Grandpa Joe quotes from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)

Grandpa Joe

YIIIPPEEEEE!

Grandpa Joe

She's swelling up!

Grandpa Joe

All together, we're 381 years old. We never wait.

Veruca Salt

Here are your instructions.

Veruca Salt

Make time go faster!

Violet Beauregarde

Mr Wonka!! [After the Oompa Loompa's stopped singing, and after she was swollen up like a blueberry]

Augustus Gloop

I'm eating the Wonka bar, and I taste something that is not chocolate, or coconut, or walnut, or peanut butter, or nougat, or butter brittle, or caramel, or sprinkles. So I look, and I find the Golden Ticket! [while being interviewed]

Grandma Georgina

You smell like peanuts... I love peanuts!

Grandpa Joe

I saw Willy Wonka with my own two eyes. I used to work for him, you know.

Charlie Bucket

You did?

He did.

He did.

Grandma Georgina

I love grapes!

Grandpa Joe

Of course, I was a much younger man in those days.

Charlie Bucket

But it didn't close forever, it's open right now.

Ah yes, well, sometimes when grown-ups say "forever" they mean "a very long time".

Besides, I feel as though I've eaten nothing but cabbage soup forever.

Now pops...

Charlie Bucket

There must be people working there.

Grandma Josephine

Think about it, Charlie. Have you ever seen a single person going into that factory? Or coming out of it?

Charlie Bucket

No. The gates are always closed.

Grandpa Joe

Exactly.

Charlie Bucket

But then, who's running the machines?

Nobody knows, Charlie.

It certainly is a mystery.

Charlie Bucket

Hasn't someone asked Mr. Wonka?

Grandpa Joe

Nobody sees him anymore. He never comes out. The only thing that comes out of that place is the candy. Already packed and addressed. I'd give anything in the world just to go in one more time and see that what's become of that amazing factory.

Willy Wonka

Ha ha ha, wasn't that just magnificent? I thought it was getting a little dodgy in the middle part, but that finale...Wow!

Who are you?

Grandpa Joe

He's Willy Wonka!

Charlie Bucket

Really!

Willy Wonka

Good morning starshine, the Earth says hello! [takes out flash cards] Greetings. Welcome to my factory. I shake you warmly by the hand. My name is Willy Wonka.

Veruca Salt

Then shouldn't you be up there? [points to stage]

Willy Wonka

Well, I couldn't very well watch the show from up there, now, could I, little girl?

Grandpa Joe

Mr. Wonka, I don't know if you remember me, but I used to work here in the factory.

Willy Wonka

Were you one of those despicable spies who everyday tried to steal my life's work and sell it to those parasitic copy-cat candy-making cads?

Grandpa Joe

No, sir.

Willy Wonka

Wonderful, welcome back. Lets get a move on, shall we?

Augustus Gloop

Don't you want to know our names?

Willy Wonka

Couldn't see how it wouldn't matter.

Charlie Bucket

Are the Oompa Loompas really joking, Grandpa?

Grandpa Joe

Of course, they're joking. That boy will be fine.
[just before they walk off, Grandpa Joe's smile turns to a grim expression]

She's even worse than the fat boy.

Charlie

I didn't think that was really fair. She didn't find the ticket herself.

Grandpa Joe

Don't worry, Charlie. That man spoils his daughter. And no good ever comes of spoiling a child like that.
