Johnny as Willy Wonka?

[lisajl]

Elaine,

The original Willy Wonka movie was not made as well as it could have been. I jsust love the end when he wraps his hand around that gobstopper and says, "So shines a good deed in a weary world." Hopefully they will leave that line in.

OUATIM--well...I loved Desperado! But, it just seemed in this movie, too many players and no real follow through if you know what I mean. I will always love Antonio and Johnny, but the movie could have been better.

BTW, are you gonna be in WDW in Dec.? Oh-nevermind, I just saw your countdown!!

Gene Wilder always creeped me out in Willyl Wonka. I guess it was from seeing it when i was a kid and getting scared.Johnny has that same sort of creepy/odd way about him that Gene Wilder has. I imagine his portrayal will be very similar. I also don't get all the remakes. I generally don't like them. If you see something and love it you don't really want to see somebody do it differently. I can't wait for Neverland and of course the Pirates sequel. Love my johny.

Just saw the trailer for Finding Neverland last night (before seeing Garden State- fantastic movie), and it really looks great. I'm also a big Kate Winslet fan. Depp's talent has really allowed him to chose some worthwhile projects.

With Tim Burton directing and Johnny as Wonka; this is not going to be your average "remake"!! I can't wait for this...

I must admit that if Johnny Depp is in Willy Wonka, that would be the only reason I would see it. I always HATED that movie when I was a kid. That whole chocolate factory gave me the creeps. I only liked Charlie and his grandpa. All of my friends loved this movie though.

Well, if a movie came out with Johnny D in it, I'd go see it anyway (unless my mom said no.....then I'd beg and plead... ) But, I'm REALLY looking forward to, him playing Willy Wonka. I think he'll be great as it. If not, at least he'll be good looking . Finding Neverland also looks good. My friend and I are already making plans to see it when it comes out

Finding Neverland looks GREAT and I'm curious about the Willie Wonka remake. There's so many directions Tim Burton could go in with that one.
