“Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory” Is Actually A Movie Full Of Jerks
Lookin’ at you, Grandpa Joe, you selfish scumbag.
1. OK, so the movie starts with Bill the chocolatier literally throwing free candy at a bunch of rich children…
2. Like, clearly he’s perfectly fine giving away candy to all of these privileged children…
3. BUT…the second little Charlie, who’s actually like the poorest kid in town, tries to buy one measly Wonka Bar, Bill suddenly wants his cash money.
DOUCHE MOVE, BILL.
4. NEXT…we have Grandpa Joe, who’s been lying in bed for like 20 years while his poor, worn-out daughter serves him cabbage water.
5. And his grandson, Charlie, has to help deliver newspapers and do laundry with a giant wooden fork…
6. All so Grandpa Joe can forgo his own responsibilities and lie around like a lifeless lump.
7. BUT… the minute Charlie comes running in with a golden ticket, Grandpa Joe is suddenly full of life…
8. Like, what a jerk move, Grandpa Joe. You couldn’t get up for TWENTY YEARS to help your daughter and grandson, but AS LONG AS THERE’S A TRIP TO THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY, TIME TO BUST A MOVE.
9. ALL THE WHILE, he sings *I* have a golden ticket, as if the prize belongs to him, when clearly, it belongs to his poor grandchild, Charlie.
Try thinking about another person for one second in your depressing life, Grandpa Joe.
10. Oh yeah, and what’s the first thing he does when he gets out of bed? He throws his clothes around the house, makes a mess that his daughter will probably have to clean up. What an asshole.
11. Not to mention…he keeps chocolate bars under his nasty-ass pillow. WHO KEEPS CHOCOLATE UNDER A PILLOW?! *Especially* a pillow that you’ve supposedly been sleeping on for like 20 years straight.
GROSS.
12. BUT ANYWAY… Later, when they’re in the Chocolate Factory, it’s actually Grandpa Joe who pressures Charlie into breaking the rules and swigging a bit of Fizzy Lifting Drink.
13. He puts his own selfish desires ahead of Charlie’s chance at a lifetime supply of chocolate…
14. And ruins everything because he couldn’t hold back his lust for a Fizzy Lifting Drink.
15. AND THEN…when Wonka understandably flips and tells Charlie to get out, Grandpa Joe immediately tells Charlie he should sell out and give Slugworth his Everlasting Gobstopper.
Thankfully, Charlie knows better and gives Wonka his candy back. But Grandpa Joe is still a jerk and the worst role model on Earth.
16. MOVING ON… Willy Wonka is a racist. I’m sorry, but all of these children are WHITE. If Wonka Bars are sold globally, statistically speaking, at least three of these children should be Asian…
But they’re not Asian, are they? No. Because Willy Wonka is a racist.
17. Then, of course, Willy Wonka gets all angry at Augustus Gloop when he jumps into the chocolate river. And Wonka’s legion of Oompa Loompas march out with a judgmental tune about gluttony…
18. BITCHES, you work at a chocolate factory. You gave up your right to judge fat children when you left Loompaland to mass-produce sugary treats for a deranged hermit.
19. Speaking of which, you’ll notice — AFTER Augustus almost dies in the chocolate river…
20. Wonka calls forth a boat that wouldn’t have had enough seats for Augustus and his mother, WHICH MEANS… he KNEW someone wasn’t gonna make it.
21. IN FACT…by the end of the movie, Wonka gets in a car with room for only FOUR guests. HE KNEW. HE KNEW THE WHOLE TIME. HE KNEW THE OTHER KIDS WOULD DIE.
22. Oh…and all that fuss about “contaminating” the Fizzy Lifting Drink tank. Wonka put USED SHOES into a recipe. And then he flips a shit about Charlie touching the walls of the tank with his hands. WTF, WONKA.
23. IN CONCLUSION: WONKA IS INSANE. GRANDPA JOE IS A LAZY ASS. AND EVERYBODY IN THIS MOVIE IS A JERK.
GOOD DAY.

Web Sta 2 months agoI think everyone knows this, but FWIW: It was all a setup, to test Charlie to take over the factory. Not just any kid. Just Charlie. The tinker, the guy with the knives: Wonka. In disguise. Quoting old fantastic, kind of unnerving poetry, as is his want. Wonka. And he thinks, “Nice kid, real poor, likes my factory, grandpa used to work here I think; He’ll do. Maybe. Still needs more testing” (like everything in his factory does, or so he says. So Wonka picks the worst kids he can find so Charlie remembers and learns to not, say, go swimming in the chocolate river, harassing the geese, etc. once everything is his. Gotta be responsible, all that candy-making (and potential eating) going on. Hence the fake Slugworth’s immediate appearance as each ticket is found. But mostly Wonka wants Charlie to be responsible enough to take the consequences for his actions. He is, and accepts the consequences; he lost, surrenders his will for greater good, and thereby wins. Standard hero stuff, but dramatic nonetheless. And so Wonka’s master plan works. Charlie gets the chocolate, factory, everything. Which makes Wonka, basically, into a God-figure. “Do good, learn along the way, be responsible, and I’ll give you everything I have.” As this one book I know says, “Ye are gods.” So, is the tour through the factory (i.e., LIFE) worth it? Well, as it turns out: yes. I mean, for the chocolate alone. Plus the whole, create-your-own-world stuff. Again, pretty typical metaphors, but dramatic nonetheless. And Wonka/God takes Charlie past some pearly gates (into the elevator) and together, they fly up into the heavens. The end. Again, probably totally obvious, but there it is. Tl;dr? Weird tinker man in video = Wonka = “God.” Have a nice day.

todda5 3 months agoJumping in late to the game here as I just stumbled on the link, but here’s something else to think of (Willy Wonka has been one of my favorite movies of all time since it came out in ‘71, so I’ve had over 40 years to think about this crap) - in the movie (not to be confused with the book, where this does NOT happen), “Slugworth” in several instances manages to be right on site when the children find their tickets. He’s in the nut factory when Veruca gets hers, and manages to be nearby and able to stop Charlie while he’s on the way home with his. Coincidence? Or did Wonka set up SPECIFIC kids to get the tickets, thus explaining how “Slugworth” was able to be around so quickly? It also explains that I have had way too much free time for the past four decades.

thesarahgreen 3 months agoWhy stop there?? That teacher was a jerk. All of the kids and parents were jerks. And what the hell Willy Wonka? If you really cared about your factory, why only five golden tickets?? Youve just narrowed it down to only FIVE kids?? Why not broaden your horozon? Why not 50 golden tickets? I feel like hes Donals trump. This is the Apprentice

Vic Wit 3 months agoThe same argument could be made for it being racist. The contest was held globally and yet 5 caucasian, ENGLISH speaking children won. Considering that if we lump all “non-white” ethnicities together, “white” is vastly out-numbered, that is one hell of a coincidence, m’dear. I could give you some mock odds, but I’ve alreasy invested more of my time into this rebuttal than is necessary. It was a funny, tongue in cheek post after all.

brennanm2 3 months agoI think the laziest and most selfish are the set of Grandparents who don’t get out of be at all. Chances are they are Charlie’s paternal grandparents which means they are free loading off a woman who isn’t their birth daughter. What Charlie’s dad had no other family they could mooch off?
