The Scultz family wouldnt let any company touch the Peanuts without them in it, so they got his son and grandson to write this flick and work closely on it. Only way they would allow it to happen.

For good reason too, have you seen all the shytty remakes they been cranking out over the last decade.
I have my doubts about this movie as well, but at least now I can have some hope thanks to what you have shared

I'm not gone lie and say there hasn't been but seeing the trailer and seeing how its going to be kept with its roots of the animation style, just CGI, and the fact the family is doing this. Its about to be Snoopy season next year brehs

Son and grandson tho. Two guys we never heard of, have probably done nothing before this
Unless this family is similar to the Wayans, then I have my doubts on how much talent will come of this
How come these dudes haven't been carrying on tradition all these years?
Now, out the blue... They gonna do it, and do it right?

I believe this is all about money ultimately. Maybe the kids wanted to give it a shot
I just don't see it panning out, hope I'm wrong. But I doubt it

The son has been working on movies and tv shows before, in the art department and stuff. They did do a special years ago and it did good, so they decided to move forth with the movie. The reason they haven't been cranking them out cause once the dad died, they kinda stopped it cause they didn't want to mess with their dads creation so much.

There could be a new generation introduced to the zany thrills of the most famous World War I beagle flying ace ever in history — if the new team assembled to make Warner Bros.' March 29 release, "Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown," succeeds with this latest entry into the "Peanuts" oeuvre. That's the word from Craig Schulz, son of the late great Charles Schulz, creator of Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Lucy, Linus and rest of the beloved comic-strip gang.

"Next would be the 'Flying Ace' film. We've got that started, and we've been having a lot of trouble with it, but if the 'Blanket' show goes over well, I'm sure we'll find a way," he says.

According to Craig, "Every month or so, there will be a new producer who'll come up to Santa Rosa from L.A. with an idea for a new 'Peanuts' — with new themes, with the edginess that's out there in animation now. We get that constantly. But the family is really resolved that we're sticking with my dad's work."

Thus, "Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown" was made with painstaking effort toward authentically recreating the look, sound and feel of the classic 'Peanuts' specials. According to Craig, 95 percent of the dialogue comes from original Charles Schulz strips. The senior Schulz, you may recall, decided to end the strip when he retired rather than hand it over to anyone else.

Craig tells us the impetus for "Warm Blanket" came when Warner Bros. contracted for Peanuts (Paramount was the comic's former film home) and "within the contract were rights to two new specials." But without his father or the late director Bill Melendez, "We had to get all-new people and work from the ground up."

Craig served as one of the executive producers and writers of the new special along with Stephan Pastis — author of the "Pearls Before Swine" comic strip and an avid "Peanuts" fan.

A great break for Charlie Brown and his pals came when Pixar director Andy Beall ("Up," "Ratatouille") moved over to the "Peanuts shop."

"I always thought that no matter how good the story was or the voices were, if it didn't look right, we'd be in big trouble," says Schulz. "Once Andy came in, it started to look like the strips from the '60s. All the animators said the same thing: The characters look so simple, but they're extraordinarily difficult to animate."

As for the cast, "We had over 100 kids come in" to audition. He personally listened to a selection of candidates while going back and forth between recordings from the 1965 Christmas special "matching voices. It turned out Andy and I agreed on every voice, with the exception of Pigpen. I never thought we'd find a Sally, but we actually had a pair of sisters who each sounded like her."

The end result, which Warner is launching as a home video release, is exactly what Schulz had hoped for — a special so true to the originals, "It will seem to fans as if they must have missed it earlier." In it, Linus faces extreme blanket withdrawal as his blanket-hating grandmother's visit draws near.

Meanwhile, Schulz adds that "We're working hard" to expand the presence of "Peanuts" on Internet portals, iPods, mobile phones, etc.

They just didn't throw the last special together, they actually made it as close to the originals as possible.

So this last special has already aired? Or is this something to be released before the movie drops?
