[@Sigh_chedelic]

I get what you mean, but I guess it makes sense since Sally is blonde.

[@SMPandanic]

makes me wonder why is hair is SO BLONDE it's invisible to us

[@chaddickhaut140]

​@@SMPandanicit's partly a function of CB having a burr haircut with only a little tuft of hair in the front. Hair so short it's only one step removed from bald.

[@derekg5006]

When I was young I assumed he was bald with one strand because of the peanuts movie, but when I saw what he looks like in an old strip, I saw how his hair was drawn and just kinda understood what was going on. His hair is short and feint enough where all you really needed was a squiggle to represent the little bit of tuft in it's cartoon style. And looking at the way the others have their hair drawn it makes sense

Agree. Another example I can think of is Football KZbinr Maqwell who typically makes an annual Eurovision video out of passion.

[@dakotabragdon3738]

Lovely video! I would like to add some information on "A Boy Named Charlie Brown" - this was only the third film to play at Radio City (after Bambi and Snow White), and was the first non-Disney animated film to be nominated for an Oscar (Best Original Score, it lost to Let it Be). It also grossed $315,253 at Radio City during Christmas week, which, as reported by Cinema Center Films, and printed in Variety "the biggest week gross in cinema history" for one theater (this has since been broken I believe).

[@bdalbor]

I have to say that when I found your videos on the Peanuts specials about 8 months ago, that is one of the main reasons why I'm into Peanuts as heavily as I am today. It has become a genuine emotional comfort for me to watch the old specials and read the Sunday strips, seeing all of these characters interacting together. Even though I liked Snoopy and the Peanuts years before, I have found a love and appreciation for these characters now that I haven't found in any other TV show or movie. And since I'm on the Autism spectrum, it is very difficult for me to find the right series to relate to. I really have to thank you for that.

A Boy Named Charlie Brown for one has tracks by Rod McKuen, and of course as you yourself highlight, Sherman Brothers soundtrack in Snoopy Come Home, which in my view I've always seen as a bit jarring (but to fair, not bad).

[@KremBotop]

Kinda agree tbh. Just watched Race for your Life recently and while I enjoyed it, Peppermint Patty really got on my nerves. She somehow became more annoying and cruel to Charlie than how Lucy usually is. At least it solidified Sally as my favorite of the group, she always has those quirky out of nowhere one-liners.

[@geoffreyrichards6079]

I will defend the positive ending of the 2015 “Peanuts Movie” on the grounds that it was a sendoff to Charles Schultz, considering that the film’s story was created by his children in honor of his legacy. Fun Fact: My grandfather taught Schultz’s kids English literature at the elementary school they attended.

[@That_One_Gaming_Guy]

That's actually pretty cool

[@GatsbyCioffi]

I also remember hearing that Schulz ultimately regretted, or at least seemed to regret, that Charlie never got to kick the football. I think that letting Charlie finally win wouldn't be too off base for what he would've eventually wanted. Had he been able to pre-plan a final sendoff, he probably would've come up with something similar.

[@KremBotop]

​@@GatsbyCioffiYeah, his declining health in the late 90s might've caused him to abruptly end the strip without being able to give it or Charlie's story a proper send-off. So what his family did for the 2015 movie was a great way to make up for it. And even though we eventually got more Peanuts animations afterwards with the Apple TV stuff, those are not really Charlie Brown centric, so his arc technically did end in the movie. What's more impressive about the 2015 movie is how it found a plausible way to simultaneously break two of Charlie Brown's biggest "curses" of "not being able to fly a kite" and "not being able to talk to his crush" as part of the movie's climax. All while still leaving the "not being able to kick the Football " and "not being able to win a game" ones mostly unresolved in order to not fully break tradition, though those did previously get broken in a few specials.

