I had NO expectations for this film... A Wonka prequel seemed like such a cheap idea, but I was completely blown away by almost everything, especially the music. This reprise was a nice cherry on top of a genuinely great movie. You can feel the love and passion the creators had for the source material, and it shows. 10/10 would be in a world of pure imagination again.
This was the last movie I watched with my mom while she was in the hospital fighting leukemia. I played it on my laptop, and for that moment it felt as if the world paused and nothing else mattered. We laughed, cried, and smiled together while holding hands. Every time I hear this song, it reminds me of her and brings me to tears.
it's a shame how Gene Wilder passed away before he could see this wonderful tribute to the character, by Timothee, that he made into such an iconic role. It showed Wonka's dedication through financial struggles, fighting against the corporate corruption that tries to push him down, his positive and vibrant attitude in the face of cruel hardship and his love of helping others. Gene Wilder would've been proud!
Gene would have hated it. He already came out and said he hated the Depp version and thought it was completely unnecessary (it is). No offense to Timothee, but this film should not have been made and goes completely against the original.
@@danielstefanovich8388Funny that you say this when Wilder's version is the one that went completely against the source material and was hated by the author
@@Fred-xy9ch Yes, but as a movie was shockingly superior. It's difficult to judge a book compared to a movie. It's pretty damn easy to judge a movie against another movie. The point stands - this commenter said that Gene would have loved it. We have pretty strong evidence that no, he would not have, and he probably would have been relatively outspoken about his dislike for it. As he should.
I actually think something like this could work really well with Thomas the Tank Engine. I mean think about it, a fresh new take from only the railway books with some form of Paddington essence to it could honestly be really great if done right.
Something quite interesting about this version is that it has two parts that convey something different, the first is an emotional part that for me conveys that Willie is letting go, not only of Noodle but also of his mother after having done what he had to do, and the second is a more lively part and that has certain playful and sarcastic touches, which for me shows a character evolution, who goes from being an idealistic and innocent dreamer, to an idealistic dreamer but who begins to have a greater range when it comes to facing things.
This movie was WAY better than it had any business being. It is a wonderful, happy, silly, light, enjoyable family movie. Chalamet makes a perfect young Wonka. The songs are great, the acting is great and the story is great. I was simply blown away at how much I enjoyed it.
I shared the same sentiment. I had no intention of watching Wonka but needed something to watch based on the reviews. Wonka exceeded beyond my expectations and Timothée Chalamet's charisma made me smile throughout the whole movie! Must watch for sure!

A kids movie that is actually good and doesn’t assume children don’t know the difference between good and bad cinema. Sent from god, unless you’re Hugh Grant.
I saw an interview with Timotheé that he was singing this live when they were filming, instead of lip syncing, so those little imperfect touches made it an even better rendition and way to end the film. Made me walk out of the theater with a smile.
Hearing Hugh just bluntly state "It's a ruined castle..." in the middle of the song made me and my friend laugh hard in the cinema seeing this. Man this is such a feel-good movie.
I love the character of Wonka. He’s a magician on top of a businessman, but mostly serves as a guide for others towards their dreams. Yet at the same time, he himself is incredibly lonely, with only his workers to keep him company. He’s exists outside of others lives, and guides them to their own treasures that he can’t posses. “Pure Imagination” is the perfect song to describe this idea.
also the line right before that "and so goes a good deed in a weary world", it's the same thing Wonka says to Charlie when he gives back the everlasting gobstopper.
This is that part that BROKE me. Brought back memories of my Dad, I was 8 years old when he took me to see Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory at the Capitol Theatre in Manila. All the memories flooded back…
I saw the 50th anniversary in theaters back in 2021 it was the best summer of my life, so far. I saw a movie and got a transformers action figure, two of my favorite things to do. I was back in action.
My children and love this film. My son does especially. I think it actually helps him stay grounded when he struggles. Thank you Timothy Chalamet and whoever else made this possible!
I almost cried from listening to the first three notes to the music. Brings back the memories of Willy Wonka with Gene Wilder. He would’ve loved Timothy’s performance of Wonka if he were alive.
