Not a Wonka line but I love the teacher's reaction when Charlie says he only opened 2 candy bars. It's hilarious the way he says "Two? I can't figure out just two!"

Wonka's sarcastic "Stop, don't, come back . . ." in the Wonkavision room.
And earlier, he says
"I'm a trifle deaf in this ear, speak a little louder next time" when Mike asks how Gobstoppers are made.
Wonka: "If you have any problems, dial information, thank you for calling." lol.
Mrs. Gloop: "DON'T JUST STAND THERE, DO SOMETHING!"
Wonka: "Help . . . police . . . murder."

I have so many. lol. Especially when he starts angrily shouting in Latin at the end during his famous "YOU GET . . . NOTHING" rant.

While Wonka and an Oompa Loompa are discussing where to take Mike to fix him, we hear muffled talking and then Wonka says, "No, I won't hold you responsible", for whatever reason this always makes me laugh. I think it's the idea that the Oompa Loompas have been pretty easy going through the whole movie, and we've finally come upon a situation where they have reservations.

EVERY LINE!

I literally was shaped as a child by the tone of this movie.

My sisters and i say lines from this movie almost on a daily basis and ive watched it for over 28 years.

every scene has a repeatable line.

The sarcasm, the cynicism, the humor!!!

Ive always loved the 1970s and 1980s. as seedy and dingy as the lighting can be I love it!

( insert flute piano diddle for code of entry) - Mike Teevees moms face...."Rockmonanoff"

What is this some kind of fun house? - why are you having any fun?
