FYI, ping!
It was a nice little film. Could have been shorter, though. I enjoyed Snoopy’s scenes the most. He seemed extra cuddly with his added fur. ; )
What? No transgendered characters? Pig Pen isn’t attacked by the EPA? Peppermint Patty and Marcie aren’t french-kissing?
Thank God, I would have hated for them to ruin yet another icon of my youth with typical Hollywood inaneness.
But Charlie Brown doesn’t have a black girlfriend so I am not seeing it.
/sarc.
**************There was a silly story about CB not having a Black girlfriend*****
I wonder if Token, I mean Franklin made an appearance?
Was a cute movie. A bit long for kids with the 30 minutes of previews these days, but enjoyable. Stayed true to the spirit of the comic strip.
“to prove he’s worthy of the girl’s attention by finally winning something, anything, just once in his life.”
My favorite Peanuts cartoon has Linus and Charlie Brown leaning on a fence. Linus says, “Well, you know how it is, Charlie. You win some, you lose some.”
Charlie says, “Sigh. Wouldn’t that be nice?”
“There is nothing new in The Peanuts Movie, and it’s a better thing because of it.”
Sometimes it is refreashing to see hollywierd take a break from thier normal proclivities and not of push the new normal progressive sexual agenda
It’s obviously not a Disney movie. Good for them.
Never really liked Peanuts. Too non confrontational and might have been the foundation for today’s GOPe/RINOs.
Always wanted CB to grow a pair, punch a few kids in the face and kick Lucy through the goalposts!
I recently have been watching films that make me smile. WWII era films with hosts of wonderful actors. I find that I end them with a smile on my face. Audrey Hepburn in Charade, Kiss them for Me, How to Marry a Millionaire, and so on.
I cannot tell you how happy these films make me, to look into the beautiful fantasy and fun some one has wrought for entertainment and enjoyment.
In the dregs of today’s dramas, I had forgotten how to be entertained and laugh out loud.
I am certainly going to see Charlie Brown, even if I have to go alone!
No gender-deranged characters in it? Isn’t that illegal?
Yeah no kidding. I bet they would love to have one of those characters (PP) to be a transgendered. Oh how we could teach the kids about diversity and all it’s wonders. Sorry but I have to go to the head and barf. Just typing that reply is repulsive.
Agree. But ol’ Snoopy was always the strong one. I can think of one ‘group’ that will hate THAT.
I’m so glad it looks to be a great family film.
Peanuts is literally the LAST family-friendly property that has not surrendered to being defiled by Hollywood with adult jokes and gross-out humor. The Muppets certainly has fallen into that hole.
I watched some trailers last night, and while months ago I was afraid that the stylistic changes would hurt the end production, it really does flesh out the world they inhabit better without giving away too much, if that makes any sense.
They stayed faithful the the vision of Schultz even though he didnt want any new cartoons to be made. Seeing the state of America today, I’m glad they did make this as kids really need to have one cartoon series that actually projects the good in this nation and the values that we used to have.
Any conservative parent should consider getting their kids into Peanuts. I have a huge collection of books of the strips going back to when I was a kid, and they never fail to get me to laugh and think. They always embodied great moral and maturity lessons, and never strayed from being totally innocent.
