I have posted this in another forum. I'm not trying to troll or anything. Just want different opinions

In the film 'Tiggers Big Movie', we get a glimpse of how Tigger views his family through one of his songs. But we end up never getting to officially see Tigger's actual biological family. Now this may be too reading into things,and defeating the purpose of Winnie the Pooh, but why do the creators want to isolate these characters from outside characters so much?

The canon inside of Winnie the Pooh has always been like this and not just the movies/episodes. In one aspect, we are supposed to take Christopher Robin's world seriously, and in one aspect, we are not supposed to read much into it since it is just a kid's tale.

It is almost like the Hundred-Acre-Wood is some sort of social experiment, and something just doesn't add up. Can anyone explain this aspect of Winnie-the-Pooh to me?

its because hes the only one there are no other tiggers

In the film 'Tiggers Big Movie'

THanks

Frist of all WELCOME TO UD!!!!!!!! 2nd The film is called "The Tigger Movie".3rd Tigger never really had a actual biological family. And finaily Also the Hundred-Acre-Wood is a world in CR's head and the ones who live there are his toys & fantasys.

Take Winnie the Pooh, when he eats too much, he needs to sew himself together. Eeyore's tail is attached with a nail. Why is this? Because all the inhabitants of the 100 Acre Wood are stuffed toys. Tigger is a toy and therefore does not have any relatives. The same for Kanga and Roo, again toys made as a mother and son.

So the point of the Tigger movie is that the only family Tigger has are the other toys of Christopher Robin. They have a family with each other. It is this important lesson that Tigger learns. Owl appears to have a long line of relatives but if you listen to his stories abaout them, you also realise that these are just fantasy stories.

As woody would say to Buzz, "You are a TOY"!

First of all, welcome to the forum!

I vaguely remember an episode of the Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh TV series where we actually see some of Owl's relatives come to visit. If I'm not imagining this episode, then that kinda cancels out that theory.

Tigger is a stuffed animal, and the lesson in The Tiger Movie was that his family was Christopher Robin's toys. He has no biological family, but Owl has one for some reason. My theory is that Disney just made a mistake. It's a plothole in the Pooh world. I know you don't want to hear this, but you shouldn't read too much into it. Plotholes are impossible to explain.

Thanks for welcoming me and posting in here. I really appreciate it.

THINKING back on the Winnie the Pooh tv show, I have actually remembered what you are talking about, Pasta (at least I think so)

There is also something else about the show: Rabbit befriends a female bird who has a broken wing and has to stay in the H.A.W. in order to heal back up, and Rabbit gets close to this bird. Think her name was 'Emily' or something like that.

Yeah. If they were just stuffed animals, then Pooh eating honey makes no real sense (it doesn't need to. it is just a creative gag) ..... and Owl's family is an inconsistancy..... everything does indeed point to it being a plothole.

I agree with what the person replied to you on the other forum.


You're overanalyzing... and I think it's kind of ridiculous to join a forum (sorry, two forums) JUST to ask this question.

but isnt rabbit a real rabbit and isnt owl a real owl so they will have families but pooh tigger eyore kanga roo and piglet are toys

oh and i think the little girl bird was named tessi

oh and welcome to the board stevecory i hope you enjoy your stay

MinnieMe ---- I didn't join the forums JUST to ask this question. I plan on being active in both forums. You just severely jumped to conclusions. You don't have to single me out just because I'm new and exposed. Get over yourself.

I stand corrected.

Well I don't think there was one, BUT there was an episode where Gopher's grandfather came!

No, there was an episode like that. I tracked down a summary. The episode was called Owl in the Family (lil' pun, there). Apparently, nobody actually believed that Owl had a family, but Pooh proved them wrong.

Thanks for looking that up Pasta.

Okay, I stand corrected. But the episode I mentioned about Gopher's Grandfather also exists:

Tigger's family are dead and I thought that they were delicious.

In Pooh's Heffalump Movie, there was a portrait of some of Tigger's family.

so I never got why this was such a big question. cuz nobody asks if Piglet has a family or Pooh. Or who Roo's father is. Only relatives are the endless relations Wol (inside joke) has and Rabbit's actual friends and relations from the books.
