None of the actors had seen the Candy room, it was their real reactions seeing it for the first time. Gene Wilder nailed the roll as Willy Wonka and I have always considered him as the real Willy Wonka. RIP Gene Wilder
He is the Only Wonka I recognize
I think both movies are good in their own ways, but nothing beats the original 👍🏼🔥
Gene Wilder was the best. Had so many fantastic roles. Willy Wonka, Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, The Producers, etc, etc..
Johnny Depp portrayal is more accurate to the character in the book.
@@MikeJ2023we really dont care
“We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of the dreams” That still gets me.
It's a quotation from the 1873 poem, "Ode," by Arthur O'Shaughnessy.
It's a description of an Irish sheen, storyteller or bard.
Nothing less by Living Legends 🙌
I'm so glad you ladies enjoyed this. As someone who is older and grew up with this version of Willy Wonka, it is by far the best version. Wonderful acting, wonderful life lessons. So glad you loved it.
😊agreed
The originals always are. IMO I haven't seen the Depp version.
@@jakerazmataz852 You didn't miss anything.
@@kurtfrancis4621 agreed
I'm 60 years old and the ending always bring a tear to my eye. Gene Wilder will always be THE Willy Wonka. RIP.
I remember getting my allowance which was 2.00$ and I paid 25 cents to see this masterpiece. The music, the characters, and magic made it unforgettable. Now my Grandson watches it and he knows all of the songs!
What an awesome and sweet comment!
I have always loved Gene Wilder's singing in this movie. He's almost hypnotic in this role.
This movie has so much heart and kindness in it. Charlie is the hero of this movie!
Fun fact, the guy who played Charlie - Peter Ostrum - never did any other movie! He enjoyed the experience but decided acting wasn't for him. He misses it sometimes but still thinks he made the right decision. He became a veterinarian!
And he really loved Gene Wilder, said he took him under his wing (since he was new to film acting). He said that even though they never met again after the film was done, Wilder's death was "like losing a parent".
@NoriMori1992 Gene Wilder was such a warm-hearted paternal man, it's a real shame he never got to be a dad because I think he would have been a really good one.
Like the child actress who did such a great job in Aliens. She didn't care for Hollywood and followed her dream of being a teacher.
I like stories about people not being swayed by the glitz.😁
Fun Fact: Gene Wilder said he would only do the movie if they added the scene where he walks out with a limp and a cane and then tips over like he’s about to fall and does a perfect somersault. The Director asked why and wilder said “because from that moment on nobody will know for sure if I’m lying or I’m telling the truth”.
This is by far my favorite version. Johnny Depp is a great actor, but this movie is so pure and Gene Wilder was fantastic in it... It's what the world needs to see now and then. So rewatchable.
They are different movies with different aims, and they are both great in achieving what they were after. Comparisons are a bit absurd.
@@Dacre1000 If they wanted to make a different film, then they could have... idk... made it like a sequel instead of having the same characters (for the most part). Like, i think it would have been better if they made either a prequel showing Wonka's beginning as a major candy manufacturer (which is touched on in the remake) or as a sequel where Charlie is looking for a successor as Wonka did before... That way they are both clearly different films and different life lessons... not a rehashing under a new name.
They literally kept the blueberry girl even if they made her like a mini-me of her mom (with her mom being the one she brought with her instead of her dad)
The one, the only, and the original in my mind. RIP Gene Wilder. You brought everything I pictured that came with the role and devoted such time in your years to bringing smiles and laughter to millions.
“It’s your husband’s life or your case of Wonka bars!”
“….How long do I have to think it over?”
Kidnappers: "Um . . . Your wife said she has to think about it."
Husband: "WHAT?! That Wonka loving beeyotch!!!"
That part kills me every time
And what’s funny is they probably let him go afterwards.
Kidnappers: Uh… no hard feelings?
Mr. Curtis: Uh… yeah sure.
A BRUH moment
This version is so much better than the Tim Burton remake. Gene Wilder will always be Willy Wonka to me.
