Winnie the Pooh Meets Bambi is another upcoming new Winnie the Pooh crossover film by Daniel Esposito. The main film will appear on Odysee as part of a double feature with its midquel Winnie the Pooh Meets Bambi II in the near future. However, due to inactivity on the project, another, more streamlined, version was released by Remaster Productions on May 5th (Cinco de Mayo) and May 6th, 2022.
Synopsis[]
Winnie the Pooh, Littlefoot, Bugs Bunny, Aladar, Rex, Toaster, Tennessee Tuxedo, and their friends meet a young deer prince named Bambi and they help him learn about life, death, and survival all around the forest.
Plot[]
A doe gives birth to a fawn named Bambi, who will one day take over the position of Great Prince of the Forest, a title currently held by Bambi's father, who guards the woodland creatures against the dangers of hunters. The fawn is quickly befriended by an eager, energetic rabbit named Thumper, who helps to teach him to walk and speak. Bambi grows up very attached to his mother, with whom he spends most of his time. He soon makes other friends, including a young skunk named Flower and a female fawn named Faline. Curious and inquisitive, Bambi frequently asks about the world around him and is cautioned about the dangers of life as a forest creature by his loving mother. One day out in a meadow, Bambi briefly sees The Great Prince but does not realize that he is his father. As the Great Prince wanders uphill, he discovers the human hunter named "Man" by all the animals is coming and rushes down to the meadow to get everyone to safety. Bambi is briefly separated from his mother during that time but is escorted to her by the Great Prince as the three of them make it back in the forest just as Man fires his gun.
During Bambi's first winter, he and Thumper play in the snow while Flower hibernates. One day his mother takes him along to find food when Man shows up again. As they escape, his mother is shot and killed by the hunter, leaving the little fawn mournful and alone. Taking pity on his abandoned son, the Great Prince leads Bambi home as he reveals to him that he is his father. Next year, Bambi has matured into a young stag, and his childhood friends have also entered young adulthood. They are warned of "twitterpation" by Friend Owl and that they will eventually fall in love, although the trio views the concept of romance with scorn. However, Thumper and Flower soon encounter their beautiful romantic counterparts and abandon their former thoughts on love. Bambi himself encounters Faline as a beautiful doe. However, their courtship is quickly interrupted and challenged by a belligerent older stag named Ronno, who attempts to force Faline away from Bambi. Bambi successfully manages to defeat Ronno in battle and earn the rights to the doe's affections.
Bambi is awakened afterward by the smell of smoke; he follows it and discovers it leads to a hunter camp. His father warns Bambi that Man has returned with more hunters. Although Bambi is separated from Faline in the turmoil and searches for her along the way, the two flee to safety. He soon finds her cornered by Man's vicious hunting dogs, which he manages to ward off. Bambi escapes them and is shot by Man, but survives. Meanwhile, at the "Man's" camp, their campfire suddenly spreads into the forest, resulting in a wildfire from which the forest residents flee in fear. Bambi, his father, Faline, and the forest animals manage to reach shelter on a riverbank. The following spring, Faline gives birth to twins under Bambi's watchful eye as the new Great Prince of the Forest.

- In the plot of the original film, despite Man being an offscreen villain, Kronk, Zhane, Korra, Mako, Bolin, and Asami Sato are expected to become Bambi's only six human friends. Jack Skellington does not exactly count since he is a skeleton.
- The Winnie the Pooh series, The Jungle Book, Pinocchio, The Lion King, The Emperor's New Groove, Dinosaur, The Brave Little Toaster, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Bambi were created by Disney.
- The TV show The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was on ABC Saturday Mornings at the time when The Land Before Time was released in theaters and Bambi was re-released in theaters 1988 and both The Land Before Time and Bambi were first released on Home Video in 1989.
- Bambi, Fun and Fancy Free, and The Jungle Book had other home video releases in 1997, the same year that both Pooh's Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin and The Land Before Time V: The Mysterious Island were released straight to video and The Swan Princess: Escape from Castle Mountain was released in selected theaters and then on home video.
- Bambi was first released on DVD in 2005, the same year that Pooh's Heffalump Movie was released in theaters, the DVD releases of both The Swan Princess and The Swan Princess: The Mystery of the Enchanted Treasure were repackaged in a double feature DVD set and The Land Before Time XI: Invasion of the Tinysauruses was first released directly on VHS and DVD.

- Much like the maim film, the ending credits of the Remaster Productions release of the picture features Elton John's version of Circle of Life.
- BrerJake90 was originally going to make this film, but he retired from making anymore Pooh's Adventures films, so Daniel Esposito will make this film instead. However, due to inactivity, the film will instead first be made by Remaster Productions.
- Yru17 originally planned to re-edit a separate Land Before Time crossover with Bambi, but he retired from re-editing anymore crossovers, so Littlefoot and his friends ended up guest starring in this upcoming main film instead. However, due to inactivity, the concept of Littlefoot and his friends guest starring will be scrapped in the Remaster Productions version of the film.
- The original film takes place before Pooh's Adventures of Dante's Peak.
- Another reason why Simba, Littlefoot, and their friends are still to guest star in the main film is because The Lion King, The Land Before Time, and Bambi all share a few plot elements. For instance, the main character lose the parent (Mufasa for Simba, Littlefoot's mother for Littlefoot, and Bambi's mother for Bambi) due to murder (Scar for Mufasa, Sharptooth for Littlefoot's mother, and the offscreen Man for Bambi's mother).
- In the main film, Thumper is revealed to be the nephew of both Rabbit and Bugs.
- This film is currently being made by Remaster Productions, due to inactivity from Daniel Esposito.
