Exploring Peanuts

While it lacks the thematic substance of A Charlie Brown Christmas, It's Christmastime Again is still a watchable and enjoyable Peanuts special. Those who grew up reading the Peanuts comic strip will especially get enjoyment out of this as this entire special is comprised of gags and jokes taken out of those strips. Doesn't 100% qualify as definitive Christmas TV (in fact, its ending is surprisingly weak), but you get some solid laughs with your favorite Peanuts characters, and for that, I can't fault it too much.

65/100

YouTube video coming soon...

An animated animal movie, made by the crudest animation studio ever, with no dialogue coming from our main horse characters except some cheesy narration from Matt Damon, a 100% serious plot with very little slapstick gags, alongside some top-quality and jaw-dropping mixtures of 2D animated characters and CG-animated landscapes, some high emotional trauma with sequences that rival How to Train Your Dragon, and the bizarre collaboration of music provided by Hans Zimmer and Bryan Adams of all people.

One of DreamWorks' most spectacular and highly underrated films to date.
