I’ve started headcanoning that Wilder!Wonka is Chalamet!Wonka’s long lost dad now. Idk why but I like it a lot despite how cliche it is.

why is this that tall 🛑🛑🛑
- if you have to hold it at an angel it usually means this is this is WAY TOO TALL, ITS BENDING ON ITSELF XD
tip as thick as the cane itself 🤔🤔
-which doesn't mean a lot, as this is so thin already, but at least its not making it worse
this is no handle this is stright up EVIL 🛑🛑🛑
-how is he even meant to hold this
pretty enough, decorative and simple ⭐⭐
-i love that this is choclete brown :) its thin and funky and offical looking
actually walking with it: well, no, why, sort of ok, but, why 🤔🤔🤔🤔
- this is so tall it fucking wobbls on itself from the strengh it takes him just by leaning on it!! and he tries!! but god damm!! but he does walk correctly, mirroing his leg perfectly well
does it make sense character wise to have this spasific mobility aid: i believe so! ⭐⭐
-look at him, this man relishies in his breakability, he is frail, he is old and dieing, look at him, even his cane wobbles as if just a gust of wind can knock him over, he brings his image of frail man really well! even later on, as he just uses it to point dramaticly at things, its perfet and thin. its perfect
STAR TOTAL ⭐⭐⭐⭐
HMM TOTAL 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
FAIL TOTAL 🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑
PERSONAL SCORE OF ACTUAL FUNCTIONALITY: 4/10
(almost to no support of this poor frail man)

Just watched the Wonka movie.
I enjoyed it as a standalone film but especially enjoyed it as a prequel to the Gene Wilder Wonka. It retroactively made Wider’s Willy so much more tragic.
And that’s because Chalamet’s younger, earnest and kind Willy Wonka is CONSTANTLY having his kindness and compassion and belief in the good intentions of others thrown back at his face almost. Every. Single. Time.
What happens to him, in no particular order: People take advantage of him when he is at his lowest; they sabotage his chocolate; Hugh Grant steal his chocolate and beats him with a frying pan; he is nearly drowned by the chief of police; a boat he’s in is rigged to explode; they try to drown him AGAIN but now in melted chocolate under a church; he is tricked into debt and forced into indentured servitude; the chocolate mafia wants him dead; he has to crawl in the sewers just to sell his chocolate without the police beating the shit out of him at the chocolate mafia’s command, and a bunch of other moments either his earnest nature (or the fact he is illiterate, because by the way he is illiterate) is taken advantage of.
But he keeps believing in the good of others. He has friends, and a pseudo daughter that taught him how to read and his mother’s memory and so many dreams…
And then we arrive at Wilder Wonka. Who was betrayed one too many times. Who had his recipes stolen from him. Who shut himself from the world and trusts no one.
Who doesn’t care for these spoiled people walking around his factory, even if they were his last attempt at proving to himself that good people, good kids (Like Noodle) still exist.
Who is alone.
TL;DR: seeing a young Wonka who is so optimistic knowing how he is going to end up after being betrayed over and over and over again is a emotional experience that I was not quite ready for.

I went and made myself sad.
What if 2023 Wonka's initial succession plan was to leave the factory to Noodle, but she died before him? Which contributes to the melancholy we see in 1971 Wonka (compounded by people lying and stealing from him, of course)
