Winnie Puuh und Tigger dazu

This is the third short of Winnie the Pooh and his friends. In my opinion, it's the funniest of all and just as good as the earlier 2 shorts. This one isn't simply the funniest, it is also the bounciest. This is full of classic humor and great fun! Yes, our friend Tigger bounces a lot here. He's full of surprises and he bounces to his friends when they less expect. He bounces to Winnie the Pooh, Piglet and Rabbit. He surprises Pooh, scares Piglet, angers Rabbit and amuses little Roo and Kanga. However, he does a special "small bouncing" for Piglet because he is so tiny and he doesn't really bounce to Roo or Kanga, perhaps in respect for Kanga.

And oh, it's so delightful to hear Tigger amusingly saying «Hi hi! She called me dear!» - there's also some vanity in the way he says it. It's equally delightful to hear Tigger calling Pooh «the one who's stuffed with fluff» and «very comfy, too», as well as to hear him call "Long ears" to Rabbit.

Rabbit, of course, likes Tigger as much as the others, but he doesn't accept very well Tigger's bounces. In fact, he decides to have a meeting of protest with Pooh and Piglet because he has a plan to "unbounce" Tigger. The plan consists in taking Tigger to the forest and leave him alone in a far place, so that he gets lost and stops bouncing.

But the plan doesn't work the way they expect. Ironically, Rabbit, Pooh and Piglet are the ones who get lost and Tigger ends up finding them and bounces them, one by one. However, Rabbit is the one who feels humiliated after Tigger assures that «Tiggers never get lost» and keeps wondering «Why oh why oh why?». Tigger is just too smart to get lost.

Later, Tigger decides to take Roo with him to teach him all about bouncing. Tigger gets overexcited, bounces until the top of a tree and that's when something hilarious happens: Tigger is too afraid of heights, so much that he doesn't have courage to even try to get out of that sticky situation. He even promises not to bounce anymore (without really meaning it, of course). It's so hilarious to see our friend Tigger scared of heights.

These Winnie the Pooh's old shorts are real classics. Timeless and very charming. They also give us that "nostalgia" feeling about childhood and classic Disney. In Tigger's words, instead of a goodbye, I'll just say «Halloo!» :)

I don't think Tigger Too is quite as good as Honey Tree and Blustery Day, but I definitely recommend it. Sure there are no songs apart from the reprise of The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers, but the incidental music is absolutely beautiful.

The animation is spot on, and the story is still a nice idea. And it is entertaining, and what makes it entertaining is Tigger. What wonderful voice work from Paul Winchell.

The other voice actors also do very well with a good script, and Roo is really cute. There is one part that sticks out for me though- the part when Rabbit tells Tigger he can never bounce again, and Tigger goes off on his own, with his head down. That part never fails to bring tears to my eyes, and I still don't know why. Perhaps it was because I couldn't bear to see Tigger so sad.

Very sweet and memorable! 10/10 Bethany Cox

I have watched and reviewed a ton of Academy Award nominated animated shorts and this is a rare situation where I saw two films in this category in the same year that I think earned a 10--one of which was this wonderful film from Disney. The other, CLOSED MONDAYS, I loved because of its amazingly cranky main character and the uniqueness (at the time) of Claymation. Both are great and worth seeing, though I can't help but prefer WINNIE THE POOH AND TIGGER TOO!--it just had a timeless magical quality about it.

However, I can certainly understand the Oscar people not giving this Pooh film an Oscar--after all, in 1969, WINNIE THE POOH AND THE BLUSTERY DAY earned the award in this category, so it wasn't like this Tigger film was super-unique--which CLOSED MONDAYS certainly was.

As for this film, it is available now in a DVD with several other early Pooh shorts and is a must-have for fans of Pooh. It is simply perfect--charming and expertly crafted--with some of the best Disney animation you'll ever see.

I have seen this movie about 10 times and every time I watch it I love it!This movie is not very long,but that does not mean it's a bad film. This movie has it all,it's funny,sad,happy,and it's a mini adventure!the first time I saw this movie I thought it would be boring because it was made in 1974,but when I watched it I thought is was one of the best short movies I had ever seen.Then I began to watch even older Winnie The Pooh movies and I loved them all,but this short Winnie The Pooh movie is my favourite one!I disagree with other people's revues on this short movie. It is great.In conclusion I think this movie has everything and that is what makes it so great.So if you ever get a chance to see this movie it's a great one so give it a try!

This was the third 'act' of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, which is how I first saw this as a very young child (probably a baby, now that I think about it). Though the whole feature was kind of ingrained into my system at an early age, I think this final section always left an impression on me. It was because of Tigger being this main subject here - in later years he'd get his own movie, The Tigger Movie as it was pretty obviously called - though really moreso about how he was perceived, that made it so funny and captivating and even a couple of times scary and almost-borderline sad.

The two things that happen in Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too involve Rabbit in a big way, and it's little wonder from a storytelling perspective; they're diametrically opposed, with Tigger and his, to put it lightly, carefree attitude, and Rabbit being, to also put it mildly, fastidious. He likes his garden and Tiggers bouncy ways mess it up. Can the bounce go away for a while? A personality adjustment could do it, so he, Pooh and Piglet go out into the woods with the plan to abandon him (just for the night, as Rabbit proposes to a hilariously sleepy Pooh by the way), but it backfires as Rabbit is the one who gets stuck (not unlike, say, Snow White in her feature).

The other thing is that Tigger does get some emotional shock when he is stuck up high on a tree - he even talks to the Narrator Sebastian Cabot, which I found both young and today absolutely hysterical - and maybe does, just for a moment question or lose his bounce (by, you know, 'request' of a sort). This second part may not be completely as masterful as the first segment, but the two compliment each other and work together as two stories in one whole: what does it mean for other people around Tigger? Or just Rabbit, for that matter? If all you do is bounce around and have fun, is it fun for everyone else around you, or will some people not 'get' it, or completely match up to that fun (ala Roo, if memory serves).

Ultimately, as it's shown, being 'bouncy' is a good thing, certainly if one is a Tigger. But what I've always liked about these stories here is that it's actually not Pooh challenging the springy fella, it's the character who we probably shouldn't stand really, the 'grown up' curmudgeon guy. Maybe some day kids will have to stop bouncing, but for now, it's alright, and certainly for comedy sake, that is.
