OK, I had to – no one else was.
I might have actually enjoyed the original movie if it were more like this. Call me crazy, but Johnny Depp would have had this place.
Are you implying that Willy Wonka’s Factory wasn’t a whimsical crack house? If you can find another explanation for the downright insane things that took place there I am all ears.
“Not a speck of light is showing
So the danger must be growing
Are the fires of Hell a-glowing
Is the grisly reaper mowing
Yes, the danger must be growing
For the rowers keep on rowing
And they’re certainly not showing
Any signs that they are slowing”
Literally the most frightening song of my childhood. Hands down!
Take a drink; And you’ll sink
To a state of pure inebriation
You’ll be tanked; Like the whole Irish nation!
When you drink enough of my beer; You will find this magic rule
Make your every joke a jewel; You’ll drive drunker than Oksana Baiul!
Go on buds, drink my suds; Till you’ve reached that pure inebriation
Though the beer may be free, you’re just renting it from me
Seriously, why do kids need a magical fantasy land? They live in one anyway. Throw’m in the backyard with a stick and five minutes later Smaug is dead.
It’s adults that need the break from reality. I’d pay loads to have 30 minutes where I not responsible for anyone or anything. Now that’s fantasy.
I think this is a great idea for a movie. Imagine it starts as a Willy Wonka-Esque story but as the story goes by it the world got worse and worse and then you realize that the story is actually someone’s POV who was high like kite and the drug effect start to wore off.
“I never thought that I would smoke
More weed than I could hope to toke,
But nevertheless, it’s really true,
Buddy this ain’t no joke!
‘Cause I’ve got a golden Zippo!
I’ve got a golden flame to light my bong!
And with my golden zippo I sing a alllll daaaaay lonnnnng!”
Oh Adam you mad genius, this comic really… *sunglasses* cracked me up!
YEEEEAAAHHHH!!!!!!

Kids died in that place man!
No-one died; in the book and remake they appear at the end alive, albeit changed.
Mmmm…. Slurm…
I don’t think there would be that many changes. Part of the factory tour already looks like an acid trip.

That freaked me out as a kid too, but it was also my favorite part of the movie. I just love that build-up.

I was all set to title this one “Pure Inebriation” until I realized that was from Family Guy. Damn you, Seth!
Oompa Loompa looompadee doo, I’ve got another crack pipe for you!
Thanks for the nod to Ogden Nash! Not really a poet, but what a master of doggerel!
Sounds like a rave I went to once…
Liquor in the front, poker in the rear.
ha.
You had me at “nap”.

Is your name Hunter S Thompson?

Crap. That last line is supposed to be “I light up all day long.”
