolate room while being given a tour during construction of the room before the guide was told that the director didnt want any of the kids to see it. She has admitted it on a video where 4 of the kids talked about gene wilder as adulls a few years ago
17:56 That famous somersault that Gene Wilder did during his introduction was actually the main reason Gene accepted the role of Willy Wonka. When the filmmakers offered him the role, Gene said he would do it on one condition: If his character could limp to the gate, the crowd quiets down into confusion and anxiety. And then as he approaches the gate, his cane gets stuck in the ground (The piece of ground that the cane gets stuck on was actually made of styrofoam), Wonka collapses forward into a somersault and the crowd applauds. When asked why he wanted to do it, Gene stated that "No one will know if I'm lying or telling the truth." In other words, Wonka's somersault is supposed to be a foreshadow of Wonka's mysterious and unpredictable demeanor throughout the film. We don't know if we should trust him, we don't know if he was being honest or faking it the whole time.
"I am now telling the computer *exactly* what it can do with a lifetime's supply of chocolate" makes me laugh every time.
During the creepy tunnel scene, the actors beside Wilder didn’t know about the creepy song. They legitimately thought he was going mad from being stuck in a claustrophobic set for so long, so their reactions of fear are all genuine
Yes, Willie Wonka has a delightfully dark side. He knows horrible children are going to do horrible things and he lets them do it. 😂😂
Whereas in the book, he actually is trying to stop them and panicking about their upcoming fates.
I always took the half-objects to be Wonka's adult side. They're all in his office, a place of business, and aside from being half, they're all ordinary objects that you might find in a businessman's workplace. The missing half is the wonder of childhood. In here, he's an adult, and he doesn't really feel completely himself, but in the rest of the factory, it's pure imagination.
I think I remember hearing somewhere that they just cut the objects in half to be weird, and I'm probably reading into it, but I like my interpretation better whatever the case.
My favorite line of them all is Willy Wonka's savage moment: "(BLANDLY) help. police. murder." 🤣 Also, that was a real chicken getting beheaded at a farm in the tunnel sequence... at least the overwhelming psychedelic visuals prevent blood from being visible.
Fun fact #1:
The reaction to the sweets/chocolate river room was real. Noone knew what it looked like
Fun Fact #2:
All The actors are phenomenal because apparently the chocolate river was absolutely horrible smelling. It was a mixture of water, real chocolate and cream. And the cream ended going bad causing the whole room to smell rancid.
Fun Fact#3:
The tunnel scene was technically improvised. The only ones who knew what was going happen was gene wilder and the director. So their terrified reactions are extremely genuine.
Fun Fact#4:
The scene where everyone is being washed was extremely problematic. The bubbles caused a horrible rash & reaction to all the actors and they had to halt filming until everyone got better
The "bubbles" from the Wonkamobile were fire extinguisher fluid. Hazardous stuff.
The kid who played Augustus didn't speak a word of English which is why he didn't have a lot of lines and had a translator with him on set. The line that he had the most difficulty with was "It's gonna cost him a fortune in fudge"
TBH, I prefer Johnny Depp’s version of the Chocolate Room with the real chocolate river. Much more realistic.
The reason for the rashes caused by the bubbles is because it’s the same stuff that’s inside fire extinguishers
@@samalberino669 thanks for clarifying 🤗
Gene Wilder gave that speech in the tunnel completely off the cuff. The rest of the cast honestly thought he might've been losing his mind.
Charlie's reaction to Wonkas outburst in his office is real. The director forbade Gene from telling him about this scene beforehand, and Gene really wanted to, because he felt so bad.
This movie literally made everyone obsessed with Chocolate
Not me, thanks
CHOCOLATEEE
@@TimotheeReacts nice spongebob reference
The movie was filmed in Germany and the factory was a power plant. The reason why two of Charlie's grandparents didn't talk was because they didn't speak English.
