When Willy opens the door to reveal the inside of the factory to the five kids and their guardians, the change from the pale colors outside of the factory to the bright, overly saturated world of the factory is an homage to Dorothy entering the land of Oz.

The part of the Wonka Welcome song where the animatronics start catching fire and melting is similar to the scene from House Of Wax where Vincent Price's Wax statues catch on fire and melt.
The Oompa Loompa's salute Willy Wonka in the same manner as the Plan 9 aliens salute their leader.
When the Oompa Loompas are rowing the pink dragon boat, there is a cut to an Oompa Loompa banging a drum. This is a reference to Ben-Hur when the slaves are chained to a boat and are rowing with oars and the camera cuts to a man banging a drum.
The footage of the shower head in the Mike Teavee song was the same exact shower head from Psycho
Having experimented with a hair growth formula, one Oompa loompa looks and sounds like Cousin It
In the end of the movie the girl that was turned into a blueberry when walking out of the factory with her mom took the same pose as the girl in the Exorcist when she was posessed by satan
Johnny Depp quotes the film by saying "Good Morning, Sunshine. The Earth Says Hello."
Johnny Depp imitates (and pays hommage to) the sound done by the extra-terrestrial in "La soupe aux choux".
During the scene in the boat, the boat is seen going sideways then spinning past a round door that has a "Jelly Beans" sign above it. Shortly after this, the boat goes past another round door that has a "Beetle Juicing" sign above it.
Charlie's dad produces a toothpaste called "Smilex" - the name of the poisonous gas used by the Joker in Batman
The first glimpse of Willy Wonka, he is cutting the ribbon to his new factory. He turns around and aludes to two previous Tim Buton/Johnny Depp films: his hand is consumed by a large pair of sisscors, much like edward sisscorhands, and his eyes are covered with bizarre glasses, mumch like those in Sleepy Hollow.
Pink-wooled sheep being shaved refrences 'Ed Wood' (1994) and the title character's pink angora sweaters.
The bizarre glasses that Wonka wears upon first meeting the children reference similar ones seen in Burton/Depp's Sleepy Hollow.

Mike Teavee is shrunk inside a television, and as he is being flipped through the various channels, and just before his father picks him up he yells "Help me!" a few times in a high pitched voice because he's so small.
When Teavee is in the television, he is transferred into an altered scene from the movie Psycho.
A direct reference to 2001: A Space Odyssey when Charlie sees the gorillas jumping up and down around the candy bar, exactly like the obelisk scene in 2001 with the same scene where the gorillas jump up and down around it. The "theme song" of 2001: A Space Odyssey ( "Also Sprach Zarathustra" by Strauss) is played during this scene,
Mike Teevee's song features oompa loompas spoofing spinal tap in concert.
