One of my all time favorites.
hyped garbage
A waste of 90 minutes of my life
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Charlie Brown and Sally are planning to go to their grandmother's for Thanksgiving. But those plans are interrupted when pushy Peppermint Patty invites herself, Marcy, and Franklin over to Charlie Brown's house for Thanksgiving dinner. Linus has the solution: a dinner with Patty and friends before they head over to their grandmother's. Unfortunately, all Charlie Brown knows how to make is "cold cereal and maybe toast." In steps Snoopy and Woodstock to prepare the most unique Thanksgiving dinner any of these kids have ever had.As with the other Peanuts specials from the '60s & '70s, this is a treat for young and old alike. The wonderful characters and their relationships are what makes the old Peanuts cartoons so great. Lucy and the football, Peppermint Patty flirting with Chuck, Sally gushing over Linus, and Snoopy's misadventures with a lawn chair are just some of the highlights. Awesome Vince Guaraldi jazzy score including original song "Little Birdie." It's a cartoon guaranteed to make you grin ear to ear unless you're some kind of misanthrope.
We had a little Thanksgiving lunch get-together at work and an employee decided to play this cartoon short for some fun and laughs. I've never watched Charlie Brown cartoons growing up, and now that I've seen one, it was pretty good. All the adults in the room seemed to enjoy it for what it is - even though it is mostly geared towards the little ones.Here, Charlie Brown is in a dilemma and finds himself scrambling to make a last minute Thanksgiving dinner when three of his friends called and invited themselves over. Brown relied on Snoopy to make the meal and what results is something we could all learn from - thankfulness and friendship. It's not a riveting or exciting story with adventures and suspense, but it is an innocent and charming cartoon short that includes, in addition to the dinner, some laughable moments from Snoopy and Woodstock. The animation was also pretty good.It is a nice little movie for the entire family where, again, we could learn what it means to be thankful - especially during Thanksgiving!Grade B
Charlie Brown and Sally are going to their grandmother's for Thanksgiving. Peppermint Patty calls and invites herself and then Marcie and Franklin to Charlie Brown's for Thanksgiving. Linus suggests Charlie Brown have two Thanksgiving dinner with the help of Snoopy and Woodstock. Peppermint Patty is angered by the lack of traditional Thanksgiving food but Marcie convinces her to apologize. Charlie Brown's grandmother calls and invites everybody to her place.Peppermint Patty's voice by Christopher DeFaria is really rough and raspy. It's a little bit jarring. Otherwise, this is a charming Charlie Brown holiday special and it holds up well. It has the innocence of the simple cartoon drawings. Also it's a single story without the usual detours. This just has the sense of the impending Holidays that appears every Fall. I do wonder if there is anything wrong with Woodstock eating turkey.
Yes, here we actually had a Charlie Brown holiday where Linus was not a complete buzz kill. A change of pace from the norm for him, but his one is a simple tale of a couple of Charlie Brown's friends inviting themselves over for a Thanksgiving day feast when Charlie Brown is intending to go to his grandmother's house so he and his pal Linus and Snoopy cook up a feast all on their own. This grand meal including plenty of toast and popcorn. I like this one, to me it is the funniest of the three most well known ones...Halloween and Christmas being the other two. This one is also about the poor holiday stuck between Halloween and Christmas and to me seems to be almost a forgotten holiday these days as the retail stores push Halloween and Christmas and seem to ignore Thanksgiving all together. This one really shows the friend or family member that likes to kind of invite themselves to dinners and things like that this time of year as the culprit in this case is the ever exuberant Peppermint Patty. Marcie comes along too. I know lots of people that kind of tag along events such as these mainly because they do not want to cook themselves so I guess this one sort of hits home, and for me is the funniest and best of the holiday trio.
