Gorgeous Willy Wonka Box Set Raises the Question: What?s the Movie?s Most Underrated Moment?

All Willy Wonka news is good news (unless we’re talking about another aerial death brought on by Fizzy Lifting drinks), but the news of a 40th anniversary Willy Wonka box set is astounding news.

Gorgeous Willy Wonka Box Set Raises the Question: Whats the Movies Most Underrated Moment?

Note the giant Blu-Ray book (rendered in resplendent color), the edible goodies, the Golden Ticket, the candy scented pencils, the Parker Brothers-style packaging. It is scrumdiddlyumptious, gobstopping, and sinister like Slugworth all at once.

His abrupt bizarreness and befuddlement are Dahl-ian standards! While Gene Wilder, Julie Dawn Cole (Veruca Salt), Leonard Stone (Mr. Beauregarde!) and Oscar-winner Jack Albertson get the most memorable moments, it’s Mr. Turkentine who garners the biggest laughs. To this day, I refuse to understand how percentages really work. (Scented) Pencils ready!
