Saw the new film this week, and was wondering if the differenncesfrom the original, were based on the book e.g.

Charlie having a dad

Violet takinhg her Mum and not her Dad to the factory, and Mike taking his Dad and not his Mum. It's the other way round in the 1st movie.

No soda pop that makes Charlie and grandpa Jo fly

No everlasting gobstopper trick

The squirrels

Also, I recognise Mrs Boregard, and Mike Teevee. Any idea what they've been in?

Cheers

(12:13 on Sat 06/Aug/05) Funny, we were discussing these very differences the other day! It's been a while since I read the book, but if I remember correctly, in the book there was no flying soda pop, and there were squirrels, not geese.

My understanding is the new film is based on the book.The only thing that isn't based on the book is the background story of Willy Wonka.
