I just cannot believe that's Johnny Depp.

The ghost of Frank floats around the room and says: "I saw the movie last night...finally...it was really good...and yes, Shady dear, I can see why you thought that Johnny Depp did a better job of Willy Wonka. I did like the plot of this one better, and the special effects better (of course...) and the ending. Maybe one day I will say that this one was better. My favorite part is when Willy is having his semi-annual haircut...finds the white hair and says "I need to find a heir!"...hahaha. Okay, yeah, so it was really super funny, everyone of you should go and see it. Yeah. *floats away to torment EB in his sleep*

I'm glad you liked it.

Maybe one day I will be able to see it. $\:D/$

I'm going to see it on the 3rd, so i don't know what i think of it yet, but i heard people saying that he just says weird things out of the blue. and that it's freaky... I think~ well the other one did that stuff too!!!

I saw it last night. It was good, much better than I'd expected I must admit. In comparison to the original movie, the acting was better, the effects were better, and it was truer to the book. However I was saddened to discover that they dropped the oompa-loompa song

.
This is one movie I'll probably buy when it is released on DVD.

I just had to go see the movie again

. I noticed a lot more details this time. I think I enjoyed it more on the second viewing.

The ad made it look um... strange. And I really doubt I going to see it.

That's what I can't get over either.

He simply creeps me out looking at him.

That's it! That's what he reminds me of!!

(I'd already written the above in response to Trent before I saw this post.)

No offense to anyone who likes it.

I'm not judging the whole movie or anything... just sharing the impressions the pictures give me, logical or not.

i saw it yesterday....it was really good, however i didn't like the Oompa Loompa songs. I really liked Johhny Depp as Willy Wonka, when they did the thing with the puppets, then the puppet burn center...then Wonka's comment of "You're really short aren't you"

ObiWan Kenobi Girl · Post by **ObiWan Kenobi Girl** » Fri Aug 05, 2005 10:25 am

I just saw it 2 days ago! I thought it was way too computer animated! Agustus looked like he was made out of clay! They wrecked the characters of violet and Veruca!! Veruca wasn't mean enough! Even though she did look like the other one! Violet was nothing like herself, and her mom was a freak!

Has anybody else realized that they make up parts in all the movies just for Christopher Lee?(Willy's dad)

i saw it and i thought it was ok

Bennett · Post by **Bennett** » Sun Aug 14, 2005 1:21 pm

I thought it was a great movie. Johnny Depp did an excellent job as Willy Wonka and this movie held a lot more of depth that the older one did not. It applied to all ages. The ending was sweet. Overall, great film.

The one thing I greatly missed was the whole, ''Everlasting Gobstopper'' scheme. Perhaps that wasn't in the book.

In case you guys didn't know, I liked pretty well.

Actually ObiWan Kenobi Girl, most of the movie was shot on real sets, not computer-generated.
And yes, Monica the Gobstoper sceme was made up for the mvoie (just like they made up the sub-plot about Wonka's dad in this one)

A friend of mine said "Well... on the first one they make you want to go jump in his lap, but in the new one... you don't want to do that."

Guys I was wondering if you've seen Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? How is it, I'm going to see it some time soon? Just wondering if it's worth watching? Thanks

The new movie with Johnny Depp was excellent. I liked the old Gene Wilder version as well. Both steeped in dark humor.
