Bedknobs & Broomsticks is the one with Angela Lansbury, and has an immortal line from one of the kids - "Stop playing with my knob!" Something like that. Maybe it's "What are you doing with my knob?" Nevertheless, his knob is being manhandled in an inappropriate way and it's hilarious.

You mean when the little kid says something like "Oi keep your hands off my knob!" HAHAHA!

It's fantastic. I have the edited "non-musical" version where it cuts out all the songs, well nearly all of them, which is better. It is the much better cut of the film I think, the more serious one and also has a different ending. It ends after the house has been blown up. The stupid one with all the songs has an added scene on the end where suddenly the house is fine again and the guy goes off to war. How stupid.

It was one of my fave movies as a kid heheh. Althuogh I do skip the gay 15 minutes of cartoon part in the middle, the rest is just awesome! It has a great atmosphere I think hahahaha. And that part where Angela Lansbury puts her cat out and sees a German over the fence, along with the shots of the boats sailing to shore in the dead of the night and when David Tomlinson hears the guys at the station... spine chilling!!!

Best kids movie ever!

The Shaggy D.A. was a great one too! When I was 4 years old I was petrified of Furniture Removal Vans because of that, it scared the hell out of me! Hahaha!

Actually this is a pretty dark film. Does anyone agree? To me the factory was like a nightmare world disguised as a paradise. I don't know, but I always feel a vague sense of menace in this film, and Wonka is actually a sociopathic sadist. It's dressed up as a jolly kids' movie, but it's really a pretty heavy-handed morality tale.

The Oompa Loompas were enslaved!

The film was called Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and was adapted for the screen by the late, great Roald Dahl from his novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory .

Great movie, but I'm biased because Roald Dahl was my favourite author when I was a kid.

"I am now telling the computer *exactly* what it can do with a lifetime supply of chocolate."

"Right, I've decided that the test we take each Friday to see what we've learned during the week will now take place on Monday before we've learned it."

"Two? What d'you mean you only opened two? I can't work that out, so let's pretend you opened two hundred. Now, apart from being dreadfully sick..."

And of course:

"Oompa- Loompa, do-ba-dee-do. I've got another puzzle for you..."

Must get the DVD sometime .
