In this version, unlike the book, all five kids break the rules at some point. Charlie does so by drinking the fizzy lifting drinks. It nay have been Grandpa Joe’s idea (fuck Grandpa Joe) but Charlie went along with it. Charlie redeems himself in the end by giving back the gobstopper but fuck that shit because the other kids were never even given the opportunity to redeem themselves. Mike Teevee stayed out of trouble the longest and therefore should have won.

I have another puzzle for you
Oompa Loompa doom-pa-da-dee
If you are wise you’ll listen to me
What do you get from a glut of TV?
A pain in the neck and an IQ of three
Why don’t you try simply reading a book?
Or can you just not bear to look?
You’ll get no… you’ll get no… you’ll get no commercials
Oompa Loompa doom-pa-dee-da
If you’re not greedy, you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa doom-pa-dee-do
The oompa loompas should have been given the factory and company as a collective, so the workers that create the value can share in the profits and future control of new designs and decisions in general
It was made in the 1970’s. It could’ve drifted on some flower power magic to make the oompa loomoas great again
It was always Wonka’s plan to “fail” all the children. It was only then that the decision about the gobstopper was most meaningful.
None of the children knew Wonka wanted an heir. None were promised anything but a tour.
None were promised anything but a tour.
and a lifetime supply of chocolate, iirc. but I think you’re right about Wonka planning to fail the kids. he prolly didn’t want a kid who’d just mindlessly do the tour without going a little crazy.
Fucking Grandpa Joe… Freeloading fucking dumb asshole
grandpa george would have never pulled that shit
George is back in bed all day with the two grandmas, don’t worry about George.
Mike teevee was also an insufferable douche of a child.
None of them should have gotten anything.
Here’s the real shower thought: would Bunnicula have murdered Violet after she turned in to a blueberry?
Might have been exactly what she needed. Wonka sent her to the juicing room, after all.
Is Wonka the inventor of the turbolift technology in star trek?
How did Mike Teevee fuck up again?
Also DYK food manufacturing was very secretive at the time. Doubly so for things like candy bars where your specialty was your really the entire product. Such was the basis for Charlie and the chocolate factory.
