"You're the worst chocolatier I've ever heard of." Depp: But you have heard of me...
based wonka
In Cap's voice "I got the reference"
"Willy Wonka ? You're the best chocolatier anyone has ever heard of !" "But you have... eh... fine."
BEST comment
Ironically, if each of the kids embodies one of the deadly sins (minus Lust, of course), Charlie would embody Envy.
Sloth is the kid that didnt show up. :P Or maybe that's Wonka
@@Heavenlyhounds96oh my God this is hilarious
Grandpa Joe is sloth
😮
@@Heavenlyhounds96 I thought that was mike tv
Always liked the twist that Charlie does reject the offer at first. Wonka wanted to isolate him (in retrospect really creepy) but Charlie turned him down, choosing his family over riches. And it was neat that the Buckets kinda lifted themselves out of poverty, independent of Wonka; I liked seeing Charlie's dad studying mechanical engineering in the background during the ticket hunt.
I blame Batman for putting Mr. Bucket out of a job by killing the CEO of the Smilex corporation. >:(
He had failed this city.
lol hey Vantas! and yeah I agree with you, this movie is a lot better than most people give it credit
They conveniently ignored that fact in this video because it would undermine their narrative that the 73 movie is better in every way.
Reminds me of one of my favourite exchanges in the movie. Wonka: "(Families are) always telling you what to do and what not to do and it's not conducive to a creative atmosphere!" Charlie: "Usually they're just trying to protect you, because they love you."
It will forever be ironic that _"Willy Wonka" and the Chocolate Factory_ focused on Charlie while _"Charlie" and the Chocolate Factory_ focused on Wonka.
No, any movie Depp is in focuses on Depp. 'Dark Shadows' 'Alice in Wonderland' staring the mad hatter, 'Lone Ranger' etc. all of Depps movies in the last 20 years are Johnny Depp playing Johnny Depp.
@@FriendofstfrankHe had a small role in Into the Woods.
So, Wonka should focus on the Oompa Loompas
So true!
The first one was only named Willy Wonka and… because Dahl disliked it for being too light and cheesy. His books were supposed to have a dark side. His family thought the Burton version captured that better so let him use the original name.
seeing the “I am a surgeon” meme in actual video form for the first time was a whiplash of an experience
LIVE JOHNNY GAT REACTION (Daniel Dae Kim, who was Dr. Han in that scene, also was the voice of Johnny Gat in the Saints Row series)
you hadn't seen it but had heard of the meme?
FRR
I was even more suprised to learn they're the same actor 🤣🤣
@@TychoVan the meme was everywhere when it first happened but just never seen the clip
The irony is that aside from the whole backstory for Wonka, this version is actually more accurate to the book overall than the original. Got to take the bad with the good I guess!
Counterpoint: Christopher Lee nullifies “the bad”
so the book sucks?
@@noitallmanazI mean it’s a weird book
True. Roald Dahl hated the 70s movie. I assume he would have liked this one better if he was alive to see it.
YEP
The only part of the movie I remember was when Wonka got in an argument with his dad and left home and his dad said "Fine, but I will not be here if you come back" and when Wonka returned the whole house was gone.
To this day, I'm still wondering about that scene. How is that even possible? I mean, it's one thing if Wonka returned and simply didn't find his dad still residing there, but he returned and find the whole freaking house cleanly disappeared in between other houses. It's like it's been teleported somehow. It also didn't make sense storywise, isn't his dad just a simple dentist instead of tech-wizardry of some sort?
@ahmadraihan797 its fiction, it doesnt matter 'how' it happened....
@@ahmadraihan797He's a wizard. Sir Christopher Lee can do whatever he wants
@@ahmadraihan797This is a world where whipped cream comes from whipped cows. If somebody says he’s not going to be there, he’s not going to be there in the most absurd way possible.
@@waltascher I usually really hate that argument, though at least it is consistent with the film's atmosphere.
I always remember that Marylin Manson desperately wanted the role of Wonka. I assume the conversation went: Producer guy: "No, we're trying to appeal to children." Manson: "What? I can be child friendly!" Producer guy: "If you just showed up in public without all the goth make up and just looking like your normal self, you would still give kids nightmares."
