Very unfortunate that deaths did occur.

Company is going to be sued for sure. Negligence at the very least.

That is what happens when you let a kid run the chocolate factory. What was Wonka thinking?

I was tempted to post this in your food processing thread.

Negligence is the norm with company operations in these factories, not necessarily the work of guys who would have to really travel far to do damage.

I thought Wonka was jerking off to some Oompa Loompa lapdance+striptease and lost it.

Which Wonka, Wilder or Depp?

I really wasn't thinking of a particular version.

I personally haven't watched the Depp version (yet), so I'm only familiar with the Wilder version.

Eh, similar manifestations of mundane British society, separated by decades. (Harry Potter is also mundanely British, but it only hit me when I was watching the British House of Cards, and the young journalist character rattled about prefects and heads of houses like it was normal. Slytherin=nobility and other fat cats. Gryffindor are the Knighted folks. Ravenclaw the Oxford and Cambridge worthy students. And Hufflepuff is everyone else not special. And everyone looks down at the other, regardless of which side, i.e Muggles towards wizards and vice versa)


Wonka is partially inspired by the real Cadbury factory...but the Cadbury heads did treat their workers well.

I watched this old documentary about a month ago

I also like the fan theory I read that Wonka was one of the Doctors. Who?