Fun facts:
Willy Wonka’s entrance was Gene Wilder’s idea. He did it as a subtle way to show that you can’t trust everything you first perceive with wonka
When everyone walks into the candy room for the first time their reactions are the true first reactions of the actors. The set builders purposely did not let the actors in before the shot to get their true reactions
The horror tunnel scene with Willy Wonka singing was completely improved by Gene Wilder
The actress that played Veruca Salt sang the “I want it now” song on her 13th birthday
It really is counterproductive to compare the two.
They're based on the same book, but they each put their own angle on it, and excell at different aspects!
Yah agree 100%. But you know it’s soo easy to compare them when they are based on the same source material
My favorite song in the whole movie is "Pure Imagination". Gene Wilder was supremely talented as an actor and a singer. That song encompasses that.
This movie is Charlie's only acting credit. After he finished, he pursued a career as a veterinarian.
Charlie also actually didn't have a script for his character, so he just read the book.
Peter Ostrum
@@goodowner5000 I know. I just used their characters names to save time.
@@videohistory722 I think I remember his name because he was such a sincere, natural child actor...I couldn't believe this was his only credit- but what an ONLY credit to have, a film Classic, loved by millions.
There was actually supposed to be a sequel based off the book sequel, but because Roald hated this movie so much, he refused to let them touch it.
I use to call my much younger sister Veruca she was and kinda still spoiled rotten. She never knew why until she was 17 and we had a movie night with this as my choice. The look on her face! Literally had me camera ready and it’s my screensaver now 8 years later!
Fun Fact: Wonka's (Gene Wilders) creepy/random singing in the tunnel on the boat was improvised and the rest of the cast on the boat were actually scared of him and that was allegedly there initial reaction!
This movie came out a month before I was born. So I literally can not think of a time without it.
I'm pretty sure the scream was Mike's mom after the chocolate bar vanished. 😂
After reading the book, I actually found the Tim Burton movie to be more accurate to the strange and almost creepy vibes in the book. But this version has much more charm and wonder so it’s the version I like the best. Even if I find one or two songs to be a little too long.
Who cares! The remake has no heart. I prefer the original. Gene Wilder is a better Wonka.
AS someone who HASN'T read the book, the original is just a much better movie, but I love Johnny Depp and appreciate Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for what it is and keeping true to the book.
I read the book as well and Johnny Depp was definitely the wrong choice,Roald Dahl originally wanted Spike Milligan for the part of Willy Wonka but I can’t imagine anyone better than Gene Wilder as Wonka.
I separate the book and movies. I know its source material but I think its better to separate them so each of enjoyable on their own merit. Still not a fan of the depp one (I know that's sacrilege right now as everyone loves depp at the moment)
I strongly disagree with the people that say Johnny Depp’s portrayal was bad. I thought his portrayal was way better and more faithful to the book than the original; he wasn’t the wrong choice, since he is very talented at portraying any character with different personalities, accents, and voices. This version was suppose to have creepy vibes like from the book. The people who hates “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” probably don’t know the point of the book. Even the author who wrote the book didn’t like the original and preferred Tim Burton’s version. I’m not saying that the original one was bad, I think it was really good, but I still prefer Johnny Depp’s version, and also, because I grew up watching it. I’m gonna say this: sometimes original versions can probably be beaten. However, if you guys do like the original, is it really illegal to like the other version, as well, for different reasons?
“YOU LOSE! Good DAY Sir!”
Hair flying in all weird directions 😅😂
Gene Wilder was so awesome
20:48 Veruca has a cut on her knee in this scene. In an earlier take, she smashed that thing on the rock thinking it was fake, and didn't realize it was a real one. So she scraped her knee.
Both movies had an added b-plot that wasn’t in the book: This had the Slugworth test, while the Tim Burton version had the backstory with Wonka’s father.
And of course, great casting choice by putting Christopher Lee as Wonka's dentist father. That too, was genius.