I mean between Gene Wilder and Johnny Depp's depictions, I would think they wanted to give children nightmares
@@battlesheep2552 they wanted to make children learn that you don't follow the man that offers candy
Id you look for the video for Dope Hat by Marilyn Manson you could get a glimpse although very low budget of what he wanted to do with the character
Funny thing is Manson (without costume) just looks like a typical Hollywood burnout/washup these days. Looks older than he should, more wrinkles, more sags, darker bags under his eyes. Drugs are a helluva drug, kids.
He knew that, thus the scary make up. So he could pretend...
"You get nothing. You lose. Good day, sir!"
I said good day!
"Everything in this room is eatable, even I'm eatable, but that is called cannibalism my dear children and is in fact frowned upon in most societies."
@@bucketofsunshine6366 "But Fez"
"Growing up in the reverse beartrap from Saw" made me laugh hahahahah
But on the other hand, he does have perfect teeth now.
I mean they trained actual squirrels and made animatronic ones, the entire candy room was real including the river, and the Oompa Loompas were mostly done via forced perspectives but sure let's all just remember the CGI. Because why appreciate the work that went into all of this
Exactly
The sad thing is this version is actually more accurate to the book sans how it ended.
Yeah Wonka is meant to be creepy and unsettling. Wilder did try to embody that during the moments when the character loses his cool, but otherwise didn't. Depp kept up the disturbing element more consistently.
Everybody says that but I read the book and can't see how.
Yes! Ronald Dahl did not write delightful children's stories. He wrote cruel and whimsical tales about the cruelty of adults toward children. And kids love it. The 70s movie sanded off too many edges. And if we're going to talk about empty protagonists, at least Freddie Highmore has screen presence
Also, it looks like there’s loads of cgi, but both the chocolate river and the squirrels were actually on set
Yeah honestly Wonka being a whimsical slightly unhinged manchild makes sense in the context of the candy empire he created
"So strap in for a charming family film that doesn't really like children, overweight people, and foreigners." So, pretty much true to both Roald Dahl's writing and the original movie! Also my soul exited my body when I realized that this movie came out almost twenty years ago and Charlie and Violet's actors both have thriving adult careers in Hollywood now.
I worked in a Theater when this came out. Imagine seeing this in 5 minute segments throughout your day for like 2 months.
Good GOD 😮
I'm so sorry
It’s a masterpiece, so I wouldn’t complain.
sounds bad
@@thegoodreylo4749 I hope bad things for you
Random fun fact that I found absolutely fascinating is that those squirrels were NOT CGI! They were just really highly trained, so everything they did with sorting the nuts was completely real. So cool!
I've been laughing at "Wonka-da Forever" for the past 10 minutes
I cried and laughed at the same time. Man, I miss T’Challa and Chadwick.
Can we please get an Honest Trailer for _Gremlins_ before Christmas arrives?
Yes! Please do this!
I second the motion😂
It is in the movie!
This, Polar Express, AND Planes, Trains and Automobiles!
Knowing their track record, it will probably only be Marvel or Star Wars for the next few months.
I still find the part when they are in the elevator and he says “puppet hospital and burn centre…it’s relatively new” ridiculously hilarious
I still think the Gene Wilder version is better, but I still love this one. Tim Burton's style is always fun to see, Danny Elfman's score is great, and the darker tone is more accurate to the book. I do feel even worse for the Oompa Loompas in this one though.
Agreed
Seş
And glad they got at least one other thing right the Wilder didn't (The Great Glass Elevator)
IIRC, Wonka in the book is very unsettling, so Depp's performance was closer to that than Wilder's (Wilder was great though, I wasn't saying otherwise).
I saw Tim's first so for me it will always be the better one, Ive seen the Wilder one but it obviously very different, I really enjoyed the Burton on
Genuinely the funniest HT in a while 😂 Wonkonda forever, Saruman the Whitening, Screen Junkie, perfect!
Senile Joe! was pretty good too
"A CANDY CANE!" 😂
Agreed - every single joke landed and was perfect 👏
The scene of Charlie looking at all the newspaper clippings that Willy's dad kept over the years is one of the most touching scenes in a movie for me. I've been asking for months now, can we please get a trailer for seasons 2 and 3 of the Boys before season 4 comes out?
