General "Did you Know?"s

[MidwayCJ]

A live-action movie based off of Peanuts was considered, but nothing came out of it. John Hughes(of Breakfast Club fame) had written a script for a live-action film based off Charles Schultz's comic strip. It is not known why the film did not get made. It can be assumed that it didn't get made to hurt the image and reputation of the comic strip. However. Despite not getting off of the ground during development, Charles Schultz did enjoy the script that John Hughes had written for a film based off of Charles Schultz's characters.

That sounds like a really bad idea. Almost like a live-action Calvin and Hobbes movie. All I can think about is the Dennis the Menace movie (Dennis to my UK friends) and how bad THAT was.

...But Dennis the Menace was a live action show...
