I remember watching the 2005 one and the original one is really good too.😊
@@KidLatin272005 remake was terrible 😮
@@only257 really why do you think that the 2005 one was bad.?
*In the 80s, some public schools would call certain students to the auditorium with the belief that they did something wrong, Then they would surprise them with this very movie as a prize for having good attendance records.* The same would happen in high schools, but for high SAT scores and the movie would be 1971's classic _The Omega Man._ Good times!
Kk back story on Blazing Saddles. Mel brooks was angry on how afro Americans and jews and gay people minorities were treated. He uses some pretty rough language like the n word is fully said. I prefer americans m and by your name. Keeps it simple. I have the memory like Erin brocovitch. Give me a name I'll tell you there phone number and address and what I know of them. I know all my neighbors' names what they do and their kids' names and what their dogs' names are. Cause my dog chats with them throuougjt the day. I bring them food mostly vegetable soup abd bread because that's what I do. Now. Drive for a rich guy sometimes but he's a friend. I'd do it for free. He insists he pays me. Money is nothing. Friends and good people thst come to your aid is priceless. So as a white danish candian now, american used to sing opera. . . . I'm with Mel Brooks. More than ever now, shove the senseless hate in the face of stupid maga. Donibwant marge to represent me NO. MANCHEN BOBERT JFK JR TRUMP NOPE. Andnpeople that gave black folkn1/5 a votenandnindiansbwere savage and had no vote. Kinda have a problem with that have a problem Bitch sorry Mitch McConnell stacked the Supreme Court. Watch the m I've for yourself. Cause along with gene who helped write the script that beautiful man cleavland little because his amazing voice comedy and was a handsom man. Not gay but we Europeans appreciate what us what. Americans feel the need to have a wash. It's difficult to b understand a person from many cultures and go to a country where we're free find it so ugly. Hate filled. 3 people I admire right now Jon Stewart Jesus and George Carlin nods to Matt Damen. Cause the martian was inspiring and funny kinda lived Dogma. Billy Conelly for "Dick" same for Ford and gernan for "still game" nods to Dinero. We have a long way to fix stupid in america but I want to believe democracy works. Sometimes from a comic called before a grand jury to,defend 9-11 response victims. (The man that died from mesliteoma that comic has his fireman's coat behind him" me im on the web or the phone advocating for police to be vetted properly I have respect for law as I was a law clerk. And a few other things. We need humor music law justice equality decency faith (for all) this country was not founded on Christianity it was founded on religious freedom. And im married to my lady pastor. Art music and law and language like poetry are the highest forms of civilization. I'd rather have these things than money. I'm lucky I have a house paid for cash in the bank and in a cashe' in canada I don't need to work but I like it. I also love to serve. I was restored wen I met someone like me cutting people's lawns becauae he's my age and nice he's getting some tarts tomorrow
A fun fact: During the trippy tunnel scene, Gene forgot his lines and start singing random things, all the other actors though he was losing his mind so their faces and screams were genuine. In addition the yellow cup he bites into wasn’t actually edible it was pure wax.
No he wasn't. That was all straight from the book.
@@videohistory722 He was singing random things in the prospective of the other actors because no one else was told about the scene but Gene.
Yeah, the other actors, especially the children, thought he might have been going mad for real during that scene, based on how convincing he was. Gene Wilder always did a great job of really bringing the energy to a scene where his character is angry or nuts.
The script makes you a liar
*Mmmm... waaaaaaaax.*
I know a reasonable amount of French; here's my best translation of what Willy Wonka said: "Ladies and Gentlemen, we are now going to take a little trip by boat. Would you enter the Wonkatania?"
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.
He didn't warn Pete Ostrum, but he DID tell Ostrum before the scene: "Up until now, you've seen me in character, but never seen me act. Today, you are finally going to see me act."
After the scene, he hugged Peter Ostrum and told him it was okay, he hadn't really been angry, because he hated yelling at kids, least of all Pete Ostrum, whom he had become friends with and remained lifelong friends with.
@@GuukanKitsune That's so sweet
Poor fella, I don't think I'd blame him
The intro to Willy Wonka is so satisfying.
Also Gene Wilder doesn't get enough credit for the sass and sarcasm he gave as willy wonka. 10 out of 10
The "everything cut in half" office was a choice by the director, because he couldn't bear the thought of this room just being an office, so they did this.