This was 1000 times better
IKR. Those that say that the johney depp one is better than this needs to STOP. This is THE willy wonka!!😊😊😊
But not good enough to get a sequel from the author
@@MrMagicianJr neither one got a sequel and neither one needed to, are you slow slow or just slow?
@@MrMagicianJr en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_and_the_Great_Glass_Elevator
This movie has the kind of heart you just don't find today. The entire cast are superb.
29:04 Great to to see Lia and Viki's contented smiles over this classic! Even better to hear that they both preferred this older version of the story over the newer one - even though this film came out long, long before they were ever born.
Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory with johnny Depp is stupid imo and it makes no sense whatsoever.
I tried watching it and got bored of it and that wasn't even half way through. You can't beat the old classic " Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory" with Gene Wilder, that's the original classic and by far the best one.
I grew up watching Gene Wilder play Willy Wonka and brings back great childhood memories. The homies girls are only a couple of years or so younger than me.
I know my favourite homie girl that imo is real Marriage material (that I would happily date aswell as definitely marry) , I'm talking about Ellie is now 30 and I'm 34 , so I know that the homie girls are not far off being born when " Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory" was released here in England, UK. Just a couple of years or so from it.
Absolutely love this movie. Gene Wilder was a brilliant man. If y’all haven’t done it already because of how great the song is, please react to one or two other versions of Pure Imagination?
I grew up with this, and I always thought it better than the Johnny Depp version.
Ladies, loved your reactions. This has been one of my favorites for years. I'm nearly 60 and it still gets to me. Not that I don't enjoy Tim Burton's version as well, but the original has a lot more heart. As a kid I wondered why Charlie won even though he also broke a "rule". Then I realized it was his grandfather's idea, and he was just following his lead.
yeah, if you watch carefully, you see that Grandpa Joe is not exactly an upstanding character, "Who cares where it came from?" with the bread, for example.
Charlie won because he kept his promise to never tell another living soul about the gobstopper by giving it back and eliminating the temptation to do it in the future, thus remaining an honest loving child.
Yes, Charlie and his Grandpa Joe did break a "rule." Obviously, that wasn't what Wonka's test was about. All five of the kids broke a rule or disobeyed Wonka's instructions. The test was more about: 'How do you respond when you come up short - when you're faced with the consequences of having broken a rule? How do you attempt to fix your mistakes?
Another angle: Wonka set up the whole situation as a rigged game from the beginning: Having them sign a contract that he knew no one would read... then surround the visitors with so much temptation that probably all of them would do something. Then, yell at Charlie and pretend to be a dick. Will you take the high ground, as Charlie did, or would you default towards, "getting even" as Grandpa Joe did? If Charlie and Grandpa Joe had never 'stolen' the fizzy lifting drinks, Willy Wonka would have yelled at Charlie on the pretext that they had violated some other rule. Would Charlie do the right thing, even if he (Charlie) reasonably felt that he (Charlie) had been treated unfairly?
When it really counted, Charlie exhibited not just honesty, but responsibility as well.
"Important for adults, mostly for adults.
Because we forget how to live, we forget our imagination; our pureness."
Good insight there. 😊
12:04 pause it! Charlie didn’t need no chocolate, look at those teeth! 😂😭😭
An Iconic Masterpiece! Everything about Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory is "pure imagination". A truly well-made film that the whole family can enjoy over and over again. I've enjoyed this film ever I was young and to this day, I still enjoy it, even though I rather watch the remake but still a great film.
Fun fact: Denise Nickerson(Violet) and Julie Dawn Cole(Veruca) both had a crush on Peter Ostrum(Charlie). While off set, the two girls would take turns each day for one of them to hang out with Ostrum. Nickerson would even get embarrassed about having to do the nose-picking bit for the boat scene in front of Ostrum.
I loved both of your reactions. This is from my childhood and I’ve always loved it, and it’s nice to see young people be able to watch it. Great reaction as always.
I hope you will also consider reacting to Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968). It is a fantastical children's story with wonderful musical numbers and based upon the novel by Ian Flemming, creator of James Bond 007. It was one of the annual movies that played on television during my childhood, similar to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory or The Wizard of Oz.
