DVD Reviews of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (The Friendship Edition)
DVD Review: The TWO adventures of Winnie the Pooh
Summary: 4 Stars
Disney really could have crammed ALL the Winnie the Pooh theatrical shorts onto this disc. As it is, we're given three strung together as one (Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree, Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day and Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too!) with some new footage (in much the same way as Daffy Duck's Quackbusters). Because of this, there is no consistent story from beginning to end other than the usual hapless, hijinks of the animals from Hundred Acre Wood. I really would have preferred the complete original cartoons, but that's why I don't work for Disney.
They certainly don't make cartoons like this anymore though (too busy with soulless rubbish like Meet the Robinsons [Blu-ray]). TMAOWTP was certainly one of their last greats of old-school animation. The seasonal colors of Hundred Acre Wood and the backgrounds are rather enchanting and atmospheric. I actually had a huge poster from Winnie Pooh and the Blustery Day on my bedroom wall when I was a kid and I could literally look at it for hours as there was so much detail to it.
I'm not too keen on Christopher Robin though, he's just a bit too effeminate for me. I hear that Disney are planning on replacing him with a tomboyish girl for future Winnie the Pooh projects. Well, I'm fine with that. The Disney-fied Pooh deviates so far from AA Milne's creation that one more alteration is hardly significant.
The only other short is A Day For Eeyore. It's Eeyore's birthday, but none of his so-called friends have bothered to notice. Pooh has made a new game involving chucking sticks into the river to see which one wins in a race. He calls it 'Pooh Sticks'. Now, where I come from that particular noun means something completely different.
When Eeyore comes floating along they realize that he is more depressed than usual. When he reveals why the day is supposed to be so special they all run off to find makeshift presents and prepare a party. It actually works, and he cheers up.
A fine Winnie the Pooh short, with the great animation and wonderful backgrounds we've come to expect. It also keeps Christopher Robin to a minimum.
And why don't they ever call him Winnie?
DVD Review: One of Disney's Best Classics
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a long time fan and I love winnie the pooh. To me all the characters are great. I love all of them. I loved the series The New Adventures of Winnie The Pooh and I wish it would come out in DVD seasons.
This is a great movie. Its for the whole family, both children and adults. The stories are very funny and extremely entertaining. I highly suggest getting this great movie on DVD. Its worth every singel penny!
Buy this great DVD and enjoy it over and over again!

Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is seriously my daughter's favorite. It is gentle and fun and is the perfect movie for a child who is sensitive and easily scared (my daughter is scared of the bee in the commercial for allergy drugs). Excellent!DVD Review: The Great, Incomparable Winnie the Pooh
Summary: 5 Stars
I grew up watching the original Disney cartoons, and this DVD brings back wonderful, vivid memories. Based on the classic book by A. A. Milne, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh delightfully brings to life Christopher Robin, The Hundred Acre Wood, Winnie the Pooh, and all of his friends. Included are the all the timeless favorites: Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree (1966), the Oscar-winning Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day (1968), and Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, Too (1974). Wow, was it really as late as 1974 that we met Tigger for the first time? I feel like I have know him since I was born!
This masterpiece contains some of the most incredible, memorable, and recognizable voice talent of all time, including Sterling Holloway as Pooh, Paul Winchell as Tigger, and John Fiedler as Piglet. Sebastian Cabot narrates, speaking directly to the characters and to us, and tying all the stories together. Pooh and his friends clearly loved Sebastian Cabot just as much as we did.
The songs are most firmly fixed in my mind - "Hefalumps and Woozles", "The Wonderful Thing about Tiggers", "I'm Just a Little Back Rain Cloud", and of course "Winnie the Pooh" to name just a few. We hum and sing and dance to each one. The memories are strong here; all the words come pouring back.
For the 25th anniversary addition, the animation has been lovingly and vividly restored to its original glory. This DVD is as stunning as I remember the originals to be. As the pages of the book turn, Pooh seems to leap off the page, and into your heart.
My young one loves this as much as I do. She requests this DVD frequently, and I am more than thrilled to be able to share it with her. Thank you, Walt, for giving me these beautiful memories to pass on to my daughter.
Description of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (The Friendship Edition)
Follows three adventures of Winnie the Pooh and his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood.Genre: Children's Video
Rating: G
Release Date: 19-JUN-2007
Media Type: DVD
Disney's 1977 The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh may be the last word on (animated) Pooh because it so faithfully honors the first word on Pooh, penned in the 1920s by British storyteller A.A. Milne. Gently paced, subtly humorous, and blessedly understated, this adaptation reflects Walt Disney's original vision to develop the beloved British bear for a wider audience. The film is essentially a collection of the original Pooh shorts, "The Honey Tree," "The Blustery Day," and "Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too." These storybooks are presented in seamless "chapters," narrated by the timeless Sebastian Cabot. The familiar musical score and original voices of Sterling Holloway as Pooh, and Paul Winchell as Tigger, cap this enchanting keepsake. (Ages 2 and up). --Lynn Gibson
