Winnie the Pooh (2011)

[DisneyPictures]

The film has already been released in the UK, a few early reviewers in US have said good things.

Here's a review from the LA Film Festival:

My brother made a facebook group to help get the word out about this film(two days before the film came out!). and it even got onto cartoonbrew. Also. I saw the film today. it was fantasic.

Craig Ferguson did a quasi-Winnie the Pooh themed episode of The Late Late Show last night. In addition to him talking about the movie, in which he voices Owl, he also interviews Zooey Deschanel, who sings three songs in the film, and Jim Cummings, the voice of Winnie and Tigger.

Be warned that the clips contain a lot of censored profanity and a good deal of sexual innuendos as the show is rated TV-14. Also, clips of the movie have been cut down for copyright reasons.

I am a huge Winnie the Pooh fan and think this will be brilliant. The initial reviews looks extremely positive. I don't want to read any of them as they might spoil some plot details for me.

Thanks for the Henry Jackman interview. I'm usually not too interested in composers from the Media Ventures/Remote Control stable, but I admit that Jackman has joined Mark Mancina, Harry Gregson-Williams, and John Powell as one of those whose music interests me more than Zimmer's. Winnie the Pooh's score is delightful, and I was also impressed with his music for Gulliver's Travels and Kick-Ass. Monsters vs. Aliens has grown on me as well. Jackman really seems to know the classical repertoire, which is refreshing. Although I think the score for X-Men: First Class is fine, I would have loved to hear the more complex music that he initially came up with.
