    For everyone saying the factory isn't in America, it actually IS American, believe it or not. The movie goes to great lengths to try and make the location ambiguous (nonsense monetary symbols, ambiguous coins, a German shoot location but everyone speaking English) but the television coverage of the Golden Ticket search we see Charlie watching always references "here in America." And in the book, he finds a "dollar" in the gutter. So signs point heavily to Wonka's being an American company.

  • @sewthernbelle
    @sewthernbelle Před 6 lety +6031

    Not bad MatPat. Not bad. But let me try one better. Willy Wonka was willing to risk the OSHA violations because the contest winners never actually saw the real factory. What they saw was a series of carefully crafted rooms designed to test the real winner of the golden ticket contest. Why? To find his true successor. Who? Charlie Bucket. That's right! Charlie was the first choice all along. But Wonka had to test him.
    First piece of evidence that we see that the factory Wonka showed off wasn't the real factory was right in the opening credits. Remember the credits rolling over a series of conveyor belts and machines making chocolate? Funny how we never saw that room in the tour huh? That's because non disclosure agreements aside, Wonka wasn't going to trust his secrets to a group of strangers. So that's reason number 1 he created a bunch of fake candy making rooms that would still be way too small to produce the massive amounts of chocolate he actually sells.
    Reason number 2 is as he says in the movie, he needed someone to pass his secrets down to. So he sent his only non Oompa Loompa employee Mr Wilkerson to find an honest child. He found four kids that could have been candidates but they were eliminated. Augustus had a good head for business "it'll cost him a fortune in fudge" but he was a glutton. Veruca wasn't afraid to boss people around but she was spoiled and greedy. Violet was competitive but a nitwit. Mike had a scientific mind since he was always asking questions, but he was lazy. Then right in the same town Wilkerson finds Charlie Bucket. But there's a problem. All the other kids turned out the way they did because of their parents. And while Charlie was mostly a good kid, he still had a father figure in his life that was a bad influence. That's right. Grandpa Joe. After all the man spent twenty years in a bed then gets up and does a song and dance? Some kind of fraud going on there... Don't believe sweet Grandpa Joe was a bad influence? Who convinced Charlie to try the fizzy lifting drinks?
    So Wonka decides to create a series of fake rooms to tour and at the same time teach the runners up and their parents a lesson. That's why he quotes a bunch of random literature references as his own private jokes at the parents expense. All while testing Charlie and how he responds. He has Mr. Wilkerson pretend to be slugworth to bribe each of the kids. Which is why we see him talking to each one. And wasn't it a bit weird that "Slugworth" knew where Charlie was only minutes after winning the tickets? That's because Wilkerson had fixed it so each of the finalists would get a golden ticket and no one else.
    Upon learning about the fizzy lifting drinks, Wonka still had faith in Charlie and did one last test. He blew up at them, yelling at them. As expected Grandpa Joe yells back, with Wonka knowing he's challenging Charlie's father figure and forcing Charlie to make a choice. To take the easy way out like Grandpa Joe has done for most of his life and sell the Everlasting Gobstopper, or do the right thing.
    And Charlie did the right thing. Earning his reward. Only to discover that those fantastical rooms he saw were just for show and were probably dismantled the next day before the OSHA inspector got there. But hey...that's just a theory...a film theory! And...cut

    Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is just one of those movies that scared you as a kid, but becomes a horror movie as you get older. That goes for both versions, but the original especially. I don't remember how many of those kids actually survived, if any of them, because it's been a while since I've last seen it. But some of them definitely didn't make it, and it's just completely brushed over.

    Okay but like...why not give it to all the children?
    Hear me out.
    Veruca Salt is from a super wealthy family who already know the ins and outs of owning and running a business, specifically a food based company. Not only will she be able to address the legal problems the factory faces, but she will be able to combine the companies to increase supplies and sales.
    Violet Beauregard is dedicated to competition, specifically candy based competition. She will be able to provide fresh ideas to outdo competitors.
    Augustus Gloop is obsessed with candy and would most likely be able to invent new ideas and flavours the keep the factory going.
    Mike Teavee would be amazing at advertising, knowing what gels with the largest audience and knowing how to cast the widest net possible for virtually everyone to see the ads for the factory.
    And Charlie, well with Charlie’s uncle’s background of working with Wonka and his own optimistic, carefree and creative ideals, he’s basically be the new Wonka in charge of taking care of everyone and ensuring no fights breakout between the kids.

      1. Can't say that Wonka didn't warm him before he fell in, also why did his mom do nothing to save her son and then blamed others afterwards?
      2. Again, he warned the kid (which violet took herself and Wonka didn't give her mind you)
      3. Again, warned beforehand. Also, he didn't have any trauma after he got smaller, and we don't see his unshrinking, so anything else is purely hypothetical.
      4. We don't see the impact so any damages are hypothetical.
      5. The contract is actually irrelevant because much like the "factory" it's all an elaborate ruse designed to test one's integrity.
      Why do you think Charlie's supposed contract violation is dropped immediately after passing?

