Winnie Puuh - Honigsüße Weihnachtszeit

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!"
