The 51st {{film}} in the Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon.[[note]]Except in the United Kingdom where it's excluded altogether.[[/note]] ''Winnie the Pooh'' is a direct sequel to the 1977 film ''Disney/TheManyAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh''. It is based on three previously unadapted Pooh stories from [[Literature/WinnieThePooh the book]] ("In Which Eeyore Loses a Tail and Pooh Finds One" and a fusion of "In Which Rabbit Has a Busy Day and We Learn What Christopher Robin Does in the Mornings" and "In Which Piglet Meets a Heffalump").
* Pooh runs out of honey and has to find some.
* Eeyore's tail is gone and everyone tries to find the perfect replacement.
* Christopher Robin goes away for a while and leaves a note saying he'll be "back soon", but his friends assume that he was captured by a monster called the Backson, and go on a hunt for it!

This movie also opened with the [[WesternAnimation/MiscellaneousDisneyShorts theatrical short cartoon]] ''The Ballad of Nessie''.

!!''Winnie the Pooh'' provides examples of the following tropes:
* AlternativeForeignThemeSong: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcTA12701S8 "Witaj w moim swiecie"]] by Edyta Bartosiewicz is the ending theme for the Polish version.
* AnAesop: Put your friends first.
* ArcWords: "A very important thing to do."
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: Played straight when Owl first describes the Backson to Tigger. "Malicious, ferocious, and worst of all, terribly busy!"
* ArtShift: "The Backson Song" is done in the form of animated chalk drawings.
* BaitAndSwitchComment: Rabbit tells Owl how much he admired the speech [[spoiler: instead of what was expected, that Owl could fly out of the pit they were all stuck in.]]
* BewareTheNiceOnes: After finding out Owl's story with the Backson isn't real, the other animals[[note]]besides Pooh and Piglet who just look confused[[/note]] give him uncharacteristically angry enough looks that he decides to make a hasty exit.
* BodyHorror:
** A PlayedForLaughs example is done [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgcwFWoY83k in this teaser clip]] -- when Pooh tries to reach for a pot of honey, his belly ''bursts open'' -- to reveal a bunch of white stuffing inside. It also serves as a CallBack to ''Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree'', where the same thing happens during Pooh's morning exercises.
-->"Oh, stuff and fluff!"
** When Pooh is dancing among a line of duplicates of himself made of honey, he casually ''bites off the head'' of the honey Pooh in front of him.
* BookEnds: The live-action shots of Christopher Robin's room.
* BreadEggsMilkSquick: [[spoiler:Everything that Owl claims the Backson does is worthy only of PokeThePoodle, except for "Stealing your youth", which is pretty dangerous, and "Chipping your tooth", which obviously, would be pretty painful.]]
* BreatherEpisode: Of the Modern Era films in the Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon. The film is much shorter the other recent films in the Canon, clocking in at barely over an hour (it's shorter than ''Disney/{{Dumbo}}'', but the second-shortest to ''Disney/SaludosAmigos''!), is much more light-hearted, and focuses more on comedy.
* BrokenRecord: In Pooh's honey-induced hallucination, everyone starts repeating the word "honey" over and over, including the narrator:
-->'''Narrator:''' As Pooh watched the honey honey away, his honey honey honey honey honey honey honey honey honey honey honey honey honey...
* ButtMonkey
** Eeyore, in this case, one-half.
** Piglet.
** Rabbit, sometimes.
* ButtSticker: At the beginning of "The Backson Song", the Backson drops on Owl and starts dancing, then turns around to show Owl flattened on his backside.
* CatchPhrase:
** "Oh bother" for Pooh.
** "Silly old bear" for Christopher Robin.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Gopher does not appear nor is he mentioned. This is probably to emphasize the producers' intent to return to the original stories, [[CanonForeigner where he didn't appear either]], after so many movies and specials that have had him.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Everyone to some degree, but ''especially'' Piglet.
* CompanionCube: Christopher Robin's balloon, nicknamed "B'loon", is a completely normal (if unrealistically indestructible) balloon, but is treated by all the characters as if it was a living, sentient character. [[spoiler:This is taken to its logical (and hilarious) extreme towards the end of the movie, when B'loon gets all the credit for saving everyone.]]
* ConspicuousCG: The hunny pots at a few points along with some bushes.
* ContinuityNod: Eeyore tells Tigger "The most wonderful thing about Tiggers is that you're the only one." Tigger had told Pooh in a previous movie "The most wonderful thing about Tiggers is that I'm the only one!"
* CreativeClosingCredits: The credits start with the stuffed animals posed in various scenes from the film as Christopher Robin would do with them in his room, and then their animated versions interact with the rolling credits.