I liked this movie's allegoration of the 7 Deadly Sins. The sins are referenced through its characters.
Augustus Gloop: Gluttony
Mike Teevee: Sloth
Veruca Salt: Greed
Charlie Bucket: Envy
The people looking for the golden tickets: Lust
Violet Beauregarde: Pride
21:02: He's saying "Ladies and Gentlemen, now we're going for a great little boat trip. Do you want to come on the Wonkatania?
Willy Wonka: Wrath.
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.
Why didn't she ate it like right?
I love Gene Wilder's Wonka so much and this movie in particular the lines "How much time do I have to think it over?" when the kidnappers want the lady's Wonka Bars, and when Augustus is drowning and Wonka's doing that sarcastic "Stop. Help. Murder."
The extremely passive "no, stop, don't" and the over exited "wrong" at 24:47 has been in my vocabulary for literally decades.
You could write a term paper on this movie. How each trap is set for each child weakness. How the fizzy car had exactly 4 seats, Slugworth knowing where the tickets would be.
To my mind this is the movie that made Gene Wilder so iconic.
agreed on the "😃Wrong🤓" 😂
"This suspense is terrible...I hope it lasts."
Gene Wilder is absolutely perfect for this role. And I agree, with a little tweaking this could easily be a horror movie. But, at least one were the good kid gets to live. Also, I can't get enough of the Oompa Loompa song.
If you get a chance someone actually made a fan made trailer for an R rated version of this movie and it's very interesting to say the least definitely worth looking at
All the kids lived but in rough shape.
One of the Scary Movie franchise (they parody horror movies) picked up on how creepy Dep's version of Wonka is and made him into a serial killer.
I grew up watching this movie. There's multiple things that Gene Wilder did in this movie that the other actors didn't know he was going to do.
13:03 - Gene Wilder said he'd play Willy Wonka on the condition that he could walk out with a limp, fall, do a summersault, and jump back up.
21:45 - They weren't told what was going to happen in the tunnel.
Nobody told me either and it scared the hell out of me when I was little.
34:01 - The actors playing Charlie and Grandpa Joe didn't know Gene Wilder was going to yell at them the way he did.
Kinda sad that he's stated that he hates how Willy Wonka is what he became known for.
@@Lycan4 - I've only seen him in two movies.
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and Young Frankenstein.
I barely remember what happens in that movie other than the fact that he plays Dr. Frankenstein's descendant, he pronounces the name different, it's in black and white, and there's a lady with a violin. I was little the first time I saw it.
Gene was a comedic genius
@@rebeccamichael626 no one has told you to watch Blazing Saddles, or any of his buddy movies with Richard Prior, Silver Streak, See no Evil, Hear no Evil and Stir Crazy are all 3 funny and good stories as well.
@@rebeccamichael626 I truly recommend rewatching Young Frankenstein as an adult. It is fantastic.
The chocolate room set was kept secret from the cast so that their facial expressions seemed genuine. Very smart move from the director.
21:47 The boat scene shows them their fears. Everyone else is afraid of bugs, creepy crawlies, or watching someone kill a chicken. Meanwhile Charlie is afraid of "Sluggworth." Someone that is a threat, not to him, but to Wonka.
The line "When a loaf of bread looks like a banquet, I have no right to buy tobacco" just shows how good of a man Grandpa Joe is👍🏼
Except when he encouraged Charlie to steal sips from the "fizzy lifting drink".
@@claymccoy And give slugworth the everlasting gobstopper.
He even got his ass out of bed, and starts singing how he got a golden ticket.
As a '90s kid, I grew up on this movie and it sparked my childhood crush on Gene Wilder/his portrayal of Willy Wonka. I mean, come on, a whimsical guy who not only teaches you to believe in yourself and your own powers of manifestation to create what you want in life, but he sings about it? If that doesn't set your heart aflutter, I don't know what will. To this day, "Pure Imagination" is one of my go-to happy songs.
Gene's performance as Willy Wonka is absolutely iconic, and he clearly understood the mysteriousness of the role. He stated in multiple interviews that he would only accept the part if he was allowed to do the trick with the cane when we first see him, and to have it be kept a secret from the rest of the cast until the day of filming. To have Wonka be introduced walking with a cane only for him to do a summersault and reveal he isn't frail, Gene said, would establish that for the rest of the film, you'd have no idea if Wonka was lying or not. Gene was a fantastic actor. I miss him.
