The film opens to an establishing shot of a view of the young boy, Christopher Robin's bedroom, within the scene a narrator introduces the character and the story as a whole. As the story is about a child's imaginary friends in the form of his toy animals. The narrator mentions they have many adventures in an enchanted place (hundred acre wood) which instantly gives off the feeling that it's a fantasy/adventure genre film. The narrator explains about all of Christopher's friends including his best friend, Whinnie the Pooh. As soon as Pooh bear is mentioned Tigger (In cartoon form) jumps out onto the screen and starts complaining to the narrator saying that the stories should be more about him rather than Pooh bear. The narrator in response says, "but the title is already Whinnie the Pooh" showing a book with Whinnie the Pooh as the title, which normally sets Pooh bear as the main character, however Tigger takes the title and changes it around to say "The Tigger Movie" and then jumps into the book which shows Tigger to be the main character and not Pooh bear. The camera then moves into the book, starting the enchanting adventure in Hundred acre wood.
The film is an animated adventure/fantasy about a child's stuffed animals which connects to practically every child because every child has at least one stuffed animal and many children do fantasize about their toys coming to life which is exactly what this film is about. A boy's creativity playing with his alive toys in an enchanted place.
The atmosphere of the opening sequence is relaxed as it is set out as the narrator telling a story, it really gives off the feeling that your going to hear a good tale and Tigger's interruption makes the story telling vibe a lot more exciting.
Thank you for reading xx
