>mfw i realize why they struggled to find midgets in germany
>>219380503Well someone had a bunch of them killed a 2 decades prior.
>>219380503
>>219380465Yea im in destitute poverty, my mother boils clothes for a living. How is that a job? You know what I had for dinner last night? Cabbage soup. Thats like 30 calories, i shouldnt even be alive right now.
>>219380465>What do you mean two? I can't figure out just two!What kind of retarded teacher can't do that while literally teaching how percentages work.
>>219380465fucking retard can't do 0.2%
>>219381738>>219381773Typical American education
>>219380465oh hey, I was watching that earlier. it still holds up.
>>219381934Of course it still holds up. Why wouldn't it hold up? It's been a beloved movie since the 70s. Movies don't just go bad like milk in the fridge.
Wrong sir wrong
>>219382131Well, it doesn't 100% hold up. MikeTV isn't really relevant these days now that rotting away at the television is perfectly acceptable.
>owning a house like this was considered comically poor and laughable in 1971 on one (and a half) income supporting 6 people

Your Majesty!I love these scenes more than the rest of the movie. Where can I find more stuff like these?
>>219380465why was he such a dick to charlie
>>219386175I don't get Grandpa Joe's decision to steal Fizzy Lifting Drink™ out of nowhere, like they were very morally high and above all the other characters, then he's just like "ayo charlie, let's drink this shit lmao"
>>219381415The 70's were weird that way. A lot of movies and TV shows had an element where rich people mocked poor people for being poor. It was usually reverse psychology, with a message of "we may be poor, but we have our integrity/morality" guaranteed by the end of the episode.
I can buy "Slugworth" showing up at the TV interviews of the other kids, since it takes place later, but why the fuck was he literally in the Peanut factory AS they found the ticket?
>>219389098The man lied about being bedridden for twenty years, he was a shady guy
>>219389139If I had to guess, it was the most widely acceptable act of “standing up to the system” without going all the way like in MASH, All In the Family, or other Norman Queer schlock
>when they pull back the covers on the bed and it wasn't filled with decades of crusted shit and pissTook me out of it, honestly
>>219389244He knew where the 5 tickets were.
>>219380828He should've just killed them in the womb like us enlightened modern liberals do. Then he wouldn't have been so evil.~:^)~
Still makes me chuckle to this day
>>219389287I always interpreted it as a miracle brought on by suddenly having hope in a hopeless circumstance. I’m not a fan of the Johnny Depp version of the movie, but I thought they nailed the “suddenly springing from bed” moment that would have led to the Golden Ticket song much better.
>>219389021Monty Python is way sillier, but often has similar feels
TWO SCOOPS?
>>219381934I disagree immensely. Gene Wilder is one of the only redeeming parts of the film and he doesn't even show up until halfway through. The first half has some good gags but most of it is just memeing on how stupid the scenes are. I know people meme about Grandpa Joe being evil or whatever but he is genuinely insufferable to watch, especially considering the movie is genuinely insisting he is a good guy. The songs aren't very good and a whole bunch of them grind the movie to a halt.In my eyes Wilder singlehandedly brought a 3/10 movie to a 6/10.>>219390022To piggyback on this anon, I feel the movie basically is just a mid-tier Monty Python movie but if they tried to cram in a real plot and serious musical numbers for some reason.
How did Grandpa Joe buy Charlie that Wonka bar if he never leaves the bed?
>>219380465When I was in grade 4 or smth I entered a raffle at a food fair we did in the school for a giant ginger bread house, I bought 1 ticket for 25c, I ended up winning and it was pretty sweet