This was a delightful reaction. So glad you enjoyed this film, too.
I had the privilege to work with Dr. Peter Olstrum the man who played Charlie bucket, such a wonderful person, who just retired last year.
The actress who played Violet passed away in 2019, Denise Nickerson
Peter Olstrum retired from acting or veterinarian?
Imagine being a 6-year-old boy watching this in the theater in 1971. All the chocolate...the chocolate river...the golden geese...licking the wall...just heaven! I was that 6-year-old boy in 1971
I just appreciate that of all the Dahl books into movies, they always want to preserve the “slightly creepy, chaotic neutral” aspect of this particular Dahl-tagonist
30:12 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.
This movie will forever be a classic
This movie is the most colorful dark movie i can think of, the moment the prize winners step through the gate and everything that follows, is carefully planned by Willy.
Not a single one of these "accidents" is not planned, he knows the weaknesses of every winner and puts them to the test in every single room he allows them to visit.
The gluttonous kid could not resist the chocolate river, the chewing gum champion could not resist that very special chewing gum, the greedy girl could not resist the goose with the golden eggs, the television addict could not resist being part of television.
Charlie resisted selling the everlasting gobstopper and showed he cared more for the wonders of Wonka than he cared about being rich, and that was the test from the moment they stepped through the gates.
A important clue to how everything is planned ahead long before it all happened, is the different means of transportation throughout each "department" Willy shows the kids.
Every time there is a transportation vehicle used, it has the exact amount of seats for the amount of people who are still part of the tour.
And it is left ambiguous as of what happened to the other kids and their parents, but there are hints of garbage and furnaces so... yeah, there's that too hehehe
I think the dark undertone is what makes this movie so good, everything seems happy but you can sense something is off, it just never becomes completely clear what it is.
This movie is still by far my favorite version of all the "Willy Wonka movies", i liked the one with Johnny Depp as well, but this version still stands above that (sorry Johnny).
The Ooompa-Loompa songs also get darker as the movie goes along.
@@stuartwald2395 oh right, totally forgot about that, but yes that is also getting pretty dark very quickly hehehe
It's weird to me that Wonka says he's looking for an "honest, loving child" when what it really seems like to me is that he's looking for a child who can overcome the way they were raised by their terrible parents. Augustus is only following in his parents' footsteps, Veruca is ending up just like her Mother (and her father is a complete pushover for them), Violet can't stop talking like her father (unless she's chewing some gum, and even then she jabbers away), Mike has been raised by television, and Grandpa Joe is the worst swindler and cheat ever put to film! It's not like his con is really all that good, either: he lays about in a stinky bed with three other old people -- that can't be enjoyable. But he doesn't have to do anything, and that's all he really seems to want. He convinces Charlie to steal, and then he wants Charlie to sell Slugworth the Everlasting Gobstopper (admittedly with some influence from righteous indignation on behalf of Charlie). It's not the children who are terrible, but the parents who are molding them that way.
But Charlie is overcome by the wonder of what he's seen; he doesn't want Slugworth to get anything over on Wonka. His good heart (which has been present since the bread scene) and sense of wonder overcome the bad example Grandpa Joe is setting for him, and he refuses to become the kind of person all the adults seem to be trying to make him into. I think Wonka wanted someone who could stand up to the adults in their life and work for something better.
@@Chasmodius very good view on this, i never looked at it from the parent angle but you make absolute sense in the way you link the kids to their caretakers/parents shortcomings.
It also completely fits the narrative of Wonka's childlike outlook on the work he does. thnx :)
Others have complained about it, but i love the various scenes of the adult world reacting to Wonka. As a kid thats how you sort of expect the world to react and how you expect the world to work.
Violet saying, "what is this, a freakout?!" makes me laugh every time.
Details I love:
The ticket was in the Wonka bar he bought _for his Grandpa Joe,_ just because he wanted to get something to make his Grandpa smile. He was rewarded for being selfless.
The guy who pulled Charlie out of the mob was his boss, Mr. Chapek, who IMMEDIATELY told him not to risk the Ticket being lost or stolen by finishing his paper route and run straight home and not stop for anything.