Yep, I love that movie too🤗
I'm sure they would like "Chitty Chtty Bang Bang."
In one of the "making of" videos they talk about the end of the movie. After Wonka says he will get factory and his family can now move in grandpa yells "yippie!". It wasn't working so they took a break and called the writer who was now on vacation. He was at a remote lake with only a community phone which he happened to be near when it rang. They said a new line was needed for the ending and on the spot he said the line,"do you know what happened to the boy.. " they loved it and immediately shot that ending.
This movie ranked at #74 in the 100 scariest movie moments on Bravo
@coreyhendricks9490 Which you can find in its entirety on my "Horror" playlist.
That boat ride is still unnerving and trippy.
Yes. And number 1 was the Care Bears Movie. Go figure.
@@Dacre1000
Actual Lee: It was "Jaws" (1975)
"Keep your children short on pocket change, but long on hugs" - Robert A. Heinlein
This is a beautiful film that straddles the line of "family friendly" in a way most films given that distinction are not these days - it's a very emotional film for me now, so full of nostalgia.
Knowing that you appreciate musicals, may I recommend (if any of the Homies haven't already seen it) the 1968 film "Oliver!", a musical adaptation of Charles Dickens' "Oliver Twist", which has some fantastic acting and great musical numbers in it. Like this movie, the main character is something of a soft, loving heart in a harsh world and I think you'll enjoy it.
Great tunes and sets in Oliver. It did win best picture btw.
@@vincentschmitt7597 As well as five other Oscars.
Maybe Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
This is the first -- and only? -- movie I can remember giving me nightmares. Those Oompa Loompas and their spooky songs about misbehaving children made quite an impression!
All the Romanian/Bulgarian reactors are such old souls, down to earth, real people with good valves(and all the women are so beautiful), I love their reactions. I also notice when older music is in the movie they know every tune.
Hello to the beautiful Vicki & the gorgeous Lia!🙂This is still the very best Willy Wonka film IMO!!!🏆🏆🏆🏆It is over 50 years old, and is still a classic film that holds up today!!! Great reactions to this very fine film with a moral compass, Viki & Lia!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Glad you got to enjoy this version.. Tim Burton's version with Johnny Depp is good, and Johnny is masterful as always in bringing that slightly warped odd mind to the character.. But this version and Gene will forever be the most beloved Wonka of generations, he has so much heart and joy along with that slightly warped view of the world that brings his candies their life... My family watches this every year during the holidays at the end of the year, it's kind of a tradition and everyone including the children all love it... It always cracks me up when he berates the kids for their behavior with that detached meh emotion .."no, stop, don't do that".. just reciting the words with no feeling to them.. . hehehehehe
Yeah, his deadpan delivery there is great. 😆
It just adds to the irony, he knows they wouldn't listen anyway.😂
"Stop. Dont. Come back."
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I love this movie so much! 💘💗🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
That moment where Charlie realises there's one more Golden Ticket in the world up to the point the woman grabs his arm seeing he's got it beats the new movie by a hundred miles, the build up of the music is everything along with him slowly opening the bar of chocolate, and his reaction.
What’s so funny about that scene is that the child actor who play Augustus actually was hungry he hadn’t eaten anything for a long time. So in that scene when he said that line “Let Me In I’m Starving” that was how he was truly feeling. It’s amazing what directors and producers do to get child stars to say their lines and have it come across as real.
Gene Wilder (Willy Wonka) was such a sweet man. There's some interviews with him about this movie floating about. In one he talks about the little boy who plays Charlie and how sweet he was. He said he wanted to sit down and talk to him about having to yell at him before they filmed that scene so he wouldn't be afraid. Of course he couldn't because that would have potentially ruined the child's acting in that scene, but it broke his heart to have too yell at the sweet little boy.
She did not get the basic idea! It is about IMAGINATON. When Wonka threw a coat into a recipe after he said it was too cold, the idea was that warm clothing would reverse the temperature of the mixture!
I saw this a child and it was so magical. Charlie in real life became a veterinarian for farm animals.
