I was a bit dissapointed that the movie did’nt have Gopher.
I know he’s not a huge part of the cast, but he was still there in some of the stories…
I just got back from seeing it. Anyone who likes the original Pooh vignettes will love it! I kept grinning. Visually beautiful. I loved it whenever Zooey Deschanel sang, she has such a down-to-earth tone that matches Winnie the Pooh perfectly.
It’s not trying hard to be a grand, hugely satisfying movie, just a simple, sweet film you’ll enjoy, and the same could be said of The Ballad of Nessie before it.
8.5/10 Hunny Pots 
Ohhh, I defintely forgot all about him! Oh well. Fun fact though, he’s the only character to be invented by Disney, he wasn’t in A.A. Milne’s original stories.
In my review, I neglected to mention that I really enjoyed The Ballad of Nessie. Like A LOT. I’m glad they had a short in front of the film, seeing as it’s very short film as it is.
I did’nt know that about Gopher.
To be honest, when I was young I thought Disney made them all up!
I agree. The Ballad of Nessie took me back to when Disney was in its prime with hand drawn. The story was great asto how Loch Ness was made and Nessie herself has got to be one of the cutest things I have ever seen!
I wish I could see this movie. But my mom thinks it’s a bit too much money for a one-hour “cartoon”, as she calls it. Plus, all the theaters here have already pulled it in favor of more screens for HP7 Part 2. Which, isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
I loved HP7 (more than Winnie the Pooh), but I’m sad to hear that they aren’t even letting a single screen for Winnie!
Actually, only one theater has pulled Pooh off the screens. But it’s the one that I went to go see Cars 2 at and will see HP7 Part 2 at.
It is a very bad thing.
There are plenty of live action films that are sticking in theaters despite HP. And are doing well despite HP. And are cruddy movies.
Every time you take your kids to see Zookeeper instead of WTP or Cars 2, Hollywood kicks a puppy.
That stinks, pixarfan. 
Living in a small town with a theater that has only 1 screen, I know how you feel.
Every time you take your kids to see Zookeeper instead of WTP or Cars 2, Hollywood kicks a puppy.
That’s funny Netbug, cuz I went to a drive in the other night that showed Cars 2 first then Zookeeper.
The running time is a little dissapointing, I wont lie…
But it’s a fun little experience. Cant you go see it when it’s cheaper?
According to Wikipedia, there were a TON of Winnie-the-Pooh characters created by Disney:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wi … _in_Disney
It is interesting to note that Gopher was originaally intended to replace Piglet, though.
lolz, I saw all three of those movies!
Lover_of_Fiction- I never take any sentece with ‘According to Wikipedia’ seriously. Also, those characters are all from spinoffs and Disney toon. I was referring to the actual WDW animation studio films.
I can’t wait to see the short The Ballad of Nessie. I have heard nothing but good things about it.
guh, now I feel bad that I was going to mention that I thought Ballad of Nessie wasn’t all that great. Cute, but not extremely memorable to me. %D;;;;;
Of the made-up Pooh characters, only Gopher appears in any Disney animated canon films.
I remember when I first read the books last year and then rewatched the movie, I was so proud that I caught the whole thing with Gopher saying “I’m not in the books!” I felt very educated
Wikipedia is the most accurate source of informaation on the net, unless you need information from aa specific fandom, in which the wikia for that particular wikia site will serve you better.
If anyone says something untrue on Wikipedia, it will be edited out fairly soon afterwards. The only exception is with books, but in the their case most books are lucky to get a STUB on Wikipedia. i would create articles for books myself, but I’m afraid that they’ll delete them.
That’s fine, we all have different opinions! No harm in that.
I loved The Ballad of Nessie a lot, especially for the visuals (which were absolutely perfect in design). But I did feel like it was a bit shallow. Not that much of an issue, though.
I’ve never understood why people think that if you read something on Wikipedia, you have to be skeptical about it. These days, people go on the internet and get information about things all the time. So I don’t understand why people are so skeptical about Wikipedia when the things you read on the site have links to the websites where the information comes from. What makes reading about Walt Disney creating characters for Winnie the Pooh on Wikipedia any different than typing, “characters Walt Disney created for Winnie the Pooh” in Google’s search engine? There’s a good chance that your gonna end up looking at websites that Wikipedia used to get the info about it anyway.
