	The DVD Journal: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory: Special Edition
		Willy Wonka's pacing is dead-on, too; the movie strings us along for the better part of an hour before actually taking us through the factory gates, building our anticipation and introducing us to the five children lucky enough to procure the sought-after golden tickets tucked away inside bars of Wonka chocolate.
		As with the track on Warner's The Goonies disc, the reunion commentary will delight fans who've loved Willy Wonka since they were kids — the five actors watched the movie together for the first time in 30 years while recording the track, and it's fun to listen to their in-jokes and reminisces.

		In the course of the tour, Willy Wonka punishes the four nastier children in various diabolical methods -- one kid is inflated and covered with blueberry dye, another ends up as a principal ingredient of the chocolate, and so on -- because these kids have violated the ethics of Wonka's factory.
		Ostensibly set in England, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was lensed in Germany (as revealed by the film's final overhead shot).
