Winnie l'ourson : Bonne Année

Maybe I am biased, because I love Winnie the Pooh, loving AA Milne's charming, whimsical stories, a vast majority of the films and specials(especially The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh and of course the four shorts Honey Tree, Blustery Day, Tigger Too and Day for Eeyore) and the TV series The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.

Winnie the Pooh: A Very Merry Pooh Year is wonderful. It is beautifully animated with bright colours, pristine backgrounds and well-drawn colours with the best animation coming in the featured Christmas classic Winnie the Pooh and Christmas Too. The music is very memorable, with some Christmas favourites and lovely incidental music.

The writing also delights, with a perfect mix of funny, charming and moving moments and droll dialogue. I especially found the ending quite touching, and if you haven't seen Eeyore happy, wearing a Pooh shirt, on his hind legs and eating honey, then you haven't lived.

I equally loved the story, so sweet and charming and manages to maintain the childhood innocence that makes the stories, movies and series so endearing to me. The characters are forever timeless, Tigger has always been my favourite character but Pooh is so lovable, Piglet adorable and Rabbit(I love how he learns from his mistakes in general, and he is pretty much the only character in a sense that does) likable once you get to know him.

The voice acting is terrific. John Fiedler is still stellar as the timid Piglet, Michael Gough inspired and very funny as Gopher and Ken Samson very effective as Rabbit. Jim Cummings is very good as Pooh and even better as Tigger, though we mustn't dispute the brilliant Paul Winchell as his voice in the Christmas Too story featured.

Overall, really charming and wonderful, a must see for anyone who loves these characters and stories. 10/10 Bethany Cox

Winnie the Pooh: A Very Merry Pooh Year (2002) is a Christmas themed movie in the Hundred Acre Woods and it was a wonderful experience.

Positives for Winnie the Pooh: A Very Merry Pooh Year (2002): I love spending time with these fun characters and seeing them celebrating the holidays. The movie does a great job at giving you those Christmas feelings you want from a Christmas-themed movie. The humor is on point in the movie. The animation looks amazing. And finally, the movie keeps a good pace with the story.

Overall, Winnie the Pooh: A Very Merry Pooh Year (2002) is a fantastic Christmas-themed movie in the Hundred Acre Woods and I look forward to watch it during the Christmas season.

Winnie the Pooh is one of the greatest examples about friendship, even among such different beings, a sweet, delicate and fun drawing, the Christmas scenes, the choice of gifts for friends, the final music, everything is very emotional, even the voiceovers are so perfect that touch us, the cute voice of the piglet, the sweet voice of the Pooh, the whistled of the squirrel, the teasing of the tiger, sad of the eavesdropper and I knew about the rabbit, amooooo....

A Very Merry Pooh Year is exactly the same cartoon as Winnie the Pooh and Christmas Too, so if you're looking for a new adventure, this won't be it. I've watched this cartoon every single Christmas of my life, so I'm not complaining. The changes are a bit of restoration in the animation and a new voice for Christopher Robin: William Green. If you recognize the voice of the narrator, he's new, too - Michael York!

In case you don't usually watch Winnie and his friends at Christmas, you're missing out on one of the great Christmas feel-good flicks. It's funny, sweet, and always makes me cry. Christopher Robin writes a letter to Santa, asking for a gift for all his pals at the Hundred Acre Wood - all except Pooh. The next day, when Piglet remembers, they get together, write a new list, and hope it gets to the North Pole in time. There are so many quotable lines that have been adopted by my family, like "You have the pencil, Rabbit," and "If that's another one of those phony Santas, I'm gonna nail 'im." Friendship, love, and the Christmas spirit are all at the forefront of this delightful cartoon - no matter which Christopher Robin you're listening to.

DLM Warning: If you suffer from vertigo or dizzy spells, like my mom does, this movie might not be your friend. When Piglet's balloon deflates, the camera swirls around in a circle for a couple of seconds as they topple to the ground, and that will make you sick. In other words, "Don't Look, Mom!"

A collection of stories focused on Pooh and his friends around Christmas and New Year.

Although some of this is rehash from older Pooh stories, which results in some mixed animation and voices that do not quite match up perfectly (although close enough that few will notice), what better than a collection of Pooh stories for Christmas? Everyone loves Christmas and everyone loves Pooh, so it only makes sense to have a special focused on his exploits.

The singing over the opening credits is a bit dreadful, and it returns at the end, but the rest is pure magic that will make kids (and adults) smile. If you have never seen Eeyore cheery and smiling, you absolutely have to see this... it is quite a sight.
