Apparently Gene Wilder improvised much of the movie. The intro of Wonka where he puts on a walk with a limp using the cane and then magically forward rolls implying he is fine was improvised. When asked the reason why Gene wanted to do that. He replied, because then it will add to the already established fact that we the viewers and characters never know when Wonka is being serious or not
@@salag13 I've read some time before, that this scene wasn't known to the actors except Wilder, who was told to chant this poem from the original book. The tunnel and all the tripping is a one shot and the reactions are genuine, from what I've read. And I don't know what would be more impressive: if this all really was a one shot or if they actually knew what happened and just acted. XD
Fun fact: Gene Wilder’s acting during the tunnel scene was so convincing the others thought he literally gone mad explaining why their petrified faces is genuine.
That’s probably my favorite line in the movie. Partially because most of the comments that come out of his mouth are pure imagination (but mostly sarcasm and derision) but that line sounds like a genuine question without any malice to it
I really love how when he first meets the kids he’s kind and sweet but once he realizes what horrible brats they are he turns the passive aggressive sarcasm up to 11 😂
I agree that Wilder's Wonka has a more sinister edge to him. You get the feeling that despite his joviality, there's a terrible fate in store for you if you displease him. Hell, when Mike signs the contract and brings up the movie where the husband kills his wife for the insurance money, Wonka says "Clever" like he appreciates the scheme. He's clearly a dude with some underlying rage and I would not want to be on his bad side.
One of the ALL TIME BEST MOVIES MADE. I never tire of the 70’s cinematography. He was one heck of an actor/ entertainer. This movie will entertain any age children- adults, forever!
Movie Charlie definitely represents envy. The opening scene in the movie where he's looking at the other kids in the candy shop and right before his mothers song he's clearly envious of other people getting the ticket. Also, lust is not always sexual. You can lust for other things, hence terms like bloodlust.
I must have watched this movie at least 50 times as a kid. I had it recorded from TV on an old VHS Tape. Perspective is everything, Now seeing this as an adult, the entitlement and wicked attitudes of the parents in particular are astounding. There are several interesting undertones within this film. You can pick up on something new every time you see it.