There was a few b plots or side stories in Charlie's version, like one I dont much care for is the Prince story, it makes the least since and has no added value to the movie. The reason I feel this was is for a few reasons, 1 Wonka closes his Chocolate factory because with everyone stealing his secrets he will be Ruined, yet if a prince not only paid you to make a giant castle of chocolate once but was going to pay for a second one they your finances are pretty well secured for a hot minute. Also he can make an Icecream that won't melt while staying in the hot sun but he can't make chocolate that will do the same? And lastly your telling me Wonka built that whole thing with the intention on it being eaten yet the prince planned to live in it? So your telling me in all of these months of construction neither of them mentioned to the other the expected intention for the castle upon completion?
@@Yugioh420 Okay, but that story was in the book.
@@Heroshii15 still don't make any since, didn't say it didn't belong in the movie just said it made no since

I always tear up when I hear Charlie say "I bet those golden tickets make the chocolate taste terrible." It's an instant tear-jerker for me not because it's innately sad that Charlie didn't get the golden ticket but because when Charlie and Grandpa Joe are faced with another moment of crushed hopes, Charlie tries to lighten the mood and put a positive spin on a sad situation. It hits even harder because Charlie isn't saying "At least we have the chocolate"--that's just looking at the glass half full. The dialogue hits harder because Charlie is poking a hole in the crushed hope, saying that the golden ticket's presence (while it would allow them to go on a fantastic tour) would have ruined the simple pleasure chocolate brings. This observation shrugs off the crushed hope in order to soften the blow of not getting what he wanted and to cheer up Grandpa Joe in the same breath. It just gets more painful when Grandpa Joe sets aside the chocolate and brings Charlie into a loving hug. Grandpa Joe is obviously crushed that Charlie can't have what he wants, and he feels that Charlie deserves the golden ticket and the world along with it. I'm sure he's pained even more that Charlie doesn't show anger or hurt or any kind of disappointment whatsoever. I know that if my four-year-old niece and I were in the same situation, I'd have to give her a firm hug and bite the inside of my mouth to keep from crying.
This tiny scene gives the characters such depth and really goes for the emotional kill if you think about it for more than a second. It's a fantastic example of Show, Don't Tell.
Classic. That’s all I can say 😅 right up there with “The Wizard of Oz”
I honestly prefer this version of the film. Fun facts: They cast actual little people to play the oompa loompas. Also, the scene on the boat where Wonka starts singing, then starts to yell? That was unscripted and nobody expected it. So everyone screaming in terror was a real reaction XD
There is a theory that he got arid of the factory because around this time OSHA was starting up and he had TONS of safety violations and he wanted to get out before that happened
Wonka’s sarcastic warnings are his way of keeping good with his side of the contract. If he were sued he can just say, “I warned the kids not to do it.” and he’d basically be cleared of the charges because he did, though in a sadistic way, warn the kids not to misbehave and not to touch his stuff without his permission.
Note, whenever you get around to the 2005 movie is that it ISN’T a remake/reboot, merely ANOTHER adaptation of the book.
The actor that was the school teacher in this guest starred on that 70s show as fez music teacher the musical episode
The "Not till you're 12 son." line took over 14 takes.
Watching this movie on VHS was one of few movies that made me happy that i didn’t become a spoiled brat, an a-hole, or a Fat A- lol. My favorite was the chocolate room because i wanted to try each thing that was edible.
In the Tim Burton film, you don't see Charlie in school, and that film also focuses more on Wonka's backstory than this one does. In spite of the Tim Burton film being called Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, it focuses more on Wonka, and this film focuses more on Charlie.
Please keep in mind this is adapting a book from the 1960s. This is still far more detailed than the book in some respects, mainly before entering the factory and the subplot where Mr Wonka sent out a man pretending to be Slugworth to tempt the kids, but it is sad the tech only went so far - the demises of the kids is something the 2005 movie did better.
Sammy Davis actually wanted to play the candy store owner, but they said no, because they thought a star in it would take away from the movie.
