Everything from the 25th Anniversary Edition will be ported over. So yes, the trivia track will be on the Friendship Edition.pppapazo wrote:It looks like they're cutting the pop-up trivia track. Can anyone confirm that it will (or won't) be part of this release? I'd much rather have that than the "bonus" episode.
I saw a commercial for that new WtP series, and it looks kinda iffy, but that's probably because I would never watch it in the first place.

I saw the shorts a while back and while I thought they were cute they are a bit too simple to be considered masterpieces.
If it wasn't for Tigger and Eeyore, the whole thing would be a bore for me.
Again, its cute and solid. Its just surprises me that the series got this much recognition to the point where its a worldwide franchise.
BTW, I DO like the different character archetypes seen throughout the franchise. To the point where I made a character chart comparing real life characteristics to the Winnie the Pooh characters.
Here's what I mean:
Pooh: Represents the lazy, sloth yet very lovable and caring person
Piglet: Represents the extremely shy and insecure person
Tigger: Represents the fun loving and hyperactive person
Eeyore: Represents the constantly depressed, emo person
Owl: Represents the arrogant and pompous yet very intelligent person
Rabbit: Represents the stiff, obsessive compulsive person
Maybe that's the reason the characters are so popular. People can easily identify with them because their character traits are so apparent.

Oh? I think Disney's WTP is a true classic. I love the naive, yet witty and clever humor of it. The song lyrics always make me laugh. For mind over matter has made the Pooh unfatter.

The Press Release says it's going to be in 1.33:1 fullscreen, and as far as I know, the Press Release is more reliable than you.danfrandes wrote:Why?

For five bucks hell yeah! Plus, you'll retain the Pop-Up Trivia Track, which isn't carried over to the Friendship Edition (unless you'd rather have an episode of "My Friends Tigger & Pooh").Widdi wrote:So I've got a chace to buy the 25th anniversary edition for 5 bucks, disc, cover art and inserts are all in great shape. Should I pick it up, or wait for the Friendship Edition?

YES!!! IM SO EXCITED!! Winnie the Pooh: Friendship Edition is almost here!! I'm almost as excited as when TLM and Peter Pan were coming out on DVD! I haven't seen Winnie the Pooh in a long time, so it will be fun to re-watch it. It's also exciting because June 19th is the last day of school for me
