Le grand méchant loup

Grew up with this story as a kid from the reading and being told the storybook as it's one of my favorites even though it's not as good as "The Three Little Pigs" still it entertains and is fun as it's a tale of caution as it means to be safe don't fall prey to strangers or their tricks! Moved along well by animation(very colorful for 1934) and the singing is a silly thing still it involves "The Three Little Pigs" who meet young "Little Red Riding Hood" in the woods and she's off to grandmother's house only after being advised from the serious smart bricklayer pig not to take the shortcut thru the woods she does anyway! Now you guessed it the "Big Bad Wolf" is hot on her trail as he even makes it inside granny's house and appears to be her! Never fear three pigs to the rescue! Overall well done classic tale that's long in memory as it stuck with me for it's message and sentimental feel.

This is a sequel to the Silly Symphony short, The Three Little Pigs, bringing back the three animals and the notorious Big Bad Wolf for some more forest fun and thrills. This time, the wolf is out to get Little Red Riding Hood, who is out visiting her Granny. Therefore, the Three Little Pigs try to intervene to save the day.

Great merger of the two stories into one cartoon and great music that is nostalgic of the first Three Little Pigs cartoon, especially a nice reprise of "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf," sung to some very serene violin sounds.

Lots of laughs and fun. Great, entertaining one for the family.

Grade A

Sequel to Disney's Academy Award-winning Three Little Pigs short. The story this time brings Little Red Riding Hood into the mix as two of the three pigs escort her to her grandma's house. They ignore the third pig's warnings about avoiding the woods and run into you-know-who along the way. Of course, things get crazy. The animation is vibrant with gorgeous colors and nicely-drawn characters and backgrounds. The voice work is great. The music is cheerful and upbeat. The famous song from the first cartoon, "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?," is also included in this one. It's a good cartoon but not as much fun as the Three Little Pigs. The wolf in drag as Goldilocks the Fairy Queen is certainly a sight to see.

This is a Disney retelling of the Little Red Riding Hood story. It is a sequel to the famous Three Little Pigs short they made a year earlier (Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?). In it, Little Red Riding Hood is trying to get to her grandmother's house, and the two irresponsible little pigs offer to walk her through the woods, although their older brother, the practical pig, warns them to go the long route to avoid the wolf. The Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf would appear in two more sequels, The Three Little Wolves and The Practical Pig, which are quite better than this one. 7/10.

The next short film on Disney Plus is "The Big Bad Wolf" one of the Silly Symphonies from 1934, whilst it's not exactly a laugh riot, it's charming enough to win me over.

Little Red Riding Hood (Sara Berner) is heading to see her grandmother. She's joined on an ill-advised short cut through the woods, by two of the three little pigs. They encounter The Big Bad Wolf (Billy Bletcher) but manage to escape. The Wold beats them to Grandma's house and, having trapped her in a closet, gets in bed disguised as her. The two pigs get back to their third brother, who decides that it falls to him to save Hood.

I understand, from the other reviews, that this is supposed to be a follow up to "The Three Little Pigs" which, given that I'm going through these in alphabetical order, I haven't come to yet. I don't think the context was lost on me though, as it's essentially just an animated version of the classic fairy tale.

Given that It's coming up on being a century old it's obviously understandable that it's pretty basic, both in terms of animation loops and backgrounds. That in and of itself is a pretty charming and it hard not to watch the short with a warm smile on your face. Admittedly, it's not funny, barely converting that smile to a giggle until the final moments of slapstick violence.

Hard not to appreciate, if maybe not quite adore.