He knew Charlie's situation and wasn't going to let such a huge turn of luck for this good kid get RUINED if he could help it! Good man, Mr. Chapek.
Mrs. Teevee smugly says the song Wonka plays to open the musical lock is Brachmaninoff. She is 100% wrong. It is the opening to Mozart's Marriage of Figaro, something she would have recognized INSTANTLY if she was actually so familiar with classical music to know Brachmaninoff by ear. She is pretending to be smarter and more knowledgeable than she is.
I didn't realize that.
The only reason Gene Wilder is even in this movie is because of the somersault when he shows up. He said he'd only do the role if he was allowed to do that, from that point on, no one would be able to tell what's real and what isn't.
Also, nobody knew he was going to do this. Their reactions here are real.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, now we are going for a great little boat trip!" Is what Wonka said in French!
Do you ever do voice work? You're a natural. Your voice makes my mind drift to you working at a 70s AM Rock Radio station in NYC.
"Good morning, New York! Remember anytime you hear Crazy Dan Shout the word Zoo Crew, be the 15th caller and you will win a pair of tickets to see Cheap Trick With special guest Kiss at Radio City Music Hall".
I loved the parody episodes that Family Guy and Futurama did on this movie. I love the anniversary DVD of this movie that had the kids reunited to provide commentary on the movie.
Long live Slurms MacKenzie!
18:59 "I never _saw_ anybody with an orange _face,_ before."
Give it a few decades.
11:46 "Your reward will be _ten thousand_ of _these."_
There are a _few_ anachronisms, here, but overall, this movie gives the vibe of being based somewhere between 1930 and 1940. In 1930, the purchasing power of $10,000 was the equivalent of $180,143 in 2024. In 1940, it was the equivalent of more than $214,885. _That's_ the significance of the bribe Slugworth is offering.
I watched this film sooo often as a child. My God the nostalgia!!
22:01 Hey, now. The wheel's going the wrong _way._ The Oompa Loompas are rowing _forward,_ but the wheel is going _back._
23:34 "What's _that_ for?"
"Gives it a little _kick."_
Badum, _tsh!_
Fun fact. Gene Wilder was really really good with children except he had trouble telling them no. So all the child actors loved him and followed him around everywhere. He didn't have the heart to tell them he had work to do and they were in the way so the producers had to periodically 'rescue' him by distracting the kids and spiriting him away. On another note, please watch 'The Last Dragon', its a really good movie from the 80's. There's also a cult classic called, 'They Call Me Bruce' which I think you would enjoy, its about a Chinese immigrant who's main selling point is he looks like Bruce Lee. I won't say more about the plot because a summery would actually spoil some rather funny things.
It really is a vibe.. the musical numbers, the super strong characterization that essentially pushes it over the line into a modern fable.. ..its like a live action animation in a lot of ways.. ..always so surprised they remake this film as live action.. where as films something like James and the Giant Peach, or, Fantastic Mr Fox should be inspiring a totally visually bonkers animated adaptation of Wonka.. songs and all.. 😊
There's a story that the screenwriter for this movie told in an interview with, I believe, NPR about the ending of the movie. As the story goes, if I remember correctly, he was in Germany with the production while it was filming. After principal filming was over, he went back to the U.S. to take a vacation in a remote town. While walking around he heard the only payphone in town ringing. He answered it to find that it was either the film's director or producer. They weren't happy with the ending and was wanting it changed. The screenwriter asked how long he had to come up with the ending, and was told that they were waiting with everyone to shoot the new ending. He quickly came up with the "You know what happened to the man who got everything" ending expecting to be yelled at, only to be told that they loved it and was about to go shoot it.
This movie is probably my favourite telling of the story, from the bigger world shown through the different side jokes(the psychiatrist, the hostage takers wanting the case of Wonka bars and the computer refusing to cheat).
Wilders Wonka was a thousand times better than Depp's, who was a little too weird in comparison. Wilder is just amazing in everything he is in. I haven't seen one Wilder movie where I disliked his performance though.
The entire movie is just amazing on every front, from humour to emotion to creativity. "Pure Imagination"is magical and I am glad that the recent "Wonka"was a backstory for this version of Wonka.

