IMDb profile

Piglet's Big Movie is a 2003 animated feature produced by the DisneyToon Studios in Tokyo, Japan and released by Walt Disney Pictures and Buena Vista Distribution. It is based upon the characters in the Winnie-the-Pooh books written by A. A. Milne. In this film, Piglet is ashamed of being small but he eventually learns that it's not so bad.

The three flashback sequences are the first adaptations of original A.A. Milne stories since The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh and Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore. Edited to make Piglet the hero of the stories and to conform to the characters' idiosyncrasies as Disney has portrayed them, they nevertheless retain much of Milne's original plot. In this movie, Pooh changes the name of Pooh Corner to Pooh and Piglet Corner, something that he was originally going to do, but the name did not sound small and more like a corner, which it was. Besides the Carly Simon songs, Sherman Brothers music is also featured.

[edit] Trivia

  • As in the New Adventures episode the flashback is based on, Pooh distracts Kanga with the "fish in the tree" as well as their planned revelation of the switch by exclaiming 'AHA!'. However, unlike the episode, Pooh is not the one who comes up with the idea but Rabbit, who is absent from the episode.
  • To date, this is the last in Disney's Winnie the Pooh media line to feature Owl, although he makes cameo appearances in Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas in the "Gift of the Magi" segment.
