Talk:Piglet (Winnie-the-Pooh)

Untitled

This article needs some serious cleaning up. I can't be bothered, so I'm not the man to undertake it. In fact, you never saw me looking at this page. I'm not gay. Really. --195.92.67.75 29 June 2005 00:49 (UTC)

Thanks for going to the trouble to point that out. The articles for all the Pooh characters need to be cleaned up and standardized. --Dan East June 29, 2005 03:40 (UTC)

Yes, I noticed. I was going to {{attention}} them, before realising there were too many. And that I still can't be bothered. --195.92.67.78 29 June 2005 12:45 (UTC)

Moved Slesinger and Disney related Content

You can find it at Disney representation of the Milne character "Piglet"Lkinkade 00:59, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm not yet convinced it's a good idea to split that off- the main article on the character could easily compare and contrast Milne's original with the Disney or other treatments. Friday (talk) 16:33, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Discussion of this is at Talk:Winnie-the-Pooh, for lack of a better location. Powers ^T 18:45, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Can we get an original Ernest Shepard drawing of Piglet from anywhere?...I hate to see only the Disney version there.Shadowcrow 04:08,, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

I've uploaded a picture, having alerted the rights experts at Wikipedia (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Media_copyright_questions#Illustration_of_Piglet_by_E.H._Shepard); I'm no expert, but if anyone can help securing the same status for this as the Disney pic currently enjoys, I think that would make a lot of E.H. Shepard fans very happy. Alfietucker (talk) 23:11, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Censorship?

At best incredibly insignificant, at worst a non-issue. Why is it here? I'm removing it. -- Mttll (talk) 13:50, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

Well, news sources reported on it, which is how we judge notability of an issue. Powers ^T 12:44, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

"Voiced by"

I don't think it's appropriate to list immediately under the bare information that the character was created by AA Milne the voice actors who portrayed Pigler for Disney films without explaining the Disney connection. While this might be 'taken as read' by those (predominantly North Americans) whose knowledge of the character begins and ends with Disney, it doesn't take into account that a) Piglet has been dramatized in productions other than Disney; b) the voices listed have absolutely nothing to do with AA Milne's original concept. Unless some good reasons can be given here for keeping the voices in the box, I propose returning them to an info box in the "Disney adaptations" section of the article.

The original toy belonging to Christopher Robin Milne

The article could do with a section on the actual Piglet toy in Christopher Robin Milne's collection,as per the Origin section of the Winnie-The-Pooh article. Apparently the Piglet toy was permanently mislaid at Ashdown Forest.62.190.148.115 (talk) 13:34, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Actually, it's Roo that's missing. Piglet is still with the others in that museum in New York.62.190.148.115 (talk) 16:01, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 19 May 2019

Please change "trespassers will be persecuted" to "trespassers will be prosecuted". The former is somewhat hilarious. The latter is correct. Ratunderpaper (talk) 19:02, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

Done, thanks! :) – Þjarkur (talk) 20:14, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

Twisted Childhood Universe

Piglet appears as one of the two main antagonists along side Winnie-the-Pooh in Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey, a horror film adaptation depicting both Winnie-the-Pooh and Piglet as homicidal maniacs who go on a killing spree after Christopher Robin abandons them. This is the first Pooh adaptation in The Twisted Childhood Universe. In the sequel Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2, Pooh and Piglet team up with Owl and Tigger to target the town of Ashdown after Christopher exposed their existence following the events of the first film. Piglet will also appear in Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 3, a third film in the Blood and Honey series announced on 28 March 2024. Piglet is similar to Leatherface from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise, due to his wearing an apron and carrying a chainsaw, and acting as the heavy to a group of maniacs, while Winnie-the-Pooh is similar to Michael Myers from the Halloween franchise, due to his mainly silent nature, durability, committing mass murder and being related to the main protagonist, and he is also similar to Jason Voorhees from the Friday the 13th franchise. 2601:401:4300:3720:9E4:C62F:811F:D460 (talk) 18:36, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
