Movie Reviews of Peanuts: I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown (Deluxe Edition)
Movie Review: *Sweet* Addition To "A Charlie Brown Christmas"
Summary: 5 Stars
Of course, I WANT A DOG FOR CHRISTMAS, CHARLIE BROWN (PEANUTS) DVD may not have that je ne sais quoi that made A Charlie Brown Christmas (Remastered Deluxe Edition) a yearly holiday favorite for many but it's still a wonderful addition to your Peanuts collection.
The story revolves around Linus and Lucy Van Pelt's baby brother Rerun who, as the title states, wants a dog for Christmas. He likes having fun with Snoopy and so he decides that it would be great if he had a dog of his own. But his mother won't let him have one and so he has to settle with hanging out with Snoopy's brother Spike, who comes down for a visit.
Rerun is a great character and very endearing, so even though this Peanuts special focuses a lot of screen time on him, you won't be missing the other characters too much--and all the main ones make appearances throughout IWADFCCB anyway.
The extras include a bonus TV special and a featurette:
***BONUS SHOW***
--- Happy New Year, Charlie Brown ---
Fun episode that has the Peanuts gang celebrating New Year's Eve and Charlie Brown misses an opportunity to get a midnight kiss from the red-haired girl. The only thing that bothered me about this episode was that "Peppermint Patty's" voice was a little high for my taste. Here, she actually sounds like a girl rather than an ambiguous character like in A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (Remastered Deluxe Edition).
***FEATURETTE***
--- Sibling Rivalry: Growing Up Van Pelt ---11:09-minutes
The featurette has Lee Mendelson (executive producer), Jeannie Schulz (wife of the late Peanuts creator Charles M. Schulz), Nat Gertler (Peanuts historian), and Dana Chidekel (author) discuss the intro of the character "Rerun," who made his debut in the comic strip in 1972. They talk about the character's appearance throughout the years and how this cartoon was made after Schulz's death, etc. and they talk about how "I Want A Dog..." was basically taken right from the comic strip.
***TRAILERS***
Trailers for Peanuts: 1970's Collection, Vol. 1 (It's a Mystery Charlie Brown / Play It Again / A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving / It's the Easter Beagle / There's No Time for Love / You're Not Elected), It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (Remastered Deluxe Edition), and Peanuts: Snoopy's Reunion.
Anyway, this is another great episode from Peanuts and would make a great addition to your Charlie Brown collection.
