Well, frankly, my opinions on the latest incarnation of Pooh & Co. is … mixed.
Frankly, I don’t think it got any better than the original Disney animation, and everything since then has been an evolution (sometimes with appalling results). The CG animation doesn’t bug me, assuming it’s decently done. I think it’s a mistake to replace Christopher Robin with a girl (though “Darby” is a fine name), both because it makes it less attractive to little boys and because it creates a more radical break from earlier incarnations.
But, heck, I’ve certainly seen worse re-imaginings of classic characters, from Disney and others. We’ll see.

This should be very amusing to my family in Omaha, and my 4 year old cousin Darby. ;P
I don’t mind rehashing old cartoons and movies, just as long as they don’t get butchered.
