Wonka Trailer REACTION 2023 Timothee Chalamet
Transcript
00:00 Will Hollywood be able to bring back Wonka for a third time?
00:04 Actually, make that fourth!
00:06 As I saw Warner Bros Broadway theatrical version of Wonka a couple of years ago with Christian Borle
00:13 and I gotta tell ya, it was delightful!
00:15 It was in fact my favorite version of the story.
00:18 But I like Timothee Chalamet, again I like the Wonka story
00:22 and I like Paul King, who directed the Paddington movies
00:24 and is bringing Hugh Grant over with him
00:27 who was great in Paddington too.
00:29 I'm loving Hugh Grant's silly era.
00:31 So I think that's very promising about this movie.
00:35 My only concerns are that I got my hands on a treatment
00:39 early days on the movie, but it was very descriptive
00:43 and it was very convoluted, in fact I couldn't get through it.
00:47 And so I'm hoping that that was just problems that were on the page.
00:51 And they fixed that once they made the movie.
00:54 And then the other issue I have is that I think Harry Potter has kind of
00:58 has kind of already moved into the crazy candy space
01:02 and so especially if you're gonna take a darker turn like this movie seems to
01:06 you know, instead of going full candy colored
01:09 you know, will it seem a little bit too much like Harry Potter?
01:13 But let's watch this thing, let's take a look, I'm excited, here we go!
01:17 I've spent the past seven years traveling the world perfecting my craft.
01:21 You see I'm something of a magician.
01:25 I just gave up sugar!
01:26 So quiet up and listen down.
01:28 Nope, scratch that, reverse it.
01:32 Mr. Wancroft can see you're a man of great ingenuity.
01:35 What are you doing?
01:37 I'm making chocolate of course, how do you like it?
01:39 Dark, white, nutty, absolutely insane.
01:42 Many people have come here to sell chocolate.
01:45 They've all been crushed by the chocolate cartel.
01:50 You can't get a shop without selling chocolate
01:53 and you can't sell chocolate without a shop.
01:56 No daydreaming.
01:59 What are we going to do, will we?
02:01 This looks like Hugo.
02:02 Huh, which didn't do well.
02:06 Huh.
02:07 A double huh.
02:08 Is that the pencil and paper?
02:09 Uh huh.
02:09 I got an idea.
02:12 I know things haven't been easy for you.
02:14 They're going to get better.
02:15 You promise?
02:16 I pinky promise.
02:17 There is the simile.
02:18 That's the most solemn vow there is.
02:19 Where do we start?
02:21 A good chocolate to Mr. Burt.
02:22 Well, an action scene.
02:24 Just where are you?
02:26 What's happening?
02:26 Oh, what's a chocolate that makes you fly?
02:28 Let's find out, shall we?
02:30 Who's for a hover chop?
02:32 Nothing to see here.
02:34 Just a small group of people defying the laws of gravity.
02:38 This is surprisingly funny.
02:40 Ladies and gentlemen of the gallery gourmet,
02:43 my name is Willy Wonka.
02:45 He's good.
02:46 Too good.
02:47 Pretty sure I've gained about 150 pounds
02:51 in the last two weeks.
02:53 You could change her life, Mr. Walker.
02:56 Change all their lives.
02:59 Run away!
03:01 Everyone Atkinson in this world started with a dream.
03:05 There's two grandpas on Oodle Loo Pop.
03:07 So you hold on to yours.
03:10 Here we go, mama.
03:13 Dad?
03:13 Not my worst.
03:15 This is going to be the greatest chocolate show
03:18 the world has ever seen.
03:24 You're the funny little man who's been following me.
03:26 I will have you know that I am a perfectly
03:28 respectable size for an Oompa Loompa.
03:30 An Oompa what now?
03:31 Allow me to refresh your memory.
03:34 Oh, I don't think I want to hear that.
03:35 Too late.
03:36 I've started dancing now.
03:38 Once we've started, we can't stop.
03:39 [LAUGHS]
03:41 I got to tell you, I don't think it all comes together at all.
03:47 But I'll still see it.
03:48 I mean, it's a fun Christmas movie.
03:50 I'm getting a little Hugo Golden Compass vibes off of it,
03:53 which scares me, because those movies
03:55 were tough to sit through.
03:57 And I think that my reaction to the outline
04:00 might have been correct.
04:02 But it looks very pretty.
04:04 It's a fun candy store coming out again at the holiday time.
04:07 They're going to sing and dance.
04:08 Looks like it has some funny jokes in it.
04:10 And I think that Hugh Grant and Rowan Atkinson, I mean,
04:14 there's no way I'm not seeing a movie with them in it.
04:17 But I will say, as much as I like Timothy Chalamet, who
04:19 I think is wonderfully cast in Dune,
04:22 I think he's miscast here.
04:24 I can't believe I'm saying it.
04:25 Oh, sorry, Timothy Chalamet fans.
04:28 But I think that he is just-- he's too stilted.
04:31 He seems like he's doing a Broadway production rather
04:34 than a movie.
04:35 I don't believe that he's actually Willy Wonka.
04:38 It seems to me like he's playing Willy Wonka.
04:41 And so I'm curious as to what you think.
04:44 I just don't think he holds it all together.
04:48 Well, you know, we'll see.
04:50 We'll see.
04:50 That's only the teaser.
