Trivia:

More than 900 children, most of them actors, auditioned in the U.S. for the voice of Lumpy. Soon thereafter, auditions were held in the U.K. That day, the team found their Lumpy in five-year-old Kyle Stanger, who had never acted before. Songwriter and recording artist Carly Simon helped come up with Lumpy's full name: Heffridge Trumpler Brompet Heffalump, IV. Simon also sings on the soundtrack and wrote some new songs for the film. According to the team, she became very passionate about the story during production. A Heffalump's favorite food: Cookies called rumple-doodles. Heffalump is the first in the Pooh series in which Winnie the Pooh narrates. For the first time, Roo plays the big lead.

Goofs:

Continuity: Roo ropes a barrel, runs up and rope is gone.

Quotes:

[first lines]
Winnie the Pooh: [narrating] This is one of my favorite once-upon-a-times, although I'm not quite sure which time it was once upon. But it had been so nice and summery in the Hundred Acre Wood and the sunshine was as warm as a blanket. And the streams were gurgling happily. As - as happily as a tumbly full of honey, hoo, which is very happy. But all that changed when... the stranger came.

Pooh's Heffalump 2 Cute!

My husband and I took our 6 year old daughter to see this movie and it was a great choice! The little boy who plays the part of Lumpy sounds so cute he reacted just like a real child would, which is why I'm sure kids and adults alike a drawn to this film. The music was nice too. There should be more of these Pooh movies so that parents can take their children to decent movies that they can enjoy too. The movie seemed a little short but it's understandable since it's made for younger children and we all know little ones usually can't sit through long movies. This one was an exception though since all I heard was laughter from children instead of I wanna go. We all had a good laugh and can't wait for the DVD.This movie is excellent for all ages. In the audience that night I noticed people of all ages from 2yrs to seniors. This G rated movie really was Great!
