    Hey, that’s actually a good comparison and funny thing is a few days ago. I was actually thinking of what would’ve happened if Sir Brian and the dragon actually got to be animated. I was thinking like maybe for Voice wise, sir Brian would have like a British accent, but he sound a bit like a night, but he would be a little more goofy kind of like the nights in Monty Python but tone down for children. He still have that goofy aesthetic though, and maybe for like maybe sometimes his helmet could fall down because that’s a thing for nights like it would block his vision for a few seconds and then have to fix it. And as for the dragon, I’m not sure what kind of Voice would suit him, he could have a goofy voice, but maybe more of a child like Voice like think of like Willie, the giant like his voice, except a little softer think of that attitude, but softer and coming out of a purple dragon’s mouth I think the voice similar to figment wouldn’t really suit him. It would probably sound too similar and people might think it’s like bland. it is a shame that they weren’t in anything aside from comics I would’ve loved to see them. I feel like if I got to see them I probably would’ve fell in love with them. I really liked dragons growing up. Well that’s probably because of dragon tales but I think a lot of us grew up with that show

    9:15 There are actually a few episodes of "The New Adventures of Winnie The Pooh" where we see Tigger get pounced ("The 'New' Eeyore" immediately comes to mind), and he's either absolutely confused by it, or outright hates it. Tigger indeed can not take what he dishes to others.

    That’s always been a strange personality quirk to me for Tigger. He’s always seems very eager to share his passion for bouncing with others (I.e. encouraging Rabbit and the others to join several times), but always seems threatened at the idea of being outdone. Maybe his issue is less not being able to take what he dishes and more a lack of self esteem and purpose, which he grants himself through bouncing?

Also they were a bunch of independent coming together and making good movies by themselves, so clearly there was no big advantage here with them being male and white, they were just a small group that happened to be that coming together making "Book of the celts." on a very small budget and worked from there.

    A friend of mine came up with a theory about that infamous comic strip: we looked it up, and it turned out the writer used to work for Jay Ward, so we figured he must have held onto that sense of humor. We figured, a lot of Pooh's more out-of-character-sounding moments may make more sense coming out of Bullwinkle. It's the mismatch between the wordplay and Pooh being aggresively on-model that makes the strip so memorable and memetic.

    Funny you mention that connection, because turns out Jay Ward wanted to do a film adaptation of Pooh Bear before Disney when NBC had the license. However it was turned into a TV series instead due to NBC finding a film adaptation risky, with there being 3 known composed songs for the pilot, as well the pilot being fully storyboarded with finished character model sheets. The pilot never made it to the animation stages sadly and seems to be lost. Maybe those Jay Ward Pooh designs still exist out there somewhere, hoping at least we can get those at the very least

    If there's one thing I wish to see out of a public domain Pooh Bear, and I doubt we'd get it, is some sort of alternate animation take on the character. Preferably an 80's, early 90's style anime series similar to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Something totally different from the more famous interpretation, with a lot of beautiful art work and relaxing, chill ambiance. Could you imagine if we had one of those back in the day? Anyway, the rarest thing Pooh related I can think of predates Disney. Jay Ward Productions was in the early stages of developing Winnie the Pooh into a theatrical project, even going as far as writing a song or two for it. Nothing came out of it, of course, and Disney swooped up the rights soon after. Whatever concept art/pitch material is clearly lost to time, so we can only imagine a Pooh cartoon in the style of Fractured Fairytales (when they could afford to use their Hollywood animation studio). I'd like to think Bill Scott would have voiced Tigger, similar to Filmore the Bear from Hoppity Hooper.

He can explain the Comic book stuff you might not get. 2. For the Moana video you should do a crossover with Schafrillas for obvious reasons. 3. You should do a video for Disney video game villains not connected to a specific movie or TV show like Kingdom Hearts, Club Penguin, Where's my Water and probably some others.

