Disney Project 2014: Winnie the Pooh

Movie: Winnie the Pooh

Release year: 2011

That’s right. They did another one of these movies, because we need more Winnie the Pooh than just the “Many Adventures of” from 1977.

No we don’t! This one doesn’t have the same voices, and so everyone sounds a little off. The storyline is fine – Eeyore loses his tail, so they have a contest to see who can find a replacement – but then you find out at the end that OWL had the tail the whole time and was using it as a pull for his doorbell! What even is that?? That’s brutal and disgusting! Owl also tried to divert the blame from himself early on, by inventing a terrible monster called the Backson that comes and messes with you. Jeez, Owl. What’s your problem?!

At least it’s only an hour long? Sorry if you like Winnie and the gang – they’ve just never been my favorites. And this Winnie revamp is just unnecessary…

Disney Project 2014: The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

Movie: The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

Release year: 1977

My thoughts: I guess it wasn’t until recently that I realized this was a full-length movie. I have seen the Little Black Raincloud section and the Pooh-gets-stuck-in-Rabbit’s-front-door sections many, many times. And I had the Heffalumps and Woozles song in a Halloween compilation VHS. But I don’t think I’ve seen the other stories before. Well, we did recently catch the end of the one where Rabbit tries to get Tigger to stop bouncing for good, on the Disney channel. (We often watch the Disney channel now. It’s fun.)

Winnie the Pooh is not my favorite. I mean, yeah, I definitely had t-shirts with the characters on them, but didn’t we all, in middle school?

Omg. Hold the phone. I JUST got the joke where Gopher keeps saying “I’m not in the book!” That went right over my head. Oy.
