Everyone has heard of the Willy Wonka Scam event in Glasgow last weekend, but I wanted to take a more comprehensive look. I take a look at both the logistics behind the event and the man who organized it, as well as analyzing the bizarre AI-generated script provided to all of the actresses and actors. On it's surface Willy's Chocolate Experience is exceptionally funny, but there's more than meets the eye.

Making this even more funny, apparently about halfway through the organiser thought the queues were getting too long, and had "Willy McDuff" move into one of the areas to just interact with groups at random rather than leading them through the event. But he didn't bother telling The Unknown what to do instead, so now she (it was an actress) was jumping out and scaring kids in the middle of the Twilight Tunnel without any context and for some of them as the first interaction with actors they had at the event!

It might be outdated now, but "birds" at one point was slang in some parts of Britain for "pretty girls". Or, at least that's what consuming various UK media over the years would have me understand. So there's an answer for you on what that joke might have actually been going for.

@myfriendscallmepat 3 месяца назад

Dang I knew there was a high chance it would be a British regional thing. I still don’t think the joke works sadly for the computer

@unknownpasta8103 3 месяца назад

as a british person, birds essentially means chick so he's basically saying "my hot jelly bean attracts chicks"

@paz1830 3 месяца назад

@myfriendscallmepat 3 месяца назад

Yeah over the years (didn’t really talk about it in the video but I’m a huggggeee fan of the original movie) I have given thought to that. Because on the one hand, in basically every way besides the SFX, the 1971 movie is superior to the 2005 one. Better acting, better Oompa Loompas, better script, better songs. But the very dark vision of the 2005 film is absolutely more faithful to Dahl’s original work. In my view, the 1971 film represents a very rare example where a source material is adapted somewhat inaccurately and the end product is better than the original version. I can see the opposing argument to that as well though.

@MarkHeathcliff-bf2im 3 месяца назад

Literally all they had to do was make an experience with chocolate. You could cheaply have just had one stage and a bunch of chairs. A Willy wonka actor and an Oompa Loompa and have the show teach kids about chocolate and then have them make their own chocolate bar. As for the unknown you could repurpose that into a villain that tries to sabotage or steal their chocolate creations only to be stopped at the last second. The kids chocolate creations are saved and the kids get to take it home. If you need a drink you could do instead of just regular lemonade something more creative like the rarer orange aid or why not make it berry lemonades or at the very least if your going all in on chocolate make it hot chocolate and call it idk chocolate from the chocolate river.
