Honestly power rangers 2017 is pretty high up for me if not at the top because of how special that franchise was to me growing up. Other contenders are la la land, mama Mia 2, the court jester Also.a big part of "favorite" to me is rewatchability. Like recently I was enamored by civil war, but I also am like "that was rough don't want to watch that for a long time" Or how I think guardians of the galaxy 3 might be netter than 2, but 2 is more of a comfort movie with a tight script and is super rewatchable

The wildest plot contrivance in this move is that, despite narrowly escaping drowning in a vat of chocolate, Wonka still decides having the giant chocolate river in his factory is a good idea.

The problem is, you can't use songs and iconography from the 1971 movie if you don't want it to be compared to it. The studio wants it both ways: use recognizable imagery from a beloved movie but then claim it is a separate thing that can't be compared. This is something the Johnny Depp one at least tried to pull off to make it more clear it was an adaptation of the book, not a movie reboot. Not doing that means you can only treat this as a prequel to Gene Wilder's version, and it looks much worse from the comparison.

Guys the reason why Timothee Chalamet as a young Wonka is more whimsical compared to Gene Wilder’s is because after having his secret recipes stolen by the Chocolate Cartel and locking himself in the factory with no workers to talk to for twenty years is when he goes crazy. That’s why Timmy’s Wonka is more optimistic and hopeful to begin with. By the way, that wasn’t the real Slugworth in the original, he was a man named Mr Wilkinson who was pretending to be Slugworth as part of the test it’s literally mentioned in the original movie. Also the meaning of the Golden Ticket in the end isn’t that Wonka had to appreciate the people he had to share chocolate with. It’s that because throughout the movie Willy just aspired to be the best chocolatier and have the best chocolate store ever he had to learn that making chocolate is mainly about making people happy which he did as the movie progressed

I agree. I didn’t see it as “lol he’s FAAAAT!!!” and more of “lol he’s so corrupt he can’t even hide it anymore!” If he was just eating chocolate alllll the time yet skinny, it would not show you how damn much he was really in it and non stop bribed and eating it. Don’t act like eating chocolate non stop won’t make you fat. Hell, look at Augustus in the original film! He’s a fat boy because he eats a lot! Is that the joke??? No. But it causes him to uncontrollably guzzle Wonka’s chocolate stream which causes him to likely die horrifically in that tube/burned to death. Actions have consequences. Charlie and his deadbeat grandpa lucked out they didn’t get chopped up for stealing that drink and lucked out Wonka killed all the other kids.

My interpretation of Wonka is that he is a good, eccentric man who was driven into isolation by others’ greed (especially the corporate espionage of people stealing his ideas) - the darkness in Gene Wilder’s Wonka is because of decades of isolation and paranoia around other people, and in a way finding Charlie is him opening back up to the world - while testing people’s intentions to ensure his factory is safe. His eccentricities are genuine, but it’s also a mask he uses to protect himself and his factory.

I’m in the minority who likes it more. It has a more consistent visual style that’s in line with the book’s tone. There are great songs, the actors are great. While Depp is very different from the original story, Wilder has a cynicism(The entirety of the 1971 film does to varying extents. The book was dark, but in a fairytale way where the whimsical aspects are usually sincere and fun to balance it out.) that means he never quite reaches that status of perfect portrayal for me, either. He’s much closer, but I do think the Depp-Wilder comparison isn’t as clear cut as people say. Between Wilder’s unpredictability and passion and Depp’s wild joy and quirkiness is my ideal film Wonka.

