PEANUTS 3D (2015) ... Charlie Brown, Snoopy and Friends are Coming To The Big Screen!!!

Tuesday, March 18, 2014


 

Those lovable and cute Peanuts characters are finally making their move to the big screen. The last Peanuts movie released on the big screen was more than 30 years ago! So it seems that 2015 will have a brand new CGI version of all our favourite characters with a brand new original story. The movie is being put together by Fox and Ice Age's Blue Light Studios while the plot itself is held under wraps and complete secrecy.

 
A BRIEF WIKI HISTORY OF PEANUTS
Peanuts is a syndicated daily and Sunday American comic strip written and illustrated by Charles M. Schulz, which ran from October 2, 1950, to February 13, 2000, continuing in reruns afterward. The strip is the most popular and influential in the history of the comic strip, with 17,897 strips published in all, making it "arguably the longest story ever told by one human being". At its peak, Peanuts ran in over 2,600 newspapers, with a readership of 355 million in 75 countries, and was translated into 21 languages. It helped to cement the four-panel gag strip as the standard in the United States, and together with its merchandise earned Schulz more than $1 billion. Reprints of the strip are still syndicated and run in almost every U.S. newspaper.
Peanuts achieved considerable success with its television specials, several of which, including A Charlie Brown Christmas and It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, won or were nominated for Emmy Awards. The holiday specials remain popular and are currently broadcast on ABC in the United States during the corresponding seasons. The Peanuts franchise met acclaim in theatre, with the stage musical You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown being a successful and often-performed production.
Peanuts has been described as "the most shining example of the American success story in the comic strip field"; this is ironic, given its theme is "the great American unsuccess story." The main character, Charlie Brown, is meek, nervous, and lacks self-confidence. He is unable to fly a kite, win a baseball game, or kick a football.
In 2013, TV Guide ranked Peanuts the fourth Greatest TV Cartoon of All Time.
