Depp had the same unique nuttiness as Gene Wiler had. It felt different, of course, but it wasn't bad.

How can you say that? I mean come on, how can you say that? Depp's "unique nutiness" is NOTHING like Gene Wilder's. Depp's Willy Wonka is more reminiscient of Michael Jackson than Gene Wilder's version.

This movie sucked. If you liked the original I suggest seeing it agian instead of this garbage. It's mildy entertaining but it just doesn't do justice to the original so it ruins it all IMO. Just goes to show how amazing Gene Wilder was. He completely made the old movie and pretty much every movie he was in.

Willy Wonka is the original, Charlie is the remake. I refuse to see that pile of horseshit.

You know... it was a book to begin with.

Yes, I love when people try to be funny and sound dumb. Charlie is the original, as in the book. Willy Wonka was the movie where they changed the name.

This means nothing in this argument. Willy Wonka is still the original movie. Charlie is the remake.

Please explain how I sound dumb? I was correcting the OP so there was no confusion for anybody else. The remake is called Charlie & The Chocolate Factory and the original movie is called Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory.

They made WW a rambling idiot. No uniqueness that Gene Wilder had. Wilder's Wonka was clever and witty. Depp's is a [censored] idiot.

You can't say "same unique." Unique means one of a kind. If something is the same as something else, it's not unique.

This movie will be terrible. You can tell from the previews that it won't even touch the original. They made WW a rambling idiot. No uniqueness that Gene Wilder had. Wilder's Wonka was clever and witty. Depp's is a [censored] idiot.

SIDEBAR: how did the dahl book become nearly as famous as it did anyway? its just some random, pretty good kiddy story. i dont see anything so amazing about it that it deserves 2 movies and a threadslot on OOT.

From what I remember, WW was a wierdo in the books. The origional movie was a poor adaption, but a wonderful movie. I hear the new movie is truer to the books, I was a huge Dahl fan as a kid.
