GENE Wilder bit his tongue when Johnny Depp starred in the 2005 remake of his 1971 classic, "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory." But he tells Time magazine, on stands today, "I haven`t seen it. I like Depp, but when I heard they were doing a remake, I heard: mistake. When I saw clips on TV and I saw what Depp was doing, I thought, `Don`t see the movie — you like Depp too much.` I always get comments: `Yours is better.` I know they`re talking about Willy Wonka." In fact Leonard Maltin`s "Movie Guide" says: "Depp, though amusing, is no Gene Wilder."

Poor Johnny it seems his film remake Willy Wonker and the Chocolate Factory gave the original Gene Wilder indigestion, never mind at least you tried better luck next time Johnny.