    Maybe it's just me, but I'm not that bothered with seeing Pooh and friends interact with modern technology, as long as they remain in character of course. "We Bare Bears" has a similar vibe and it turned out well. As for Sir Brian and the Dragon, I feel having those characters interact with Pooh's gang would work for either a one-time special, or if the "New Adventures" show had the latter tell stories to each other involving the duo. I also kind of like the idea of the dragon and Sir Brian being good friends, as if they would only meddle with each other as part of a job, a la Ralph Wolf and Sam the Sheepdog.

    You should do a "Grab Bag" episode dedicated to some of spinoff books and comic staring Marie, Toulouse, and Berlioz. There's also an obscure picture book from 2012 starring Marie called The Aristocats: The Runaway Kittens" (Marie på rymmen (Marie on the run) in Sweden) where Marie temporarily becomes an stray kitten after losing her bows and ribbons during a stroll in Paris. During this period, she befriends an orange kitten resembling Toulouse who shows her the lifestyle for cats that are homeless and lacking food. Poor Marie is reduced to tears after realizing she's no longer pretty and misses her owner and family. There's also an ongoing graphic novel series starring Marie and her brothers titled "The Aristokittens" where they open an animal cafe in Paris and currently has four books in the series. The novels reminds me of the cancelled Aristocats Animated Series idea from 2003 and The Aristocats II that never became a thing.

    7:22 Those comics feel like they just took random jokes and illustrated them with Pooh characters without taking their personalities into consideration. That being said...I usually don't like it when Disney adds characters to the Winnie-the-Pooh pantheon because I feel like the cast A. A. Milne created is perfection but Sir Brian and the dragon sound fun and like they would fit in with the world of Pooh quite well.

    The World According to Winnie the Pooh does seem like a potential idea for bringing Pooh back as a regular TV show, but ultimately got lost to time and never greenlit. Side-note, Piglet in that pilot was voiced by Nigel Pilkington who used his Percy voice from the UK CGI Series dub of Thomas (the Tank Engine) & Friends. Also, while I have yet to see the 2018 Christopher Robin film (I hadn't seen it yet), but when seeing a few images of Evelyn, it makes me wonder what if she'd be a secondary regular character in the New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh as well (as a friend of Christopher Robin and friends with Pooh and stuff), given how a few episodes had the animals go to Christopher's neighborhood and other characters like a few Heffelumps are now the allies to the Hundred Acre Wood, etc. I'd love to see someone make an artwork of Evelyn as a child.

    Pooh Corner concept art, If I had to take an educated guess at when this was made I would say sometime shortly before 2011. Given its placement next to "It's a Small world" this is probably meant to replace "Mickey's ToonTown". The one located in Florida at the Magic Kingdom was closed at this time to make room for the "new fantasyland" expansion. There was also a new animated Winnie the Pooh movie that came out that year. They could have been toy with the idea of closing the ToonTown at Disneyland at the same time end replacing it with a newland, this is very likely a concept art idea for one of those land ideas.

    Maybe if they do a revival of The New Adventures, maybe they could add in Sir Brian and the Dragon, they could be a good comic relief, and help distinguish the revival from the original. And I know there has been no announcements of a revival, but I think a lot of us can agree that if they want to make new Pooh projects while being unique in there own regard, then a New Adventure’s revival series could be a good decision, that series shows that while they can be faithful to Milne’s books, they can also have more outlandish stories with original characters and locations just to mix things up without modernising the source material, and considering that Disney has brought back The Proud Family, X-Men and Star Wars: The Clone Wars for Disney +, then a New Adventures revival could be a good decision, especially when the original was on syndication for almost 20 years after it ended and both Jim Cummings and Peter Cullen are still alive, then I feel that Disney has a good opportunity with Pooh (even if he is now banned in China).