Fun fact: Roald Dahl absolutely hated this movie lol
He didn't want any more or his books to be adapted after this
Im 28 and I was used to see this version on television before the Tim Burton's one be released, and for me there's no comparison, this one is soooooooooo much better!
Yes, it's aged, but I love it !
I grew up on this. The 1971 film was the definitive version, right there.
This is a childhood favorite of mine. Today this film still gives me Pure Imagination.
Charlie is such a good soul in this movie. The way he wants to share his chocolate and his paycheck with his family hits ya right in the feels.
Sammy Davis, Jr. had a number one hit with the song The Candy Man the year after the movie came out. IMO, though, the best song in the movie is Pure Imagination. That song has been covered by many singers, but none of the recordings has ever reached the heights of The Candy Man.
Please consider watching the 1974 live action version of The Little Prince. Gene Wilder plays a wild fox in it. I think you will really like it since you liked this version of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory so much.
I think Veruca shouldn't have been allowed into the factory because she didn't technically "find" a Golden Ticket. Anyway she got her comeuppance. 😂
This version of the film was supervised by Roald Dahl himself, so it's more in line with the magic of the book and overall message
Oh cool I didn't know that
Possibly there should have been a verse of the Oompa Loompa song directed at Roald Dahl.
Dahl didn't like the finish product nor the uncredited rewrites. I am glad you liked it, but lets keep it real.
RIP GENE WILDER
"The suspense is killing me! I hope it lasts!"
I haven't seen this movie since elementary school.
The door tune lock was not by the Russian composer Rachmaninoff. They put that in there having Mrs Teevee as a know it all to show that sometimes parents don't know everything but will still act like they do.
And she’s supposed to be a teacher. Come to think of it, Mr. Turkentine seemed to not do much more than talk himself in circles when trying to explain something.
Ir's Mozart, I believe.
“We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of dreams.”
The ending gets me every time ...Pure MAGIC
The actor who played Charlie didn’t do anymore acting. He grew up to be a veterinarian. Amazing profession.
The original! 🍫
They did a remake with Johnny Depp, and there’s another one with Timothy Chalemet out December 2023z
CLASSIC MOVIE childhood right here
"We forget how to live. We forget our imagination. Our pureness." Well said! Bravo!
I love how Viki is really channeling Oompa Loompa energy in all orange. That’s commitment.
I met the Veruca Salt actress in 2018 and got to talk to her for a while. She was always my 2nd favorite in the film next Willie of course.
I was glad to find out that Julie Dawn Cole is so much the opposite of Veruca Salt. Especially with that in consideration, she sure did an impressive job portraying a total brat.
@@0okamino She was pretty funny and gave me a few lines from the film. I had to hear her say, 'But daddy, I want an Oompa Loompa now!'
Gene Wilder, who played Willy Wonka in this film, was in many great films including what might be the funniest movie ever made: "The Producers". The ORIGINAL "The Producers" from 1967, not the remake.
A great movie that will also introduce these young ladies to the comedic genius of Zero Mostel.
Gene Wilder should have won an Oscar or at least been nomination he killed this roll.
Honestly, my favorite song in the whole movie is "Pure Imagination". I love the way Gene Wilder sang the lyrics
Also....it's weird to say, but Violet Beauregarde turning into a blueberry gave rise to blueberry inflation fetishism.
I'm watching this episode in Wonka-vision!
Your reactions of pure joy and wonder put a huge smile on my face! ❤
He was putting coats in there because when he tasted whatever it was he was making he said it was “too cold”.
Grampa Joe - in bed for last 20 years
Also grandpa joe - shows up next day at the factory
fun fact, the candy shop owner almost whacked that girl in the face with the counter, she was leaning waaaay back!
