Oyyyy... big eye roll here folks.
Well, the thread started off interesting.... and descended into excuses for watching sub-par filth. I mean honestly, and the films y'all mentioned aren't even good. Barely entertaining let alone, true art. Tim Burton? The only film that comes to mind is the first Michael Keaton Batman and everything else was trash with the same dark themes/motif over & over. Harry Potter has the Nazi/SS/Thule lightning bolt on his forehead, like ya... that's totally Kosher. I live in Hollywood actually and anyone in the town and especially, in the industry will tell you that this decade is a low for filmmaking in America- for the art as well as at the box office. The truly great time for film was the 70's and on up into the early 80's.
Kubrick. Now there's an evil filmmaker you should enjoy. Dark, but true artist and in every sense of the word. But he can also be traced to trashing our culture at large (to which he admitted to later on regretfully). Every director borrows from his style and almost every musician dons the Victorian-era Clockwork Orange clothes for at least 1 album cover.
I actually enjoy foreign films especially, those from the major studios out of India. They deal with real life topics and despite not being Christians their films are far more cleaner, well shot and interesting than, half of the pop trash that pours out of La La Land nowadays.
Hollywood is very pretty and fun to live in but also, a very sad place. I meet famous people often and I explain to them that they sold their soul for fool's gold out here in LA. So many go broke too when they don't go along with the agenda especially, African American talent. The smart celebs take the money and run... although they say its pretty hard to check out of the hotel here in California ;-)

Oh my gosh Reba, you actually liked what I had to say?? Wow, maybe there's some hope for you after all. The following video should be a meme if it isn't already.

You list some good similarities. However, for me the fabrication for the movie of the father-as-cruel-dentist plus the depiction by Depp of Wonka (which imho is largely unlike how Wonka is in the books) throws the whole thing down the chute.

So any depiction of a lightning bolt automatically means they're a Nazi?!? No Sir, I'm not buying it; that makes as much sense as what antifa says
Actually it's
