Until now, our favorite hot button theory about Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory has been that Grandpa Joe is the true villain of the film and the Roald Dahl book it's based on. This Tumblr thread from user evayna changes all of that. In the film, the impoverished Charlie ends up winning the f*cked up competition, thus inheriting Wonka's fortune and position as the world's most deranged and masochistic candy maker. Evayna believes that this honor should have been bestowed to the gum-chewing Violet Beauregarde, and she's got some solid evidence to back this theory up. We're 100% sold.

- Andy's hat looks more like Jesse's hat than Woody's hat.
-Jesse is pictured with that hat in her previous owner's room
-Jesse's previous owner is old enough to be Andy's mom and has the same hair color.
Unfortunately, Pete Doctor, the writer of several Pixar films has denied any truth to this theory.... but he could be lying right? RIGHT?
