Lady and the Tramp

starring: Barbara Luddy, Larry Roberts, Peggy Lee, Bill Thompson, Bill Baucom
directed by: Clyde Geronimi, Hamilton Luske, Wilfred Jackson

September 15, 1998
The US DVD have a severely cropped image (though not 4x3) compared to the english region 2 release, which offer the complete image in a very wide format, with lots of black top and bottom. In you don't have a 31 inch (or bigger) 16x9 TV set, this can look awkward, but if you do, get the UK region 2 release, if you can. The difference is dramatic! Believe me. I have both. I got the US version first, but as the resolution isn't enough in NTSC, I got the UK release as well, and what I got, and only recently discovered, was a much wider image.

The US image perfectly fill up the 16x9 screen, but...whoa, how much it leaves out!!!!

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (Walt Disney's Masterpiece)

starring: Sebastian Cabot, Junius Matthews, Barbara Luddy, Howard Morris, John Fiedler
directed by: John Lounsbery, Wolfgang Reitherman

March 19, 1996
Disney really could have crammed ALL the Winnie the Pooh theatrical shorts onto this disc. As it is, we're given three strung together as one (Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree, Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day and Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too!) with some new footage (in much the same way as Daffy Duck's Quackbusters). Because of this, there is no consistent story from beginning to end other than the usual hapless, hijinks of the animals from Hundred Acre Wood. I really would have preferred the complete original cartoons, but that's why I don't work for Disney.

They certainly don't make cartoons like this anymore though (too busy with soulless rubbish like Meet the Robinsons [Blu-ray]). TMAOWTP was certainly one of their last greats ... Read More:

Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too

starring: Sebastian Cabot, Clint Howard, Dori Whitaker, Paul Winchell, Sterling Holloway
directed by: John Lounsbery

October 07, 1997
Attention: All Parents

If you have a child that is 1-3 years of age, then classic Pooh videos are a must for your collection. Your child will fall in love with the characters, the songs, and the storyline. I really like the length of the videos as well (not too long, but not too short either...you parents know what I mean).

Bottom line: This a good, wholesome Pooh adventure that your child will love!