Ahhh my day is instantly better when the Homies react
Nothing will ever compare to the original not the Johnny Depp remake and definitely not the book. I hate to admit it I was not a fan of the book. But there’s something about this film that felt more unique and honestly I feel if it wasn’t for gene wilder cast as Willy Wonka I feel like this film would not have been as good as it is without him because he delivered such a fine performance as Willy Wonka. RIP Gene wilder 1933-2016
Gene WIlder is the real Willy Wonka. And I will not demean that honor by acknowledging another. No matter how much I love Johnny Depp. To me Johnny Depp is Captain Jack Sparrow. Not Willy Wonka.
WISH MICHELLE AND ELLIE WERE HERE TO WATCH THIS!
I recommend reacting to James & the Giant Peach(1996). The movie’s based on another one of Roald Dahl’s beloved fantasy novels, so it has similar tropes to Willy Wonka. It’s a mix of both live action and animation.
Don’t forget the Witches.
And Fantastic Mr Fox!
1. I first saw it when I was 10.
2. Ronald Dahl the book author was a well-known LSD user. (you can see why)
3. The Umpa Lumpas told the reverent portion of the story. Anything beyond that would have been unnecessary and overkill
4. I suspect Wonka knew which children would win the tickets (lessons for our behalf) because Slugworth was at the scene almost immediately.
5. Many people (especially women) seem to get a creepy feeling from Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka.
6. This is the only roll Peter Ostrum/Charlie. He's now a veterinarian.
7. After reading the script, Gene Wilder said he would take the role of Willy Wonka under one condition: that he would be allowed to limp, then suddenly somersault in the scene when he first meets the children. When director Mel Stuart asked why, Wilder replied.
that having Wonka do this meant that "from that time on, no one will know what's real and what's not.a" Stuart asked, "If I say no, you won't do the picture?" and Wilder said, "I'm afraid that's the truth."
8. Fun fact: Veruca/Julie Dawn Cole didn't have any adult with her when they went to Germany to film the movie so Gene Wilder himself stepped in to make sure she was taken care of.😎
9. You can get away with anything in a musical.
I love both movies but there is something special about this movie. It reminds me of my childhood more than the newer one.
That box of chocolate her majesty bought would be about 40,000 american dollars today
I met Mike TV and Varucca Salt at a convention a few years ago, we talked about how much we hated the new movie 😄
This is a real classic, one of my favorites of all time! Thanks for bringing this back to me.
You mentioned that you really enjoy Gene Wilder. He's brilliant. You might also consider seeing "Blazing Saddles" and "Young Frankenstein". Both are so much fun! He was also in "Silver Streak" with Richard Pryor; not my cup of tea, but it gets a lot of recommendations. I scanned back through 3 years or so of uploads and did not see reactions to these, so hopefully these recommendations are new to you.
During my scan, I noticed that "The Imitation Game" had a reaction. If you enjoyed that, you might also like "Hidden Figures."
Gene was married to Gilda Radner, one of the inaugural cast of Saturday Night Live. Can you imagine how much fun that household must have been?
Having read the book a ton of times, no doubt that this version stays truer to the spirit of the book. One of my all time favorites!
Not really. Burtons dark humor is far more in line with Dahl´s. They are both their own thing tough.
@@Dacre1000 Gotta disagree with you on that
The style of this movie reminds me very much of Harry Potter. Harry Potter is not identical, but the sense of magic is somewhat similar.
I'm glad you enjoyed this classic film. For some reason, it's hard to get people to watch it. I guess they think "Oh, it's such an old movie, and it's for kids. I don't think it will be any good."
The girl who played Veruca continued acting, but became a psychotherapist.
Great review ladies, your comments are perfect!!❤🙏
One of the best reactions to this movie. It's obvious that English is not your first language, but you nevertheless communicate the essence of this movie as good as anyone else. You nailed it when you said the life lessons taught are for everyone, especially parents. Absolutely loved your reaction. Keep up the good work.😊
The '70s were a different time, but this movie still somehow resonates in a weird way. Also, many quality memes have since spawned.
Great to see you girls react to " The Original Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory"
I do personally think Ellie and Michelle should watch and react to " This , the original proper Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory" aswell though.
Gene Wilder is the Original Willy Wonka.
I Love all you homie girls (especially Ellie 🥰😍😘❤ though) , your all real awsome , cool, genuine people.