When I first saw this song at the end, I legitimately cried; it was so heartfelt seeing Noodle reuniting with her mother and seeing the beginnings of Wonka's factory like this. I'm really glad I saw this movie.
I’m 22, was sat in my uni room bored to shit. I decided to go to the cinema on my own for a bit of fun late at night. Went to watch this movie. First time in almost 10 years I truely felt like a kid again, I had the whole cinema to myself, sat right in the middle, and had the cheesiest grin on my face and goosebumps multiple times throughout the movie. Ive maybe watched this 3-4 times more since, what a wonderful movie!!
He took a treasured childhood memory and turned it into an aggressive bowel complaint. I'm in physical pain at how crap this is, and by the way, I don't think he's ever eaten chocolate to begin with. He's a fraud of the highest order.
in gene wilder's version of this song, he sang it as if all possibility can be achieve even if its on your imagination but at the same time it looks like he was having some doubts or regrets while singing, since he sang it as if remembering things, this one however implies that his dreams has just begun and not to be afraid....i love both version of the song
I think with Gene's its much more him putting himself in his audiences shoes. Seeing that for the first time, just how mind blowing it is. Bcs this is a prequel, I imagine it was THIS struggle to get to that point that he was remembering and getting emotional about. OR Maybe the last time he sang it was with Noodle, and he was remembering her and getting a little emotional
just shows wonka was always a pure boy who just wanted to make the world better. nothing changed, he stayed the same even after getting famous. why can't more people be like that? XD
I Swear. This Ending Almost Made Me Cry. Just Seeing Noodle Return To Her Mom Warms My Heart. And Everything Else Was Just Perfect. Like Willy Creating His Factory Along With Lofty (Or Shortypants 🤣) As His Assistant In The Tasting Department. 👍 But The Best Part? Is Timothée’s Reprise Of Pure Imagination. 10/10 Would Watch Again.👌
I loved the way Wonka looked at Noodle when she was starting to walk towards her mother, then when she looked back at him he smiled, happy for her. I loved that part, it was a beautiful detail to Wonka’s kind, caring personality. Wonka and Timothée are both such good people with good hearts. Timothée did a good job as his own version of Willy Wonka, so as Gene Wilder (I didn’t watch his movie yet…..) and Johnny Depp’s version of the fictional character. I wish I could taste what Wonka’s chocolate taste one day, I was literally craving chocolate after watching it 3 times- Anywayyyyyyy I love Timothée’s movies and so as this one, this one is amazing and so as his singing!! I hope that he gets what he wants and stars in good movies, keep going Timothée!
I am proud to admit that I actually cried during this scene. The nostalgia and giddiness of seeing my childhood and lifelong dream come true right before my eyes was something I had been longing for since I first saw the original. I have to admit... when I heard about there being a prequel to my all time favorite movie being made, my expectations were... not all that high. I mean why mess why the perfection that was.. well, already perfect? But when I went to watch the movie, I was surprised by how well written and the attention to all the details they included. I had ignored all the articles and press about the movie, so imagine my surprise to find it a musical of all things. Now, I know that the first movies had musical numbers in them, but I still wasn't expecting it to be a sibling to them!!! All in all, I am very happy and proud by how well the movie came out.
I just saw this movie and I ugly cried for like 10min Im 36yr old and seeing this brought a flood of memories and emotions. I forgot the feelings, emotions and child wonder of what imagination used to be. Even if only for a few minutes I could taste what imagination used to be 😭❤😭
@@taliagmail.com2005 Enjoy, enjoy! Be sure to ride Flight of Passage. It was so good, I teared up at the end. Rise of the Resistance is also worth the wait!
On a whim, we decided to go to the cinemas one night when I was travelling in Vietnam, there was a limited choice of movies and we decided to see Wonka, there are few things at age 55 years that I really enjoy but I have to say, this movie was so enjoyable that I can't rate it highly enough.....
