Wonka has always been a little scary...kids love it and are freaked out about it, too.

As the guy who personally requested both of these on discord for the last year or so i just want to say thanks for watching these 2 classics. I know the original one has a tendency to put the new one to shame but they're both great movies in their own right. Again thank you for listening to your fans and being who you are Leo. Time to sit back and chill for a few hours.

I was a dark chocolate with almonds snickers guy before I stopped eating sugar. Hershey's is a classic, for sure a top pick but It just isn't as filling as a Snickers bar. Cheers!!

You were right. This movie does hit different and has all the feel good vibes you'd expect. That said, I haven't seen Charlie & the Chocolate factory yet, but from the trailers, I just don't see it having the same impact.

Back when I smoked, I had to be chewing a PB Twix too because for some reason it tasted better when I combined all 3 flavors. Sadly it lost it's effect months later but I still prefer any PB & Chocolate combo

There's a reason r/ihategrandpajoe exists. One thing I'll note, the whole walking thing. Whether a movie or play/musical. Nobody wants to see the learning to walk again process. Gotta keep moving with the story. Just me tho

Favorite chocolate bar is a Reese’s. I grew up watching this movie it’s the reason my sweet tooth is so bad now. I watched it a lot had it on vhs. Even now I randomly get “cheer up Charlie” stuck in my head lol. Might as well watch the new wonka movie. I thought it was really cute. And no Charlie and the chocolate factory is just a modern day remake and wonka that came out last year is a prequel to the original when wonka was younger

Wtf do you mean "I got a golden Ticket" Grandpa Joe? You didn't get shit, Charlie found the ticket and took that old crook instead of his Momma who deserved? Fraud collecting government assistance pretending he can't walk and help out with the bills but come to Chocolate, oh he can dance around fine and dandy, plus where did he get the Chocolate bar he gave to Charlie? He had to have walked his happy ass to the store for that. And to top of off he's a thief who encouraged his Grandson to Steal! He gets called out on his bullshit by Willy himself and instead of taking responsibility, he plans to Screw Wonka even more by helping Slugworth -.- Grandpa Joe is one of the all time Movie Bad Guys

Silver Streak (1976) with Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder is super underrated.

Fun fact: The ones in charge of making the movie told Gene Wilder not to fake an injury and then roll over and be fine. Gene said if he can't do that then he doesn't do the movie. Straight up refused, so they let him do it.

Randy Olson

This version is better than the remake. The remake is good, don't get me wrong, but the orginal is superior.

The scene where Willy Wonka walks out with a cane and a limp, and then does a somersault was not scripted. Gene Wilder came up with the idea and no one told the children it was going to happen. Their expressions and reactions that you commented on were 100% genuine.
The idea was that, from that point on, no one would know if Willy Wonka was being serious or pulling your leg, and it worked perfectly!

This was my favorite movie growing up. Probably the most nostalgic film in my eyes. The trippy riverboat scene is my favorite, whereas the mom singing “Cheer Up, Charlie” is my least favorite scene. It’s hard to cram this into one genre.

To answer your question at the end, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) is a remake of this movie. It is still worth watching though, then you compare the modern version with this version and they're different enough to not feel like you're watching the same film twice and it is good. People often say it's bad because they have rose tinted nostalgia goggles for the first.
After that you should also watch Wonka (2023), it acts as an origin for Willy Wonka, not directly to either of the other films, but it acts on its own as well.

Now watching this as an adult I’m seeing so much that I missed. Wonka sense of humor lol. He’s pretty funny. Has that sarcastic side. And from what I saw he didn’t lie. And the final test. When Charlie gave that candy back. I think he was looking for the kid who was not going to sell his secrets. Which comes in the mystery man. It was all a test to see who would be the best kid to take on his legacy. Now that I am seeing all this this has a great message. And that whole boat seen. As a child I was so scared of that scene. Scared the crap out of me lol. When watching this with you I was watching them get on it I was like uh oh there it is 😂😂 can’t wait for the next :)

Hahah I got you. I knew you would say great 😂 yes this is the one you should start with. Such a great classic. I loved this one and the Jonny depp one. I have never seen the Timothee chalamet (spelling) one yet though. Probably because this one and the Jonny depp one is just amazing. I don’t know how the other one could top it. But chalamet is a great actor.