Your imagination is a very powerful thing , just like your thoughts are also very powerful too. If you believe in manifesting / manifestation, then What you think , believe and tell yourself is or will be your reality.
I'll second your suggestion about Ellie & Mish watching this version (if they haven't already)! I'm sure they'd love it.
@@gazlator Thank you , I have already recommended it them both aswell as other movies to them on their only fans page. They replied saying that they will watch it eventually , it's on their movies list to watch.
Now I'm just waiting patiently for them to watch and react to it. Thank you though , I appreciate it mate 👍👊.
@@WillS.TheSuperReds. It will be quite the emotional rollercoaster with Ellie, laughing and smiling at the jokes and sweet moments, crying a chocolate river sized number of tears seeing Charlie heartbroken, her eyes bulging with terror at the hard left that is the "tunnel ride" sequence 😱
@@justindenney-hall5875 It will, but that is why I love all them homie girls , but most of all Ellie because she's shows real raw pure emotions and there all really genuine imo , but especially Ellie with the way she reacts and express her emotions when watching and reacting to movies. Ellie is definitely marriage material imo and i would happily comfort and date her, she's also really 🔥 and as soft and cheesy as it sounds , she's cute even when she sheds tears and there rolling down her cheeks, makes me want to comfort her that much more and give her lots of hugs and cuddles When pulling her close and tight in my arms while holding Ellie 🥰😍😘🤗😀.
I LOVE THEM ALL , BUT ELLIE'S MY FAVOURITE.
@@WillS.TheSuperReds. I agree, she is a beautiful woman inside and out🥰💙
Viki loves the bit with Violet inflating haha! Her reaction in both is funny!
When this story was written, people in England did have multiple generations still living in one household and chocolate was still a treat, unlike today were there is just too much of it.
Also these older films where they built sets and had to make things work has a special charm, unlike CGI.
This one is a little ham fisted, but younger viewers could probably follow along more easily.
The songs, lessons, creativity, and humor... far superior to the Tim Burton one. These are the Oompa Loompas I know and love. 💚🧡🤍
Gene Wilder ftw!
I like to imagine when he passed his casket was clear like the Wonkavator... Oompa Loompas dumped bags of sugar to cover the grave... as his burial comes to a close, up through the sugar shoots the Wonkavator coffin into space....
Lia & Viki
As both of you know that later this year in December, prequel, Wonka played by Timothee Chalamet. One of original "Wonka Kids", Peter Ostrum aka Charlie has a cameo in new movie. Possible other "kids" might be in it too. Peter was offer to 5 movie deal after Willy Wonka, but he declined the offer. Because he wanted his childhood. Peter, since 1984 is licensed Doctor of Veterinary medicine. His practice is in New York.
Other "Kid", Veruca Salt played by Julie Dawn Cole. Julie Dawn Cole is total completely different from mean self-centered Veruca.
Both of you reliving my childhood thru your eyes. I am getting very emotional here thinking I was 7 years old.
I'm glad you preferred this older version which is truer to the book, you have good empathy.
With Wonka coming out soon I have no doubt that this movie will still hold up compared to the other 2.
If you like musicals, I’d suggest Oliver! The young actors are fantastic in it. 1968. It won best picture and it deserved it.
I may be a little prejudiced, but I think it's one of the very best movie musicals of all time.
I saw this when I was a kid when it came out. It was pretty fantastic. We'd never even seen anything like it before way way way back then
When people were fainting and barfing in the theaters with The Exorcist.

You guys would love “Bugsy Malone” (1976)
It’s a prohibition era gangster musical with a cast of kids. It really it great fun.
As a child, I had a big crush on Veruca Salt.😂
Gene Wilder aka Willy is Willy Wonka! Gene had a long career in movies until 2005. He died in 2016 at the age of 83.
The actor who played Grandpa, was a Song and Dance man.
This movie is worth it for my favorite childhood movie
Charming reaction, ladies. Gene Wilder was a perfect Wonka. The more recent version has its moments too but they took out the Oompa Loop music. What on earth were they thinking?