Timothee Chalamet was meant to be Willy Wonka, but I'm disappointed that this isn't nominated at the Oscars, but other then that, this was a great film and my favorite film of 2023
SO disappointed that this didn't get ANY Oscar accolades, or Nominations! Just RIDICULOUS!! FANTASTIC Movie, FANTASTIC Cast, Timothee as Willy Wonka, was SPECTACULAR!! What a SHAME!
@@amandapike2477 yea that doesn’t mean anything. there are multiple plot holes as well as a few scenes that were lazily written. it’s a great movie but let’s not start giving out awards for mediocrity
Man I LOVE the ending, the beginning, and all the middle! I went in with LOW expectations and left as my favorite movie of 2023…maybe 24 as well 🤷♂️ Thanks for sharing this ❤️🙏
@@justineves3588 yessss! Like I want to watch it again now haha. We went to go to our local theatre the next day to watch it again last Friday and they pulled it 😱😭
without trauma dumping in the comments section of a youtube video, long story short the original willy wonka was very important to me as a child and the moment he said "...come with me-" i bursted into tears like an inconsolable child
The original version of this quote goes all the way back to Shakespeare: "So shines a good deed in a naughty world" -- Funny how great ideas come back around. Kinda like how great characters like Wonka (himself) come back around too.
The way the audio pops at 2:44, when the song picks up, is done remarkably well! This was one of the absolute best parts of the movie. It almost makes me want them to do a sequel, being the traditional Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, with another follow up sequel being Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator. Going into this movie I didn’t think I’d say it, but after finishing it I can confidently say that I wouldn’t mind seeing more of Chalamet’s Wonka. I don’t really think it’s in the cards anyway, but they’ve captured something special with this film, and with it comes great potential!
It’s better if the sequel was a Great Glass Elevator Adaptation because we already know the traditional Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Story. For the opening credits not only I want to see flashback drawings of Wonka I also want to see drawings of the story we all know, you know Wonka invites five lucky people in his factory, Charlie finds the last golden ticket, the four rotten kids meet their demises and Charlie winning the grand prize and being selected as Wonka’s heir.
The chap who made it has definitely expressed a wish to do at least one more film, as there are about 25 years between this one and the original. Lots of time to fill ❤
I think they should make one more with Chalamet to fill in what may have happened between this one and Wilder’s. Lots of time to fill, and what’s the journey between this Wonka and the more edgy, slightly sinister Wilder Wonka? Some interesting things could happen. Haven’t read the books, so I don’t know.
@@TheRealFrandudenah they should give it an original sequel to continue young willy's adventures and ofcourse I wanna see more of timothee as wonka he nails the role
Absolutely a masterpiece that ending when they showed the castle transform into the 1970s set Willy Wonka's Gene Wilder's Factory I just lost it I broke into tears thank you Hollywood for finally doing this franchise Justice❤❤❤❤
My favorite part about this song is that it really feels like 2 different songs stuck together. It's slow and melodic when Wonka is watching Noodle reconnect with her mother. He's reconnecting with this own Mother through her. And then it switches to a bright and upbeat song as he gets excited about the factory and his own ideas start to run wild through his head. I can't think of a better way to end this wonderful movie.
This movie lived up to the reputation of the original movie and legacy of the book. I left satisfied and free, Gene Wilder would have been proud of this movie if he was alive
@@ThatNobodyRigor they announced 5 years after he died in early 2021 which is now 3 years ago since they announced it and almost 8 years ago since gene wilder past away
My mother and I saw this in theaters and the moment this part came up she started crying as she thought about her childhood when she first saw Willy Wonka.
This version sounds like the words of a man who is hopeful for the future. The 1971 sounds like the words of a man who can't believe he actually achieved said future.
I recently just watched this film with the assumption of a cheap money grab. I was blown away by the performance and musical numbers. Timothee Chalamet had an outstanding performance and knocked it out of the park. The entire film was full of genuine love and I was so happy to have watched it. It truly is a fantastic work of art that is able to capture the magic of it's intellectual property origins, which is rare.
I have this song in my head for hours even days again and again Just shows how catchy the song is!! Make us all think we are Willy Wonka As he says: We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of dreams!