Gene Wilder demanded the limping roll at the beginning or he wouldn’t do the movie. He said he wanted to do that as a way to establish right away that you can’t tell if he’s is lying or not. Just to instantly make his a suspicious character.
Love your reaction and fun fact The stars of "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" had some understanding of what was to come for the boat scene, but they weren't prepared for the intensity of Wilder's delivery. The lack of forewarning meant that the actors, child and adult alike, were all genuinely just as terrified, shocked, and unnerved as audiences continue to be half a century later.
Everything in Wonka's office is cut in half: half a desk, half a sink, half a safe, half a bust, etc.The director, Mel Stuart, answered this in his book Pure Imagination: The Making of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, where he said:
" ...the reason everything in Willy's office is cut in half was because Stuart couldn't bear the thought of - after having gone through all the whimsical and creative rooms in the factory - ending the movie in an ordinary office. Everything was cut in half to make the room look more Wonka-esque."
There was a lot of terrifying moments in the original book.
I love the Umpa Lumpa songs in Tim Burton's version and grandpa Joe's backstory with Wonka, but otherwise I love this movie more. I like that this Charlie isn't a perfect angel, he breaks the rules and makes a fuss over not really having a chance to win to his mom. Gene Wilder does a fantastic job at being the embodiment of child wonder yet has that air of unnerving apathy to the things that happen to the children.
*Oompa Loompa
The Oompa Loompa songs in the Tim Burton version were directly taken from the original novel.
Mr. Salt: Ladies first. Meaning my Veruca.
Grandpa Joe: If she's a lady, I'm a vermicious knish.
I like both, but Wilder's is my favourite, he is just captivating in the movie in the most eccentric of ways, plus he's snarky as hell the amount of sarcasm he dishes out is great
They did actually make Wonka bars in promotion of both movies, but the Wilder movie ones were recalled, the Depp ones were pretty nice as well and they had 5 golden tickets worth $10000 hidden among them.
As for this movie, it was the first use of 'The Candy Man' song, and Wonka's first scene was requested specifically by Wilder. Sadly, much like PT Travers and Mary Poppins, Roald Dahl didn't like the movie's deviation from his book, he also didn't like that his casting choice for Wonka, Spike Mulligan, wasn't selected. But it still remains a classic.
I don’t know about the Wonka Bar recall (I assume that’s a plain chocolate one), but they sold the Willy Wonka Super Skrunch Bar for years. They were my favorite candy bar as a kid growing up in the 70s.
I thought the movie was named to promote Wonka bars, and they were recalled? Wow. A lot of people seem to have no idea that Dahl called it Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and the book was the TRUE original.
@@Y_.R yeah the plain Wonka Bar was made by Quaker Oats (who funded the movie) but was recalled due to a production problem. The Willy Wonka Candy Company then opened by the Sunmark Corporation, which'd then be bought by Nestle in the 80s
I remember getting them at Walgreens maybe 12 years ago. They were so good. Too bad they stopped selling them.
The text on screen was created by a technique called Scsnimate, an early cgi program. The sadness you see on Eonka's face, I think, is connected to the real reason for the tour. He'll be leaving this fantastic world he created, and will undoubtedly miss it.
The girl who played Veruca was actually poor and this helped her family
The movie title was changed from the books title to promote a candy bar they were coming out with, called Wonka. Only problem: it went belly up very quickly because it kept melting too fast, even when it was already inside the wrapper. And then Wonka was bought by Nestle, which gave us the candy line we know and love today.
Aw, really? I would've loved to try it!
@@stephanniemorin you can! Nestle still has the Wonka line!
@@videohistory722 Wow!
17:49 FUN FACT: When Gene Wilder accepted the role as Willy Wonka, he had only one condition: to have an entrance where he limps to the audience, falls and does a somersault. Director Mel Stuart asked "What do you want to do that for?", Wilder replied, "From that point on, no one will know if I'm lying or telling the truth".
