    Big execs throwing darts at a wall of ‘IPs we haven’t ruined for 5 years’ finally hit on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory eh?

    I will add this to the big list of films that I choose to believe never happened.

      At the end of the day what matters is if it’s good, but this looks bad. Everything about it feels like it’s desperately trying to be whimsical but it’s all forced and flat.

      This brings up a good point actually. How are we feeling about Depp’s Willy Wonka almost 20 years later? People hated it when it first came out but I’ve heard more positive things in recent years. Allegedly it’s actually closer to the books than the Wilder version. But I’ve never read the book.

        It is closer but i was reaaalllly looking forward to hearing and seeing Johnny Depp’s wonka sing the boat song
