Hi tumblr, I don’t post much but I figured there’s a start to everything. Don’t read if you’re not a fan of woke opinions or something.
One of my maybe (??) hottest takes regarding Willy wonka (mostly speaking about 05 but goes for ‘71 I suppose) and how most people perceive the man is that they always paint him to be this naturally evil man when, well yes he is lowkey evil but there are some VERY obvious reasons to that.
In regards of (05), his dad was a health crazed dentist who practically humiliated and outcast him as a child due to that stupid headgear he wore, there’s no way he wasn’t bullied for that and the fact his diet was probably extremely limited. Halloween must of been his least favourite time of year.
Then going on after that to building this highly sought out chocolate/candy empire by himself, having to deal with spies left and right stealing his life’s work. And last but not least the man was ISOLATED. For more than 15 fucking years!! FIFTEEN YEARS PEOPLE. No one but his oompa loompa’s to talk to. If they even spoke that is, I assume their communication was mostly in the form of body language and gestures.
After all that I’d also go a little insane, my reconnection with the world being 4 bratty kids and their parents would’ve been the cherry on top.
Some would argue this could be very obvious and I just want something wonka related to rant and or talk about but I can’t handle another person saying that Willy is satan reincarnated when the man has already been through some trauma.
In the end I’m the teenager with no life who’s obsessed with a Crazed chocolatier so. Shrug.
my discord is @/wiickedwonka if anyone gafs tho x. Dm me for more wonka related opinions none of my friends like catcf.