This will always be one of my favorite movies; It's got this sense of mystery yet wonder at the same time; and Gene Wilder was a great guy and I was so heartbroken when I learned he died
FINALLY!!! A movie 4 old folk!😂 This, The Wizard of Oz, & The Sound of Music were like the big 3 yearly movie events in the '70's b4 vcrs & cable tv! They came on every yr. Know u had 2 like, but will have 2 catch it n a bit! Thanx 4 what u do, brother! The positive energy is a Blessing to the world!🙏 Every little bit helps, my man! See ya!✌😎❤
The whole goose scene was done on Veruca's birthday. After they finished, they gave her a golden egg for her birthday. She had it for quite a while before she had to get rid of it because it went bad.
The golden eggs are in fact made out of real chocolate.
Veruca reminds me of Courtney Hadwin when she was on America's got talent.
I watch both versions depending on the mood and I think that each of them was able to convey certain thoughts, even if the message of this film is closer to the original source.
17:48, all improvised by Gene Wilder himself here as in he refused to take the role unless he was able to do his take how Wonka would reveal himself to the world. Genius!!!
Both versions are amazing. I enjoy both of them for different reasons. My favorite part of this one is the cutscenes of people trying to find the tickets. I was never really a fan of this being a musical though.
Fun fact: Neslie actually made a line of chocolates to capitalize on this film, but the recipe used was found to melt faster than other brands, and it was discontinued shortly afterwards.
I remember in the late 90's early 00's they had a Wonka Bar. It was chocolate coated graham cracker.
3rd grade, before school, my mom used to stop at a gas station to get some things. I used to buy the drinks in the little wax things and a Wonka donut.
I had a crush on Veruca when I was a kid, but I was so torn because she was a terrible person. So as a kid this movie taught me the concept of needing a girlfriend who was a decent person, not just cute 😆.
To me and I'm sure many others, this film is an excellent example of how being true to the source material isn't always the best way to go. Most people would agree that this original film version is the best of the two major adaptations, and I agree. Not to say I didn't like the Tim Burton one, I just like it in a very different way, but this one, particularly with Gene Wilder's absolutely amazing performance as Wonka, just has something uniquely special, wimsical, and purely magical about it. That's my say on the matter. Gene will always BE Willy Wonka. May he rest in peace.
Man this movie is so fun. And the music is so unforgivable. How have you not watched this movie before? Also rip Gene Wilder
Much much older movie than I am! I’ve seen the Tim Burton version but never this
@@TimotheeReacts you gotta watch more old movies
@@TimotheeReacts stranger things 2
You mean unforgettable right?
@@MasonJWMyers yes thank you
The kids reaction to seeing the chocolate
Room is genuine, they wanted a real reaction so the kids were never allowed to see it until that moment being their first time witnessing it
WOOO! Watching the og wonka!! I haven’t seen this one myself actually but adore the tim burton version so much and Johnny Depp’s performance 😄
I always enjoyed telling my friends "You lose! Good Day Sir!" during arguments or playing video games.
I would love to see You watching "The Neverending Story"!
33:49 The foam used to spurt out in this scene was made from basic fire extinguishers. But the foam was a potent skin irritant, so after shooting the scene, the actors were left in considerable discomfort when their skin puffed up and reportedly required several days to receive medical treatment and recovery.
Mr Wonka said 'I wouldn't do that' to Violet and 'my chocolate must never be touched by human hands' to Augustus, 'she can't have one, they're not for sale' about Veruca, and 'it may have some nasty results' to Mike and they all ignored him, what else can he do?
What's the point is saying 'stop don't come back' with any enthusiasm when they won't listen to him anyhow? I mean if he'd said it loudly and more enthusiastically do you think that would've made a difference?
I wanna say, as someone who owns a copy of both, each one has it strengths and weaknesses but, people love both for different reasons. People love this one because of the nostalgia and charm of it and, people love the Tim Burton one because of the set design and the more modern take. So I'm going to give you reason watch both.
Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory: the boat scene
Charlie and the chocolate factory: The up and out scene
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory 2005: Grandpa Joe says the glass elevator will smash into 1000 pieces, Willy Wonka laughs half excitedly, half maniacally
Willy Wonda and the Chocolate Factory 1972: Grandpa Joe says the glass elevator will break into 1000 pieces, Willy Wonka says 'Probably'.
Charle and the Chocolate Factory book: Grandpa Joe says the glass elevator will break into 1000 pieces, Willy Wonka says in a very cheerful voice: "Well I suppose it might, but it's pretty thick glass."
In the moral world of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, there is no ambiguity: children are either bad or good. Charlie is good precisely because he has no discernable vices. The bad children are easy to spot because they are the embodiment of their vices.
Theft? The fizzy drink his grandfather stole and he drank.
The boat scene definitely scared me as a kid but now it’s my favorite scene.
I was 4 years old when this movie came out. This movie was indicative of "children's" movies and TV shows at the time. Just in case you wonder why Generation X is the way we are.
Gene wilder actually requested that scene with the cane and the somersolt, because from then on you could never tell if wonka was lying or telling the truth
I love this version so much. Its has such a sense of wonder and warmth and magic. It has soul and heart. The remake is so cold and soulless. The characters are so bland and robotic and that sense of wonder is absent. Also, I am a huge chocolate lover and Pure Imagination is one of my favorite songs of all time. This movie has a great message to kids about imagination and how dreamers make the world such a magical place.
My eyes literally went straight to the boat scene when you said "I think it's gonna be lighter"
Boy oh boy your in for a treat💜😂
My wish was that this factory was real!
this movie was one of my favorites growing up! such a classic and Gene Wilder will always be my Willy Wonka. nothing against Johnny Depp personally but his Wonka just creeped me out lol though I will admit, as a teacher who reads the source material to her Grade 4 students every year, the Tim Burton movie is closer to the book. there's just something charming about the practical effects. also, in Wonka's defense, he did tell all the kids in earnest not to do what they did at first and they refused to listen. what else could he do? plus their parents were there; not his responsibility after that. ❤️
Here are a few things about this movie:
-The kids reactions to Wonka's fall was genuine. Gene Wilder wanted to create some shock value to make his character feel unpredictable. In the part where he starts yelling at Charlie, the kid had no idea that was gonna happen. However he still play the role on as a sweet kid.
-I always thought the chocolate river was fake, but it actually was real. However, the cream that they put in had turned and started to smell. Wouldn't be surprised that the kid that played Augustus was no longer fond of chocolate after that
-The girl that played Violet stopped chewing gum after this movie. Apparently she got multiple cavities after chewing so much gum. Nearly lost all of her teeth
-The white foam everyone gets covered with in the Wonka Mobile was detergent and caused some of the actors to have a bad skin reaction
-Both girls had bit of a crush on the kid that played Charlie. Even argued over who’d sit next to him in the boat scene. Can’t imagine how surprised they were when he came out.
This movie came out the year I was born. Gene Wilder is great as Willy Wonka. I love Charlie & his grandpa singing together & the "Candyman" song, but "Pure Imagination" is my favorite song.
I like the subtle pun they slipped in once they entered the factory. "Once your outer vestments are well in hand..." and the coat/hat racks were actual hands.
Also, the boat scene was fun because only Gene Wilder really knew what was coming, everyone else was clueless. In fact, there were so unawares, they legitimately though he had gone insane right then and there.
Now that you have seen both the original Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory and a year ago, Snowpiercer, it is time to check out Why Snowpiercer is a sequel to Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory from Rhino Stew. It will blow your mind, lol!
