PodBill Just what I expected

GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

OllieSuave-007 This is a sequel to the Silly Symphony short, The Three Little Pigs, bringing back the three animals and the notorious Big Bad Wolf for some more forest fun and thrills. This time, the wolf is out to get Little Red Riding Hood, who is out visiting her Granny. Therefore, the Three Little Pigs try to intervene to save the day. Great merger of the two stories into one cartoon and great music that is nostalgic of the first Three Little Pigs cartoon, especially a nice reprise of "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf," sung to some very serene violin sounds. Lots of laughs and fun. Great, entertaining one for the family.Grade A

Shawn Watson Little Red Riding hood arrives at the three little pigs' stone house where they are still frolicking campily (and the house still under construction, strangely). Hood, herself appearing as a cross between Shirley Temple and Betty Boop, asks to be escorted to Grandma's while the wolf, still in search of dinner, lays a trap in order to preserve his spot on the food chain.As much as I'd like to see an animated Disney bloodbath where Hood gets her throat torn out and Wolfie get his pork chops I'm sad to say that it doesn't happen. Even the previous acceptance of swallowing grandma whole has been avoided, but the torture of the poor canine simply for wishing to be fed is okay.Forgettable.

zetes This is a Disney retelling of the Little Red Riding Hood story. It is a sequel to the famous Three Little Pigs short they made a year earlier (Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?). In it, Little Red Riding Hood is trying to get to her grandmother's house, and the two irresponsible little pigs offer to walk her through the woods, although their older brother, the practical pig, warns them to go the long route to avoid the wolf. The Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf would appear in two more sequels, The Three Little Wolves and The Practical Pig, which are quite better than this one. 7/10.

Ron Oliver A Walt Disney SILLY SYMPHONY Cartoon Short.THE BIG BAD WOLF has returned, and this time he's after Little Red Riding Hood. Only the Practical Pig can save her and old Granny now.With the huge commercial success of THREE LITTLE PIGS (1933), it was inevitable that Disney would produce a follow-up. This film is a good, well-plotted sequel, with the diminutive porcine heroes interpolated into the story of Red Riding Hood quite nicely. The wolf gets to use more of his thespian disguises, this time appearing as both a fairy queen & Granny. Viewers will notice that Practical Pig's hard at work building an addition to his brick house, doubtless due to the fact that his two silly brothers now reside with him.The story of the never-ending struggle between the Pigs & their hairy nemesis continues in THREE LITTLE WOLVES (1936).The SILLY SYMPHONIES, which Walt Disney produced for a ten year period beginning in 1929, are among the most fascinating of all animated series. Unlike the Mickey Mouse cartoons in which action was paramount, with the Symphonies the action was made to fit the music. There was little plot in the early Symphonies, which featured lively inanimate objects and anthropomorphic plants & animals, all moving frantically to the soundtrack. Gradually, however, the Symphonies became the school where Walt's animators learned to work with color and began to experiment with plot, characterization & photographic special effects. The pages of Fable & Fairy Tale, Myth & Mother Goose were all mined to provide story lines and even Hollywood's musicals & celebrities were effectively spoofed. It was from this rich soil that Disney's feature-length animation was to spring. In 1939, with SNOW WHITE successfully behind him and PINOCCHIO & FANTASIA on the near horizon, Walt phased out the SILLY SYMPHONIES; they had run their course & served their purpose.
