You might have noticed already that I love Disney. Some Disney movies however, I do not like too much. (Ratatouille (2007), why is this a movie.) Winnie the Pooh held a special place in my heart growing up though, and seeing the initial poster release for Christopher Robin (2018) I was super excited. This movie is set to release August 3, 2018, and I will be seeing this in theaters. (Probably not release date because I'm slow, but eventually.) Now if you live under a rock, or maybe you missed seeing the trailer come out yesterday here it is: And there it is, the emotional wreck I have become after having watched this teaser trailer is astonishing. Christopher Robin (Ewan McGregor) is struggling with the balance of work and family. The joyful child many of us grew up with has now lost the playful spirit he once had, and his childhood friends try to help. Enter in Winnie the Pooh and crew.
I myself found the trailer incredibly beautiful, let's hope expectations are met when the final movie comes out. When Winnie the Pooh utters his first words "What to do indeed." I almost lost it. Jim Cummings returns to take on the voice of Pooh and it still gives me goosebumps. The childlike personality Pooh has always had comes through when Christopher Robin claims to have "cracked" and Pooh replies stating "...a few wrinkles maybe." while touching Christopher Robin's face. My heart melted. So my thoughts and opinions of this movie: Obviously this is placed years after the original Winnie the Pooh came out. The willy, nilly, silly old bear first appeared way back in the 1920s, so my thoughts are that this movie will be set in 1940s, especially based off clothing and props. (I haven't read anything anywhere confirming this.) I grew up with the cartoon Pooh and friends on Disney Channel, and one of my fondest memories is the scene where Pooh ate too much honey at Rabbit's house and gets stuck in the rabbit hole trying to leave, so relatable. Having had such a fun loving and inspiring bear in my life as a child and seeing Pooh now as an adult, being their to inspire childlike wonder to a fellow adult, is so exciting. There's not much right now, but you can bet that I will be hugging all my teddy bears a bit more because nothing beats a big old bear hug. Let me know what you're excited about the Christopher Robin movie. What do you hope to see in upcoming trailers for the movie? Are you excited for a live action Winnie the Pooh?
