Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
The Disney animated films of any given period all seem to be cut from one big piece of the same brightly colored cloth. Whatever their sources, they have all been seamlessly Disneyized. The Winnie the Pooh shorts are typical products of the Wolfgang Reitherman period of the '60s and '70s, supervised by the animation director responsible for The Sword in the Stone and The Jungle Book. It's jaunty, tuneful stuff, but produced on the cheap, crude, and sketchy-looking in comparison with recent peak achievements of Disney craftsmanship such as Mulan. This second installment (1968) takes off from one of the most stirring episodes in the second of A.A. Milne's books of stories about Christopher Robin and the Hundred Acre Woods crew, 'The House at Pooh Corner,' in which the wood weathers a storm and even a flood, and the animal chums learn to pull together in an emergency. Think of it as a disaster movie for the preschool crowd. --David Chute

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - ANOTHER WINNER FROM A.A. MILNE
WINNIE THE POOH AND THE BLUSTERY DAY IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES. WHEN I WAS SMALL I WATCHED IT ENDLESSLY AND NEVER TIRED OF IT. I'D JUST PLOP MYSELF DOWN ON THE COUCH NEXT TO MY BROTHERS AND ENJOY. THE BASIC STORY IS POOH, WHO OF COURSE LOVES HONEY. WHEN TIGGER BARGES IN AND TELLS HIM ABOUT "HEFFALUMPS"(ELEPHANTS) AND "WOOSELS" (WEASLES)AND THAT THEY ABSOLUTELY LOVE HONEY POOH STAYS UP ALL NIGHT WITH HIS POP-GUN AT HIS SIDE FOR FEAR THAT THEY WOULD COME FOR HIS. WHEN HE FINALLY FALLS ASLEEP HE DREAMS OF "HEFFALUMPS" AND "WOOSELS" THE WHOLE TIME. MEANWHILE PIGLET WHO IS ABSORBED IN HIS DREAMS SUDDENLY AWAKES WITH A FRIGHT. THE 100 ACRE WOODS IS COVERED WITH WATER! FLOOOOD! WHILE EVERYONE ELSE IS HEADING OVER TO CRISTOPHER ROBINS HOUSE (WHICH IS ON A HILL)POOH AND PIGLET ARE STUCK OUT IN THE FLOOD ABOUT TO GO DOWN A "FLUTTERFALL" (PIGLET'S VERSION OF A WATERFALL)WILL OWL SAVE THEM OR WILL HE JUST LET THEM FALL WHILE HE'S ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Ahhh... The classical Pooh!
This is my all-time favorite DISNEY series. I've been watching the entire set of tapes for WTP since I was about 2 or 3 and I STILL never get tired of it! There are 3 episodes in all, and if you were to put em together, you'd get what they call "The Many Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh". This is but one of the many chapters that were used in that movie but all 3 used to have to be sold seperately back in the day. However, I was one of the lucky ones to get the COMPLETE VHS boxed-set that had all 3 Pooh-Bear episodes including: "Winnie The Pooh And The Honey "(1966), "Winnie The Pooh And The Blustery Day"(1968), "Winnie the Pooh And Tigger Too!"(1974). Yes, it even had the BONUS episode, "Winnie The Pooh And A Day For Eeyore"(1983). Blustery Day itself, is one of my favorites next to Tigger Too and is a very VERY fun movie! When a terrible storm hits the 100 Acre Wood, Piglet is stranded out at sea during a giant flood! ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Parents should know before buying
Any parents concerned about their young toddlers or children viewing guns on television may not want to purchase this video. When Pooh is scared at night he gets out his pop gun and starts pacing with it on his shoulder ready to protect himself from any intruders. I was very disappointed in this video.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A True Classic!
Out of all the videos that you will find out there, you have to say that this is one of the true classics. This video won an Oscar Award in 1968 for Best Cartoon short subject.

I love this video and it is full of action. This is the kind of video for you if you are someone who likes videos to be full of action. For example, Owl's tree blows down, and Pooh dreams about Heffalumps and Woozles. Behind all of the scary things, like the Heffalumps and Woozles song, the video is kind and it has a message at the end.(If your kids are under 2, Heffalumps and Woozles may be too extreme).

Out of the four classic Winnie the Pooh tales, I believe that this is the most rewarding and deserving because of how it has good voices, animation, color, artwork, and the story is fun. There are a lot of fun songs to get kids to sing along to.

This is a video that I could keep my eyes on for a ... Read More