I read and heard that former child actor turned doctor who portrayed Charlie supposed to have a cameo in new Wonka. Peter Ostrum, Veterinarian informed interviewer that he was offered a cameo in the new movie. This was Peter's 1st acting gig. He was offered 5 movies deal by the studio, but Peter declined the offer. Many years later, Peter went back to school for Veterinary Medicine. Dr. Peter Ostrum has his practice in New York (not the city).
Clariss
Julie Dawn Cole, who plays brat Veruca Salt is total opposite of Veruca.
@@MrTech226Denise Nickerson passed away in 2019, the actress who played Violet
Took me until just now to realize Agustus' first lines are "(I feel) Hungry." and "(I feel) Sorry for Wonka. It'll cost him a fortune."
That, right there, is some sweet writing.
31:11 This mentality has always puzzle me. I mean, look at this bar. When it goes in, it's several feet long, several feet wide and several inches thick. It's so heavy and bulky that it takes several Oompa Loompas to _carry_ it. When it comes out, it's a few inches long, a few inches wide, and a _fraction_ of an inch thick. What happened to all the extra chocolate?
If _that's_ the size bar Mr. Wonka wanted, why not just make them that size, in the _first_ place? Did he just feel the desperate need to spend a lot of money on a workup to help make chocolate _disappear?_
22:08 "Are the fires of hell _a-glowing?_
"Is the grizzly reaper _mowing?"_
"Yes! The danger _must_ be _growing-"_
🤨I think the _mushrooms_ are glowing.
38:35 French: Ladies and Gentlement, we will be going on a small trip on a boat. Do you want to board the "Wankatania".
21:00 My High School French is finally useful after 20+ years!
"Ah, ladies and gentlemen, now we are going to have a little trip by boat. Let us all enter the 'Wonkitania.'"
...
... and as the internet (and Honest Trailers) has pointed out: there's no seat for Augustus and his mother...
loved that house. Her house was literately up the street from us so we will see Gene wilder every now and then. one day when i was grocery shopping with my mom we bumped into Gene wilder and my mom and him started talking and laughing. all of the sudden he steals my moms turkey and runs away with it and yells at the front door of the grocery store "LOO KEY HERE I HAVE TURKEY, I HAVE TURKEY, GOBBLE GOBBLE." everyone was laughing. after that he felt kinda bad so he paid for all of my moms grocery's. I also use to play tennis and every now and then Gene Wilder would watch me play bc he loved tennis and he was just there to support me while my mom had to go do a few errands. I use to call him Uncle Wonka bc of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory which was one of my favorite movies growing up as a kid. MAN I MISS HIM SO MUCH. when my mom and i heard about his passing we started to cry and after we ate dinner we went into the family room and started watching Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. RIP Gene Wilder we really miss you old friend
6:57 I am from AZ and there is no Marble Falls Arizona. Mike was always supposed to be from Texas, but the actor slipped up and they kept that part in
Wonkss German Translation: Ladies and gentlemen, please give me your attention. You now come into the most interesting room of my factory, the most secret room at the same time. Ladies and gentlemen: the 'Inventing Room.
Veruca has a cut on her knee in the scene where she's bashing a ball on the rock. 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.
The one thing Wilder's and Depp's movies have in common for me is...I totally didn't get them when I first saw them. I wasn't sitting down and watching this one the first time I saw it, just walking back and forth with another friend I was visiting, but I saw the Agustus in the pipe sequence and Wonka snapping at the kids after handing out the gobstoppers, and totally assumed that this wasn't a happy movie.
My French is rusty, but off the top of my head I'm sure it was "ladies and gentlemen, let us take a little trip by boat and would you please board the Wonkatania"
Yes, that's pretty much it.
Ladies and Gentlemen, we are now going to make a little trip by boat.
Would you like to enter the Wonkatania?
Did you notice the boat didn't have room for the Gloops?
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.
Denise Nickerson passed away in 2019, the actress who played Violet
The actress who played Violet passed away in 2019
The best chocolate advertisement ever devised.
There was supposed to be an Oompa Loompa on the bike, but he was too short, so Gene did it and added the song as his own personal flare.
22:11 Yes, they're actually freaked. They thought Gene had genuinely snapped. And the words are actually straight from the book.
Congrats on your marriage! Saw pics on IG.
Thank you!!
