I grew up in the early 2000s, right as VHS was becoming obsolete, but this was one of many that I loved to watch. If there’s anything I love about the internet is that we can preserve beautiful gems like this and watch them over and over till the end of time.
I couldn’t believe I found this last night. It made me cry so much. This is absolutely the best kids story ever created. Everything from the funny toy soldiers, to the fairy bringing the bunny to life. I’m in my 30s and have not seen this since I was 2 or 3. And Christopher Plummer was the perfect pick for a narrator. This is still to this day the best thing I have ever seen.
Does anyone remember a childrens Halloween book or VHS about a jack-o-lantern? It had a very unique art style and almost resembled some parts of Nightmare Before Christmas. My memories of it are very vague and distant.
Rest In Peace Christopher Plummer. You narrated one of my favorite childhood movies of all time besides the Sound of Music.The Velveteen Rabbit really touched my soul though. You gave it that extra magic.
36, myself and I just ran across a the first VHS tape I ever got (along with Rikki Tiki Tavi). "The F.H.E. VHS of "The Velveteen Rabbit". I'm about to show my son and daughter the short. "Toy Story" wasn't the first film about a a toy wanting to be real.
Slippy Jones YES!!!! The toy soldiers in this make me smile. My 9 year old watched this with me! I still have my Velveteen Rabbit stuffed animal. Lol. I LOVED Rikki Tiki Tavi, too!!!!
@@TheLookyus Well, 23 Years ago, Now, would still be in 1997. I believe I was still in Elementary School, probably 2nd Grade? Either that or I saw it in 1997.
Wow. I had this version of The Velveteen Rabbit on VHS cassette tape as a little boy. I played this film over and over again until the tape messed up. Sometimes the tape would get stuck on my VCR and I and my grandmother would drive over to Montgomery Ward for the technicians to fix it. I enjoyed this film very much. I used to get scared of narrator’s description of the older toys being locked away and forgotten. There’s many other versions of this tale, but this one is the best ever. Thanks for posting this cartoon film of The Velveteen Rabbit!
This hit me in the feels so hard. I'm almost 40, and this takes me right back to everything life was like back then, and the morals integrated into this story. One can't help but become flooded with emotion and nostalgia after watching it, even in their adult life. Thank you for sharing this. Everybody needs a good cry now and then.
The original Toy Story. 37 and still gets to me, such a deep story. Added note: Wow.. that scene with the boy being sick and he got better with his rabbit. Reminds me when I was a teen. I have a stuff orca name waawaa (had her since I was 13 and still own her)... and she helped me during the worse time of my life. I was very sick with a deadly parasite (I was very close to losing half of my right leg) and she kept me comfortable while in hospital. Plushies do something to you that keeps you at peace and recover faster. Never underestimate what a hug can do.... even if it's hugging a waawaa.
The toy soldiers' leader with the big thick moustache always cracked me up whenever he got jealous of the Velveteen Rabbit being with the boy. I died laughing at the catapult scene when He was trying to get Jonze into the catapult for a demonstration and Jonze pulls the lever and the boss ends up getting catapulted instead. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My nan recorded this on video. My brother and I used to watch it when we visited her house. We used to call it "the rabbit tape". I'm almost 40 now, and our nan passed away a few years ago. Brings back so many happy memories.
If we are truly lucky in this life we imagine the person that first loved us and brought us to life. Eventually the world gets between us and you must run into the forest but just like the velvetine rabbit viewing the boy from afar we can see that wonderful person in our past for as long as we live. Life will never be the same.
The ending of the book was a bit better then the one here. The boy is actually able to observe the rabbit in the wild, while here it downright ditches the boy. Like come on this boy was the main source of your happiness, and this is how you treat him. I do understand that now that he is fully alive, and that he has a new beginning, but it felt a bit out of place especially when watching this as a kid.
After re-watching this the other day for the first time in probably 25-30 years, I was wondering about this. Is the implication here that the rabbit's memory of the little boy and being a toy has been wiped? He's acting the way a real rabbit would in that situation. And the ending does say that only the Skin Horse knew the truth. It seems like the original story is saying that the rabbit was aware of his past and wanted to see the boy again one last time.
@@Mattrino101 there was a version that was made that same year that had won a few awards. That ending was better as the boy sees the rabbit for one last time, and the rabbit says one last goodbye, and a thanks before leaving off into the wilderness.
I have watched it before when I was a kid. It’s been a long time ago ever since I was in first grade. It finally came back to me just now. The same familiar rabbit doll with a cute little face was always remembered on VHS. I felt like it’s been this way for many years.
I’m 15, and I remember watching this when I was younger. I watched a lot of old kids movies like this when I was really young, probably about 5 years old and this movie I just can’t seem to get out of my head.
I’m almost 40 but every time I see this movie and read the book I blubber like a newborn baby. It’s so sweet and tender and reminds me of my childhood.
💙🔥💙 I actually have a tattoo of The Velveteen Rabbit and also The Little Prince. They were my two favorite books given to me by my great grandmother. Thanks for posting. #OnlyLoveMakesYouReal
That's awesome! I have a vintage animated version of The Little Prince on my channel I bet you havent seen! Check it out! ruclips.net/video/ZTBQmmHtpYg/видео.html
The only version of The velveteen rabbit for me!! I found my old VHS tape earlier and had to come here to see if this animation had been uploaded. Thank you for bringing my childhood back to life
Bro I'm 22 and this movie was one of my favorite VHS's to watch with my Mom. I lost it when the tape wore out from use. It broke my heart as a kid and now I can see it again! Thank you for posting this, you have no idea how much this means to me. I'm actually crying 😭
My childhood in a 24 minute movie! I used to have this on VHS when I was a kid and I missed this. The tears came streaming while I was watching this heartwarming movie. 😢💖
@@lezthestick yeah but there hasn't been any theatrical movie's released just tv and direct to video movies that didn't much attention at least that I know of
@@lezthestick I have the that movie it's a good movie, but it was only realesed from telemarketing to people that's how my grandmother got a copy and how I learned about the story in the first place. Before finding out it was based on a children's book
I remember when my little brother was still young, I made him a sock plush of this rabbit. It was easy to see I had no sewing experience. But, he loved it so much and told me he still has it after all these years.
