![]() ![]() People have written entire articles explaining how Charlie’s Grandpa Joe is an awful role model. The 1971 movie, while considered more family-friendly, doesn’t even show us whether the other kids survived.Īlthough Charlie initially seems like a “good kid,” he’s content to keep his head down and behave correctly while other kids get punished. They’ll all probably be traumatized for life. ![]() I can’t say they’re unharmed, because Violet is violet and Mike’s body is stretched out.

By this logic, it actually makes sense that Charlie takes the name Willy (Wilford) Wonka, then just Wilford. In this theory, Wonka and Wilford are both inherited roles, much like The Dread Pirate Roberts in The Princess Bride. The biggest plot similarities include Wilford having a supposed adversary who’s actually his spy, and then asking the protagonist to be his successor.
