The Animated Pippi Longstocking Has Turned 10 It's been 10 years ago since they brought Pippi Longstocking to life in the world of animation. I first saw this when I was 14, and I've already loved her ever since then. I've also read her books. Astrid Lindgren is an excellent author.
You may not know this, but there is also an animated TV series of Pippi Longstocking as well. Since Pippi was brought to animation 10 years ago, there should be a 10th anniversary special edition DVD of the movie which includes extras such as behind-the-scenes looks of how they brought Pippi into animation, interviews with some of the cast members, and even an audio commentary, among other features. They should also release Pippi's complete animated series on DVD in the United States as well. I had no idea at all her animated adventures were produced in Canada! I like the animated Pippi better than the live-action one.
Whatever happens, and if they ever decide to update the movie on DVD, I'll still love Pippi. PIPPI LONGSTOCKING IS #1!!! ... for me, at least.
My Daughter loves it. My daughter has been a Pippi fan ever since I introduced it to her at the age of 12 months. Now 2 years old, she loves this animated version, but perfers the one of the 90s with Tami Erin. She likes the songs in this one, and I don't think they are so bad. It took me a while to get used to them though! This isn't like the original Pippi that we all know and love so well, but it is a cute, modern, animation to the beloved classic.
Since I was a kid. I've watched Pippi Longstocking (Animation) since I was seven years old. And recently I've misplaced the VHS video. I couldn't help myself but to buy it again! Its a great movie! Fun to watch! Makes me laugh and want pancakes! :]
Pippi rules!! A great story about a strong, creative girl and the non-stop adventures she comes up. Very positive, very fun for kids. My kids (2 and 5) love it.
Read the book instead I didn't think it was possible to take the magic out of Pippi Longstocking, but this movie succeeds in spades. The songs are cringe-worthy, the story is choppy, and Pippi just isn't Pippi.
