The Disney Studios keep dishing out some quality live-action films based on their greatest animated features of the past. One of the most timeless of them all is surely “The Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh” and now, many years after that film comes “Christopher Robin” which opens today in theaters everywhere. I’ve embedded the official theatrical poster below along with reminder premise and casting. Take a look.

Piercing Ken Thoughts: While I’ve loved the few trailers we’ve seen, I don’t think that I am catching this one on its early theatrical run. I sure hope that many of you readers do since this looks like one charming film. What are your plans? Will you be seeing this one with the Disney Maven in your immediate circle. Chime in down below and enjoy. Be sure to let us know what you thought but please, no spoilers since we do want to see it eventually.