I remember watching the VHS so many times as a kid, I even remembered some of the lines that the lead toy soldier says. I quote them sometimes and didn't know where I got it from, now I know! I'm now in my 40's. Who else is here Christmas 2021?
I'm only 23 but I remember watching this As a very young child, I've been Searching the Internet for years trying to find this movie and I started crying right as I saw the thumbnail. This is one of the earliest memories I have in my entire life. Thank you for letting this not die to the archives of time.
Thank you for posting this!!! I havent seen this since I was 6. Now 35 and US soldier, Im trying not to cry infront of my mates, lol!!! Thank you for posting this and its entirety. I always loved this movie and I thought it sent a very positive message we have lost in this world. I used to have a pet bunny too and he died, I always cried when I thought about him. He lived 10 years. Now when I see a rabbit around when we are on patrol, I always think of my Molson as a guardian little bunny protecting me like I was 6 again :)
This is one of those little movies that had a major impact on my childhood and character development into who I am today. It's sentimental value is profound and I'm so glad I found this treasure! This one really pulls the tears out.
Thank you so much. I've been looking everywhere for this. It brought about a flood of emotions and a tear to my eye when I finally found this. I grew up with this movie. ❤
Throughout my life I’ve always remembered this horrible traumatic story of a little kids rabbit getting burned in a fire because they got sick. For my entire life anytime I saw a fireplace I would think of this story. Only this week did someone mention the story’s name in passing while talking about bojack horseman. Leading me down the rabbit hole of finding the exact version of the story I saw as a kid. Now I find myself here. Rewatching the very piece of media that spawned this memory. The rabbit was never burned, but it was the first time I had ever imagined something “dying” and that stuck with me. I’m glad this video has a comment section, it’s a pleasure reading these. ❤
When youre a grown ass man and start crying from a children story you watched/read growing up. Also I got a stuffed rabbit when I was a newborn that i loved on like in the story. Still have it in the house.
The fairy song and the coming to life part gets me every single time I haven't watched this movie in a long time and just the pure nostalgia, the horse, the soldiers, the train, the tank, everything, and I seen the other versions but this is the best one
You can just tell the animation for this cartoon was outsourced in South Korea it has a very Anime (esque) feeling to it. It reminds me a lot of that one re-telling of the 3 Little Pigs which was animated using Traditional Japanese Hand Drawn animation the kind you'd see from stuff like Speed Racer and Astro Boy very old school 60's style anime technique to tell a modern western tale.
I had this on VHS a long time ago. Unfortunately, our VCRs stopped working and we gave away most of the VHS's. We finished giving away our VHS Tapes just last week. I miss the old technology. Those were the good old days. I feel the nostalgia.
19:18-19:20 Oh the poor toys being burned including the clockwork mouse, Lion ,Clown and the jack in the box. Glad the Rocking Horse and the soldiers survived though
I am now 31. 32 Next February. I have not seen this since I was a very young kid in the 90's. Mom used to rent it for me all the time at the local movie rental place which is sadly no longer there.
Whether dealing with loss, broken relationships, or many other issues, this story really did transcend the childhood audience it was intended for. Thank you.
I’m 39 and am I’m bawling like a baby (dang onion cutting ninjas.) Thank you for posting this I had this on VHS and the velveteen rabbit or teen rabbit as I use to call it was my favorite story
I'm literally watching this for the first time in 30 years. It's amazing how so many images and phrases were embedded in my memory, but watching this as an adult makes it so surreal. 😳😄😄
I remember I used to watch this on VHS whenever I would visit my grandparents when I was little. This story will always be very close to my heart. ❤️❤️❤️
I remember my mom renting me a lot of VHS tapes based on children books. Harold and the Purple Crayon being one of them. Me and my mom would spend time watching them. This movie she bought for me, and it came with a rabbit from the movie, which sadly was lost in a move. I came here because I wanted to remember. My mom is still around but our relationship isn't as close anymore, I think my lack of children compared to my sister is a reason. I miss being a kid. But I love my mom and always will, but sometimes it can be lonely. This movie is a nice memory.

I remember I used to watch this on VHS whenever I would visit my grandparents when I was little. This story will always be very close to my heart. ❤️❤️❤️
I guess the skin horse never became real because he wasn't as loved as the rabbit... So sad...
Omg bring back so many memories I forgot about this I was like 5 or 6 when I watched this now I’m 26
I remember my mom renting me a lot of VHS tapes based on children books. Harold and the Purple Crayon being one of them. Me and my mom would spend time watching them. This movie she bought for me, and it came with a rabbit from the movie, which sadly was lost in a move. I came here because I wanted to remember. My mom is still around but our relationship isn't as close anymore, I think my lack of children compared to my sister is a reason. I miss being a kid. But I love my mom and always will, but sometimes it can be lonely. This movie is a nice memory.
Had this as a kid in the 80s i wore out the vhs tape.❤
Thank You for this❤💯 Its come back into my life at just the right now. I appreciate this story so much❤
