Winnie the Pooh

My wife is taking my daughter on Saturday for her birthday. Her favorite character is Eeyore.

Glad to see Disney's not totally forgetting their roots...I myself am getting a bit tired of computer animation and 3-D special effects...

Pooh was always a favorite of mine as a young kid....

What is interesting is that Disney showcased this movie on the Indie Film Festival circuit prior to releasing it to the general public. Did very well at SIFF here in Seattle and already WDSHE is pushing the video release.

oops... see, even I was trying to make it edgy.

Shouldn't that be spelt "Pooh" with an "h"?

[Mikey]

That is so cool to hear

I always loved the 60's-70's Disney ones

I remember seeing one in the theatre in the early 70's

Not sure if it was new (at the time) or a re-release

My wife and I took our boys to see the new Winnie the Pooh movie on Saturday. We really enjoyed it. It's done in the same style as the ones from the late 60's and early 70's. They didn't make the mistake of "modernizing" things. It looks mostly 2-D animated. There's even a nice cartoon short at the beginning that has a real 1950's/60's Disney vibe to it.

If you've got young ones (or just enjoy good children's animation) I highly recommend it.
