Customer Reviews of It's the Pied Piper, Charlie Brown
More Like the Pied Accordianist, Charlie Brown This is a pretty cute story, but I'd have to agree with some of the previous reviewers that it could've been done much better.
Snoopy is the star of this story (playing an accordian instead of a flute), while most of the Peanuts gang (save Charlie and Sally Brown) are reduced to mere cameos. The music is done by David Benoit, who proves to have talent and included some of Vince Guaraldi's original standards in the soundtrack (though I still miss Guaraldi). I'll have to agree that the adults look nothing like Charles Schulz's style. At least in the This Is America Charlie Brown series, the adult characters looked like something Schulz would have drawn. They fit into the story well and didn't dominate the way the townspeople did here in Pied Piper (not to mention those mice, who are in more scenes than Snoopy).
And what's with the 8 minutes worth of advertisements at the beginning of the video?! This is, after all, only a half hour presentation.
The best thing about this video is the interview with the late Charles Schulz (which is why I gave this video 3 stars). It serves as a memory as to why we love Peanuts.
If you're a collector, you'll probably want this in your collection. If you're not a collector, save your money.
Adults have been in MANY Peanuts videos
Actually, to those people on here that insist that adults have never been in any Peanuts videos before, you're wrong. Adults (both animated adults AND live-action adults) have been in MANY Peanuts videos (I can think of 8 off the top of my head). Additionally, if you check the credits on any of the videos, you'll note that Schulz did not draw the characters for animation, he was a cartoonist, not an animator. Personally, I love It's The Pied Piper, Charlie Brown. It's a great old tale with a new Snoopy twist.
THE ADULTS ARE SEEN AND HEARD, MAN!
Awful! Stick to the older original cartoons. This is just terrible.