Everyone tries to compare the different versions but they just aren't meant to be, they're completely different, and they send completely different messages. I don't see why you can't enjoy both.
Thank you. These are supposed to be two completely different Willy Wonkas with two completely different approaches to adapting the character. Depp will always be my Wonka, personally, as I grew up with him, and he simply just resonates with me more. (I also find it a bonus to know that he's more accurate to the book.) However, I still gotta give Wilder the credit he's due. His Wonka is still a good character in his own right divorced from other iterations, and Wilder's phenomenal acting did wonders to breathe life into this Willy Wonka
Theyre both well adapted from the original Wonka in the book and both bring life to character and succeeded at making an entertaining movie, they just took different creative paths, gene wilders wonka focus on the og Wonka's more manic and passionate traits and Johnny Depp's took on more of the og's social awkward and sassy tendencies amongst other things. They're both loyal to original material and portrayed a valid perspective of the story. Johnny's Wonka movie wasn't a remake of Gene Wilders, it was it's own adaptation of the book so it's redundant to even compare them in all honestly, the books title is Charlie and the chocolate factory but when making genes movie they changed it bc Willy Wonka is a more attention grabbing while promoting the movie, Johnny's movie chose the original book title because it wouldn't make sense not to since they wanted to be as clear as possible this wasn't a remake it was it's own adaptation. I really don't think someone who wanted to remake the gene wilder version would call up Tim Burton to direct. It could be argued Depp's version is more dedicated to the source material only because they had the means to portray things in the book that are more complex than they did in '71. So Genes movie had more tweaks to the plot and created a few full scenes that weren't canon to the book at all but were needed to keep the story moving and they did it fantastically.
@@morgancampbell2888 probably coz it has kids in it and they get eliminated one at a time. I agree, it's a dumb comparison to make. Like a child would make. Lol, idiot (the OP)
R.I.P Gene Wilder ♥ I love this movie mainly cause I've seen it multiple times. Gene has made willy wonka as a colorful man with a bit of unexpected twist.
The best part is how the other guy is like “yeah! I’m on board and here to say it with you!” But then as Wilder keeps going, he starts to literally frighten the guy to the point where he doesn’t know what to do 🤣
“We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of the dreams !” Don’t get the impression that he is counting her among the “we”! I do love this little exchange ! Combined with the face grab I’d always found it threatening ! Wilder really did a great job with a very strange character !
3:03 If it was Johnny Depp's Willy Wonka recreating this scene, something tells me he'd make it just as unhinged and petrifying but instead of screaming at the kids and parents after his speech, he'd be maniacally laughing.
The tunnel scene was actually filmed in an exploratory section of tunnel bored out under the sea in Folkstone 20 years before construction on the actual tunnel began. They had to do in in about 40 takes however as it was only 400 meters long. During filming speeds of up to 31 mph were reached, drawing safety concerns from the film crew.
Look, I like both, Gene Wilder & Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka, but I definitely feel like Gene is the better Wonka, I just feel like he fits Wonka’s character better than Johnny.
Wilder’s Wonka: Likeable, Wise, generally friendly, tries to teach the 4 kids a lesson for their own good Depp’s Wonka: Irritable, sarcastic, a bit Childish and immature, intends to punish the 4 kids out of spite and annoyance
@@BlueLion1996 exactly why I am attracted to Depp's version. In my personal life, I hold back a lot in front of immature kids or people, am very patient, and try to accommodate to their needs no matter how spoiled or selfish; seeing someone on the movie screen say whatever they want and not care makes me feel a sense of relief.
We all need deserve different interpretations and the author of the book wasn't keen on some of the stuff in this film. Even though they consulted with him as they made the film.
Methinks the answer is simple: time and experience. He's no longer the hopeful naive rookie chocolatier portrayed by Chalamet by the time the movie starts
i’m sorry but if u take me on a chocolate river boat ride .. and decide to recite that speech.. get ready to see me swim back, f a golden ticket 🙏🏾👍🏾🏊🏾♀️

That explains why Mr. Salt awkwardly says “rowing” when he’s tripping in the boat.

Genius. He was such a character. Apparently in his house he had doors that lead to nowhere and little quirky things like that.
Gene was coached in the walking and tumble stunt by Robert Shields of Shields and Yarnell mime fame, also coached Michael Jackson and his moon walk...

Had to google as thought it was too awesome to be true, but it is true! What a man.
I've always thought that the movie would have been improved significantly had that scene been cut.

Stop. Don't. Come back.

“Help. Police. Murder.”

Literally me tho tbh

Gene Wilder’s Mr.Wonka scares me more than Johnny Depp’s Mr.Wonka. Somehow Wilder’s take on the character seems more unhinged with rage

Wise man once said You don't get to the top clean
There’s nothing to fear. The only fears you have are the ones you take with you.
Neither have ever frightened me lol
Yeah. Like the Gene Wilder version you do not know if you should trust him or not.
You could sensibly interchange every actor and actress in this but Gene Wilder and it'd be the same movie, he's magical
I don’t disagree but I love peter ostrum as Charlie
I think all the actors were chosen greatly, not a single one I'd change or have any kind of problem with
You will never see another Willy Wonka as great as Genes
That’s simple. Of course we won’t. There will never be second Gene for sure
He OWNS this role
“why, having fun?” What a lovely actor he was. A legend by himself!
One of the ALL TIME BEST MOVIES MADE. I never tire of the 70’s cinematography. He was one heck of an actor/ entertainer. This movie will entertain any age children- adults, forever!
I hated this movie as a kid. It never failed to scare me.

