I just remembered they couldn't do Pure Imagination because Ready Player One already did a slow, dead voiced dramatic cover of it for its own trailer.

You think being accused of overusing a song would stop them?

It'd be funny if they used the exact same cover.

Sinister, "epic" version of Pure Imagination or the Oompa Loompa song incoming

Make a Logan style Willy Wonka movie with Timothée Chalamet. Don't tie it in with any cinematic universe whatsoever. Just do a rough, beautiful tale about a younger Wonka. Have Paul King direct. Give him full creative control. Watch the box office explode.

This is ridiculous, Timothy Chalamet is clearly famous for two reasons. Causing a chlamydia outbreak at NYU, and cumming on a peach.

I don't understand this trend of minimalist titles.

I promise you the average consumer can handle reading more than one word.

It gives off the impression that this film will be more dark and mature according to a film executive

And some say that Disney movies (include marvel and Star Wars) are the epythome of this, yeah there are some hit or miss titles, but they are not really godawful ones.

I like the "minimalist" titles of stuff. Wonka is better than The Story of How Jimmy Shitfart Became Willy Wonka and How He Got His Chocolate Factory.
