Poor Grandpa Joe… he forgets how to use his legs and then when the best thing that could ever happens to him happens and he remembers how to walk he just gets abused! Surely just the thought of seeing those little oompa-loompa’s working their little socks off is enough to jog any old mans memory.

Because it's one of the few movies that's relatively faithful to its source, I bristle at the condemnation of Grandpa Joe as a slacker. Please note that he's a responsible adult figure in the movie (certainly compared to the other parents).

In addition, it's a musical--what, you want logic in a movie where people burst into song to explain their feelings?

What a lazy bastard! It was my favorite book as a kid, I never caught the evil capitalist pig side of it till later. Grandpa, you low life freeloader.
