Tumblr User Explains Why Violet Should Have Won In “Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory”
We’ve all got our childhood favorites, from cartoons to music, from toys to movies, etc. Some like “Matilda” while others are all about “Home Alone,” but we’re sure there are quite a few who would choose “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” as their all-time favorite. And there’s certainly a good reason for that.
The movie offers an exciting adventure, full of colors and fantasy and all things fun! The story also provides some teaching moments, and we all know how everyone loves a good moral, where the kind are rewarded, and the flawed are punished. However, one Tumblr user, Evayna, did not agree with the moral of Wonka’s story and proposed her own take on how the movie should’ve ended.
While the original favors poor Willy Wonka character named Charlie, this woman thinks that he wasn’t fit to inherit the chocolate factory and offers an alternative in her seemingly funny Tumblr post. “I don’t remember the spark, but it was basically “The one who loves candy gets in trouble for eating candy in a candy factory tour where everywhere you go you eat candy. This is ludicrous.” Evayna told Bored Panda, explaining what first started the whole post. “I’ve noticed women often respond a lot more positively than men do. I think we’ve all felt the unfair punishment for not being ‘ladylike’ and having our skills overlooked, same as with Violet Beauregarde” she added. Scroll down below to read her funny Tumblr take on Willy Wonka’s choice and tell us if you agree in the comments!

No. She never deserved it- too greedy and too disciplined to run a company that's about people more than chocolate. She might be ambitious but no morals. I don't think W***y Wonka wanted a heartless, money driven person to follow once he was gone... This would work for her if Wonka was a money grabbing businessman- but he wasn't so no!

Don’t forget that the 1971 Wilder film was a saccharine travesty of the original book (which has no orange Oompa-Loompas, no golden geese, no fizzy lifting drinks, and no Slugworth sub-plot) and was hated by Roald Dahl who completely disassociated himself from it (hence why it was called “W***y Wonka & the Chocolate Factory” instead of “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”). At least, aside from the ludicrous father/dentist backstory, Tim Burton’s film was a much better interpretation.

Roald Dahl did hate the movie, but Dahl's book was embarrassingly racist (even before today's reflexive mantra that everything is racist), and the movie was a vast improvement over the book -- especially the orange Oompa-Loompas! Wilder's performance is anything but saccharine. Tim Burton might have been more faithful to the book but, aside from being eye candy, his movie is terrible.

Honestly, I really don't care who wins (but it can't be a snobby kid)like i'm just trying to lowkey enjoy the movie, but I also like hearing someone else's point of view because it is kind of interesting

Well, that's a way to think about it, and I totally agree with her...But the actual story does teach impulse-control, something I struggled with as a child. My parents and I watched this frequently to teach me lessons about humbleness (IDK if that's a word) and thinking before you act.

For the future, I’m pretty sure it’s humility, or something like that?

I'm convinced. I am 100% sure Violet would make the company even more successful. Charlie and his extremely needy family might run the place in the ground. Violet is clearly a leader. I'm not so sure about Charlie.
