I am so excited for my upcoming trip to California to see the movie, Christopher Robin. While I am there I will be interviewing the cast including Jim Cummings, the voice of Winnie the Pooh and Tigger. I have so many questions!! But that is for next week. For now I have an extended look at the movie to share with you. this piece focuses more on Christopher and Pooh as they navigate London. It is simple and adorable.
My whole family is looking forward to seeing this movie. Andrew is sad that I get to see it before him. I know that I’m going to be relating to the difficulties that Christopher has in the movie. That’s for sure. More about the movie below.
Christopher Robin (Ewan McGregor) and his longtime friend Winnie the Pooh in Disney’s CHRISTOPHER ROBIN.
It is hard for me to believe that it is almost August 3rd and the release of Christopher Robin. Back in February when I attended Disney Social Media Moms Celebration I got to see a ton of the movie and it really spoke to me. Winnie the Pooh is one of Allison’s favorite characters. So much so that she has a ton of Winnie the Pooh things. We even decorated Eva’s room with Winnie the Pooh themed things and she went as Winnie the Pooh for Halloween a couple of times. Andrew did as well. We still have the costume. But, it wasn’t so much that Winnie the Pooh hit me, it was Christopher Robin. The movie is a story of the boy grown into a man who has lost that childlike wonder that he had. It is a story about him learning to play again and finding his inner child. It really hit me.

So, I am truly excited because at the end of the month I am heading to California for the Red Carpet premiere of Christopher Robin. I cannot wait!
When I told Andrew that I was going he was upset because he wanted to watch the movie with me. I told him that I would certainly go with him once I got home. I can go ahead and buy miy tickets today if I want to because advance ticket sales just opened for the movie everywhere. To celebrate I have two featurettes to share with you. One is called Legacy and it talks about what Pooh means to so many people.