Good video. I agree with a lot of what you said and it accurately summarizes my feelings on the movie as a whole. However, i would like to disagree with you on three main points. First, the similarities and differences with Timothee Wonka and Wilder Wonka. When I was intially watching the movie, I kept having this odd feeling of Timothee being so close to pulling off Wilder but not quite matching the energy. After a lot of reflection, ive determined that most of the issue comes less with Timothee's performance or the even the dialouge and much more so the directorial framing of what was being said. In the orignina Willy Wonka, the odd and off-color things Wonka said were framed non-chalantly. His weirdness was emphasized through by allowing the camera to see him the way that a real person would see him if they were interacting irl. In this new movie, most of the odd or off-color things said were focused on too much. It felt like the director was going "ohhh look how quirky and weird he is. Isnt that so much like Wilder". Which ruined the effect of the writing and performance. In that way, I think the strangeness, mystery, and intimidation of Wonka is lost. The second thing I'd disagree on is the subplots. Even though I agree some things were not properly implemented into the story (the other hotel servants). I would disagree with you on the idea that every subplot needs to comment on something or exist for a specified purpose. Many of the subplots in Wonka exist as comedic fodder for the movie. The chocolate cartel isnt a cartel because they want to make a statment about monopolization or illegal manufactoring. The chocolate cartel is a cartel because its a funny premise to make something as normal and wholesome as chocolate and turn it into a obsessed over substance that it would need a cartel. Which reflects Rahl Dahl's absurdist humor and specifically the obsession that people have over chocolate specifically in the world of Willy Wonka. Its a similar situation with the servents. They dont exist to comment on indentured servitude, but because it leans into the absurdist humor of several very well off, educated, and talented people working for the stupidest people in the movie. Again, i agree that the servents werent well integrated into the story, but i will defend the basis for their existance. Noodle is a slightly different story is that i think she is necessary. Because Wonka as a character is at his best when he's bouncing off someone else. And Noodle serves as a straight man to his chaotic humor. The third thing I would argue on is Willy's want versus his need. I agree on your anaylsis of his want, however, i would argue the point of his need is slightky different enough to create the diparity your talking about in the movie. Wonka's need is not that he "needs to appreciate those around him". His need is to learn how to evaluate himself through things other than his achievements. And one of the ways to do that is to learn to see yourself as others (like Noodle) see you. This aligns much closer with the actual character arc that takes place in the movie. He appreciates people, but he doesnt value himself through the lens of those he affects. Only by arbitrary standards he's created for himself. And by interacting and growing with the side charaters, he learns that his worth and value is not about being the best, its about making a difference with those who truky matter. His mother's "secret ingredient" for the chocolate perfectly shows this. The thing that made the chocolate good wasnt some arbitrary "best" ingredient, its that she took the time and effort to make it for her child.

He is still in his optimistic phase. I also like this movie as a reimagining because it becomes its own thing. I feel the homage to the original is just that. A homage to acknowledge that they recognize the original, but not trying to copy it. What I love about the music is what some love about Mary Poppins Returns. It pays homage to the classic/traditional musicals, but they are their own thing. While I do agree with your points about some of the writing and characterization, I feel there is much love and care with the making of it.

Willy wonka and the chocolate factory, same as Matilda and other movies in the 90s, were sort of a comfort to me as a child. Like many of my generation, I was basically raised by the TV, so saw lots of different stories and morals through stories in movies and TV. But it wasn't only entertaining and educational but reassuring as, in my situation, I was neglected and abused as a child so watching movies and stories about children with idiotic and/or openly harmful adults around them who basically learn to think for themselves, often by literally battling the adults around them to become better than the adults in their lives. I doubt I expressed that well, but that is part of these movies charms. It's children learning to think for themselves and explore the difference between children who copy their parents' teachings vrs those who challenge them. Or, even better, take the best parts of their parents teaching. Like Matilda literally stands up to her adult bullies, explored how not all adults are safe, trustworthy or worth obeying and she stands up for herself but yet also learns to accept influence from, while simultaneously positively influencing, a safe adult in Miss Honey. And in Willy wonka and the chocolate factory you've got Charlie, a poor child who's experienced neglect and abject poverty but still has experienced some love, within the context of their situation, and that's his normal state. Then as he goes on to explore the wonderfully fascinating chocolate factory where he can eat without worrying but he's also surrounded by examples of other children, who should be his peers but due to his poverty never feels like peers, who're corrupted by their parents to be self destructive. Leading to Charlie needing to decide who he is, what his values are, to think for himself within and despite the expectations of the adults who're trying to influence him. A lot of stories in the 80s, 90s and early 00s were heavily about childism and teaching children morals and values through contrasting child and adult mentalities and moralities.

Wonka was a pretty good movie, all it lacked was challenge. Sure, it had a conflict with the bribery, but I didn't really feel like the characters struggled to resolve the conflict. This really shows the strength of the Gene Wilder version because you do see Wonka's struggle to find an heir that has what it takes to succeed.

Another message in Willy that gets missed is one of accountability, as opposed to perfection. Charlie screws up and makes a decision as bad as any of the other children. The difference is that he takes accountability. While he doesn't do so in words, he doesn't contradict Willy, beg to keep the lifetime supply of chocolate, or offer any excuses or defenses but then he willingly surrenders the EL Gobstopper--which he was NOT asked to do. Many movie protagonists these days are portrayed as perfect just the way they are, and only need others to recognize it or get out of their way... but NO ONE is perfect. That's the beauty of Willy. It's cynical enough to know we're selfish, self-centered beings, but it's hopeful that some of us will rise above it. That's the essential nature of Willy in the movie. I don't see him as a con-man, but a man of contradictions. He is innocent, but he is also world-weary. He is generous, but is a capitalist. He is kind, but is callous. He is flawed and unworthy, but... this is why he is so joyous at the end. Charlie's selfless act doesn't just mark his own redemption, but Willy's, and it puts truth to his hope that goodness exists in the world and thus, in himself. Not only does this lend the character a strong sense of pathos, but it draws a nice parallel with Charlie.