Fun fact: The girls who played Violet and Veruca both had a crush on Peter Ostrum who played Charlie. In real life they would alternate days for one of them to spend time with Ostrum.
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.
Gene Wilder appears in the 1972 The Little Prince. If you haven't seen it before, I would strongly recommend it as a reaction video.
Gene only agreed to do the role if he could the the walking stick fall over at the first meeting so from that point on you wouldn't know if he was serious or messing with you at any point past that
There is a great extra layer to Gene's performance. The reveal that his limp is fake is just a ruse to disarm the viewer from the fact that Wonka is still acting. Up until Charlie returns the gobstopper, Wonka is being mean and callous to everyone as part of his contest. RIP to a real talent.
For years, the only part of this movie Ive seen is when Wonka blows up at Grandpa Joe and Charlie because I work at a ballpark and had to hear that every time one of the players flubbed up, lol
5:36 That's a Mallomar you're talking about! Quite good!
I haven't seen the new ones yet but to me this will always be the definitive Willy Wonka 🙂
R.I.P To A Great Actor Gene Wilder, Still Miss You Always 😢 & Great Reaction To One Of My All Time Favorite Movie's Sweetheart
I met Gene once in San Diego a wonderful man.
21:00 French: *Mesdames et messieurs, maintenant nous allons faire grand petit voyage par bateau,*
English *Ladies and gentlemen, now we are going to take a big little trip by boat,*
I can't get other the fact that every vehicule they use has the right amount of places 😅😂
The wife's hesitation is a callback to the classic Jack Benny "being mugged" gag.
Benny's performance persona was well-known as a penny-pinching, stingy miser.
In the routine a mugger holds him at gunpoint and utters the classic demand: "Your money or your life!"
Benny silently stands there for several moments.
The thief agitatedly demands "Didn't you hear me?!? I said, your money or your life?"
Benny replies "I'm thinking,... I'm thinking."
I'm 24 years old and I still love this movie! 🍫
One of the things that makes this film a "timeless classic" is the soundtrack music, (written by Anthony Newley, who was a popular both child & adult actor) he was never really known as a song writer, but did he do well at this score, the WILLY WONKA music, holds its own against ANY classic musical you can name- SINGING IN THE RAIN, CAROUSEL, WEST STDE STORY & others, very impressive considering WILLY WONKA isnt thought of as a musical,
as for the soulless bombastic Johnny Dep version, with his mousy child voice it doesnt even come close, good only for the visuals, and where's the original music? ESPECIALLY pure imagination, which so well described the storyline (which is back thank God in this current version WONKA) That ive recently seen recently, finally a version worthy of the original, its- fun adventurous. funny (though less darkly) fachinating, VERY colourful & of course well made, with a generally clever prequel story
Highly recommended
36:29 The city laid out below them here is Munich.
In french he said: "ladies and gentlemen, we will now take a short boat ride, would you like to enter the wonkatania ?"
17:05 that woman just called the beginning notes of Le Nozze di Figaro, one of Mozart's best and most iconic operas (and therefore one of the best operas ever) Rachmaninoff 😭
Mrs. Teevee is not actually seasick. She's nauseous from the smell of the river.
That makes sense. I heard that river started developing quite the nasty scent after a few days.
Fun Fact: Sammy Davis Jr.'s version of the song, "The Candy Man" went #1 on the US Billboard Weekly Pop Chart in the summer of '72.
lovely reaction to my childhood. snowpiercer is like an unofficial sequel that follows in their weird and unnerving footsteps.
Fun fact Julie dawn Chloe aka veruca had pre-recorded her I want it now song the day before filming so when she sang it with the golden geese room it was her birthday so she lip synced it.
Before they sent her down the chute they all sang happy birthday. She was just 13 at the time
The part where the owner of the candy store just gives kids he knows have money free candy. But was probably ready to throw Charlie out until he saw he had money to pay for candy
One of the kids stole their Gobstopper, along with their ticket after they finished filming. I think it was Violet or Veruca.
Bean feast: any festive occasion with a meal and perhaps an outing. Usually in a idyllic setting.
Thank you Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse.
8:33 This scene is so well done

3:49 it was either this kid or one of the kids called on during the hated “percentages” scene that is actually the director’s kid, and apparently some of the girls had a crush on him. I learned about it from the collectors’ edition copy we had when I was a kid. It included interviews of all the kids and some of the adult actors too, including Gene Wilder, looking back on the movie and telling stories about it ❤❤❤
It was the kid in the beginning. Actually, the girl in the percentages scene is his daughter.
