Charlie Brown's best friend Linus awaits the coming of the Great Pumpkin on All Hallows Eve
Our Review of It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown - Deluxe Ed. DVD
Warner Bros. has re-released this movie as a remastered deluxe edition. One think I did notice as soon as the movie began was the amazing clarity of the picture. You will notice small things that either did not appear years ago on TV, or I never noticed, such as their faces turning color when embarrassed. The quality was just astounding compared to what I remembered.
There are also a few other great bonuses. For instance there is another full cartoon entitled It's Magic Charlie Brown, which I actually did not expect after watching the Great Pumpkin episode. What is even better is that I had never seen it before. Warner Bros. also included a really great Documentary about the making of this animated cartoon. It includes all types of really cool facts and information, such as -- did you know that the voices of the characters are all by actual children and not adult voice actors? This is a great DVD that will be watched, even if it is not Halloween.

Peanuts has been one of the most beloved comic strips in the world since its birth in 1950 by creator Charles M. Schulz. Charlie Brown, Linus, Snoopy, Lucy and Sally captured the hearts of America on paper and were later starring in their very own TV specials. It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown Deluxe Edition has the gang in the spooky spirit, dressing up to go trick or treating and to crash Violet’s spooktacular Halloween party. While the crew goes out to collect their candy - Charlie Brown in a ghost costume (with more eyeholes cut out then needed), Lucy dressed as a witch and Snoopy in a World War I fighting ace costume, Linus decides to hold vigil in the pumpkin patch as he awaits the Great Pumpkin. Sally was excited for Halloween, but is convinced by Linus to stay put with him for the evening and keep a look out. Will the great pumpkin arrive or will this be another spoiled Halloween for Linus and the pals? This beloved tale even has a new jack-o-lantern glow in this remastered deluxe edition with improved picture and audio.

There
are classics, then there are classics. Be you a child or adult, almost
everyone is enamored by Charle's M. Schulz's animated cartoons -- The Peanuts.
One of the the best of these was a special for Halloween entitled It's The
Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. The story is about the belief of his
friend Linus in the coming of The Great Pumpkin, a character like Santa Claus
that comes every Halloween to the best pumpkin patch. Other subplots in
the story include Chuck (Charlie Brown) going trick-or-treating and the now
famous animated scene of Snoopy, the ace flier fighting the Red Baron atop his
flying doghouse. The story and animation is a classic if you still believe
in The Great Pumpkin or not.