* DarkReprise:
** "A Very Important Thing to Do".
** More a 'Gloomy Reprise' than anything, but there is a victory song sung [[RunningGag whenever somebody finds a replacement for Eeyore's tail]]. When Eeyore replaces his tail by himself (using an [[spoiler:anchor]]), he walks in on the scene and sings a solo version declaring himself victor. The enthusiasm he shows when singing is the same amount he shows for [[TheEeyore most things he does]].
* DeadpanSnarker: ''[[KindheartedSimpleton Pooh]]'' gets in on this occasionally in his scenes with Owl.
* DenserAndWackier: Than even the original 3 featurettes! Given the writing and the animation, this was wholly intentional by the directors!
* DisneyAcidSequence: "The Backson Song" and "Everything is Honey".
* ForgotICouldFly:
** [[spoiler:Averted in an interesting way. When Pooh and friends (aside from Piglet) are stuck in a pit, their only means of escape are from a rope that is quickly cut up for the each of them. Their only other option is Owl, who can fly, but this does not occur to them. However, when Piglet becomes afraid to go to Christopher Robin's house alone, Owl flies up there, encourages Piglet to travel, and then flies back down into the pit. After that, they comment on...the speech he made.]]
** In a less funny way, when Pooh and friends begin to line up items to the Backson Trap, Owl uses a rope to lower himself down to the bridge where Pooh and friends play Pooh sticks. To place items.
* EasterEgg: Look at the poster on this page and [[TheShadowKnows think about what the trees look like]].
* TheEeyore: [[TropeNamer Eeyore]]. Not that anybody cares.
* EndOfAnAge: This movie is notably the final 2D hand-drawn film in the Disney Animated Canon to date, as those succeeding this one (at least as of the beginning of 2018) are fully 3D CGI.
* FiveManBand: The group can be seen as this.
** TheHero: Winnie the Pooh
** TheLancer: Tigger
** TheSmartGuy: Rabbit
** TheBigGuy: Eeyore
** TheChick: Piglet
** [[{{Mentors}} The Mentor]]: Owl
** TeamMom: Kanga
** TagalongKid: Roo
** BigBrotherMentor: Christopher Robin
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: In "The Backson Song", the characters all complain about holes in their socks -- except Pooh, who has holes in his shirt and a solid sock.
* {{Gesundheit}}: The "issue" gag.
* KnowNothingKnowItAll: Owl, like in the original films, taken UpToEleven.
* LateToTheRealization: Owl gets this '''''after''''' singing the TheVillainSucksSong.
--> '''Owl:''' [''after everyone has left''] Hmm... "Back soon."\\
'''Everyone:''' [''singing''] '''''BAAAAAACK SOOOOOOOOOOOONNNN!'''''\\
'''Owl:''' "Back soon." Sounds an awful lot like Backson. Ah, oh well! [''flies off'']
* LighterAndSofter[=/=]ReverseCerebusSyndrome: This film is ''much'' less dramatic [[DarkerAndEdgier than the Pooh films of the 1990s/2000s]], instead taking a more breezy, comedic approach to the material similar to the original [[Disney/TheManyAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh 1977 feature film]]. Makes sense, as this movie is also based on the original A.A. Milne stories.
* [[MeatOVision Honey-O-Vision]]: After spending almost the entire day without honey, Pooh does this. It gets so bad that dialogue is replaced with the characters just saying "honey" and the book's words all replaced with "honey" as well. Also falls under MadnessMantra, arguably.
* UsefulNotes/TheMillenniumAgeOfAnimation
* MusicalisInterruptus: The musical "Honey Pot" sequence gets cut off abruptly as Kanga requests that they celebrate her giving Eeyore a tail with silence. Which is ironic considering the voice of Kanga is the [[CreatorCameo co-songwriter]] of the film.
* NeverSayDie: Averted twice by Owl and once by Eeyore.
* NeverTrustATrailer: The first trailer was [[TearJerker surprisingly sad]], seemingly going with the audience's nostalgia for the original shorts and implying that Christopher Robin is giving up his toys. The movie itself on the other hand, was DenserAndWackier (though still having its moments), and adapted three A.A. Milne stories previously unadapted. [[TropesAreNotBad Not that that hurt the movie in any way,]] but it's still an example.
* NoAnimalsWereHarmed: The end credits include a statement proclaiming that "No stuffed animals were harmed".
* NoFourthWall: Like the featurettes, the Narrator frequently interacts and gives advice with the characters, who can also walk on, touch, and knock down letters from the pages of the book they are in. This even serves as a plot point.
* NoodleIncident: Owl to Pooh -- "...And let me tell you, that was the last time I'll ever put MY beak in a keyhole!"
* PromotedToOpeningTitles: While the original features showed his stuffed toy counterpart, Tigger is strangely absent from the theme song, he is finally added to the ThemeTuneRollCall in this film. Fittingly in an AndZoidberg fashion after Kanga and Roo.