They DID make a trailer for seasons 2 & 3 of The Boys. 2 months ago
Burton claimed that was inspired by how when he visited his estranged mother on her deathbed, she’d kept newspaper clippings documenting his entire career.
Say: "Chewing Gum is really gross, Chewing Gum I hate the most!"
Gum chewing's fine when it's once in a while. It stops you from smoking and brightens your smile. But it's repulsive, revolting, and wrong chewing and chewing all day long. The way that a cow does. 😉
Roald Dahl actually hated the Jean Wilder movie. It had nothing to do with his book, and it was basically an overproduced commercial for Nestle's new Wonka line of candy The new one is basically a word for word remake of the book
Funnily enough this movie is actually closer to the book than "Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory." Besides the added flashback stuff, and Charlie rejecting the offer at first.
They left the part out about how Charlie became Norman Bates, before becoming a surgeon.
Charlie had a much more normal upbringing than Norman
We need an Honest Trailer for the Polar Express already!
Indeed!
Here here! Agreed!
Hot, hot, hot chocolate, and Fast and Furious: North Pole drift is just lit with this movie.
Starring: The Uncanny Valley.
I’ve seen this movie like 30 times and I’ll never be bored of it ever
Me too. I love this version and I don't much care for the first one. I'll watch it now and then but it annoys me every time I see Charle's grandad just tell him to break the rules and he does. The OG premise was he would never do that.
same. it also makes me crave for chocolate
If this was the only movie I could keep in my collection, I'd be a-ok with it!
It would have been very interesting to hear Dahl himself’s thoughts on this version, especially given he HATED the original.
His family liked it and his wife said her husband would have approved but I would be nice if we could have heard his own words.
I read the book a few times growing up so I like this version the best, hard to top the OG tho but more liberties were taken with that one.
We missed out on 1990's Nick Cage being Willy Wonka. Such a shame.
Can you imagine a 90's era Wonka movie with a Nicolas Cage freak out scene? I can.
Epic voice guy "wow they're pale even by British standards"😂😂😂 said it with such emotion got me rolling on the first line lmao
I'll always have a huge soft spot for this movie. So many great moments and quotable lines. It's just so bonkers, I love it. And Danny Elfman's score. I mean come on, it goes so hard.
I can't believe it needs to be pointed out at this late date, but Depp's Wonka was not based on Michael Jackson at all, but on Mr. Teatime (pronounced Teh-ah-tim-eh) from Terry Pratchett's Hogfather movie
Wonka definitely has a pile of children's teeth somewhere in his factory
@@Daft_Vader YES. And the tooth fairy probably
I was going to mention the pronunciation.... But you got there first. P.S. don't set Banjo, or the Scissorman, on me!@@MrCarlbrooks
Suuuure
He also said he based his performance on George W. Bush if he was stoned.
I appreciate this trailer for not making too many comparisons to the first or using subjective words.
Veruca also represents greed. Mike also represents sloth.
Greed is Avarice. And yeah, Mike in the end is arguably Sloth. This Mike is just full of untreated rage issues
Mike seems like wrath
@@Heavenlyhounds96Avarice is Gluttony Veruca is Greed.
if anything, shouldn't charlie's grandparents be sloth? grandpa joe couldn't walk for years while his son and his wife slaved to keep them alive, but now that he can tour a chocolate factory he's jumping and dancing?
My knowledge of Green Lantern lore, and Larfleeze, says avarice and greed are the same thing.
A) I actually really like this movie, even without "pure imagination". This movie really does not deserve the hate it gets. Like come on, the one there is a good remake B) While I also enjoyed the wonka movie for the most part, I certainly prefer the dentist origin story over the whimsicle version of the wonka movie. It's just more unique and kinda funny that he basicly became a candy master out of spite. XD
Technically it's an adaptation, but yes, I love that part too!
CGI was actually used sparingly in this movie (for example, the most of the Loompah’s are the same actor who’s just been recorded doing the same thing in a different position over and over again)
The timing to this is hilarious. Just watched this last night for the first time in like 15 years.
I watched both a couple days ago in prep for the new movie, read the book too so I could compare the three
2:05-Tim Burton Easter Egg: Smilex (Batman) to anyone that might correct me that its spelled with Y not I I'll admit my bad but its a reference to one of his works which is Batman
Some people like milk chocolate (1971 version) and some like dark chocolate (2005 version). And some don’t have to choose and like both 😊
Or neither, but I realize that I am the only one in that department.
