Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

When Charlie is handing bits of his Wonka bar to his family members, it can be seen that he hands his father two separate segments of the chocolate bar, however in the next scene when his father goes to take a bite of the chocolate he's been given, the two segments are still attached to one another.

While in the chocolate room, Mike is smashing a candy pumpkin.

You see it break into three pieces before his dad comes over, however, when Mike is speaking to his dad, the pumpkin is in smithereens, and Mike is no longer standing in the pumpkin goo.

As the sun comes up the morning after the flyers have been passed around the city, you can see an extra start to step out (then duck back in) of the doorway just beyond the flyered pole that is in the foreground.

When Willy Wonka is having his shoes polished by Charlie, the crew is reflected in his black sunglasses.

When the kids and their guardians are walking from the main gate to the front door, the shadow cast by the factory on the courtyard changes many times.

The "Golden Ticket" is placed on the back side (smooth side) of the chocolate bar before the wrapping, however, when opened, the Golden Ticket appears on the top side (the "printed side") of the bar.

In the "flag room", many of the flags appear to be mirrored or upside-down, but that's because they are flying in the opposite direction of the staff than we are used to.

Augustus' home town of Düsseldorf is shown to have old-fashioned houses with wooden frames, like in a Bavarian, Austrian or Swiss town.

Düsseldorf is in Nordrhein-Westfalen, where there is no such architecture.

Even more so, Düsseldorf is shown to be near a huge mountain range, of which there are none even remotely to the Ruhrgebiet, which is a rather flat landscape.

When the chocolate castle liquefies, you can see the melted chocolate hit the princess on the face in a certain pattern and a small dab on the nose.

The next time we see the princess the chocolate pattern has changed.

When Mr.

Salt walks in front of Wonka to go down to fetch Veruca it would not be possible because as the gate swings open it would be in Mr.

Salt's way.

As Wonka unlocks the gate you can see Wonka's hand opening the gate slowly and in the next scene you can hear the gate still opening, so Wonka would still have his hand on the gate which totally blocks Mr Salt's path.

When Willy Wonka is eating a Caterpillar for the first time ever, his tongue is already green.

When Willy Wonka dips the pink ladle into the chocolate river, the chocolate is spilling over the edge of the ladle.

But when he hands it to Charlie, the outside of the ladle is completely free of chocolate residue.

When they are showing the winners of the 3rd and 4th golden ticket winners, there are 4 shots of Charlie watching the TV.

In the first and third shot, grandma Georgina's head is upward off the pillow.

In the second and fourth shots, her head is resting on the pillow laying down.

When Augustus is trapped by a vacuum near the top of the pipe, the seals below him begin to blow out.

A vacuum doesn't work that way, if he were blocking the pipe all the pressure would've been on the parts of the pipe between him and whatever was creating the vacuum.

When Mike Teavee pushes the "Television Room" button in the elevator, the elevator continues downward and then takes a sharp turn to the right.

However, the actors lean toward the right (toward the direction the elevator moves), rather than moving to the left as one would as a reaction to the movement.

When Willie goes back to see his father and the dentist examines Willie's teeth, the fingers holding the mirror completely change position between the shots from inside Willie's mouth to outside, both times.

The size of the handle also changes between shots.

When Charlie receives the toothpaste cap from his father that is to become "the head for Willy Wonka", there is a shot of just his hand holding it up with the "hat" pointed upward.

In the next shot, the toothpaste cap has turned completely upside down.

In the scene in the Nut Sorting Room Veruca stands with her hands on the railing in front of her.

There are a matched pair of shots over her shoulders where her hands are clearly visible.

(The shots approximate to Willy Wonka's and Mr Salt's Points of View.

) In the shot over Veruca's right shoulder the gap at the side of the gate is clearly seen between her resting hands hands.

In the reverse angle over her left shoulder the handrail is unbroken.

Mike Teavee says"First off, there's a difference between waves and particles!".

Actually there is not.

All energy and matter express the so called wave-particle duality, where they can be regarded both as particles and as waves.

Someone as science-oriented as Mike Teavee should be aware that this has been known since 1924.

He most likely meant "There is a difference between energy and matter" which much more relevant in this situation in that energy can easily be transmitted while matter cannot, which is what makes Willy Wonka's television camera so amazing.

During one of Willy's flashbacks as a child, he has braces which keep his lips from meeting, however his voice properly makes a "p" sound when he says words such as "pieces.

" When Willy is having his teeth examined near the end of the film, the view from inside his mouth shows his lower teeth being examined, but the next shot, looking into his mouth shows his father just turning the mirror over, having just looked at his upper teeth.

