On this episode of Objection! Your Fiction, Lee and Cooper chat with Thomas Brennan about liability issues in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971). Like the totally normal businessman he is, Mr. Wonka thought ahead and had the attendees sign a waiver the size of a room before embarking on their tour. But can this unreadable contract signed by children protect Willy and his factory/amusement park/deathtrap? Thomas, Lee, and Cooper ponder Liability in Loompaland and decide which of the children’s cases would be most likely to prevail in court. It’s a fascinating conversation revisiting a childhood classic and we hope you find it as interesting as we did. Let us know what you think!
Thomas Brennan is a partner at Vigorito, Barker, Patterson, Nichols & Porter LLP. His practice focuses include construction litigation, medical malpractice, and general liability. He has yet to try a case of accidental blueberrification.
