I like how this movie treats maturity. Giles is easily the spoiled brat who believes himself the sane adult yet sucks the soul and fun out of good hardworking people like Christopher Robin, who himself is likewise struggling with his maturity because of his own horrific experiences. One of the major takeaways of this movie, I feel, is that maturity and peace of mind come from accepting and reaccepting what you enjoyed as a child, not rejecting it. Especially when your life is difficult, reconnecting with the things that made life fun and happy can save you. It's not easy, and sometimes, what used to give you fun may not anymore, but it doesn't hurt to retry them again. Giles is a woozle specifically because he's a soul-sucking bastard. He steals the honey, the sweetness, out of everyone's lives just so HE can that sweetness for himself.
What you just said is why golf is the "fun" of the people who are the most narcissistic people on earth. Look at Tiger Woods. He was only sorry he got caught.
At the end of the film, Christopher Robin saves the company by suggesting the idea of giving employees paid vacation in order to encourage them to buy more luggage. The first American businessman to give his employees both Saturday AND Sunday off of work was Henry Ford, and he only did it so that they would drive more.

I think he assumed from the linguistic/phonetic image of the word Heffalump that it's a massive creature, probably resembling an elephant, or something of that nature.
Giles is definitely a Woozle. Because Woozles steal honey. And what is honey if not sweetness. And people like Giles are the kind that steal the sweetness from the lives of others just so they can enjoy it for themselves, since he has Christopher Robin and the other employees do all the work, denying them time with their family and friends, while he goes off playing golf yet taking all the credit
after everyone leaves Winslow sr. turns to his son. "now...let's talk about your demotion to...janitor i think that's a good place to have you start back up again so you can actually work instead of taking other people's credit."
Another interesting touch. Giles calls Robin and the other workers "hoi polloi". That is a VERY insulting term to refer to the common folk, worse than rabble. It's calling them the equivalent of crap. His true colors were already showing there and then, that he doesn't give a rat's ass about everyone beneath him, that he DOES see them as slave labor at worst. And there was a quick cut away to another board member looking absolutely offended by what Giles was pompously saying, which is also a nice touch. It shows that Giles was pretty much alone in being the stuck-up elitist in that room, probably building.
You are quite right. To add to what you said, the term "hoi polloi" is usually used by high society class characters to insult "lower class" people. Basically saying "we are high and sophisticated and you don't know crap about life"
This showed when a corrupt boss who is sucking the happiness of hardworking people like Christopher Robin get so full of himself that he never expected it to bite him back in the butt in the future. One person can make a difference!
Huh. This moment has been in my mind since I’ve seen this movie. Landlords and real estate agents should learn from Christopher Robin as should all major business cooperations.
I think Mr. Winslow Sr. just assumed from the linguistic/phonetic image that a Heffalump is a large creature like an elephant or something of that nature.
Yeah I didn’t know what a heffolump and a Wozzle is like but by the sounds of them I think Giles is one of them 😂 and clearly he is the one who lost his marbles and not Christopher Robin

It's unfair to Robin, he witnessed a total war and missed out on his daughter's first years now he has to do stressful work
My sister and I LOVE Winnie the Pooh

I bet Giles was later removed from his job by his father the moment he saw the complaints his employees have with him
3:40 - 3:45 "A donkey staring at you? Clearly it's you who've lost your marbles."
This is one of the funniest bosses I have ever met!!
Thank you for the hearts!
“It’s over, Giles! I have the high ground!”
“You underestimate my power!”

The first American businessman to give his employees both Saturday AND Sunday off of work was Henry Ford, and he only did it so that they would drive more.
I also remember that Henry Ford made sure his employees were getting paid enough so they could afford to buy a Model T.

Bernie: Coincidence? I think NOT!
@@alexmcintyre8229 No, it was more so they'd be more motivated to work so they can make more Model Ts
Christopher Robin was absolutely one of the greatest Disney movies I ever saw .
Mine as well. It really reawaken the inner child me.
@@a.jthomas6132I felt the same way. It reawaken my childhood.
I love how Giles father says heffalump instead of elephant without knowing what heffalumps look like
I think he assumed from the linguistic/phonetic image of the word Heffalump that it's a massive creature, probably resembling an elephant, or something of that nature.
1:50 "So that's what a Woozle looks like." 😂😂😂😂😂😂
a Woozle is an weasel like the ferrets,stoats,etc.
Giles is definitely a Woozle. Because Woozles steal honey. And what is honey if not sweetness.

@@reyonXIII that woozle should be fired
@@matthewweikert20 I don't think family connections will save him this time
@@reyonXIII his own father, turning against him
What are the odds?
1:49 Christopher is cold to Giles by calling him a "Woozle"! The latter got the taste of his very own medicine! Wow!
he got woozled
When Eeyore of all people is giving you a death glare you KNOW you’re a horrible person.
after everyone leaves Winslow sr. turns to his son. "now...let's talk about your demotion to...janitor i think that's a good place to have you start back up again so you can actually work instead of taking other people's credit."
And now he can take his shit and dump it in the toilets he's gonna be scrubbing lol.

That is very much common knowledge that other people today are or worse kind of Woozle than Giles.

3:24 love the old boss reaction when he sees that it's Eeyore's tail
Huh. This moment has been in my mind since I’ve seen this movie. Landlords and real estate agents should learn from Christopher Robin as should all major business cooperations.
I love this movie.
Same.
Me too.
Christopher Robin, one of the British inventors of paid leave.
3:27 Eeyore glaring stared.
Can we appericate the fact that the guy knows that a Heffalump is an invisible elephant
I think Mr. Winslow Sr. just assumed from the linguistic/phonetic image that a Heffalump is a large creature like an elephant or something of that nature.
@@MrAqr2598 And what about Lumpy?
@@thecarebearsandcecfan2002
Probably same applies there.
@@MrAqr2598 He's a character from one of the earlier Pooh films (in this case, Pooh's Heffalump Movie).
Yep since Winnie the Pooh have become a part of my childhood.
Woozle the weasel
This whole film reminds me of the classic MGM films of the 1940s....you ever notice that?
How would he know what a Heffalump is if he just now heard of them?
He's basically assuming a Heffalum p must be something like an elephant, given the similar names, I think
He probably made an educated guess based on what it sounds like
Yeah I didn’t know what a heffolump and a Wozzle is like but by the sounds of them I think Giles is one of them 😂 and clearly he is the one who lost his marbles and not Christopher Robin
2:36 Busted.
New kid meets Christopher Robins from pooh in the Legacy of matoro toa of ice
Does anyone have a clue on why this movie is so overlooked? It needs much more love than it currently receives.
2:49~ Can anyone tell me what Giles Jr. the Woozle sat on?
It was an acorn.
@@tycooper9147
Oh, okay. Thanks.
Winslow boss he deserve it
His manager is the bad guy, he's the bosses son.
Every one turned against Giles, Jr.
Giles winslow sr is the former villain turn good
Why was everyone following christopher robin & his family & friends (pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and Eeyore).
likely because the livelihood of these employees depends on Christopher Robin's proposal
1:56 you got roasted
So his boss is the Villian or something?!
Woozle she daughter
He is a Woozle
Too bad we never got to see a Christopher Robin 2 movie
I hope we get one someday or through Disney plus
@@kbraven7007 No chance. It's been 5 years. And so far it hasn't even been discussed.
@@jovan88153211 Though I wish they do, at least Play dates with Winnie the Pooh is on Disney Junior.
idk, some films are too good for a sequel