He's so paranoid in the tunnel scene he starting to scream first I couldn't resist laughing 😂😂
Rest in peace Gene Wilder probably the best person to play Willy Wonka
R.I.P Gene Wilder ♥
I love this movie mainly cause I've seen it multiple times. Gene has made willy wonka as a colorful man with a bit of unexpected twist.
“We are the music makers, we are the dreamers of dreams” SAY IT FREAKING LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
Help, please, murder... with such a CALM voice. Oh my. 😂
He knows what he's doing.
I love him he’s so sweet
I'd feel comfortable saying that Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka is the best film performance ever.
“Why? Having fun?”
As a kid i never realize how batshit gene wilder is in this movie
real
He was genius!!
Dont just stand there

One word comes to mind when I think of Willy Wonka, and the "we are the music makers" line all but confirms it for me. Fey
Cant belive this was released in 71 the humour is still funny 😂
I like Johnny Depp but Gene Wilder is the GOAT
Gene Wilder sucks. Johnny Depp is the GOAT
@@tizianoferrigno588 I am telling you mine opinion!!!
You know, the more I watch this the more I think Willy Wonka was just fucking with people this entire movie
I really can’t describe my love for this man .
I personally think that Wilder and Robin Williams would've gotten along swimmingly with each other before their deaths.
"OH NO MY CHOCOLATTE"
"help someone"
Help, police, murder
02:28 I want that whole thing tattooed, I already say it randomly just to scare people who haven’t watched it. 🤣🤣
Same
Did you do it? Lmao
The best part is how the other guy is like “yeah! I’m on board and here to say it with you!” But then as Wilder keeps going, he starts to literally frighten the guy to the point where he doesn’t know what to do 🤣
Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka: I love him 😍
Johnny Depp's Willy Wonka: I have scared for him 😖
My favorite movie, I remember being really sick watching this, and that tunnel scene fucked my head up so much, it was the worst fever dream.
Gene Wilder IS the one and only Wonka!
Happy 50th Anniversary Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory!!!!! 🍫🏭🎊🎉 Thank you for 50 Wonka-ful years!
The title should read "The Best of Willy Wonka." There is no other.
I remember watching this a ton when i was like 6
Fun fact : at the boat scene the actors weren’t infomate abhaut that that wonka is going be so crazy , so the reaction of the actors were legit
"We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of a dreams". No quote better than that back in the day.
My god, this movie aged masterfully. This Wonka is the best, he's the most sarcastic and therefore the funniest.
“We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of the dreams !” Don’t get the impression that he is counting her among the “we”! I do love this little exchange ! Combined with the face grab I’d always found it threatening ! Wilder really did a great job with a very strange character !
Fun Fact: The Chocolate River is actually from dirt and it was confirmed by the actors of the movie.
gross
Sure, the directors would make a child drink from a dirty river...
no i'm pretty sure it was colored water
It was actually water with gallons of chocolate and water mixture.
@@rachelsTimeTravel I mean the directors already let the child actors in the scary tunnel, why not dirty chocolate river.
Such a comedic genius Gene was!
You get nothing, you lose! Good day sir!
"what is this some sort of fun house!"

one of the best movies ever, I watched it so many times growing up

If you watch the tim Burton version you end up enjoying and appreciating the Gene Wilder version even more! So you ARE missing out 😅
With the new movie out, it begs the question: What happened between the end of Wonka and this movie to make him go insane?
Methinks the answer is simple: time and experience. He's no longer the hopeful naive rookie chocolatier portrayed by Chalamet by the time the movie starts
The new Wonka film isn’t a prequel to this movie. It’s a new iteration of the character
This is my favorite Willy Wonka
I actually knew that rhyme on the boat just from Marilyn Manson, so when I finally got around to watch this movie, it freaked me out even more.
" *DONT JUST STAND THERE DO SOMETHING!* "
" *help,police, a murder.* "
I love how when he's screaming in the tunnel it doesn't sound real!
Rest in peace Gene Wilder.
You will always be the 1 true Wonka.
The boat scene is so intense and dark I love it
Brilliant compilation, thanks