There is no doubt in my mind that if Gene Wilder were alive today, he would have been proud of what they accomplished. It’s not just a film but a love story to the tale of Willy Wonka and a tribute to the great Gene Wilder
I gave my mom the biggest hug after this film. Its crazy how people thought it would be a theater kid Willy Wonka when he brought the right level of quirkiness, spirit, humanity, and empathy to the character. He did such a beautiful job.
I honestly loved this rendition of “Pure Imagination.” This version has a tone of young hope and ambition, looking ahead to the bright future ahead, while Gene Wilder’s rendition is of a man who’s ready to retire, somberly looking back at his past and his legacy. I loved the parallel between the two versions.
Still a fan of the original but absolutely loved this redo... We all wanted to know where Wonka started from.... And from start to finish, laughed, cried, and learned every song with my son. Even have them so I can listen anytime🤭.... I think Tim played Wonka very well. His happy giddy spirit really gave the movie heart. This was very well done!! Thought they'd destroy it but I dont think I've ever loved a musical so very much until.....
What I found amazing was how Wonka instantaneously created his chocolate factory in the castle using his pure imagination. An imagination so powerful that the Oompah Lumpah was completely caught up into it. That with the song this last scene truly remarkable and yet totally convincible! Bravo to the actors and producers of this film. This is a film I will see time and time again. 🤗
Timothee Chalamet singing my favourite classic of Pure Imagination brings back so many memories. This has been the best prequel to Roald Dahl's classic children's book of all time. Next it's Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) 3:56 The beginning of a beautiful friendship 😊😊😊
When this started to play, I knew they were gunning for the grand, magical and satisfying ending I had in my mind. Happy to say that I wasn’t disappointed.
I used to be sceptical of having Timothee as Willy but when I watched the movie, I was blown away by his performance. He's a good actor and the movie is great too!! His songs and his expression nailed it!! The type of movie my money will go into!! Just like the movie who I thought Hollywood never make anymore but they did!! 10/10 🫶❤️
Caro ragazzo, sei uno spirito evoluto, al di sopra di tanti. Sii sempre te stesso. Il film è riuscito perché la gioia che hai trasmesso era genuina, vera ed immennsa. Tante benedizioni
This song makes me so emotional and happy in the same time, I love Timothee and can say that he is really talented actor and even a singer/dancer. There is nothing he can’t do❤❤
Come with me, and you be in a world of Pure Imagination. Reach out, touch what was once just in your imagination. Don’t be shy, it’s alright if you feel a little trepidation. Sometimes these things don’t need explanation. If you want to view paradise, Simply look at them and view it. Somebody to hold onto, it’s All we really need. Nothing else to it. Come with me and you’ll be in a world of Pure Imagination! Take a look and you’ll see into your imagination! We’ll begin with a spin, traveling in the world of my creation! What we’ll see will defy explanation! If you want to view paradise, Simply look around and view it! Anything you want to do it! Want to change the world? There’s nothing to it! There is no life I know to compare with Pure Imagination! Living there you’ll be free if you truly wish to be!
I watched this movie with an uncle. He’s normally a serious man when it comes to movies, but with this one and particularly this scene, I saw him shed a few tears. We both were crying, but we didn’t spoke, we just hugged each other until we calmed down.
This scene brought me back to my childhood. Willy Wonka was one of my brother’s favorite movies growing up and he would’ve loved this movie if he was alive. This scene brought me to tears because of the nostalgia and how it connected me to my brother the way Wonka connected to his mom through sharing his chocolate with his friends. This is peak cinema
Timothee sure surprises with his vanishing breed of triple threat talent. I just watched the movie for the first time in nearly a year. Wonka is so beautiful of a cinematic treat!
As a wonka fan who’s stuck around since 1971 I can confirm that this was the best way to end it all
I think you mean begin because this is a prequel
@@mr.movieandtvguy5310 I wouldn't say it's a prequel, it just has callbacks to the original

Absolutely, I didn't expect to be this good...🥰 The music is so good that keeps playing in my head since I watched it...😂

I think with Gene's its much more him putting himself in his audiences shoes. Seeing that for the first time, just how mind blowing it is. Bcs this is a prequel, I imagine it was THIS struggle to get to that point that he was remembering and getting emotional about.