* PokeThePoodle: The Backson's "evil deeds" seem to be this.
* PopStarComposer: Creator/ZooeyDeschanel performed the film's songs (written by the co-writers of ''Theatre/AvenueQ''). The end credits song ("So Long") is written by Deschanel and her She & Him partner M. Ward.
* RandomEventsPlot: This film manages to take three chapters from the books and mix them all into one competently structured story, albeit with several scenes that do nothing to push the plot forward. Given how its established that this is completely in the imagination of a child, it's all in good fun. It's also a nice nod to the source material, which was more concerned with humor and charm than narrative, and also to the 1960's Disney films directed by Woolie Reitherman, which were all pretty episodic.
* RealAfterAll: [[spoiler:The Backson makes an appearance in the post-credits stinger, but he seems a rather cheerful fellow rather than the monster Pooh and his friends thought he was, [[SequelHook hinting at a sequel.]]]]
* {{Retraux}}: The film makes more of an effort to follow the style of the original shorts more closely than the previous Disney Toon ''Pooh'' films, right down to details like xerox lines and the backgrounds.
* RunningGag: Several.
** Eeyore loses his tail, and throughout the movie characters keep attaching different objects to the nail on his buttocks.
** Pooh's strangely-human tummy rumbling sounds.
** Everyone singing the Congratulations song every time someone finds a tail for Eeyore. Including a gloomy, solo version sung by Eeyore himself when he walks onto the scene with his new found tail ([[spoiler:an ''anchor'']]).
* SceneryPorn: The watercolor backgrounds are very nice to look at.
* SeparatedByACommonLanguage: There was a minor kerfluffle among British viewers about Rabbit referring to a "jump rope" rather than a "skipping rope". The same character at one point also imagines getting a lot of money, which has [[WeAllLiveInAmerica dollar signs on it]].
* ShoutOut:
** A shot of Piglet replacing a pine cone on a tree stump with a teapot is a homage to the opening of ''Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk''.
** ''[[Film/TheWizardOfOz "Aw shucks, I'm speechless."]]''
* TheStinger: [[spoiler:The Backson stomps along through the woods, looking menacing, and then comes across the objects trail that Pooh and friends left, and cheerfully proclaims about how you can find so many interesting things in the woods. He sees the picture of himself, thinks everything must belong to the guy in the picture, and proceeds to pick up the items, leading right into the pit and falling into it.]]
-->[[spoiler:'''The Backson:''' I hope he'll be [[BrickJoke back soon!]]]]
* StoryBookOpening: 'Natch.
* SubvertedRhymeEveryOccasion: Shows up a lot in "The Backson Song".
-->'''Owl:''' ''Its toes are black\\
Its fur is blue\\
I swear that all I tell you is [[CrowningMomentOfFunny NOT MADE UP!]]''
* TakeThat: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6GMxyYdcpU These two]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMeTL1seIWo&feature=relmfu trailer spots]], which poke fun at ''Film/HarryPotterAndTheDeathlyHallows: Part 2'', which was released on ''the same day'' as this film. HarsherInHindsight with that film drawing in the lion share of cinemagoers often being cited as one of the main reasons this film [[AcclaimedFlop barely even made back its own budget despite the warm critical reception]].
* TrailerSpoof: The movie came out the same weekend as ''[[Film/HarryPotter Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows]]'', and thus some Pooh ads started out with lighting text on a cloudy sky (like the Harry Potter movies) with taglines such as "Get ready for the final battle" and "How do you spell adventure?" ...with cuts to Pooh running from bees and inverting a set of blocks from "[[TakeThat POTR]]" to "POOH".
* TemptingFate: After Piglet gets stuck in a beehive, he comments how the bees are actually being very calm and as long as nothing riles them he should be fine. Pooh then immediately proceeds to hit the hive with a stick.
* TookALevelInDumbass: In previous Pooh features, especially the ones just preceding this one, Kanga was usually the TeamMom and OnlySaneMan. In this film, she is [[NotSoAboveItAll just as silly natured and naive as the other animals]], and as easily convinced into Owl's wild goose chase with the Backson.
* TheVillainSucksSong: "The Backson Song".
* WhosOnFirst: The "knot, not, naught" conversation:
-->'''Piglet''' [''who has just cut the rope into pieces'']: And six! There! Now we can ''all'' get out!
-->'''Pooh''': How very thoughtful you are, Piglet.
-->'''Rabbit''' [''becoming frustrated'']: Good grief! Tie them together, Piglet! Can you tie a knot?
-->'''Piglet''': I cannot. [''Rabbit misunderstands this as "I can knot".'']
-->'''Rabbit''': Ah, so you ''can'' knot.
-->'''Piglet''': No, I cannot knot.
-->'''Rabbit''' [''disbelievingly'']: ''Not'' knot?
-->'''Pooh''': [[KnockKnockJoke Who's there?]]
