I saw the two “oompa-loompas” were on Good Morning Britain today but I haven’t watched the clip yet.

Brilliant idea from the founders. Yes it’s a bait n switch, but the amount of publicity they got from this, people will pay money to experience it for the irony alone now. Profit.

I believe they returned all money and shut it down though?

“I’m constantly applying for more acting jobs and comedy work, then I got a phone call saying, ‘Congratulations you are going to play Willy Wonka, we will send you over the script and dress rehearsal is tomorrow.’ The script was 15 pages of AI-generated gibberish of me just monologuing these mad things ... at the end of my monologue, I was supposed to suck up the Unknown Man with a vacuum cleaner. I asked them if they had a vacuum cleaner and they said, ‘yeah, we haven’t really got there yet, so just improvise’.”

This is probably my favorite viral story right. It just gets crazier and more hilarious the more that comes out. What an absolute shitshow

Its amazing how the organizers looked at the set up and thought "This will work"


Looks like a Neighborhood level set-up that Bob & Jane threw together for the kids.

Reminds me of a shitty dinosaur exhibit thing I brought my kids to years ago at the Sugar Mill in downtown New Orleans. It was expensive, and they had Home Depot blowups outside and target type Bluetooth radios playing “dinosaur music.”

It looks like Vacation Bible School at a small Independent Baptist church. All it’s missing is puppets.


Don't forget pasta art.
