Wonka's throne is the same one used by The Joker during the parade scene. Johnny Depp holding a very large pair of scissors for the ribbon-cutting of the factory looks familiar too. Mr. Wonka introduces himself to the tour group by Waxing Lyrical: "Good morning, Starshine! The Earth says... Hello!" Mr. Wonka's demonstration of the teleporter is this to 2001: A Space Odyssey, complete with The Monolith and "Also sprach Zarathustra". The five musical numbers each provide shout-outs to something or other in their styles and/or visuals. "Wonka's Welcome Song" = "It's a Small World" (although it can also be interpreted as a Take That! at the cornier songs in the 1971 film adaptation of this novel, i.e. "The Candy Man") "Augustus Gloop" = Bollywood and Esther Williams musicals "Violet Beauregarde" = The Jackson 5 song "Dancing Machine" "Veruca Salt" = The Byrds' "Turn! Turn! Turn!" "Mike Teavee" = Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" The score for the "Loompa Land" scene, most notably the "Hoo Haa!" chanting, recalls Danny Elfman's own score from Forbidden Zone. It's very, very brief, but when the Oompa-Loompa in the TV Room that's seated in front of the TV first changes the channel, you can hear a brief snippet of the Macarena. When Mike's dad rescues the now-miniaturized boy from the TV set: "Help me! Help me!" (It's actually the second time Burton has used that gag).