    Yeah, cell phones and Pooh should not mix. I like to think of Pooh's little world as a place where modern things can show up at times, but at the end of the day, it's still just a forest where they live in trees and such, and everything's just kind of cobbled-together - I distinctly remember Rabbit getting his water via an old-fashioned hand-pump system in 'New Adventures. How'd he get it? Who knows; probably there when he moved in. Something like, say, a skateboard or a toy car fits in fine in the Hundred-Acre Woods, but a cell phone?

Use this as a reminder of what was the most infamous Pooh-related piece of media from before Blood and Honey happened: “Silly old bear. If the harbinger of spring is the sound of a bat on a ball, then I have become the harbinger of winter: a barren and desolate spot that your bat will never hit. As my ball strikes the padded glove with the disgruntled furl of thirty thousand fans trudging out of the arena, watching as you throw down your bat in disgust and mourn what you'll never be, know this: you will NEVER defeat me, Pooh Bear. Not as long as you or I will live. They will never tell stories of your greatness or herald you as the second coming of Pitch Hitters. There are 108 stitches in every ball, Pooh Bear. How many do you think I can get on your face? Hahaha... Silly old bear... Silly old bear...”

    I remember the comics from being a kid. In fact, I read more of those than I watched Disney Pooh cartoons (not much cartoons in my childhood for reasons). Since all the Milne characters are either Chrisopher Robin's toys (say, Pooh) or animals from around his house (say, Rabbit), I assumed the knight and the dragon were toys as well - Sir Brian is simply a more human action figure. (Christopher Robin in the books has not only fluffy toys, just like any child might have different toys.)

He gets lost on a tour and bumbles his way into restricted zones or something. He should accidentally teach a lesson as well, not on purpose but by sheer accident, similar to the Christopher Robin movie. Love Winnie the Pooh

    I love this Grab Bag video idea! Personally, I'm glad that the Cartoon Saloon Pooh pilot didn't get made [turning the Hundred Acre Woods into a gated community is awful], but I am also interested in future public domain Winnie The Pooh projects and stories, as long as they don't go the lazy horror route. Hoping for a possible Black Cauldron Grab Bag video one day, if more information on the foreign comics gets revealed.

    My inner 18th century French peasant finds a Pooh show taking place in a gated community to be deeply unsettling. It feels as if they're saying "Sorry poors, Pooh is for rich kids." Kudos to modern Disney for making a rare good decision by not green lighting the show.

    Wishing Winnie the Pooh wasn't public domain so the horror movie wouldn't have been made does not necessarily mean it would work like that. I don't believe The Banana Splits are in the public domain, and we still received the similar Banana Splits horror movie. It all depends on what people are prepared to pay current copyright dues for. I do think such things are inappropriate and I just ignore them, though I still worry about how it may badly impact the characters over time if this turns out to be the common trend.

    I'm not crazy about the "public domain" in general because it gives authors less control over adaptations of their work but I kind of wish Winnie the Pooh had been in public domain during the 90s so that the same people who did The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends and the 1995 Wind in the Willows could have adapted the books. That could have been great.

    You know, it's weird. Just last night, I was watching someone stream Kingdom Hearts, when when they got to the Winnie the Pooh section, I was bringing up stuff from The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh as well as A Day for Eeyore, and I was apparently blowing the streamer's mind, because despite growing up with Winnie the Pooh too, they apparently forgot some details like the origin of Pooh Sticks, or the quote "Now when Pooh heard his Pooh-koo Clock, he knew it was time for something..." I mean, I did watch these animated shorts and features multiple times, both as a kid and as an adult, so I know the backwards and forwards, and I'm not afraid to flaunt my knowledge when the opportunity presents itself. I think I'll use this video as a means to continue to wow that streamer. :P

    They wanted to bring the setting back to England, but make it look more like England is now. I don’t think the implication of the Hundred Acre Wood being turned into a housing development would sit well with too many viewers on either side of the pond. That might be harder to accept than the cell phones when I see children bringing them into restaurants and watching TV while they eat.
