* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Creepy and unnerving as it is, the winking Pooh doll at the end of the film and the featurettes it was made from admittedly doesn't look that bad. The winking eyelid is carefully painted and drawn to blend in with the doll, creating a seamless and still impressive effect.

Even funnier is a variation with [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 Pumbaa]] reclining instead of Pooh.

* AmericansHateTingle: While largely tolerated by many; Gopher is quite unpopular with British fans. If only because he was never in the original books (hence the [[LampshadeHanging quips about him]] [[BreakingTheFourthWall "not being in the book"]]), but was created by Disney to give the films more appeal to American audiences. As such, he is considered symbolic of the heavy [[CulturalTranslation Americanization]] the franchise underwent when adapted by Disney. Furthermore, as gophers [[MisplacedWildlife are native only to North and Central America]], his inclusion (and the fact that he's one of the few character who's explicitly not a stuffed animal) [[FridgeLogic implies]] that the location of the Hundred Acre Wood is the US, whereas the original books are clearly set in the UK. As a result, Gopher was excluded from the 2011 animated film and the 2018 live-action film Christopher Robin, as both were specifically designed to be a lot more faithful to the original books and thus more appealing to British audiences.



* TheScrappy: Gopher is not popular among fans of the franchise, especially British fans of the original A.A. Milne books, as Gopher isn't in the books. He was created to give the films more appeal to American audiences and is often criticised for being symbolic of the heavy [[EagleLand Americanisation]] the franchise has undergone under Disney. Furthermore, as gophers are native only to North and Central America, his inclusion has effectively changed the location of the Hundred Acre Wood (and other locations in the forest Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends live in) to the United States, whereas the original books are clearly set in England (specifically in Ashdown Forest, West Sussex). Thanks to his general unpopularity, Gopher was excluded from the [[WesternAnimation/WinnieThePooh2011 2011 animated film]] and the 2018 live-action film ''Film/ChristopherRobin'', as both were specifically designed to be a lot more faithful to the original books and thus more appealing to British audiences.

Pooh's popgun is seen throughout the franchise. He's seen with it in several episodes of The New Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh and had it in Poohs Heffalump Movie, which came out nearly 40 years after the short.


* ValuesDissonance: Pooh wields a ''shotgun'' at one point in ''Blustery Day''. Granted, it’s a toy pop gun and not a real firearm, but the idea of ''Winnie the Pooh'' of all characters wielding a firearm, toy or not, would most certainly not fly today, given that firearms in kids' cartoons have become more scrutinized since the featurette's release in 1968. Likely because of this, Pooh has never been portrayed with a shotgun again since the short.

!!The Ride/DisneyThemeParks Ride:
* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Much like the film, the "Heffalumps and Woozles" segment is this but worse, thanks to the structure of the ride. Any buildup of Tigger explaining the threat to Pooh is gone, and instead Pooh is seen falling asleep and then the sequence happens. It lasts a solid third of the ride's length, yet the ride quickly ignores everything that happened and jumps into the rain storm.
* OpinionMyopia: To this very day, the ride tends to receive scorn from Disney Park fans for replacing ''Mr. Toad's Wild Ride'' and ''Country Bear Jamboree'' at Magic Kingdom and Disneyland, respectively, and are baffled as to why Disney would replace two of their "classic" attractions with a Winnie the Pooh attraction. However, that hasn't stopped ''The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh'' from being one of the most popular dark rides in both parks, and it is often ignored that the reason why Disney replaced ''Mr. Toad'' and ''Country Bear'' with Pooh at all was that both were unpopular amongst guests.
* ReplacementScrappy: In the US theme parks, the ride gets lots of ire from fans for replacing ''Ride/CountryBearJamboree'' in Disneyland and especially ''Mr. Toad's Wild Ride'' in the Magic Kingdom. In both cases, it was seen as taking a beloved classic in the parks and replacing it with a smaller experience that would allow the space for a gift shop to sell merchandise based off a CashCowFranchise. That said, it's [[OpinionMyopia far more popular amongst general guests and especially kids]].
* SoOkayItsAverage: The general consensus of the ride. While the experience itself is nothing special, lacking much of the charm of other Fantasyland dark rides and, in the US, considered inferior to its predecessors, it still has its creative and fun moments and captures the breeziness of the original film well enough.
* TearJerker: The original Magic Kingdom incarnation of the ride ended up being the final performance of Creator/PaulWinchell as Tigger (and one of his last voiceover roles in general) before he passed away in 2005, about six years later. Knowing this makes re-watching the scenes with him in quite bittersweet.

* AnimationAgeGhetto: Out of all of the films in the Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon, this one (and its sequel, ''WesternAnimation/WinnieThePooh2011'') tends to get this treatment the worst, as even massive Disney fans can be quick to dismiss this film as being little more than a "baby/kiddy movie" due to the film's LighterAndSofter tone compared to many of Disney's other animated films. It doesn't help that Disney tends to market the ''Winnie the Pooh'' franchise to a younger demographic compared to their other franchises, which only taints the film's image further.

* ImprovedByTheReCut: While the original standalone featurettes are regarded as being enjoyable, it is universally agreed by fans and critics that the combined film, ''The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh'', is far better than the three original featurettes individually, since it successfully ties them together into a tight and cohesive narrative while adding new content that expands upon the narrative and gives it more depth.
