how could you not know you wanted a milton origin story?

Few things in life bug me more than those 5 second trailers before a trailer.
Agreed. It's like abbreviating an abbreviation.
It's like if Milton was Neo

Who the hell started this trend and why?
Blame the attention span of millennials. Years ago, studios found that a certain age demographic would click out of a trailer if they weren't grabbed within the first few seconds. Literally, that's all the time they would give trailers. So, in order to keep them watching, some genius idiot decided to preview the trailer before the trailer.
Thank you for the explanation. Makes sense.

TL;DR.

Well done
I'm absolutely going to watch that and probably love it.
The only question I have is if Chalemet has it in him to be that little extra level of crazy that Wilder and Depp have in them naturally.

Yeah his performance comes off a bit weird in the trailer. Maybe it will grow on me.
Also the Oompa Loompa seemed too small.
Still looks pretty fun though.

Might be great as a prequel with him getting a little more weird by the end.
I thought Chalamet was a good choice for a young Wonka, but, man, that trailer is flat. None of the flamboyance and energy that Wonka has. Hopefully the film is better, but that's not a good first look.wangus12 said:
This is one of those trailers that me makes shake my head at Hollywood. I love Chalemet, but yeah, everything about this falls incredibly flat for me.

Did whoever do this also do the Fantastic Beast series? This trailer felt like you could replace Chalemet and chocolate with Redmayne and it'd just be another one of those movies.
Spot on comparison, but not the same team. It's from the Paddington filmmakers, which, by all accounts, are great movies, but man, I just don't see it here. Would love to proven wrong, though.
My only hope is that he continues to get more flamboyant as the movie goes on.
Fun fact about the original Willy Wonka -- it flopped in theaters (made only $4M) and remained in obscurity until it started airing on TV in the 80's. Then it gained cult status.
I bet they could make a pretty penny if they re-released Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory 3 months before this prequel as a marketing ploy. Get some money from ticket sales (I would go see it again) and get the Wonka universe on people's minds again leading up to the December release.Brian Earl Spilner said:

I'm sure that would cost way more money than it's probably worth but it would be a nice touch.
The guy who played Charlie is also a veterinarian now in Dallas.
Also, the boat ride scene is still terrifying.

For me, Hugh Grant as an Oompa Loompa was the funniest bit of the trailer.

My wife's take on this was "I don't want to watch it, but I want to read the Wikipedia page after it comes out."
Thanks and gig'em
This looks fantastic...

The Rock got 50 mil for his new Amazon film. But yeah, this model is totally rational and sustainable.
