HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Rexanne It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Hitchcoc We've all seen this a hundred times. The lazy pigs build houses of straw and sticks and fool around, singing that song. Meanwhile, the practical third one is putting up a brick building. The wolf is lurking and has pork chops on his mind. After accosting the first two pigs, he must make it past the door of the third little pig. The animation is wonderful. This is Disney and it is pristine, far superior to other efforts at that time. There is a great deal of humor, particularly related to the arrogant bragging of the first two pigs. The wolf is a sight to behold. He is obviously born of poverty, but more of a symbol of the threat that faced those who had little in 1933. Disney was just getting his chops in the animation business and the rest is history.

MisterWhiplash Well, to start with, what do you say about a cartoon that somehow got its way into The Shining? Well, it's that damn iconic, simply put. I first saw this short many years back, so long ago it was when the Disney channel played, from time to time, 1930s and 40s Disney cartoons at certain times of the morning or day (when kids were at school so, you know, on sick days and such). It stuck with me for the simple reason that, hey, it's the 3 Little Pigs, what kid doesn't know the basic gist of it? The Big Bad Wolf will come to the door, you got to know how to defend against him from getting in."Not by the hair on my chinny chin chin," being one of those lines. But what's so much fun about the short, why I can remember it (and them, there was more than one short I think) was that it kept the song catchy throughout, the animated characters had strong, direct personalities, and I actually felt some danger for those little animated pigs from the Wolf. It's colorful, it's funny, it's a little terrifying in the strange way that a 30s cartoon can get in little moments, and it has persevered due to its message for young and old alike of facing against the odds and the "Big Other" that might try to come down. It's great to find out that the term 'Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf' was used as a line of optimism in the Depression too.

Foreverisacastironmess Well I sure-as-sugar thought it was!!! Three ugly annoying pigs constantly showing off their gross pink little pig fannies,(butts) are menaced by a wolf who at least had the decency to wear pants! I just thought this whole rotten excuse for a silly symphony was stupid and babyish, especially when the pigs prance around like little idiots and sing "who's afraid..." I know in a way all the Disney shorts are for children, but I really found myself hating this one. I found the pigs to be so irritating that I was rooting for the freaking wolf! I thought he was a good baddie. Those great big teeth he has and that bogeyman outfit he wears mark him as "evil". It would have been a pleasure to see him catch the little blighters and "wolf"(ha-ha) them down in great bloody chunks! And the bit where the wolf disguises himself as a negative Jewish stereotype-whoa, that is just TERRIBLE that's REALLY gonna bring about the fall of mankind that is(!) If, like me, anyone's watched this rubbish cartoon and not enjoyed it whatsoever, I would suggest you go and watch the final episode of Tales from the Crypt:The Third Pig. It will ease the pain. Ridiculously overrated, I must say. For me it ties with Terrible Toreador as the worst silly symphony that I've seen, it sure sent me squealing all the way home...

zetes As for the censored version the last poster refers to, I've never heard of that, and the supposedly censored version is the one on the new Silly Symphonies DVD. Anyhow, this is one of the most famous of the Silly Symphonies, going so far as to inspire the title for the Edward Albee play (and subsequent Mike Nichols movie) Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?. The music just bops in this short, and kids are likely to bop along to it. It's very funny, and very cute. But note the dark little joke in the corner: there is a picture of the pigs' mom and another of their dad. Mom is a sow with piglets suckling on her. Dad, however, is a line of sausages. You might have missed that one if you were not paying attention. Any you definitely missed it if you saw it as a little kid! 10/10.
