anyone else have these as a kid?

honestly one of my favourites when i was younger

He's going to ace this

Wow that's an incredible casting choice. I never thought of that but he would be perfect for Wolverine

He gets to the bag. Can’t let Peele show him up

Yeah this looks mid. Shoulda let Tim Burton direct this again.

is this from a time period where people are only black and white?

its right there

Anton Yelchin deserved to live man

twitter calling his performance a "cheerful Paul Atreides"

wow this looks like trash

i think there's room in specifically this in a chocolate factory movie. Chocolate is a luxury good produced in the 20th century exclusively from horrific labor conditions in its raw sourcing. Factories are alien in postindustrial consumer societies (notice that the scene wonka imagines in its extravagance isnt the chocolate waterfall mixing room that is the most memorable part of the factory (and most iconic in films/books) but instead that of a high street retail shop (something that the eccentric and antisocial confectionery inventor canonically would find distasteful)) altogether.

You'd probably want the main character to be a kinda sidekick to wonka instead of wonka himself. That way you'd get to see this surreal figure from a kids point of view, get to experience the zany adventure from a relatable viewpoint and then have the possibility of having the kid grow to have perspective on chocolate factories and rainbow industrialists. like, this is kinda like the curuella prequel where they'll have to completely abandon the premise of the character in order to have them be a useable protagonist for a kids film. Wonka is a trickster archetype in the books, someone mystical, dangerous and unpredictable. In the book charlie and the chocolate factory he holds a contest to inflict body horror situations on dumb children cuz he finds it funny. the point of view is from charlie's cuz wonka's the sorta-slasher figure offing the offensive children with figurative chainsaws (an industrial tool perverted to distort bodies, like magic television broadcasting equipment decimating the body of mike teevee (the "bad" kids in the books are not taught lessons or given perspective or grow as people, they are brutalized, cuz its funny)).

Respectfully not watching this in hopes I can see it in theaters with Barbie or Oppenheimer

Yes I was so gassed when I saw these things were real in the Toys r Us lol

Hope they make a comeback for this movie

This guy is a terrible actor

Y’all really hype up this white boy 😭😭😭

Trash 🗑️

Looks so bland

Yeah he can’t do whimsical at all

Didn’t even see this tweet but i’m happy it wasn’t just me

Definitely overrated
Annoying how Hollywood will cast the same mf in a bunch of movies like plz I know there’s mad unused talent out there why I keep seeing the same white boy

awful, out of the entire movie those chose those clips to showcase him as Wonka? Yikes

in the bin

Gotta wonder if he had to audition or if he was just offered the role because of his hair

damn at first i didn’t get why some of y’all were hating but now i do it has no identity and looks like a cookie cutter disney remake

yeah these were fireeee

I dont think Timmy a bad actor but a character this silly takes a very specific performance you either got or dont

Andrew Garfield would’ve ate this performance but they were probably looking to go younger
