I've had this idea for quite some time and I'm glad I finally got around to making it! With the Johnny Depp verdict and all, it's actually a pretty good time for it now.
Question: In your opinion, who is the best live action Willy Wonka?

@saimcheeda93

This is a nice way to show the difference between them. They're both whimsical but Gene Wilder's Wonka is more fatherly and caring while Depp's is childlike and eccentric

@TeddyBear-pm4qq

I can just imagine both Willy Wonkas getting along, they’d really compliment each other and come up with so many ideas

@rainpooper7088

I love how New Wonka chuckles at Old Wonka‘s falling somersault trick like he understands the joke right away instead of being taken by surprise like the crowd in the original scene.

@twist58

At least Gene Wilder acknowledged Johnny Depp's portrayal of his former character with high remarks before the former passed away. From one legend to another.

@BazukinBelyugovich

This is the first time I ever noticed just how sweet Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka voice is. Compared to Johnny Depp's socially anxious way of speaking, Wilder speaks with such a calm and gentle tone of voice. Both performances work perfectly for their respective film adaptations, as they tell different stories for Willy Wonka.
Lovely tribute ❤

@melaniebieber1998

Rest In Peace to Gene Wilder who played the role of Willy Wonka in the 1971 movie Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory

@itz_yeastic

This is what we all wanted when the second Charlie and the Chocolate Factory released, you made it come true 😭❤

@monster_fiz_the_story_lover

There is no superior or inferior, both are great, they are special in their own way. Depp and Wilder has the charisma needed for both character to come to life and they nailed it.

@emmypersonal4033

Would it be too much to ask for more of this??? Like maybe perhaps a mini series? This was so nice!

@ChiChiDoesStuff

Why is this so wholesome?!

@EdenLand17

That had to be so hard to edit, total props. Well done.😌👏

@brandonspain12345

I was expecting a fight between them, but my 7 year old braindead fanboy mind made me realize not everything has to be fighting and violence. Especially with Johnny Depp's trial and Gene Wilder's unfortunate death. Both absolute legends that will live forever in our hearts, new and old. I hope Timothee Chalamet will be as good as them.

@MTJfan2017

I kinda wish it went on longer… I would love seeing them tour the factory together and talk and tell stories.

@ryanstauffer119

Now I wish there really were some multiverse crossover film of these two guys. Just imagine them discussing how one has geese that lay golden eggs and the other has squirrels sorting nuts.

@royalzavala8545

If only Gene Wilder was still alive, I would’ve like to see him and Johnny react to this video together. I bet Gene is up there smiling down on us.

@chrisfinch8637

I can't think of a better way to pay tribute to the legend himself. Johnny meeting the spirit of Gene together? Really speaks so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

@roarmbee7045

Both versions are great in their perspective roles, i loved both Gene Wilder and Johnny Depp, they shaped my childhood, Thanks for making this man.

@danraul9759

"Lets boogie" the way Depp says it will always live in my head rent free 🤣

@JinWBO

Amazing editing skills! It's also very refreshing to see a video that embraces both versions, rather than becoming a petty war zone on which is better. Love this!