@@MaiAoleithat means you have no soul
@@truedarkness4052 That's what those guys said, while they were beating me up after I kicked that puppy.
"keeping 4 pensioners locked up in bed should get them £3000 a month" You'd think it would work that way, but honestly town councils here in the UK will do anything to not give families the support they need
So he is MICHAEL JACKSON low key.. Got it!!!😂
Maybe the writers were trying to tell us something we already knew. Grooming kids into his own twisted image, the 'prize' if you could prove you were virtuous was to sleep overnight forever... Wait, am I talking about Wonka or MJ?
Why would anyone on a compare an eccentric pale guy who runs a chocolate factory and turns kids into blueberries to an eccentric pale guy who builds a theme park in his backyard and dangles babies over balconies... Okay, I get it.
This adaptation is complete bonkers, and i love it 😂😂
1:44 I may have an explanation for this: his dad was constantly putting him under to fix his teeth and so the laughing gas never fully wore off!
Deep Roy who played the Oompa Loompas actually played every single one of them in every song, and they were all edited together into one shot
"HBC who appears like beetlejuice when you say Johnny Depps name 3 times " Haha they are in every tim burton movie together.
This one might be more accurate to the book but I still prefer the Gene Wilder version.
Still the best adaptation of the book.
1:44 jesse eisenberg from BvS or Tommy Wiseau’s laugh montage from The Room
5:00 Hey I just saw They Live the other day! Now I finally get the reference.
This movie is hugely underrated!
no mention that the oompa loompa actors name is literally Deep Roy lmao
5:37 Sure, that might be hilarious in FUTURE court, but since Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was set in the 1920s, you would need to reflect on laws from that era, when many of the Central Powers from WWI had to give up their colonies. After all, who knows how many laws we've broken in 2123.
except the gene wilder one isn't "the original one". the book is, and this adaptation is a lot more faithful to the book than the other movie. in fact, even the author of the books hated the first movie, since they made that Wonka way too likeable, compared to how he was portrayed in the book.
3:27 that's it I'm calling oompaloompa resources
The video is fun, but it warms my heart to see how many people wrote about their love for the movie in the comments. This film is the beginning of my love for filmmaking
2:31 YO WAIT, THAT'S LITTLE CHARLIE'S ACTOR ! What a career character arc 👀✨️
The sequal looks good
"Mumbler!!"
I’m surprised Honest Trailers hadn’t done this earlier.
“British Dentist” got me
4:18 literally my reaction to this film!
madness? THIS! IS! HALLOWEEN!!
I really enjoyed both also The wakanda forever got me WHEEZING Would of never noticed if you didn't mention it
I can't wait for when you guys do Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day (2014)
5:17 I think it worked! 😂🎉
1:07 completely made up profession😂😂😂
when Americans try to say something like 'quid' naturally - Im pretty sure it means an angel got their wings... cause I hear a bell ringing
*Still asking for an HT for "Planes, Trains and Automobiles!" :D*
Depp nailed that role.
Back when I first heard about this I actually thought this was a sequel. With Charlie already owning the factory and passing it onto a new kid.
No that's Snowpiercer (there's a very famous Youtubr video fan theory about that) ;)
@@goodial Lulyeah reference?

I don’t care how many adaptations they make. I’m always down for anything The Chocolate Factory. Can’t go wrong with a movie about candy and chocolate. 😋
nothing i love more than getting all up in someones Chocolate Factory
Willy Wonka does own people, though
may I interest you of a DnD campain set in the world of Candyland with the ambiance of Game of Throne. It's called A Crown of Candy by D20. *diabetes away*
@@stoodmuffinpersonal3144 and what do you want me to do about it?
They also made a version with Tom & Jerry (based on the Wilder one)
I unironically think this film deserves more love than it originally got.
@@coyer137 Because it's closer to the original source material than the original film and I have warmed up to Johnny Depps portrayal of Willy Wonka.
@@coyer137 This Willy Wonka is the most relatable. Especially for those who really connect with the work of Tim Burton.
@@coyer137 Believe it or not he is!
