I Watched *CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY* For The FIRST Time & It Had SOOOO Many BOPS!

Are we going to see the new Wonka movie when it drops? 👀 do we prefer the older one Charlie and factory movie or this one? Another video dropping this Monday! Spy kids 2! DRINK WATER :_LOVE::_LOVE::_LOVE::_LOVE::_LOVE::_LOVE::_LOVE::_LOVE:

For several reasons, I actually think this is the superior version: - More book accurate - Better ending - More interesting characterisation (the original characters were really basic and flat) - Mr Bucket exists - Better grandparents - Superb sets - Varied and catchy music - Wonka’s backstory - Dahl hated the original movie (even said it was too saccharine)

I know a lot of people are somewhat mixed on this version following the book, over the less accurate, more cheery nature of the original 70's version, but for me, that's what makes this version better, in it's core Ronald Dahl's books always had some form of dark undertone in most of his works (however you may feel personally about the man in question or his works) so it does fit with the original theme of it

Burton was completely against using CGI if he could help it, and this is another example. All the squirrels you see? They're real. In fact, they're rescue squirrels that Burton specifically hired someone to train them to do all these scenes. He even named them. If you really want specifics, the real ones are whenever you get a close up of one, when they first attack Veruca's stunt double, and when that one squirrel pushes the dad in after her. Also, apparently this is supposed to be ironic. She exploited nut workers to get what she wanted in the beginning, tried to do the same thing here, and it backfired.

Philip Wiegratz, the actor who played Augustus Gloop, was a trooper! Not only did he have a fat suit, not only did he have a fear of swimming which he powered through, but the boy didn't speak a word of English.

I love this movie because it's more true to the book. Plus, I love the Oompa Loompa songs.

The bucket house is actually the reason the movie got the green light from Roald Dahl's widow. Why? It's based off of Dahl's famous writing shed. It's common knowledge that Dahl hated the original, so naturally she was protective of any future adaptations. But when she saw the house, and found out they'd designed the Bucket house like that on purpose? That sold the deal for her.

They literally could've gone in any direction with Violet. She's literally just described as being beastly, and having bad manners. Tim Burton just took that and ran with it.

Cinematography note here: the further they get inside the factory, the colors drain away. Do with that what you will. It's not just Wonka that's getting washed out, the factory is too. He just made a huge technological invention, and there's no joy in it other than for advertising candy.

Fun fact , this movie was alot closer to the original story than thr other movie

This whole scene with Wonka and his father is based off when Tim Burton visited his dying mom and found out she made a scrapbook of all his movie posters. And now I'm wondering if that in any way influenced his work on Big Fish

Sad to see how despite how crushing it is to hear Charlie say they should give up the ticket for money, you can see they're already accepting it as the truth. They're so close to starving, and literally can't afford to think they can survive on chocolate alone.

29:47 Violet's song was the creepiest one by far in the book: Majority of the song is taken over by a story the Oompa Loompas tell of a woman who chewed gum everyday to the point she always needed to be chewing on something. I don't remember all the exact lines but I think it mentioned how she chewed through her hair, bit her boyfriend's nose and the story ends with her taking out her gum for bed but she chews in her sleep and bites off her tongue! 😨😨Nightmare fu

A version where everyone survives, and the parents are stuck with the results of their parenting style. Augustus: mom didn't stop him from overeating. Veruca: dad wound up in the garbage because of him spoiling her. Violet: blue because her mom pushed her to pit herself above the others. Mike: let technology be his son's only babysitter, and never stopped him.

What got me about this movie is how thoroughly Johnny Depp disappears into Willy Wonka. Or at least, that's what it felt like when I was kid and this movie came out. Because with Pirates of the Caribbean and even Alice I was like 'yeah that's Johnny Depp doing a very good job acting'. But with this movie someone told me that was Johnny Depp and I looked at them like....damn what movie did you watch? I didn't see johnny depp no damn where 😂

Glad to see someone else mention how messed up it was that Willie's father actually let him trick or treat just to throw the candy out in front of him. WTF.

Say what you want about them playing the dementia trope for laughs, but according to people with family members who have dementia, they all learned to treasure every moment of clarity like it's the last one. Like Charlie's doing here.

Charlie was a baby and felt he should make more sacrifices for his family and he was so sweet and considerate towards others. He was broke and vulnerable and starving and still had heart enough to put others first. It's so sweet he was brought up right like that, but still... he shouldn't have had to feel he was in that position ever

Johnny Depp is absolutely an incredible actor

It’s funny how you mentioned that Harry Potter movies, because the actress that played Charlie’s mom is the same actress that would go on to play Bellatrix in the Harry Potter movies.