Grandpa Joe and Charlie were excited to do the Fizzy Lifting Drink scene, but said they were miserable afterwards from constantly being yanked up and all that.
The burps were done by a foley artist that's also a professional burpist.
Gene Wilder and Peter Ostrum, (Charlie) became really good friends while filming this movie!
If I remember when watching the making of this movie they used bean water for the chocolate river
Then again, even if it really was chocolate, in that form, wouldn’t that also count as bean water?
A Total classic, love this movie so much. My dad introduced me to this when I was in middle school, all the songs I remember still to this day. Love your reaction to this.
The Frisco Kid! Awesome Gene Wilder movie!
😂😂😂 I still laugh at Muscle Man's impersonation of the boat ride scene in Regular Show!
Best musicals: this, The King And I, Sweeney Todd Demon Barber.
17:00 when he plays Mozart and she says matter-of-factly "Rachmaninoff" lol
The "Not till you're 12 son." line took over 14 takes.
6:17 "That's really, really _weird,_ though. I- I know that there's a purpose to it, but just, like, I _hate_ how much... 'Cause he just looks so creepy. I would _not_ allow him that close to my children."
Yeah. And how is it he seems to know _right_ where every golden ticket is about to be _found?_ This is a company with a major, international _distribution._ Augustus Gloop, in Germany, found one and this guy just happened to be _right there._ Veruca Salt, in the US, found another and _again,_ this guy just happened to be _right there._ What information is he getting?
7:11 There he is _again._
11:11 And there he is _again._ _Man,_ this guy gets around.
5:18 It's _so_ unfortunate when confection companies rely on _giveaways_ to encourage people to consume their product. Like they can't just keep being lured back by the fact that it _tastes_ good?
5:37 And look at all the chocolate going to _waste_ as a _result._

I cannot understand anyone having nostalgia with the Tim Burton one, that one freaked me out so much. I recently rewatched that one because my copy of this stopped working a while back and the only replacement had both movies. Burtononka doesn't terrify me anymore but it's still insanely creepy and I will rarely watch it.
Well, too bad. Because I do along with multiple adults my age. This film has its charm, but I grew up with Burton's and prefer it. Its weirdness and slightly dark and eerie tone are much more up my alley than the happy whimsical tone of this version. If anything, I thought this movie was too boring as a kid and was way too disappointed with how cheap some of the chocolate factory sets looked in this film (especially the chocolate and inventing rooms), enough to not finish it back then (and if you think about bringing it up, the time period is not a good defense for its cheap sets because the movie ran on a pretty low budget, even for 1971 standards). It also never terrified me, and I actually find it slightly more disturbing now as an adult than as a child
according to the lore: this starts out nice and innocent, next thing you know the world ends and you get "Snowpiercer. "

"Mesdames et messieurs, maintenant nous allons faire un petit voyage par bateau. Voulez-vous entrer le Wonktania?"
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are now going to take a little boat ride. Do you want to board the Wonkatania?"
IMO, he should said "s'il vous plaît" instead of "voulez-vous", but I only took one term of French. What do I know?
4:10 agreed... i also think that the tickets were never actually sent out in the chocolate. Evidence of that is there would be no way to guarantee the ticket is found and found by a child and also it would be the only way to explain how Slugworth was at every location the moment the ticket was found or soon after. It had to be Slugworth who was planting the bar of chocolate that has the ticket at each location.... but deciding which child would get the ticket was still most likely up to chance after said chocolate bar was planted, aside from Veruca because it would have been planted in her fathers factory. The only other way i could think would be to track each box of chocolate containing the ticket and only sending one box of chocolate out that has a ticket at a time.
When a reaction to Willy Wonka takes a unique angle, I tend to soak up that perspective and look at the film with a fuller appreciation. You might be the first reactor I've come across who's latched so much onto the poverty shown in the first half ... and how Grandpa Joe's selfishness stands out before he corrects himself. It subtly sets up the mindset that contrasts him with Charlie and allows events to go down in Wonka's factory the way they do (taking fizzy-lifters; carrying enough spite to consider selling out to Slugworth).
