So the thing about the Yelnats curse is that Zero's ancestor, Madam Zeroni, had made a deal with Stanleys Great great grandfather, if he carries his pig up a mountain every day, and makes it drink from the water, it'll grow big, so that he can give it to this girl he likes, and at the end of the deal, he would need to do the same for her, but after realizing the girl didn't really care who she married, he broke the deal, and went to America, ending up in the now cursed Desert of Green Lake, being robbed by kissing Kate, two people whose lives were ruined.
During the movie, Zero gets badly hurt and Stanley carries him up the thumb mountain, and since Zero is a Zeroni, Stanley just completed the deal that his great great grandfather didn't, so not only does the treasure get found and Kate and Sam are both avenged, but the Yelnats curse was lifted and they were allowed to find what was legally theirs, if Kate never robbed Yelnats, the curse never would've been lifted for either of them.
And the "Sploosh" that Stanley and Zero found in the boat is actually peaches, Kate gave Sam peaches, in exchange for him fixing the school house when needed, and Sam sold onions for some time, so not only were Stanley and Zero technically saved by Kate and Sam, but Sams onions flourished on the same mountain that Yelnats (supposedly) died on, and the curse would be lifted, almost as if they were connected
And the best part is that the Yelnats do also realize how to make their shoes smell better... Peaches and Onions, you cannot tell me it was NOT fate, the intricate details of this movie is what I feel should've made this a classic amongst ALL households

The reason the counselor was out to get Zero, its because he enjoyed having control over the kids emotionally, but Zero gave him nothing. We see in the scene were they are in a circle, that he says Zero won't talk to him and when he does, he gives him a sarcastic answer...
So it was an Ego thing. Like "Its not that I'm a bad councelor, you are just a bad patient".

Sam also said his onions act as repellent for Yellow Spotted Lizards, hence why none of them attack Stanley and Hector in the treasure hole, because they ate from the spot Sam picked from. The same mountain climbed is also where Stanley 1 found refuge after Kate robbed him. A lot of clever foreshadowing.

There's actually only one significant difference between the book and movie:
In the book, Stanley was overweight, and being sent to the camp made him lose all of it to where he was super skinny.
They chose not to do this because forcing Shia LaBeouf to lose all that weight on the quick schedule they were on would've caused significant damage to his adolescent body.

My favorite thing about the movie was how the stories intertwined. The boat that Zero seeks refuge in the middle of the desert belonged to Sam, the preserved peaches he and Stanley ate were giving to Sam by Kate, the onions that saved them were most likely from the same place Sam harvested the ones he sold, and at the end, when the kids are surrounded by yellow-spotted lizards, they don't get bitten because, as Sam claimed earlier in the movie, the lizards hate his onions.

so 10:15 for all you wonderin the peaches were spiced and sealed so they should theoretically last forever and also zero drank one that wasn't sealed properly which is why he faints when climbing the mountain (this was only in the book)

Zero hitting that guy with a shovel, proving he can now read, and running tf out of there is a 10/10 moment