OR Maybe the last time he sang it was with Noodle, and he was remembering her and getting a little emotional
Beautifully said
He was robbed!!! He should be nominated for an Oscar he is phenomenal!!! Thank you for posting my favorite part of the movie ❤️❤️
Making film in Oxford street
i might be wrong but i think because of its late release in the year he might be in the pool for next year. but id look that up
I hope so because he truly deserves an Oscar
this movie geniuinely made me cry
the movie is AMAZING
@Tacogoesduffy217 this was the only song sent to Oscar's before the movie released, so it was in this year's pool
Seriously the most perfect way to end the movie. 👏 Obsessed with this song.
The scene alone makes the movie worth it. This is so inspiring. Every outstanding achievement really starts with your imagination.
World of pure imagination is the best description of a library ever.
IKR
not pun intented but world and word are so close on this line, Word of pure imagination would fit well in a library ^^
just shows wonka was always a pure boy who just wanted to make the world better. nothing changed, he stayed the same even after getting famous. why can't more people be like that? XD
I Swear. This Ending Almost Made Me Cry. Just Seeing Noodle Return To Her Mom Warms My Heart. And Everything Else Was Just Perfect. Like Willy Creating His Factory Along With Lofty (Or Shortypants 🤣) As His Assistant In The Tasting Department. 👍 But The Best Part? Is Timothée’s Reprise Of Pure Imagination. 10/10 Would Watch Again.👌
I 100percent agree!
I started crying too.
Lofty said “Good day sir” THE SAME THING WONKA SAID THE CHARLIE AND GRANDPA JOE!
Shit that’s right
Also "So goes a good deed in a weary world"
well spotted (which is the british way of saying no shit sherlock)
I said “Good Day!”
The one that's perfectly matched is the one where lofty stole on his house
"Good day sir, I said good day"
I was so pleasantly surprised how good this was timothee was truly perfect to play a younger Wonka
Hands down, it was his shining moment.
I loved the way Wonka looked at Noodle when she was starting to walk towards her mother, then when she looked back at him he smiled, happy for her. I loved that part, it was a beautiful detail to Wonka’s kind, caring personality. Wonka and Timothée are both such good people with good hearts. Timothée did a good job as his own version of Willy Wonka, so as Gene Wilder (I didn’t watch his movie yet…..) and Johnny Depp’s version of the fictional character.
I wish I could taste what Wonka’s chocolate taste one day, I was literally craving chocolate after watching it 3 times-
Anywayyyyyyy I love Timothée’s movies and so as this one, this one is amazing and so as his singing!!
I hope that he gets what he wants and stars in good movies, keep going Timothée!
Timothée held Wonka in safe hands, Gene.. I promise 🥹
So true. And he didn’t try too hard to be Gene he did his own thing with it and so wonderfully.
I liked this movie way more than I was expecting to.
The most touching moment of 2023❤
I am proud to admit that I actually cried during this scene. The nostalgia and giddiness of seeing my childhood and lifelong dream come true right before my eyes was something I had been longing for since I first saw the original.
I have to admit... when I heard about there being a prequel to my all time favorite movie being made, my expectations were... not all that high. I mean why mess why the perfection that was.. well, already perfect? But when I went to watch the movie, I was surprised by how well written and the attention to all the details they included. I had ignored all the articles and press about the movie, so imagine my surprise to find it a musical of all things. Now, I know that the first movies had musical numbers in them, but I still wasn't expecting it to be a sibling to them!!! All in all, I am very happy and proud by how well the movie came out.
Me too, this entire comment!!
Saw this movie last week with my granddaughter. All three movies were wonderful for different reasons. But, I loved this one!

Isn't it wonderful that people still want that thrill of their imagination. It brings happiness to the heart.
I just saw this movie and I ugly cried for like 10min
Im 36yr old and seeing this brought a flood of memories and emotions.
