Slop.

Come with me, and you’ll be, in a world of pure enshittification

He literally stopped acting because he thought movies had become slop in the 90s.

I remember hearing Majel Barrett recorded a whole phonetic library in the 90s, so she could continue to be the voice of the Star Trek computers after she passed away. It doesn't get used, because none of the rights owners want to pay her estate the fees they charge.

willy = penis

wonka = wanker

stay woke 👁️

Well what if her blessing is shit

This is really sad. My personal rule for remakes is you shouldn't do them unless you can improve or add something to them and definitely shouldn't use AI like this. Willy Wonka is an american classic and we are just shitting on art at this point. I feel like the og hollywood movie period starts with the Wizard of Oz and ends with Willy Wonka. I couldn't get thru the first ten minutes of the Johnny Depp remake because it was so creepy and didn't have any of the charm the Gene Wilder version had. A good example of an appropriate redo imho is The Wiz. If you've never seen it I highly recommend it. They didn't try to copy the original Oz note for note but instead did a reinterpretation from a black american perspective. Wiz takes place in Harlem instead of Kansas and was made using a very deep bench of Motown talent featuring artists at the height of their careers like MJ playing the scarecrow and Dorothy played by Dianna Ross.

I can't wait for the grave.

From "Young Frankenstein" to this undead Mr. Beast crap. :netflix-cool:

I guess it's preferable over bringing back Depp

late actor's wife probably got a cut

Fire. All of it.

bruh

One to not watch then, got it.

Karen B. Wilder, Wilder’s wife, said in a statement on behalf of the Gene Wilder Estate:

"More than five decades after Gene brought Willy Wonka to life, people of all ages and backgrounds around the world continue to find joy, laughter and inspiration in his performance. Gene had a remarkable ability to bring humor, wonder and heart into people’s lives, and that connection has endured for generations. We are delighted that ‘Wonka’s The Golden Ticket’ celebrates the warmth and imagination that he brought to the role, introducing that magic to a new generation while honoring the fans who have cherished it for decades."

I wonder how much she made off this shit. And how much more she plans to make.
