Peanuts Movie, A Reply and My Snoopy Watch

  As promised here's an update! I have seen the Peanuts movie just last week. I bought my own dvd copy, since my workmates have deleted a copy of this movie from their files. Anyway, its good that I have my own copy since, I'm a Peanuts fan! I rarely watch movies on cinemas now because they are a bit expensive, and you get to watch them only once. If you have your own copy, you can watch it comfortably in your own space.

This movie was released on 2015. It is not the same as with the Peanuts animation shown before on tv. This one is a 3d version. This is a new story, and while this is a new story, it remains faithful to the strips of its creator the late Charles M. Schulz. His son Craig and Bryan, his grandson co-wrote the story for this movie. What I like about the movie is that they remain faithful to the old animation. The elders and the teacher in the movie, never spoke a word but only that famous sound, like a garbled, blowing of a light-horn. The voice actors was also done superbly! Kudos to the talented child voice actors chosen for this film. The dvd, comes with additional bonuses, it also included Meghan Trainor's music video and behind the scenes, for the OST 'When I'm Dancing'. In the music video Meghan's family was also included. Just like this Peanuts animation, a family affair! Bonus clips from the movie is also included in the dvd, as well as my favorite part. How to draw a few Peanuts characters!

Last Thursday, after searching for any Schulz family on the social media. I just wanted to tell them about me as a fan of their father and his works. I have found the social media of the eldest son, Sir Monte Schulz. I know that he's a writer. From one of the member's of our fb group page (a Charles Schulz,and  Peanuts fan page), I was told that he was one of America's best pilots. The Red Baron and Snoopy thing, his father got that idea from him. I wrote a message telling him that I'm one of the billion of Peanuts fans, and I posted a photo of few of my related Peanuts memorabilia. Like my Vans Peanuts sneakers, comic books, apparels, and dvd. I received a reply yesterday morning, a short thank you. Well, that reply was enough for me. To be able to communicate with any of Schulz's son is an honor. Thanks to the wonders of  the internet.

Yesterday, I also received my Snoopy watch. It was shipped from overseas. It is a China made watch. Everything is China made these days, since labor is cheaper there. Anyway, the distributor of that watch is from a company in China. They have a website, just click on this: Floraltime. The watch came in sort of metal box with a Snoopy design, and a Chinese character. There is also an imprint of Peanuts Worldwide. It comes with a price tag it is 208 RMB, equivalent to a thousand bucks here. There is also a seal of authenticity, and a brochure but its written in Chinese. The watch dial is not that large, and the strap is thin, leatherlike, with a Charlie Brown and Snoopy comic strips dialogue design. I posted it in our fb group, and a member 'liked' the photo it asking me where did I buy it.

It has been a great week. Whenever I feel blue, Peanuts is one of the things that lifts me up. I like my Peanuts toy figures, I often look at them. They are so cute! Like a line from a song says, "Happiness is anyone, and anything at all. That's loved by you!"... - (You're A Good Man Charlie Brown)