In the scenes where the news vans are outside the golden ticket winners homes.

the truck outside of Mike Teevee in Colorado has the wrong call letters.

They start with the letter "W".

They should start with "K" for a TV station west of the Mississippi.

Also, the live truck in front of Violet's home in Atlanta has call letters beginning with a "K" instead of "W".

While this is most often true, there are a few cases of call letters starting with "K" in the eastern US.

ExamplesPhiladelphia's CBS station, KYW and in Pittsburgh, KDKA.

- PLOTIt is stated numerous times that no one ever goes in or out of the factory.

We later learn that those helping run the factory are Oompa Loompas, about 2-3 feet tall.

However, when the group riding bicycles exits the factory at night to put posters up about the tickets, the group are normal sized adults and the movie offers no explanation as to why/how they came out of the factory or even where they went after they were done putting up posters as they are never seen again.

The adult Willy Wonka has blue eyes and the young Willy Wonka has dark brown eyes.

In the nut sorting room, the tubes are filled with hazel nuts but when they come out of the tubes they are walnuts.

The glass collapsible tube that picks up Augustus has five separated sections but before it picks up Augustus it has three sections together on the top and two on the bottom.

The photo in the 'Russian Ticket a Fake' article shows a group of people beside St.

Basil's Cathedral in Moscow.

However, the article text states that the boy who has "found" the Golden Ticket lives in St.

Petersburg.

- PLOTAfter Mike Teavee gets shrunk by the TV ray, Willy Wonka orders him and his father to the taffy puller room.

Immediately afterward, Wonka has a very short conversation with Charlie and Grandpa Joe, they get into the elevator, and blast through the roof.

They then fly down over the factory entrance, where Mike Teavee is already stretched and leaving the building, just 2-3 minutes after Wonka had given the taffy-pulling order.

At the Tokyo candy store, several Wonka candy bars appear with Katakana print on the label.

The title for the candy, "Nutty Crunch Surprise" is written out as "NATTI KURANCHI SA!RAIZU".

The word "Surprise" is written out incorrectly as "SA!RAIZU" while it might be more properly written out as "SAPPARAIZU!".

At Dr.

Wonka's house, Charlie picks up a picture of a boy, presumably Willy.

However, from Willy's flashbacks, we know he wore a head brace while he was a child and ran away from home at an early age.

The boy in the picture is clearly much older than the Willy in the flashbacks and he wears no head gear.

When the Oompa-Loompas roll Violet away, she constantly changes positions, going from rolling forward to rolling on her side, yet there is no sign that the Oompa-Loompas have turned her.

When Mike Teavee is about to be transported through the air across to the television, the harness around his waist is visible just below his shirt as he is lifting up off the ground.

I used to be a huge fan of Tim Burton. His eccentricities and oddball imagination made him a true visionary artist and his sense of humour was sufficiently askew to make his work not only funny but pleasingly strange and refreshingly unlike that of any other Hollywood director.

Rahd Dahl was always one of my favourite authors growing up so when I found out this film was coming out I was looking forward to it, Tim Burton did a great job in directing this film, it just needed to be a little bit more accurate to the book.The acting was good especially by Freddie Highmore (Charlie) as well as Johnny Depp (Willy Wonka),who I feel really feel they went out of their way in order to represent their characters as they should be Everyone else acted the way their characters should have been and they presented their characters very well.

It is more like a fairy tale. Just like the youngest and kindest children in fairy tales get the help of many elves and finally get happiness, Charlie, who is embarrassed by the family here, also realized his dream with his kindness and love for candy.

The only twists and turns of the film is the plot of getting the chocolate coupon. Other plots can be guessed easily.

Then you'll love Johnny Depp as Willie Wonka. Gene Wilder was eccentric and quirky, and seemed completely at ease with those characteristics Depp, on the other hand, tries too hard and comes off as some sort of creepy man-boy in the process.

Hated this movie, compared to the original Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory this is a disaster, the music in the movie, the ONE umpa loompa, and then they multiplied him, really? Your budget allowed for ONE umpa loompa and then you multiplied him ?

This movie is really amazing for the kids and adults! The style of Dahl and Burton mixed very well together.

Story. An adaptation of the eponymous and famous novel by the English writer Roald Dahl, or, to be more precise, a rethinking of the first film adaptation, filmed in 1971, which I have not watched or read the book.

This movie is definitely odd. The original with Gene Wilder is a classic, and these two movies are very different, despite having damn near the same story.
