This. It's not quirky, it's jarring.The bit with the Oompa Loompa was cute but everything about this rings hollow. It wants to be whimsical but is instead spurious.
I don't think CGI helps attempts at live action fairy tales in the slightest. It doesn't look fantastical. It looks cheap.
I feel this about 99% of the movies he is in.And Timothee Chalamet seems like a miscast.
Yet still talk about it ad nauseam.I can't wait to skip this
Well yeah. The chukman doesn't let something like that stop him. And no, I don't have a Wonka top hat.Yet still talk about it ad nauseam.
yeah it looks bad. Another element. remember the real world outside of the Factory was normal and dreary. no one knew what was beyond the gates. here, they have everyone singing and dancing and watching magic out in giant crowds..I'm gonna be honest.
That looks fucking cringe.
From the focus on the BIPOC sidekick, the exaggerated dialogue style, the "we need to explain the origins of every little thing from the original", and the modern forced humor undercutting every serious moment.
This will be another Han Solo-esque trainwreck.
What does stop Astrocreep? Please, we need to know.
Thing is, I think Chalamet would be great casting for a young version of Johhny Depp as Willy Wonka.This. It's not quirky, it's jarring.

Was that Hugh Grant as the Oompa Loompa?The bit with the Oompa Loompa was cute but everything about this rings hollow. It wants to be whimsical but is instead spurious.

He fits in really well with Depp's gay Wonka. That movie appeared to be set in industrial Northern England though, while this one appears to be Victorian Paris.This. It's not quirky, it's jarring.