I forgot the feelings, emotions and child wonder of what imagination used to be. Even if only for a few minutes I could taste what imagination used to be 😭❤😭
I got teary eyed when this scene came on haha
I'm 18 nearly 19 I saw this movie on December 27th at cinema in uk
Same here! I’m almost 34 years old, and try to plan a Disney World vacation every 5 years. I need that imagination and magic.
@@KathrynB621 I'm going there this year I love disney world I haven't been to a disney Park for like 7 years
@@taliagmail.com2005 Enjoy, enjoy! Be sure to ride Flight of Passage. It was so good, I teared up at the end. Rise of the Resistance is also worth the wait!
His voice is so beautiful 😍🥰💗
Ye😊
If you like this take, you might be satisfied with Mark Klockenkempers take on this one
IKR
Standards have dropped very low then

On a whim, we decided to go to the cinemas one night when I was travelling in Vietnam, there was a limited choice of movies and we decided to see Wonka, there are few things at age 55 years that I really enjoy but I have to say, this movie was so enjoyable that I can't rate it highly enough.....
Timothee Chalamet was meant to be Willy Wonka, but I'm disappointed that this isn't nominated at the Oscars, but other then that, this was a great film and my favorite film of 2023
At least he is
SO disappointed that this didn't get ANY Oscar accolades, or Nominations! Just RIDICULOUS!!
FANTASTIC Movie, FANTASTIC Cast, Timothee as Willy Wonka, was SPECTACULAR!!
What a SHAME!
@@janebarry-fraundorf4623bruh every single movie can’t be nominated for an oscar. while tis movie is very nostalgic, objectively it’s not oscar worthy
@@coastingalong Objectively it really is. It's far superior to everything Disney released this year.
@@amandapike2477 yea that doesn’t mean anything. there are multiple plot holes as well as a few scenes that were lazily written. it’s a great movie but let’s not start giving out awards for mediocrity
Man I LOVE the ending, the beginning, and all the middle! I went in with LOW expectations and left as my favorite movie of 2023…maybe 24 as well 🤷♂️
Thanks for sharing this ❤️🙏
Me too he did a great job and he is a great singer too I can't wait to get this movie to own 😊❤
@@justineves3588 yessss! Like I want to watch it again now haha. We went to go to our local theatre the next day to watch it again last Friday and they pulled it 😱😭
I think I like it better than the Johnny Depp movie
Mine too. Alongside TMNT Mutant Mayhem
@beauboi8581 nice, good list 👍
Was shocked that something like this could make me shed tears. Bravo
I teared up when he started singing this.
Me too
without trauma dumping in the comments section of a youtube video, long story short the original willy wonka was very important to me as a child and the moment he said "...come with me-" i bursted into tears like an inconsolable child
You and me both. And for the same reason
Thank you for sharing it with us☺
TH-camrs with art pfp's trying not to trauma brag (impossible)
1:40 "so goes a good deed in a weary world" hey I get that reference
More like in the future, Wonka quoted Lofty.
@@TheEmpressReborn that makes sense
The original version of this quote goes all the way back to Shakespeare: "So shines a good deed in a naughty world" -- Funny how great ideas come back around. Kinda like how great characters like Wonka (himself) come back around too.
@@ChandlerLawsonPlays oh yeah I actually heard that reference from a comment in a video
and... "I said good day sir"
The way the audio pops at 2:44, when the song picks up, is done remarkably well! This was one of the absolute best parts of the movie. It almost makes me want them to do a sequel, being the traditional Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, with another follow up sequel being Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator.
Going into this movie I didn’t think I’d say it, but after finishing it I can confidently say that I wouldn’t mind seeing more of Chalamet’s Wonka. I don’t really think it’s in the cards anyway, but they’ve captured something special with this film, and with it comes great potential!
It’s better if the sequel was a Great Glass Elevator Adaptation because we already know the traditional Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Story. For the opening credits not only I want to see flashback drawings of Wonka I also want to see drawings of the story we all know, you know Wonka invites five lucky people in his factory, Charlie finds the last golden ticket, the four rotten kids meet their demises and Charlie winning the grand prize and being selected as Wonka’s heir.
