Theres a lot of that in this movie, and its usually darkly funny.
8"That’s exploding candy for your enemies.
Not ready yet, though."

Sass score: 6/10
Theres only a little sarcasm present in this quote… possibly.
Its a bit hard to tell with Willy Wonka.
Oh, and of course, Gene Wilders delivery goes a long way.
Can mere mortals comprehend a mind like Wonka’s?
7"I take very good care of my guests."
6"There’s no better time to learn."
5"Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker."
4"Help.
Police, murder."

This prompts a scarcely moresarcastic Gene Wilder to say, entirely deadpan, “Help.
Police, murder.”
Police and the help they may or may not provide cannot do anything in such a realm.

3"Why?
Are you having fun?"
Some kind of funhouse?

Without missing a beat, Wonkahits back with another question in lieu of a straightforward answer: Why?
2"The suspense is terrible…
I hope it’ll last."

There are too manymusical numbers inWilly Wonka & the Chocolate Factoryfor suspense to last too long.
Also, its not really a thriller in any way, so suspense doesnt play a role.
I hope it’ll last."

1"Stop.
Come back," is so blunt and comparable to the aforementioned Wonka quote where he says, Help.
Police, murder, but this ones even funnier than that instance.
