Sneak peek: 'Peanuts' [movie] spiced with classic Schulz themes

When The Peanuts Movie arrives in theaters next year, producer Paul Feig promises that Charlie Brown won't twerk, wear a baseball cap backwards or try to "break the Internet" a la Kim Kardashian.

"I don't think his butt's big enough," Feig says with a laugh.

In fact, there won't be a focus on the old-fashioned or the modern when the late Charles M. Schulz's characters including Snoopy, Woodstock, Linus and Peppermint Patty come to life in the 3-D computer-animated film (out Nov. 6, 2015). Instead, director Steve Martino (Ice Age: Continental Drift) and the filmmakers focus on the timeless quality of 50-plus years of beloved comic strips and TV specials.

Knott's News: If Knott's is smart, they'll have some kind of tie-in with this movie. Maybe a new dark ride in time for the home release during the first half of 2016. Synergy!
