Government representatives in Poland have pooh-poohed efforts to use Winnie the Pooh as the official mascot of a town playground. According to The Croatian Times, local officials will not allow the beloved Disney character to grace a poster near the park due to his “ dubious sexuality .” We’re not making this up. “The problem with that bear is it doesn’t have a complete wardrobe,” says Councillor Ryszard Cichy. “It is half naked, which is wholly inappropriate for children.” In Winnie the Pooh’s defense, he is wearing more articles of clothing than most bears out there. Also, he’s a cartoon. A town meeting was held over this divisive issue, with one official reportedly saying Winnie the Pooh “doesn’t wear underpants because it doesn’t have a sex It’s a hermaphrodite.” Councillor Hanna Jachimska, meanwhile, then dared to call out Winnie the Pooh author Alan Alexander Milne. “This is very disturbing,” she said. “The author was over 60 and cut [Pooh’s] testicles off with a razor blade because he had a problem with his identity.” Ummm… we’re not gonna touch that one. All we know is that if wearing pants were a requirement to be a playground mascot, no THG staff member would qualify for the gig. 19 Honest Disney Posters 1. 101 Dalmatians Imagining having 101 children to keep up with pretty much gives us hives. This wouldn’t have happened if people listened to Bob Barker.

Over the course of his career, Robert B. Sherman and his brother Richard wrote some of the most endearing and indelible songs tied to the Disney legacy, including their “It’s a Small World (After All)” theme park ditty and the music for Mary Poppins that earned them two Academy Awards. In honor of the elder Sherman, who passed away this week at the age of 86, let’s traipse down memory lane and revisit some of the Sherman Brothers’ most enduring contributions. “Let’s Get Together” ( The Parent Trap ) “It’s a Small World (After All)” “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” ( Mary Poppins ) “Chim Chim Cher-ee” ( Mary Poppins ) “A Spoonful of Sugar” ( Mary Poppins ) “I Wan’na Be Like You” ( The Jungle Book ) “Portobello Road” ( Bedknobs and Broomsticks ) “The Age of Not Believing” ( Bedknobs and Broomsticks ) “Winnie the Pooh” Theme If you ask me movie music doesn’t get much better than the Mary Poppins songbook, though the Sherman Bros. enjoyed long careers that also included composing music for films like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang , The Aristocats , and Charlotte’s Web .

Sweet as anything and just as slender, the new Winnie the Pooh movie features no adjustments, adjuncts, or fancy add-ons in its title. It’s not called Winnie , Pooh , Winnie the Two , or The New Winnie the Pooh Movie . It’s Winnie the Pooh to you, and in the desperate age of “re” — rejigger, reconstitute, reboot, remember to send your accountant a meat-of-the-month club membership — that means a lot.
