While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Christopher Robin writes a letter to Santa Claus asking for various presents for him and his friends. He sends the letter into the wind. Later, Winnie the Poon realizes that he didn't ask for anything. He and Piglet search and find the letter. They go to Rabbit's house to rewrite the letter. Everybody wants more than their original wishes. Winnie releases the letter. However when he gets home, the letter gets blown under his door. Santa is not getting their letter. Winnie must pretend to be Santa Claus to fulfill the gang's wishes with Piglet as his reindeer. None of the gifts work quite right and the gang confronts the fake Santa.This is an utterly charming Winnie the Pooh cartoon. It has the light comedic touch that its franchise is famous for. It's also so adorable that Winnie the Pooh is dressed up as Santa Claus. The early 90s version just needs colors that are a bit sharper and cleaner. It doesn't need to be re-edited or anything like that. The story works perfectly fine and I expect any post editing is for time only.

Christmas special with Winnie the Pooh and his friends. It's a lovely, pleasant, cartoon. A very cute story that will put a smile on most faces. The main plot is about Pooh and friends writing to Santa giving him their wishlist for Christmas. What each of them wants is fun. Pooh tries to hand deliver the letter to the North Pole but doesn't make it. Everybody learns a valuable lesson about what's really important at Christmas. It's a nice Christmas story. Not one of the greats but enjoyable. Tigger, Piglet, Rabbit, Gopher, Eeyore are all here. Tigger gets the best lines, as usual. If you like Winnie the Pooh you'll like this cartoon. Give it a shot.

Winnie the Pooh & Christmas Too (1991) *** (out of 4) Cute animated film starts off with Pooh, Christopher Robin, Rabbit, Tigger and Eeyore filling out their lists for Santa. The group sends the letter but soon Pooh realizes that he forgot to put anything down so they track the letter down and make sure it's not sent but by doing this it means the letter won't hit Santa in time. With nothing left to do and wanting to please his friends, Pooh dresses as Santa and plans on getting them their gifts. WINNIE THE POOH & Christmas TOO isn't going to make you forget the classic holiday films out there but if you're a fan of the gang then you should have a good time. The story itself is a pretty good one that allows some nice laughs and a cute adventure. I think the strongest character here is without question TIgger who really gets to shine in his few scenes. Pooh dressed up as Santa also works fairly well and of course there's that certain message for children watching the film. The animation is pretty good and the voice work is also very nice. At just around 22-minutes the film flies by without any slow spots.

As usual, there's not much in this Winnie the Pooh adventure for adults and the story is very, very simple. I like Disney's incarnation of this universe (far removed from AA Milne's world), but the TV series is the best way to enjoy it.This 1991 Xmas Special is introduced by the notorious Michael Eisner before quickly setting up a threadbare plot involving Christopher Robin sending a letter to Santa Claus for himself and his animal friends. Hardly exciting stuff but pleasant and intermittently funny nonetheless, Hundred Acre Wood also looks lovely covered in snow.A nice effort, but hardly one you're likely to remember.
