I generally love Chalamet, but he is definitely over acting in the clips I've seen...like here in this clip around the 17 second mark where he says "making chocolate o' course" it just sounds so fake and trying too hard. And he's making the Jim Carrey kinda facial movements. Just too much.

The supporting cast seems pretty great though. I love Keegan-Michael Key in basically EVERYTHING he does, and Hugh Grant as the Oompa Loompa looks hilarious....also Matt Lucas and Rowan Atkinson are plusses.

Seems like with a better lead, this could have been amazing. But they had to jump on the "It" guy...surprised it's not Oscar Isaac or Pedro Pascal lol....I'll wait till streaming, if I even watch it.

I just realized I never linked the video lol Here ya go:




Like someone said in the comments of the trailer, Old Willy Wonka wasn't perfect, he was still trying to get the Fizzy Lifting Drinks correct and had things go wrong in the factory.....but Chalamet's Wonka is way younger but yet seems to do everything perfectly and can master candies quickly and easily it seems. Oh wells

First tried online, which genuinely never works. Kept getting 404s and redirects. So I called. On hold for 20 min. Passed me over twice. No longer a Condé Nast employee talking to me, I’m not even sure it was a person. My wife gifted me the subscription three years ago, and I kept paying for it the following 2 years, but they wanted all of her and all of my contact and payment info, and offered me a billion discounts before they finally let me cancel. Wasn’t very fun.
 
it really should be illegal for you not to be able to cancel services like cable, magazines/newspapers, etc online. like if you legit don't want it anymore just push the button and it's done. you're free to call up if you like doing things over the phone or if you wanna try and finagle a discount.

At least if the subscription was originated online I agree.

Need a federal law like California's cancellation law. If you can start a subscription online you have to be able to cancel it online.

that seems like something the Biden admin would (should) look into as it's in line with stuff they're working on like junk fees and all-in pricing on things.
 
My office is located over a chocolate shop and occasionally the smell of whatever they're making permeates our floor and it is torture because I want to now eat all of the things.
 
Wait you are telling me your spotify year end wrap hasn't been overtaken by Bluey songs, Blippi songs, and that one random Greek song your kids love dancing to? Well then, I just don't know what to tell you.
 
do you think Charlotte is the major city with the highest amount of quarter zips per capita? Atlanta? Dallas? Nashville?
 
youtube TV has the best cancellation process. You can pause until whatever date you want or just cancel outright with just a click of a button.
 
I wonder what percentage of the average subscription-based service is people that either have forgotten that they are paying it or people that would like to cancel but have been deterred by how difficult the cancelling process is made to be. I bet there's some subscription-based services that would cease to exist if those two categories of subscribers were removed