@@coyer137 Because Gene Wilder is also very different from him. Willy had a tendency to act out in the book whenever the kids misbehaved. Gene never does outside of one instance. Even then he's more worried about his chocolate rather than Augustus.
@@coyer137 Yes. He's an eccentric nutcase with a boyish bravado, part mad scientist and part Alice in Wonderland-style loony. He's far from the character Gene Wilder played.
OMG I did not know that the actor that played Charlie Bucket plays the main character in the good doctor!
The actor also played Norman Bates in a t.v. shows called "Bates Motel" a while ago. ❤❤❤ Highly recommend watching it! 😆
If it ain't weird, it ain't Burton.
I always enjoyed this one more than the original. it also brings me memories of the first time I watched it in the theater on ecstacy. I still watch it from time to time now and still love it, sober of course. lol
from what i know dahl's family preferred this one too. dahl himself wasn't a fan of the original. thought wilder's performance was too mean.
God, it’s so relieving to know other people share this opinion. I thought I just had awful taste for years but I love the way this one expands on Wonka’s personality and embraces the absurdity of Roald Dahl’s humor while still making the chocolate factory almost look like it could work.
Finally someone else who prefers this version, I was feeling like the only one
I agree 100%
@@SomewhatSlightlyBoredDahl refused the sequel book to be adapted because he didn’t like the Gene Wilder movie. That’s why this one lacks the sequel hook.
This movie isn't just trying to remake the older movie, it's actually a far more accurate adaptation of the original book.
I don't remember the paint your face white part in any of Dahl's books. Matilda, James and the giant Peach and Charlie and the chocolate factory, off the top of my head all the adults were very evil and hated children. but the 'back story' is not in Dahl's original book nor is the paint your face white which Depp does in every movie.
The best thing about this film is still Kevin Eldon and Mark Heap just randomly appearing in a cameo walking dogs.
I was waiting for a LOTR joke about saruman, thanks 😊
Please do an Honest Trailer for Scrooged
Oh yes, the superior adaptation that people didn't like. Super underrated.
I wholeheartedly agree, especially since it was a pretty faithful adaptation of the source material. I guarantee most Wilder Stans haven't read the book.
Facts.
Depp was doing Michael Jackson for Wonka, while Jesse Eisenberg was doing Depp's Wonka for Lex Luthor in Batman v Superman.
Say "from now on, call me.... velvet thunder" R.i.p. Andre Braugher
The reboot of the reboot of the reboot …
The second adaptation of the novel
This movie isn't a remake of the gene wilder one but a adaption of the book. And a perfect one at that
Can you say 'From now on, call me Velvet Thunder. ' In memory of Andre Braugher ❤
Do screen junkies know that Charlie and the chocolate factory is a book by Roald Dahl? So original would be that. Then there was the American "original" which has quite a different story/motive. Then this movie came along that is possibly the best adaptation of the book I can imagine!
I've always loved this version and I never understood the hate.
Same, I really enjoyed the children in it, they were funny and had personality, well Charlie was boring.
People usually only love the remakes of beloved classics if its close enough to the original to remind them of it, otherwise they just don't like it by default. This one is just too different to the original film for some to get behind. I peronsally love this version, love both of them, but this one has a special place in my heart cause I saw it first.
I too love both of them. The remake is actually why I want to make movies
@@rachelroth4239i found out about the original when i was 16 lol
Nostalgia
Unpopular opinion but I actually loved this film. Depp made the character his own, and the camp of it all (including the CGI) seemed quite fitting.
You’d probably be shocked to learn how much of it was done with practical effects
2:25 i didn't know that Freddie Highmore played charlie in this film untill i heard it here! 😅
I was waiting for that Michael Jackson reference 😂
Wonkanda forever was under-appreciated...
Please do an honest trailer for Scooby-Doo 1 and 2
"Saruman the Whitening" is probably the best joke in the video, and that's saying a lot.
Please say "Thats got to be the pirate ive ever seen"
This was one of my favorite movie remakes💯
"Wonkandan forever"...I damn near pissed my pants. LOL
For Andre Braugher can you please say. "Every time someone steps up and says who they are, the world becomes a better, more interesting place."?
I find the comparison between Willy Wonka and this really interesting. The former being a timeless classic despite not being faithful to the book and the latter is more faithful to the book but is… not a timeless classic.