The employee had not previously been diagnosed with epilepsy. You ask how to classify this injury.
    Answer: The incident is classified as an injury due to the laceration to the head received upon falling and the medical treatment of sutures required to treat the laceration." If one of them were to have a seizure that would be his fault.

    Regarding the "factory in america" point "One day, walking home from school, Charlie sees a fifty-pence piece (A dollar bill in the US version) "..... But also the factory is based on the UK factory "cabury world" which Dahl visited.... So this would not be an OSHA issue, it would be a "Health and safety in the workplace act of 1974" but the movie is from 1971..... So in the words of Willy Wonka "Goodday sir, you lose"

  • @JoshtheBackwoodsStoryteller

    I think another thing we all need to realize is that the original book was written in 1964, long before OSHA became law.
    And sure, while there may have been some workplace rules back then regarding safety and other hazards, they were considered guidelines more than actual rules/regulations/laws. Which means that many employers, businesses, companies and corporations did alot of things back then that are considered unethical, illegal and doesn't take the worker's health and safety into account. And these employers, businesses, companies and corporations got away with it for so many decades simply because they could since there were no legal ramifications at the time to prevent them from doing so.
    So if anything, the book and the 1971 movie are just being accurate to how workplace environments probably were back then.

This also happens when they take that car thing.

    Another note: wouldn't the boat contaminate the chocolate river, even if it's clean? Imagine if some oil leaked out, or some pieces break away from said boat. They'd have to be paying an incredible amount of attention to any boats that touch any of the products made in the Wonka factory. I know this is, what, 3 years late, but I feel like this would be another pretty big concern. If unnoticed, pieces of the boat could end up in the chocolate and be made into bar as it hardens, same with the oil. That could be a choking hazard or risk of food poisoning. Of course, this is only regarding the film discussed here; the more recent version with Johnny Depp used what I'm guessing is a candy boat with candy oars.

    • @RozehKakes
      @RozehKakes Před rokem +17

      hopefully the sugar boat is just dyed sugar and not a different mix of candy and other stuff, cuz thats a diff realm of cross contaminating
      the chocolate river is already molten, so its possibly hot enough to begin dissolving or melting sugar (not at the same rate ofc, chocolate and cocoa butter are a lot of oil, sugar is crystaline and melts at higher temps)
      same thingnifnit was just a river of cold water, lukewarm milk (gross), any other fluid with a percentage of water (but surprizingly not in oil, so thats interesting 👀)
      sugar can melt in whatever amount of water that is avalible in the chocolate river mix, or even just dissolve from the slight bit of water left in the hardened material of the boat itself over time. candy doesnt last forever lol
      s o y e a
      even if its a small percentage and is highly diluted in the end production of whatever chocolate product itll become, its still a percentage of candy or additional sugar to all those tons of chocolate mix

    • @anneexoskin2287
      @anneexoskin2287 Před 9 měsíci +5

      Well the boat that is in the film is a steam boat, meaning that it runs on coal, and wouldn’t leak that much oil.
      That being said imagine all the smoke and dust particles coming out of the stacks and into the chocolate river, they would have to constantly clean out the river to get all the dust out and it’s not just the river but also the pipes that are connected to the boiler room, if left unattended and unclean, it would not only be contaminating the chocolate from the chemicals in coal or oil, but it also would be a huge fire hazard if ever those chemicals came into the boiler.
      and the boat feels like an unnecessary use of transportation as wonka and the ompas walk around the chocolate river with no problem,
      The tunnel itself would not only bring people trama from the images from it, but for those of the employees or consumers who have epilepsy probably would have a problem with the flashing lights in the tunnel.
      The tunnel is also a flooding hazard, why, imagine if that big boat gets stuck in the very narrow gap tunnel, then all that boiling hot chocolate river that is flowing down from the waterfall would overflow and fill up the entire room until either the boat gets unstuck or the factory turns off and no more chocolate runs down the water fall.

      To quote Rinho Stew "Both movies revolve around economic class structure, children, food, but most interesting of all both of these stories thematically examine sacrifice choice and freewill" and "they are both movies about a group of people who work their way through a large fantastic structure, one by one a person from the group is removed from each room until one person makes it to the very end who then found out that the entire thing was a test bc a wealthy industrialist wanted to find a successor"

    Dear filmtheorist,
    I would have a big favour to ask regarding a very specific incident:
    In the Episode "If wishes were horses" of "Star Trek - Deep Space Nine", Chief Miles O'Brien is telling his daughter the story of Rumpelstilzchen, especially the part were he was told his own name and stomped so hard, that the whole kingdom was trembling, splitting himself in two.
    Now, after O'Brien told the story, Rumpelstilzchen appeared suddenly right in front of him.
    After calling for security, O'Brien called Rumpelstilzchen by his name, but he learned to stay in control of it's anger and not stomp that hard anymore.
    But still it made me wonder: If Rumpelstilzchen would have stomped in the Spacestation with the same force, he used to tremble a whole Kingdom, how destructive would have been the effect to Deep Space Nine? Was O'Brien maybe lucky, that he did not by this little Word doomed the whole Space Station?
