There must be something Snoopy in the air

After covering that the film Tower Heist (which I have not seen) features Snoopy via his Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon, I was surprised that the other film which opened wide this weekend – A Very Harold and Kumar 3D Christmas – had a briefer Snoopy mention, as a character asked Santa for a Snoopy Sno-Cone Machine. An odd little coincidence.

(And for those who are wondering – if you know who “Harold and Kumar” are and think you might like something called A Very Harold and Kumar 3D Christmas, then you probably will… and no, you don’t have to be stoned or a stoner to enjoy it, as I was/am neither. Much better than the second in the series.)
