Rating:  - Another Childhood Favorite!!!
Ever since I was a little kid, I've loved this movie! I watched it recently, and I still like it! I love all the characters and how Winnie is always using unorthodox methods of getting honey. I love how they work together. I love how Eeyore is so depressed, and Piglet is so cute! Roo's mom, Kanga is smokin' hot! (Just kidding) I remember in 1st grade, we watched this, and we put on a stick-play, and one of my characters was Tigger. If you love Winnie the Pooh, you'll love THE MANY ADVENTURES OF WINNIE THE POOH!!!

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?

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!

Rating: - My Three-Year Old's favorite
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!
