Ohhh that's tough. I don't think I could choose one, but if I had to choose a specific aspect, it would be Pooh Bear and Christopher Robin's friendship. That just made the whole thing so childlike and wonderful.

To be honest, the entire atmosphere of WtP - getting lost in this magical land where there are no grown-ups, no boundaries to your adventures other than the limit of your imagination, and the way it always seemed like this eternal escape from real life, into a place that will always exist in your mind, so long as you want it too.

I really want to go to Ashdown Forest, the place Milne based the books on.

I didn't know that that's where he based Hundred Acre Wood on. That's cool. Yeah, I liked that atmosphere. In a way, it was kind of magical; the way that whatever adventure they would find themselves lost in, they would try to use logic in whatever way made the most sense to them; and throughout the story, they had the magic of imagination and friendship to keep themselves happy. I liked that in Milne, his book was adorable.

Yeah I absolutely love the logic in the books. So funny. 'Is there anybody home?' 'No!' 'No one at all?' 'No, nobody!' 'That's too bad. But, there must be somebody home, because somebody had to have said nobody was home! Is that you, Rabbit?' 'Oh... oh, hello Pooh Bear.'

Hehehehe XD

haha...that part was so cute!...Owl, wise though he was in many ways, able to read and write and spell his own name WOL...somehow went all to pieces over delicate words like "measles" and "buttered toast".

Hahaha Wol. OMG the bit where Piglet gives Owl his house. When I watched that as a kid, it was sad, but when I watch it as an adult it's sad on a whole othe, bizzare level. It's his HOUSE!! Everyone knows it's his house!! How can Owl take it?! Poor Piglet haha.

Well, throughout the whole movie, I can't help but feel sorry for Piglet. He's such a meek, sensitive character who lacks self-confidence. At least he has Pooh Bear, otherwise he'd be like Eyore.

I know! it's like, Pooh looks up to Christopher Robin, and Piglet looks up to Pooh! It's so sweet. All the best quotes are between Pooh and C-R or Pooh and Piglet.

True, I love the narration, though. The way Milne describes the way Pooh thinks, or the reactions of Rabbit to Tigger's intrusions are amazing. I love the sketches of the characters in the story, too. So adorable!