The chap who made it has definitely expressed a wish to do at least one more film, as there are about 25 years between this one and the original. Lots of time to fill ❤
I think they should make one more with Chalamet to fill in what may have happened between this one and Wilder’s. Lots of time to fill, and what’s the journey between this Wonka and the more edgy, slightly sinister Wilder Wonka? Some interesting things could happen. Haven’t read the books, so I don’t know.
same
@@TheRealFrandudenah they should give it an original sequel to continue young willy's adventures and ofcourse I wanna see more of timothee as wonka he nails the role
This film is a masterpiece
Absolutely a masterpiece that ending when they showed the castle transform into the 1970s set Willy Wonka's Gene Wilder's Factory I just lost it I broke into tears thank you Hollywood for finally doing this franchise Justice❤❤❤❤
So shines a good deed in a weary world.
💪😇🥰😍☺️🎉🌞💛💫🤩🌍🙏🏻🎉
My favorite part about this song is that it really feels like 2 different songs stuck together. It's slow and melodic when Wonka is watching Noodle reconnect with her mother. He's reconnecting with this own Mother through her. And then it switches to a bright and upbeat song as he gets excited about the factory and his own ideas start to run wild through his head. I can't think of a better way to end this wonderful movie.
This movie lived up to the reputation of the original movie and legacy of the book.
I left satisfied and free, Gene Wilder would have been proud of this movie if he was alive
actually this movie would've never happened if he hadn't died.
@@ThatNobodyRigor
Is that so?
yeah, he never wanted a sequel or prequel and they waited until he died to announce this movie in particular (I think)
@spiinxshow
It feels like the Wonka verse has been having a wave of revival since he died.
First, the Broadway musicals now the prequel
@@ThatNobodyRigor they announced 5 years after he died in early 2021 which is now 3 years ago since they announced it and almost 8 years ago since gene wilder past away
My mother and I saw this in theaters and the moment this part came up she started crying as she thought about her childhood when she first saw Willy Wonka.
Especially love the singing at the very end! Timothée is so talented.
this song is so comforting ❤
Timothee Chalamet is the perfect Wonka I knew in my life
I like Johnny Depp
He is. ❤
Stop comparing them @@oscarschmitt6048
Wilder is the perfect wonka but timothee chalamet did a great job with the impossible task of living up to him
fr
I love Timothée Chalamet so much ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
fr
This was the best movie I saw in 2023! Great movie!:)
This version sounds like the words of a man who is hopeful for the future.
The 1971 sounds like the words of a man who can't believe he actually achieved said future.
Ngl I feel like in about 10 years this movie will feel nostalgic. It already does feel nostalgic for me for some reason
I LOVE THIS SONG !!! I IMAGINED IT AS A MEMORY OF MY CHILDHOOD❤❤❤❤🥺😃😃🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
Beautiful voice
ikr timmy's voice is beautiful
I recently just watched this film with the assumption of a cheap money grab. I was blown away by the performance and musical numbers. Timothee Chalamet had an outstanding performance and knocked it out of the park. The entire film was full of genuine love and I was so happy to have watched it. It truly is a fantastic work of art that is able to capture the magic of it's intellectual property origins, which is rare.
I have this song in my head for hours even days again and again
Just shows how catchy the song is!!
Make us all think we are Willy Wonka
As he says:
We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of dreams!
There is no doubt in my mind that if Gene Wilder were alive today, he would have been proud of what they accomplished. It’s not just a film but a love story to the tale of Willy Wonka and a tribute to the great Gene Wilder
he would of been proud of timothee he wpukd be like I am very proud of you timothee
I gave my mom the biggest hug after this film. Its crazy how people thought it would be a theater kid Willy Wonka when he brought the right level of quirkiness, spirit, humanity, and empathy to the character. He did such a beautiful job.
It's nice to hear my name in a song!
I can’t handle how heartwarming this ending is oh my gosh
I honestly loved this rendition of “Pure Imagination.” This version has a tone of young hope and ambition, looking ahead to the bright future ahead, while Gene Wilder’s rendition is of a man who’s ready to retire, somberly looking back at his past and his legacy. I loved the parallel between the two versions.
