1* AntiClimaxBoss: The Baron is built up as a formidable danger and he even speaks of how he is going to personally deal with the kids if Violette doesn't get them to leave the Chateau. He never gets the chance, as a fire breaking out at the Chateau reduces him to impotent panicking, and Charlie Brown and his friends helping put out the fire and saving Violette prompts a HeelFaceTurn from him.
2* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic:
3** The music that plays during the fire.
4** Special mention goes to the orchestral soundtrack that is heard throughout the film. Quite different from the usual jazz piano style of ''Peanuts''. Some of the sweeping orchestral themes were reminiscent of Hiroshi Miyagawa, which actually helped to give this film a more dramatic, even DarkerAndEdgier tone than is usually seen in ''Peanuts''.
5* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Snoopy playing tennis in Wimbledon. [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments Doesn't make it any less hilarious.]]
6* {{Narm}}:
7** Linus saying, "Use my blanket to catch us!"
8** The way Charlie Brown runs several miles constantly yelling "fire" without explaining anything.
9** The stock screams when Charlie Brown, Snoopy and Linus are nearly struck by lightning.
10* NightmareFuel: The Chateau fire scene can be quite frightening, especially to younger viewers.
11* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: The music that plays when Snoopy is sneaking across the Chateau during his, Charlie Brown's, and Linus' first night there sounds eerily like the ''Film/JamesBond'' theme.
12* TearJerker: Snoopy is at a bar in France, and puts a few coins into the jukebox. He sits down and starts swaying to the music, while Woodstock plays a violin. When the music gets sadder, he starts crying, similar to the gag in the Halloween special. It even reuses the sound of Snoopy crying from that special. In this instance, however, the song ends on a happy note.
13* UnintentionalPeriodPiece:
14** One gag has Woodstock getting stuck in the ashtray of Snoopy's seat on the plane and coming out all sooty. Yes, kids, smoking on planes was once OK, and those apparently useless metal lids on the armrests had a purpose.
15** The gang crosses the English Channel on a hovercraft. This hovercraft service was discontinued in the year 2000. Nowadays, they would probably use the Channel Tunnel, which didn't open until 1994.
16** Ed Bogas and Judy Munsen's music score could come across as this, with a very late 70s-early 80s sound at times.
17* ValuesDissonance:
18** Snoopy's hand gestures at the other drivers when the car gets rear-ended. Many of the gestures he performs that would be ''extremely'' rude in Europe (like Snoopy running his hand under his chin, equivalent to FlippingTheBird) just look weird to an American.
19** The waiter in the English pub recommends different dishes for the boys and the girls. Nowadways, it's generally believed that girls can eat beef without fainting.
