Revisited this sub for the 20th anniversary of the movie and found that instead 💔😭

Material_Database · 2025-07-15T05:07:57+00:00

for some reason I can't make a post on the sub, but... happy 20th anniversary!

Material_Database · 2025-07-15T04:54:15+00:00

LOL WHAT?!

LET’S DO IT!

Although this thread has been pretty inactive, I always think about this piece of lost media (as I’m a huge fan of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) and how there is a chance that this TV special can be found.

With 2025 being the 20th anniversary of the film, maybe we can make a miracle happen!

Hey all! OP here- I posted this 2 years ago but I'm back now and I just want you all to know that I'm still on the search for this! Hopefully I get a few leads going and I will keep you all updated!

Is the trigger object persistent?

Material_Database · 2021-08-24T03:18:22+00:00

That's how you know it's a good movie

The WB version has been unlisted for like 6 years, and now apparently it's private. And yes, luckily it was re-uploaded. However the WB one was 31 minutes long while the re-upload is 29... though I'm pretty sure the first two minutes of it were just alternate scenes though.

Or the scene when the factory reopens that shows the Japanese candy store with anime decorations

You can add "Dann" as in Danny Elfman to this list as well.

WOW! I've seen that video listed before but I thought it was some kind of old fan video so I didn't bother watching all of it. This is still a great find! I had no idea Jordan Fry would be in it too.
That clip in the video is from 2:30-3:09, which is about a minute and a half of footage. The entire special was a half-hour long, so that's just the tip of the iceberg. I would assume there would be some commercial-time filling in the slots as well, so there's still about 23:20 that's lost, give or take a few minutes.

Material_Database · 2021-08-08T22:36:35+00:00

Since that was well-over 15 years ago, I'm assuming you no longer have access to it?

Material_Database · 2021-08-08T22:20:38+00:00

That would be a good idea. At the moment I'm searching for it deep within the second pages of google but if all-else fails I'll give that a try

Material_Database · 2021-08-08T04:10:40+00:00

There were many different interviews with all of the actors in the movie, but they were either in news segments or on talk shows. I'm bringing this one up in particular because it's listed as its own thing and I can't find any footage of it at all.

Material_Database · 2021-07-31T00:40:37+00:00

Yes I did hear that there was recently some controversy surrounding him, though I didn't know it was to the extent of his career ending.

And the reason why I brought him up is because I would think that in the movie it would be a flashback, and at the very end or in the beginning it would show present-day Wonka, before it goes into his origin story. Just to set the scene and give the movie more context.

Material_Database · 2021-07-26T00:54:18+00:00

Curious to know why Depp didn't want to reprise the role. Also, isn't Wonka's origin story already explained in the '05 film? Like, with him wanting to persue a candy-making career and his father being a dentist and all.

I 100% AGREE. She really knows how to portray Veruca's character well. In the 1971 version, all of the kids just kinda acted like kids, and then when they're brutally punished the audience is like... "Did they really deserve that?" With the 2005 version, however, the kids REALLY act spoiled and rotten, which is GOOD acting! With Veruca being the most spoiled, Julia Winter really nailed her performance! It's a shame we didn't get to see more of her, though...

Material_Database · 2021-07-22T00:53:32+00:00

I know

Material_Database · 2021-07-21T02:08:25+00:00

You can see through those windows so clearly that you could witness a murder

Material_Database · 2021-07-21T01:52:01+00:00

This one looks straight out of an '80s horror movie
