Hi Colin!
I posted my thoughts in the official review
area, but you just brought up a great point
that I missed, but bothered me greatly during
this viewing.
In the new film, Charlie wins by default simply
because there were no other kids left. It happens
rather abruptly, and I didn't care for it at all.
In the original, Charlie wins when he returns
the "everlasting gobstopper" to Wonka who realizes
the boy is morally sound.