29:30 Okay, im someone who thinks Willy Wonka in every version is somewhere on the autism spectrum. They all show different signs that are common in the diagnoses such as not understanding social cues, having a fixation on one or more things(chocolate (+magic in chalamet's case)), and stims. (GW - messing with his cane and eating/sucking on sweets, JD - laughing and talking about candy, and TC - fidgeting with items and moving hands/fingers) While this is not a solid nor confurned theory, it leads me to believe that Timothée's gestures that seem awkward or awfully timed with no real effect on the story could be a nervous stim in new situations. Essentially, it was an improvised moment to do something with his hands to relieve anxiety or stress. (I am not a professional in any way, i do my own research and studying and have also based it off of personal experiences. WW is not confirmed autistic and likely will never be, this is a fun theory to add personal depth to a character, not a person.)

You just hit the nail on the head for me at less than 9 minutes in! After watching the Wonka movie I was left perplexed on how Timothee Chalamet's Wonka became the one we see in the 'future', whichever adaptation of the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory you prefer. I prefer Gene Wilder's myself but I did grow up with it. It was a fun movie to watch, don't get me wrong, but I was trying to figure out how they meant to explain this Wonka going forward and becoming the jaded, darker person Willy Wonka later became.

You really nailed this analysis. When watching this movie myself, I found it a fine enough movie to be enjoyable, but whenever they tried to make it...wonka-esk, it ended up just taking me out of the emersion somehow, and i couldnt really figure out why it felt that way. It felt like they were trying to shoehorn the wonka aspect of wonka in so much that it felt so out of place and looped right back around to being why it DIDNT feel like a movie made to be a wonka movie. It felt like a movie wearing wonkas clothing rather than a movie about wonka. Every wonka action felt like it either hit as funny, quirky or so jarringly "look how funny and quirky willy wonka is!" that it makes the movie feel like its trying too hard. That and this disjointedness of the story that i would look past in most musicals but feels confusing why they included them in a wonka movie when it doesnt really enhance the movie, it just sort of...happens. I feel like if it was trying to be a purely original story, there would be more focus on making the story have a proper theme and have their story decisions enhance the plot. It was a fine movie, enjoyable enough to watch, but it would have been better if it wasnt a wonka movie. Though....I doubt they'd make nearly as much money if that was the case, so it was probably never meant to be.

I was hoping to see at least one comment referencing Snowpiercer or the fan theory, but all I got was one Dune reference. Just imagine, though: a crossover between Willy Wonka, Dune, Snowpiercer and Infinity Train. _A young Wonka got mysteriously sent into a weird world, finds out it's within a massive and very long train that's continuously traveling in the middle of a desert. He somehow misses the point of the train and why he's in there, journeys through many cars and meeting fellow passengers along, and eventually reaches the engine which is unoccupied. The whole journey made him into a madman. He declares himself the Chosen One, The Messiah - "Muad'dib" as the more veteran passengers prophesized, and he now rules the entire train; he has the most numbers on him out of all the passengers of the train._

for me, an important factor to consider is that WONKA sets place before the information wars, so he is still yet to gain that cynicism we see in Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory, meaning that the traits like whimsy and optimism are greatly magnified while the cunning and such are less developed, so i feel that it's somewhat unfair to compare those two interpretations of the character because of how they're set at different points in wonka's life, and as such are trying to magnify different aspects of the character

Your point about the necessity to expose children to the dangers of the real world through fiction is absolutely spot on.

Gene Wilder said he would not do the role unless they made the gag about him coming out with a cane limping, got it stuck in the sidewalk, and then fell into a cartwheel.

even though it seems like the movie Wonka is a prequal. i do not think it is not a prequal because there is a movie that was rumored or such to be a prequal you wont think is a prequal until you go into the lore. there is a video talking about that. for me i feel like Wonka is a separate universe. (i know this is not related to the video but i had to mention such possibly.) Wonka vs Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory is two different sides but take willy wonka in two different directions. that is why the movie i am going to mention is a sort of prequal to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory. the movie in question is Snowpiercer which i find interesting. the video i need to mention about that is made by Rhino Stew.

