Willy Wonka......

[KayleeUK]

....or should I say Johnny Depp

Well we have had Harry Potter so are you looking forward to seeing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Have a look at this site http://chocolatefactorymovie.warnerbros.com/

Opens 29th July

Can't wait! charlie and the chocolate factory has always been one of my favourite books, I heard that Johnny Depp is going to play Wonka as a darker character than in the old film (gene wilder???) which is good as thats how Roald Dahl meant him to be, he wasn't a nice man at all and didn't like children (apparently) so Depps portrayal should be good. Saw the trailer at the weekend when we saw Madagascar, looks great

mmmm johnny depp!!
just looked at the link, thanks kaylee its made be love chocolate all over again, after giving it up!!!

 

[Tink78]

I think it looks a bit scary.
Johnny Depp is gorgeous but not sure about that hair do!

And the Oompa Loompa's - they are really freaky!

Can't wait to see it though.

And Madagascar - looks fab!!

 

[carolfoy]

Madagascar was great, not up to the standard of Shrek or The Incredibles, but good nonetheless, my son cried his eyes out at the bit where Alex the lion has to make a decision as to whether to stay best friends with the zebra or to let his natural urges overcome him and eat him!

I don't like sad bits

 

[Tink78]

Aw..bless.

I am hoping to see it this weekend.
Fingers crossed.

I just love films like that.

I was almost sick when I saw Finding Nemo cuz I laughed so much!

 

[carolfoy]

Nor do I Kaylee, but I must admit to being totally unmoved by it ( this from the girl who cries her eyes out at The Fox and The Hounds) but Cally found it too much!

 

[KayleeUK]

I cry everytime Mufasa dies in the Lion King

 

[mandymouse]

I really don't fancy this film or Johnny Depp with that haircut !!! but I can't wait for the next Pirates of the Caribbean film next year

 

[Miffy2003]

I really want to see this film! My DDs love the original film (unfortunately for me, this means it is on in our house quite often).

I am also looking forward to the darker side of Mr Wonka being brought out by Depp & of course Tim Burton.

I do agree that noone could find him attractive with that hairstyle though

 

[Dimplenose]

It's not the hairstyle that worries me - it's the teeth. Makes him look like David Walliams character of the secretary to the Barbara Cartland like author in Little Britain!

[jjpenguin]

Is it me or did Johnny's portrayal of Mr Wonka remind anyone else of Michael Jackson?

 

[Minniespal]

The clips look fab ~ Can't wait to see it.

 

[Giddy Kipper]

Did anyone else want fizzy lifting drink when they were a kid................
Johnny Depp AND chocolate...HEAVEN

 

[princess jackson]

Yes looking forward to seeing this.

The original is on TV Sunday 610pm on channel 5

Must admitt I have never had the chance to watch this film from start to finish.

Will aim to sit and watch this.

 

[Bwalker]

JJ ---- YES!

I thought I was the only one who thought that and I mentioned it to my daughter because no where had I read anything to that effect.

She proceeded to tell me that in an interview with Johnny Depp, he did say that he modeled a lot of his behavior on Michael Jackson's! So it looks like you were spot on!

DH and I went to see it this past Sunday ---- it's brilliant - LOL!!!!

Can hardly wait to hear what y'all think of it