Timothee Chalamet is great- amazing talent..
this scene is magical, made me cry. I just love how the film embraced the pure unabashed optimism and whimsy, there is no hint of cynicism
Wow, he nailed it.
Wonka should be on youtube condensed, aquaman lost kingdom too. WONKA 2023 GREAT SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pure Imagination Timothee did a great job.
"In a world of pure imagination!"
"It's a ruined castle."
That makes me crack up everytime.
Still a fan of the original but absolutely loved this redo... We all wanted to know where Wonka started from.... And from start to finish, laughed, cried, and learned every song with my son. Even have them so I can listen anytime🤭.... I think Tim played Wonka very well. His happy giddy spirit really gave the movie heart. This was very well done!! Thought they'd destroy it but I dont think I've ever loved a musical so very much until.....
Can’t wait to watch it with my daughter!(:
@@Avatar_tradez Pinky Promise that you and your daughter will love it!!🥰🤭
I loved Timothee as Wonka, his singing, his acting PERFECT🎉❤
What I found amazing was how Wonka instantaneously created his chocolate factory in the castle using his pure imagination. An imagination so powerful that the Oompah Lumpah was completely caught up into it.
That with the song this last scene truly remarkable and yet totally convincible!
Bravo to the actors and producers of this film. This is a film I will see time and time again. 🤗
wait till wonka 2 comes out
Timothee Chalamet singing my favourite classic of Pure Imagination brings back so many memories.
This has been the best prequel to Roald Dahl's classic children's book of all time. Next it's Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)
3:56 The beginning of a beautiful friendship 😊😊😊
When this started to play, I knew they were gunning for the grand, magical and satisfying ending I had in my mind. Happy to say that I wasn’t disappointed.
I used to be sceptical of having Timothee as Willy but when I watched the movie, I was blown away by his performance. He's a good actor and the movie is great too!! His songs and his expression nailed it!! The type of movie my money will go into!! Just like the movie who I thought Hollywood never make anymore but they did!! 10/10 🫶❤️
and it's getting a sequel
Honestly I loved the original as a kid. As an adult I found this absolutely gorgeous and answered questions I always had as a kid about Wonka.
I’m smiling throughout…the music is so phenomenal…
Caro ragazzo, sei uno spirito evoluto, al di sopra di tanti. Sii sempre te stesso. Il film è riuscito perché la gioia che hai trasmesso era genuina, vera ed immennsa. Tante benedizioni
esattamente
This song makes me so emotional and happy in the same time, I love Timothee and can say that he is really talented actor and even a singer/dancer. There is nothing he can’t do❤❤
Same here it reminded me of my child hood when I first watch the original
Come with me, and you be in a world of Pure Imagination.
Reach out, touch what was once just in your imagination.
Don’t be shy, it’s alright if you feel a little trepidation.
Sometimes these things don’t need explanation.
If you want to view paradise,
Simply look at them and view it.
Somebody to hold onto, it’s
All we really need. Nothing else to it.
Come with me and you’ll be in a world of Pure Imagination!
Take a look and you’ll see into your imagination!
We’ll begin with a spin, traveling in the world of my creation!
What we’ll see will defy explanation!
If you want to view paradise,
Simply look around and view it!
Anything you want to do it!
Want to change the world? There’s nothing to it!
There is no life I know to compare with Pure Imagination!
Living there you’ll be free if you truly wish to be!
I watched this movie with an uncle. He’s normally a serious man when it comes to movies, but with this one and particularly this scene, I saw him shed a few tears. We both were crying, but we didn’t spoke, we just hugged each other until we calmed down.
This scene brought me back to my childhood. Willy Wonka was one of my brother’s favorite movies growing up and he would’ve loved this movie if he was alive. This scene brought me to tears because of the nostalgia and how it connected me to my brother the way Wonka connected to his mom through sharing his chocolate with his friends. This is peak cinema
i cannot describe how much i love this song and how happy it makes meeee💗💗💗💗💗
Timothee sure surprises with his vanishing breed of triple threat talent. I just watched the movie for the first time in nearly a year. Wonka is so beautiful of a cinematic treat!