Did you see the girl during the opening song get smacked in the chin by the counter? 😂 It's funny, but I hope she wasn't left with a permanent scar
I LOVE this movie! It's one of my favorite movies - so much humor.....thanks for watching this one! I still use this line from the movie: "You might want to open your mouth a little wider when you speak"
The 1964 book had a Sequel - "Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator" (1972). Presumably it picks up where this story ends with them flying away in that glass elevator.
Thanks, Timothée! 🍫🍬🍭 I really love this one... and I vividly recall seeing it for the first time (on television).
I think the Half Room is supposed to represent how Wonka "isn't all there". He knows he's getting older and his mind is starting to go with him. He wanted to find his successor before there was nothing left of himself
This was actually a stylistic choice by rhe director, because he couldn't bear the thought of it just being a normal office.
This was one of the few movies that we had on VCR growing up, and watching this reminds me of how much my Mum loved the movie. She used to reference it all the time. Makes me miss her even more but in a nice way.
RIP Denise Nickerson who played Violet 1957-2019
The tunnel scene always scared the heck out of me, and it still does.
41:40, I can’t speak for everyone else but for me, it’s because the Tim Burton version began by setting up a story that would be a lot closer to the book but then threw that part away to make it all about Willy Wonka’s origin story instead.
The Tim Burton version may be more accurate to the book, I still prefer this original one. Mainly as it has a lot of mystery and wonder to it. It gives off a wonderful message of if you're good and true to yourself, one day you'll get your reward. Yet one of the main important factors that made this movie work out so well, in my opinion, is Willy Wonka and Charlie. The character portrayed in this version seemed to pull it off better.
In the Tim Burton version, Willy Wonka just seemed like a kid trapped in an adult's body, which can be answered through his backstory, but It just didn't work for me and his character just came off as annoying. When it came to Charlie in that version, i'm sorry, but the kid was a freaking saint. I know when people grow up poor it gives them a different perspective on life and makes them kinder and generous to others, but the way Charlie does things just makes him one dimensional. He's not interesting or engaging, which hurts the story as you can't relate to him.
Now in the original movie, the way Willy Wonka was portrayed made it seems like he had an agenda planned. But with his quotes, and comments it made him so unpredictable that you couldn't guess what he was thinking or what was coming next, which made us engage more with him. Plus some of his quotes are iconic and are thought provoking these days. Now with Charlie, he was more of a 3 dimensional character. Despite being poor he had various emotions in this movie. Case and point in the beginning after the first song, where we see Charlie looking inside the store, a look of wanting to be like them, yet he's working to help support his family. He was excited when the contest started, he was sad when he overheard that the contest was over, and he was even greedy when he said he wanted it more than anyone. It was alright for him to have these emotions because he's just a kid, and we can relate more to that because we were like that when we were young. This version of Charlie was better for all these reasons because he was a more fleshed out character.
Yet one thing I liked about this movie is the final test that Charlie had to go through, which made sense. Wonka really had to push Charlie over the edge to see if he could be trusted. If you were going to give over your factory to someone you need to know if they can be trusted with your secrets even though you were cruel to them. Not only that but this test really tested Charlie's innocence. Meeting your idol and having him blow up at you, he needed to decide whether to give up a chance to help his family, over not betraying someone who blew up at you. This is some factors which made me like this version better.
HISHE stated that the ending should be after the creepy tunnel, everyone decided to walk out because they were so freaked out. Wonka: Whose bright idea was it to put a scary tunnel in there in the first place? (Remembers when he suggested it during a chocolate hangover).
Fun Fact - the photo of the man from Paraguay who supposedly had won the fifth Golden Ticket was Martin Bormann, Hitler's personal secretary (who had run off to Paraguay to escape prosecution during the war.)
Remember that the Oompa Loompa's are the equivalent of the Greek chorus. They sing the lesson in between the acts.
The excitement at getting a golden ticket is the lifetime supply of chocolate
Willy Wonka is a classic
I’m 51 years old! This is a true classic. Love your reactions. Keep up the good work. 💕💕😎
