Things We Saw Today: The Christopher Robin Trailer Is a Swift Kick to the Tear Ducts

Recommended Videos

If your social media feeds today were just a flood of tears, it might have something to do with this new trailer for Christopher Robin. The movie centers on a now-grown Christopher Robin, played by Ewan McGregor, trying to reconnect with the joy of his childhood. I’m not sure how this will play with younger audiences (probably great), but for many of us who were fans of Pooh and his friends when we were young and now find ourselves in adulthood, the trailer is a swift kick to the tear ducts.

This is also an appropriate reaction:

Have a great long weekend, Mary Suevians!
