this do give away some of the plot and by the way . a charlie brown christmas be one of those timeless classic that teach you the value christmas and just enjoy the holiday . this and however and do not . it try to capture the emotion of a charlie brown christmas and there even be another christmas play and but fail with lackluster and easy joke . charlie brown be no longer wonder about the spirit of christmas but be instead want to buy a present for peggy jean ( $ 25 glove . what . ) . his sister sally be the most annoying character in the movie . here be one of her joke represent sally want to write a letter to santa and but doesn not know how to spell charlie ( for some reason he need to be in her letter ) so instead decide to name him sam and because she know how to spell sam . also and sally play an angel in the play with one word to day represent hark . she instead say hockey stick ( har har ) . if sally say hark 12 time ( all oddly sound exactly the same ) doesn not kill you and nothing will . peppermint patty and marcy be a large focal point and but that hardly make it good . marcy be funny with her response to patty and but patty be another story . she sound like a boy ( which doesn not dispel the rumor ) and get mad when she have to be the sheep in the play ( terrible baa and all ) . apparently she be the sheep every year and and be worry she will forget her line ( line she doesn not have ) . she be so worried she mention it twice and one right after the other and and get the same response . i be assume she must have short term memory loss and or something . lucy and linus be more welcome ( although linus still have annoy advice ) and but hardly amount to much air time . i be sure schroeder isn not even in this one . all in all and it try to be a parasite to the original and but compromise the message for a few quick laugh .