[@SAPProd]

Race For Your Life Charlie Brown was my first exposure to Peanuts, period. 1982, my brain starting to form coherent long-term memory, this film along with Star Wars, Star Trek II, and Raiders of the Lost Ark are the films I watched the most (yes, I was 3 years old and these were the films I was watching). It’s the standard by which I judge all Peanuts films. Bob Voyage is the second Peanuts film I watched the most. The meandering pace didn’t bother me cuz anything Peanuts was great to me as a child. The Peanuts Film is definitely a weird piece in comparison to the other Peanuts films, but I see it as a love letter to Peanuts from fans. When The Little Red-Haired Girl tells Charlie Brown why she thinks he’s great, that’s all of us speaking thru the filmmakers for the 50+ years Schultz shared his talent with us. I know Schultz never wanted Charlie Brown to win (he can never kick the football), but I wish he’d have been capable of drawing a proper final strip where, instead of Snoopy essentially writing the farewell speech, instead have the final strip echo the first, but have as many characters from the series as possible watch Charlie Brown pass by, and say “there goes good ol’ Charlie Brown…how we love him!” Life can suck most of the time, but I think even Schultz can agree that sometimes, it’s worth living. Thank you for your videos. Peanuts content is always must watch for me.

[@L_A_R_G]

25:41 Charles Schulz himself explicitly stated that “times change, _and music reflects those changes.”_ Not to mention that he created Joe Cool and _Flashbeagle_ which were directly influenced by the music of their respective eras Modern music has always been a part of Peanuts.

[@DKdrop]

That’s true, but it still feels wrong. Maybe it’s because the song has non-diegetic lyrics. That sort of thing feels wrong in the older specials too, at least to me.

[@KremBotop]

Makes sense, though it's a shame that the movie's staff didn't think about bringing Fergie for the mandatory tie-in pop song considering she voiced Sally in the 80s. It might've not been very good per se, but that could've at least been a fantastic Easter Egg.

[@thaniahernandez5345]

Since you mentioned Snoopy and Woodstock's relationship, a weird but true fact about Woodstock is that he was originally a girl in the comics, which was supposedly emphasized by how the character was Snoopy's secretary in certain early appearances. But probably around the same time Schulz decided to give the character a name, he also decided that the character would be male from then on. He even admitted it in an interview, saying that the good thing about comics was that they made it easier to make those sort of changes. So perhaps there can be a case for Woodstock being an official trans character as a result, or it can be viewed the same way as it is when an animal's sex isn't clear. Fans should feel free to make whatever conclusions they want though.

i wasn’t upset that snoopy was used to sell metlife, i was upset once they dropped him.

[@landonsantini365]

30:41 - I don't know if it'll make you feel better to hear this, but you're wrong. I'm the single person that agrees with you. "Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown" is my favorite of the Peanuts movies too. It might be partly nostalgia based since it was the first one of these films I ever saw after renting it from my local video store (God I'm Old) but it seems the most like a "Movie" to me. It seems like it has this grand scale about it that the other ones don't. I feel that "A Boy Named Charlie Brown" is the best in terms of being a psychological character piece for Charlie Brown, "Snoopy Come Home" is the best at giving Snoopy a much more well-rounded personality, emotional range and storyline rather than just dicking around for comic relief and the Blue Sky movie has a soft spot in my heart for creating what has apparently come to be considered The Little Red-Haired Girl's definitive design if the recent spike in shipping fanart between her and ol' Chuck is anything to go by. Don't worry. Pretty much everyone agrees that "Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown" is the worst. I'd probably like it a lot more if it was just a special and not a full-on movie. Take out a good chunk of the filler and this could probably be trimmed down to less than a hour.

Anybody else notice Sally's dress changed color ever since The Peanuts Movie?

[@KremBotop]

Yeah, I was so used to it being light blue. Peanuts basically pulled a Disney's Sleeping Beauty color change on Sally's dress. And the funny thing is that both are blondes and had the same dress color change. Guess there was a need to make Sally a bit more distinct from the rest of the female cast since Lucy is the one most remember using a blue dress. Also, Sally's design in the 2015 movie really feels like the middle ground of her classic and modern designs. It established the pink dress of today but restored her wider / longer hair from the earlier specials.

It ends like this. SPOILER ALERT: Snoopy walks to Lila's apartment looking depressed, then he spots a "no dogs allowed" sign at the entrance and becomes the happiest dog in the world. Snoopy shows Lila the sign and uses this as an excuse to come back home. When he does, Charlie Brown and company cheerfully welcome him back and celebrate.

Just found out earlier this week. The "big city" idea appears that it's probably going to be set in an NYC inspired place. Pity it's most likely going to be an Apple TV exclusive though. At least Schulz's family is once again involved in the creative team so even if the Apple TV specials have been divisive, hopefully the next movie can be as good as the 2015 one. Wonder if it'll use a 2D or hybrid 3D style. And it should at least get some theatrical release before being put on streaming.
