I hate to be the naysayer but I was never a big fan of the chocolate factory movies....seemed to be influenced by a bit too many "recreational pharmaceuticals" IMO.
I think they could build up excitement for it if they advertise it in the right way.
No matter how grown up we make it sound...I just would not buy a ticket to go see the Chocolate factory.. Mythos and the facade of posidens furry are something grand...Imagine turning that into another seuss land? idk just doesnt make sense to me.

The pitch I heard is that it would be a HUGE multi-attraction "pavilion" styled of course to the Chocolate Factory itself surrounded by a small British village. There would be The Chocolate River Ferry, Fizzy Lifting Drink Lab, and the Glass Elevator.
Concerning the IP itself, the book is a retelling of Dante's Inferno. Showing the vices of "man" through children. Wonka represents both Virgil and The Ferryman.
But who buys a ticket specifically for Mythos and the facade of Poseidon's Fury?
I see the food being a hit, but not sure that merchandise would sell. I don't know that it is a popular enough brand.

But remember, this is all strictly blue sky/rumor at this point. But I have heard that it has been discussed. As far as I know they still haven't nailed down the KidZone redo IPs yet and this would come after that.
