Day 1 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory .



We all know what the movie was about. Lets take a stroll down memory lane . The famous Willy Wonker chocolates :) oh how they craved for it. 5 Lucky kids were given the chance to visit Willy Wonkers famous factory. based on the movie as i can remember Willy Wonker sold his chocolates to every end of the world. Ever realised something ? the 5 lucky kids were of the roughly the same "type" of people . Lets not get into details but something to thought. LOL

As far as i am concern , geographically speaking , the end of the world reached Africa , Asia , south America , Europe , and even Antarctica . oh well i guess this children were really really lucky because on the other hand , Willy Wonker just randomly slipped the 5 golden tickets without knowing where it went . how does this apply to us ?

Well think for a minute, we always blame people for being racist and not accepting one another . On the other hand have we ever thought it was just the way it is. We never asked for it , we never thought about it but it was just " fed" to us of a known fact ? Just like Willy Wonker Sending his famous chocolates out to the world and the 5 lucky winners just happened to be these 5 lucky kids ..


all In All for the Golden Ticket :)



a Scene of Willy Wonker showing his guest around the factory.

the first Lucky kid was mike . How similar is Mike as a kid to kids today in the real world. He's on his play station 24/7 , he hardly went out of the house. He used bad language, language he learn from the Tv games and never socialised . On the other hand, he was a very smart boy who knew about telekinesis and what it could do to make the world a better place :) now how is that similar to kids these days ? think about it. Yes Kids do not go out anymore, neither do they climb trees and ride bicycles like us anymore. But have they become smarter , more outspoken, more inquisitive then the kids before ? Think about it ...

Then we have Charlie the " sweetheart" of man kind, i would say . In the movie Charlie belonged to a family who barely met ends meat. They had Cabbage soup everyday for their meals, his dad got retrangged from work because of technology. When Charlie won the ticket, people around him were prepared to pay 500 for it. Charlie thought of giving it up for a moment to give his family a better life. He thought " we needed the money more than chocolates" Charlie only got one chocolate every year and that was on his birthday and when he got he decided to share with with everyone .A kid with a heart of Gold :) At the end he was the one that was not roughten to carry on the legend of Willy Wonkers's chocolate factory. Now we all know that. How similar is Charlie to a kid today. We have all heard of how some children have to quit school to help their family put bread and butter on the table daily. We have heard of how some kids are lucky enough to even have a decent meal without having to dig through any garbage bin . think about it ..........................................



On the other hand we have .. the rich girl who wants ponies for her birthdays . Just like the movie. Her dad Bought All the chocolate he could get his hands on just to give his daughter the golden ticket. She would wine and haul to the moon if she did not get what she wanted. Look, sometimes it takes hard work for someone to get what they want. Some just snap their fingers or in this case stomp their feet and they have what they want all laid down right in front of them. Life is unfair ? life is not just ? Well similar to the world we live in now is it ? The rich get richer , the poor get poorer. But in the end .. no amount of money can buy happiness now can it ??

back to the movie .... Oh how my imagination ran wild when watching the movie. i wonder are all chocolate factories like that ? LOL i think i would love to see the chocolate fountain for real haha


ah yes ... the fat kid . who ATE all the chocolate he could till he got the golden ticket. He just loved chocolates and food for that matter. He ate his way to the golden ticket. Greedy as a pig LOL. how is that similar to us ?? Does the word obesity hit your skull ? Willy Wonker had a factory full of chocolate and candy. it was everywhere and anywhere even to the very land you step on. someone went berserk till he got " sucked" up the chocolate fountain vacum LOL. Greediness lends you no where for the matter ...


and presenting Willy Wonker himself. As a boy Willy Wonker was the son of a famous dentist. Every year at Halloween he was allowed to go out trick or treat but come back getting his candies all burn up because they were "cavities on a stick" how his father had deprived his of his childhood . When he finally got the taste of chocolate one day he loved it so much he ran away from his father Indeed he because successful and all rounded . He had what he wanted But lost what everyone ever treasured .... family ... Now you dont need me to tell you how familiar is that to the real world no do we ? .......... give it a thought for a moment ...


Last but not least violet. The girl who always win. the girl who never quits and the girl who had her mother on her backside telling her . you need this , you need to win , you need to be number one, do whatever it takes . outbid them . A scene in the movie showed how violet immediately hugger Willy Wonker with her mum smiling in the back and telling him " oh she is always a winner" But at the end we all know what happen to violet .. she became .. violet. She possessed a new talent of being flexible but her mother only had one thing to say and one thing in mind " look mum i am flexible ... , yeah but you're blue " " you did not win " Some of feel that no matter how much good we have in us could never live up to the best in our mums eye. I for one am lucky that my parents never once denied what i wanted or what i am good at. but still only to a certain point , after that they is still disagreements and yelling over trying to keep an understanding between us........ ring a bell ??

See what i mean by somehow movies does play a role in representing what we live in today. Yes we may not have all the bad traits of what i mention but i am sure you can say YES to at least one of them .. can you ??
