It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Happy Halloween Everybody Today I'm Reviewing the 1966 Halloween Special It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. So in this Special Linus is excited for the great pumpkin but everybody thinks he is crazy except Sally who is willing to stay to see the Great Pumpkin with Linus . The others go trick or Treating with everybody getting candy except Charlie Brown who gets rocks. I loved when Lucy was bobbing for apples and Snoopy came out kissed Lucy causing Lucy going around in circles saying she has been kissed my a dog. I Also Loved the part where Snoopy is getting The Red Baron. Anyway I Loved It's Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown It's Halloween Classic. 10/10

Halloween has been my fourth favorite time of year, I love it because it just has this mischievous and fun charm to it. Not just collecting candy but to me two of my favorite things about it were in wearing costumes pretending for one night to be someone or something else. As well as the amount of scary stories I hear which are always the most colorful and never in short supply.Warning do not read unless you've seen film.This is my fourth favorite Charlie Brown special and yeah another childhood gem of mine, I watched this when I was about six and as an adult I still watch it now and still enjoy it.The story to this one is really odd indeed but fits in with the holiday. It's mainly centered around Linus whom was my forth favorite character in the series. Despite being highly intelligent he wasn't entirely on the level, from his obsession with his blanket which he is clearly too old for. In a way this is actually true about most great minds in history despite their accomplishments and intelligence, some of them had essentricty or were even insane. Here we see even more of Linus's mental state as he is praising The Great Pumpkin whom is a legendary figure that only exists in Linus's mind. It also seems like he might of got his holidays mixed up because he describes the Great Pumpkin as Santa Claws.What I like about this film is that it sort of makes you draw your own conclusions about Linus. On one hand Linus has finally blown a circuit and probably should consider therapy.But on the other hand we're a bit on his side because the guy is really onto something mainly about the concept of belief, hope and dreams. Despite the end results Linus truly stands by his beliefs. As Captain Sisko from "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" once said, "You can take the story away but you can't murder an idea, it exists in my mind it's ancient knowledge, it's real." To me that is part of what belief and ideas are, sure they may not be a reality right now but those things exist within us and continue to as long as we keep believing in it. They are also what keep us going in life, despite the idea whether good, bad, or even just flawed it doesn't matter as long as you have something to believe in, it gives us a reason to live as if may'be there really is a purpose were here.And of course the rest of the special is a lot of random fun, it's almost like watching a sketch comedy. From seeing Charlie Brown getting a lot of rocks instead of candy which is both funny and kinda sad (what's everyones problem with Charlie Brown anyway, would it kill them to give him one piece of candy?) however despite this Charlie never lets that get him down, which is something I always admired about the character you can't break his spirit. Some of what happens at the Halloween party mainly that bobbing for apples sequence with both Lucy and Snoopy, where as usual Snoopy exercises his crush for her and Lucy acts with disdain, that just never gets old.But my favorite is of course Snoopy's dog fight (no pun intended) against the Red Baron. It's just so much fun and funny because there is truth to this as we don't see Snoopy use a plane but his own dog house, and I really like the color and sound effects. Even that trek though enemy territory sequence. It's like with all of us when we played pretend as kids whether we imagined ourselves as G.I. Joes fighting against Cobras or whatever else. Or let alone sometimes the daydreaming we do everyday when were walking someplace we sometimes imagine were somewhere else or doing something else.Linus awaits the Great Pumpkin, just as we continue our beliefs in our own hopes and dreams.So Happy Halloween.Rating: 4 stars

"It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" is a timeless animated family animated classic. This cute cartoon short is sure to please the kids (and a few adults) on Halloween.After recently re-watching this film short, I can't decide who I felt more sorry for Charlie Brown, who kept getting rocks instead of candy for Halloween treats, or Linus, who still did not see the Great Pumpkin rising out of the pumpkin patch... lol.If you or your kids have not seen this timeless Peanuts classic then you should give this short film a watch this Halloween season - it's sure to give you a few giggles.10/10

The gang go trick or treating. As Sally, Charlie's younger sister wants to stay by her sweet baboo Linus, who wants to see the Great Pumpkin Patch or the Santa Claus of the Halloween.Charlie gets invited to a party thrown by Violet. A first for him despite the fact that he never, hardly ever gets invited. But despite going Trick or Treating, and at the party, all he gets is rocks for candy.Snoopy in his own imagination acts like he is on assignment as a soldier and using his doghouse for a plane. We all wished that we had a neat imagination like Snoopy.Still we all know what happens at the end. Won't spoil it for those that have not watched. But it is very sweet and Charlie and Company never have grown old or grown up for that matter as kids turned into adults.