Like every thing about it is so absurdly stupid it’s kinda charming to me, I don’t think it’s amazing but like, I mean, how can I not love a story about a chocolate drug cartel, the cococaine puns are to perfect, and the fact that the magic chocolate hallucinogens are just way to hilariously similar to spice in dune to not make me love it

The plot of Wonka should have been : Wonka is back from his travels/training to fulfil his childhood dream of being a master chocolatier in his hometown just in time to find evil chocolate maker guys closed their manufacturing plants in 'Vague Chocolate Based Industrial Town' to use cheap outsourced and exploited labour(the oompa loompas in loompa land, which has been industrialized/colonized into a choclate manufacturing wasteland by the other choclatiers), the townsfolk have been pushed into poverty because there's no work etc, wonka purchases one of the old facilities for cheap, revitalizes the local economy with the skills all these people already have and his innovative recipes, people start selling his secret recipes, he is enraged and infuriated at what he perceives to be a slight against 'everything he did for them', fires them all and closes the factory, puts it up for sale, goes to his competitor with his hat in hand ready to sell all his recipes or whatever, discovers the oompa loompas being exploited and offers them better working conditions in his factory OR an oompa loompa hears about this master chocolatier and strikes a deal to a similar end, wonka goes back to 'Vague Chocolate Based Industrial Town' because it's not like he can afford a factory in Skyrocketing Colonized Chocolate Capital of The World Loompa Land with his new workforce who are both better compensated than they were in the competitors factories AND probably were treated badly enough there that they would never ever sell recipes to them, the factory reopens, the film ends with a scene where noodle (who has been there the whole time teaching him to read, doing the business end of the business and heisting rare ingredients, making his weird chocolates that he makes in his lab possible on large scales but shes practical and he's a artist to there's kind of a diametric opposition there, and was also fired his tragic downfall and isolation but that is not going to keep her down) is about to buy the chocolate factory to refit into a new business and wonka begs her not to with a reprise from an earlier song, she agrees and he''s like 'i never should have fired you come back' but she's a strong independent girlboss and there's plenty of old chocolate factories around here, and wonka's like 'you aren't going to open a chocolate factory are you?' (in a way that implies he will destroy her if she does) and she's like 'i've run the numbers and i'm going to open a toothpaste factory' and they part ways on good terms. This would have set everything up and made Wonka seem unhinged and unpredictable, but not entirely like a guy who couldn't be nice because he has sort of become what he hates but in contrasting his treatment of the oompa loompas to the other guys treatment of them he's like. maybe you could fix him. also would have helped with the fact the the Oompa Loompas are a very questionable story thing to begin with.

From what I've heard Gene Wilder when he took the role of Wonka wanted his character to be untrustworthy...that's why he wanted his entrance to be pretending to be feeble and falling but then turning that into a forward tumble roll and standing up with a wide smile and presentation. Gene WANTED that to be the moment you realized you couldn't exactly trust Wonka 100% and that on looking back at the movie it could be taken different ways...such as his remarks when bad things happen to the children seeming as if he's either A) uncaring at best or B) taking pleasure in their actions having such drastic payback for them.

I found Wonka a really enjoyable movie. Though if one were to have higher critical expectations of it, it would fall kinda short. I love Roald Dahl’s writing style because of how passionate it is. It is whimsical in an almost spontaneous overflowing way, with this dark, slightly disturbing undertone that is masked by the humorous manner in which he is depicting everything. It’s a style that carries over to his short stories for adults too, in fact it only gets more extreme and wildly imaginative in his stories for more mature readers. The Wonka movie was just pleasant all around, there wasn’t really anything that felt “off” about any situation to give it that unique edge the original stories had Someone in this comment section mentioned creating more dichotomy of a dull city and the magic and wonder Wonka brings to it. The Tim Burton movie captured that pretty well I think. I don’t really have any ideas on how to change the story itself (I actually found many of the ideas really charming and good), but visually I think it could have stood to be more striking and bold. Then again that’s a problem many films face nowadays, that ‘clean’ look

I saw more of a resemblance to the American musical version of Wonka (originated by Christian Borle) specifically with a few key lines that reference songs from the musical. The musical version also just isn't written as sinister or a liar like Wilder's Wonka is shown to be. That and all the music in Wonka are what convince me he's the musical origin, not the movie origin.

Never seen Wonka myself but random whimsy might work if it's part of a growth arc into a showman. Maybe he starts out as a magician but that constantly fails him as he learns to become a convincing showman.

I mean, if they stayed to that, we’d see how he had brought on the lot of them instead of one

@22:44 My chief issue with the 2017 Power Rangers movie is the completely different criteria for the rangers. While all the Power Rangers seasons are different, one thing that they ALL have in common is that the rangers, both in and out of armor, are do-gooders. With the narrative exception of the Black Ranger from Power Rangers RPM and the nuanced Green Ranger from the same iteration, the Power Rangers are trusted with the responsibility of being Power Rangers because they are trustworthy and responsible people. In the 2017 version, they meet in Detention. They become rangers by accident. They flee the police. They cause car accidents and explosions. The Pink Ranger sent nude photos of a girl she didn't like around the school. The Red Ranger drove recklessly committing a school prank. The Blue Ranger brought a bomb to school. Are they more realistic teenagers? Sure. Are they people you would want at the controls of a building-sized weaponized robot? They clearly decided that the goody-2-shoes of the original power rangers wouldn't play well, but it was one of the common threads across all the iterations that they ditched.
