Three Little Pigs Trailers

The two pigs building houses of hay and sticks scoff at their brother, building the brick house. But when the wolf comes around and blows their houses down (after trickery like dressing as a foundling sheep fails), they run to their brother's house. And throughout, they sing the classic song, "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?".

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Three Little Pigs (1933)**** (out of 4)Disney's adaptation of the Grimm fairly tale is certainly one of the highlights of their early animated films. The story is pretty simple as three pigs are building a house. The two who builds it out of straw and sticks are free to play around more but the one building with brick has to work even harder. The two lazy pigs think it's quite funny until a wolf shows up and their lack of work comes back to haunt them.THREE LITTLE PIGS is certainly one of the best animated shorts from this era of Disney and it's amazing when you think of the fact that when people think of the story, their ideas come from this short and not the Grimm tale. That says quite a bit because the story itself was quite popular before this short but ever since it was released people think of this short when the idea of three little pigs come along. The animation is as great as you'd expect and there's no question that there's a certain flow in the story that just makes it irresistible. Fans of Disney and animation will certainly love and remember this one.

I remember as a kid reading and flipping thru the pages of the classic storybook "Three Little Pigs". I highly enjoyed it as it taught good moral lessons of hard work, courage, and to be prepared and ready when danger strikes always be alert! I as a kid was even afraid of the big bad wolf! So it was a real treat when I just recently watched the 8 minute Disney short. It's one of Disney's best animated classics. It moves along beautifully by the sounds and singing of the three pigs saying "Who's Afraid of the big bad wolf"? And remember I'll huff and puff and blow down your house! Anyway the wicked wolf begins his journey thru the wooded landscape towards the pigs dwellings. And the first two pigs who are both laid back and take things as a joke clearly are not concerned with the wolf and both put up their new homes. One made of straw the other of sticks, yet after the wolf huffs and puffs and blows down their houses, the two seek shelter and protection with their brother the third pig and this serious and hard working swine very wisely made his home of bricks! So no matter how much huffing and puffing this house will not be blown down.Overall this is one great memorable classic a Disney favorite it teaches the morals that can be applied in life like being clever, and smart plus with a little hard work one will be protected as you will not fall prey to the evil traps and destruction of your shelter! "Three Little Pigs" is an entertaining classic and educational for the lessons it teaches.

Disney's THE THREE LITTLE PIGS is a classic and I remember watching and loving it as a child. In some ways the film isn't as good as I remember and in other ways it's far more impressive. As far as the story goes, it's much more tame than I'd remembered and this was disappointing. According to the older story by Grimm, after the two foolish pigs' homes are destroyed, they are eaten AND when the wolf goes down the chimney, he is made into stew and eaten by the wise pig!! I was actually hoping for this, as the tame Disney version didn't appeal as much to the sadistic child living within me! However, even with an overly tame approach, there is still a lot to love about the film. In particular, I marveled at the newly restored print as the colors are so vivid and inviting. Additionally, as a child I never noticed that the artwork was simply amazing--especially the great painted backgrounds. It's nearly the equal of the later full-length films such as SNOW WHITE or PINOCCHIO--it's that good.Overall, it's a lovely little film that will appeal to all but mostly to kids. Unfortunately, I don't know of any gritty versions available today because too many parents are afraid it'll traumatize the kids. What's wrong with a little trauma?! Give me the moralistic and bloodier version every time!By the way, a decade later, Looney Tunes essentially stole the idea of this cartoon in the form of PIGS IN A POLKA. However, despite being Oscar nominated, PIGS IN A POLKA isn't nearly the film THE THREE LITTLE PIGS and never gained classic status.

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.
