Do you know what Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) was missing? Hilarious physical comedy from an animated cat and mouse! We analyze the (unnecessary, unwanted, uninspiring) movie Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Hot takes, angst, and eye rolls accompany this episode. ENJOY.
To keep up-to-date on all things Wonka, be sure to follow us on TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter @wonkawatch.
We'd love to hear your concerns (it'd be unhealthy if you didn't have any). Email us at wonkarapture@gmail.com
