Must Be Good To Be A Bucket

mood: i wanna be a kid all over again
music: willy wonka - oompah loompahs ("willy wonka! willy wonka!")

the best movie this year. the best. this is the kind of movie that makes you forget that you're an old fuddy duddy grown up and brings you back to a time where life was much much less complicated.

johnny depp is truly an inspiring actor. as i watched him bring willy wonka to life, i kept having flashbacks to him in edward scissorhand, blow, pirates of the carribean and i said, "that cannot be the same man." but it was! it was him. excellent excellent performance. give that man an oscar!

if i could make one improvement it'd be the fact that there was no subtitles for the songs that the oompah loompahs sang....they were wonderful...but the lyrics can hardly be heard over the music, so i thought that they should have subtitled the music in english too...as they did in mandarin..

one thing spoiled it for me. it was very very very disturbing and annoying for me to have sat in the movie in front of a row of ignorant kids. throughout the movie, they kept asking anal questions like "mommy why is the house senget? (lopsided)" and "why the grandparents sleep together?" and "mommy why they always eat cabbage soup?" and (i think this is the stupidest question of all "why the elevator make from glass one?"

OH FOR FISH SAKE!

go read the damn book! i didn't think i'd meet anyone who's not heard of charlie and the chocolate factory as a book...dumba**!

but catch it you must! and i can't wait for them to turn the glass elevator into the next movie!!!!!!


"in fact, everything in this room is eatable, even me. but that would be called cannibalism." - willy wonka, charlie and the chocolate factory.