-->'''Rabbit''': Pooh!
-->'''Pooh''': Pooh who?
-->'''Rabbit''': No. Pooh-- er Piglet, you'll need more than two knots.
-->'''Piglet''': Not possible.
-->'''Owl''': Ah, so it ''is'' possible to knot those pieces.
-->'''Piglet''': [[RunningGag Not these pieces.]]
-->'''Pooh''': Yes, knot those pieces.
-->'''Piglet''': Why not?
-->'''Eeyore''': 'Cause it's all for naught.
* XRaySparks: Parodied in a FreezeFrameBonus, during a montage of Eeyore trying out replacements for his tail (he uses a weather vane at one point and gets struck by lightning). [[CaptainObvious Instead of a skeleton, he's full of stuffing]].
* YourOtherLeft: The Narrator says this when he's trying to get Pooh to look at the letter left by Christopher Robin.

** A shot of Piglet replacing a pine cone on a tree stump with a teapot is a homage to the opening of ''Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk''.
** ''[[Film/TheWizardOfOz "Aw shucks, I'm speechless."]]''
* TheStinger: [[spoiler:The Backson stomps along through the woods, looking menacing, and then comes across the objects trail that Pooh and friends left, and cheerfully proclaims about how you can find so many interesting things in the woods. He sees the picture of himself, thinks everything must belong to the guy in the picture, and proceeds to pick up the items, leading right into the pit and falling into it.]]
-->[[spoiler:'''The Backson:''' I hope he'll be [[BrickJoke back soon!]]]]
* StoryBookOpening: 'Natch.
* SubvertedRhymeEveryOccasion: Shows up a lot in "The Backson Song".
-->'''Owl:''' ''Its toes are black\\
Its fur is blue\\
I swear that all I tell you is [[CrowningMomentOfFunny NOT MADE UP!]]''
* TakeThat: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6GMxyYdcpU These two]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMeTL1seIWo&feature=relmfu trailer spots]], which poke fun at ''Film/HarryPotterAndTheDeathlyHallows: Part 2'', which was released on ''the same day'' as this film. HarsherInHindsight with that film drawing in the lion share of cinemagoers often being cited as one of the main reasons this film [[AcclaimedFlop barely even made back its own budget despite the warm critical reception]].
* TrailerSpoof: The movie came out the same weekend as ''[[Film/HarryPotter Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows]]'', and thus some Pooh ads started out with lighting text on a cloudy sky (like the Harry Potter movies) with taglines such as "Get ready for the final battle" and "How do you spell adventure?" ...with cuts to Pooh running from bees and inverting a set of blocks from "[[TakeThat POTR]]" to "POOH".
* TemptingFate: After Piglet gets stuck in a beehive, he comments how the bees are actually being very calm and as long as nothing riles them he should be fine. Pooh then immediately proceeds to hit the hive with a stick.
* TookALevelInDumbass: In previous Pooh features, especially the ones just preceding this one, Kanga was usually the TeamMom and OnlySaneMan. In this film, she is [[NotSoAboveItAll just as silly natured and naive as the other animals]], and as easily convinced into Owl's wild goose chase with the Backson.
* TheVillainSucksSong: "The Backson Song".
* WhosOnFirst: The "knot, not, naught" conversation:
-->'''Piglet''' [''who has just cut the rope into pieces'']: And six! There! Now we can ''all'' get out!
-->'''Pooh''': How very thoughtful you are, Piglet.
-->'''Rabbit''' [''becoming frustrated'']: Good grief! Tie them together, Piglet! Can you tie a knot?
-->'''Piglet''': I cannot. [''Rabbit misunderstands this as "I can knot".'']
-->'''Rabbit''': Ah, so you ''can'' knot.
-->'''Piglet''': No, I cannot knot.
-->'''Rabbit''' [''disbelievingly'']: ''Not'' knot?
-->'''Pooh''': [[KnockKnockJoke Who's there?]]
-->'''Rabbit''': Pooh!
-->'''Pooh''': Pooh who?
-->'''Rabbit''': No. Pooh-- er Piglet, you'll need more than two knots.
-->'''Piglet''': Not possible.
-->'''Owl''': Ah, so it ''is'' possible to knot those pieces.
-->'''Piglet''': [[RunningGag Not these pieces.]]
-->'''Pooh''': Yes, knot those pieces.
-->'''Piglet''': Why not?
-->'''Eeyore''': 'Cause it's all for naught.
* XRaySparks: Parodied in a FreezeFrameBonus, during a montage of Eeyore trying out replacements for his tail (he uses a weather vane at one point and gets struck by lightning). [[CaptainObvious Instead of a skeleton, he's full of stuffing]].
* YourOtherLeft: The Narrator says this when he's trying to get Pooh to look at the letter left by Christopher Robin.
