History WesternAnimation / TheNewAdventuresOfPeterRabbit

* AdaptationalSpeciesChange: For whatever reason, Tommy Brock is changed from a BadOlBadger into a grouchy hedgehog in this movie, making it rather odd that he’s treated like some kind of threat to the protagonists.

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Despite the movie clocking in at under 50 minutes, Peter and Benny get joined by no less than five travel companions, none of which gets much characterization and half of them don’t even get any real motivation for coming along. We also get three separate antagonists who then randomly team up at the very end. And lastly, while Peter already had three sisters in the original books (Mopsy, Flopsy, and Cottontail) who all appear here, the movie adds a ''fourth one'' (Hopsy).

* AmbiguousSituation: Given the movie’s short runtime and having LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters, many of Peter’s travel companions [[FlatCharacter are underdeveloped as characters]] and aren’t given a very clear reason for joining him. This is most notable with Trevor T. Tittlemouse, the first of the travel buddies to be introduced, who talks and acts like a ConMan and keeps telling BlatantLies, as if he’s trying to bamboozle Peter and Benny, but he does nothing of the sort throughout the movie and just joins up with them despite gaining nothing from it.

* AdaptationalHeroism: [=Mr. McGregor=] is far nicer than his book counterpart. As a matter of fact, when he finds Peter’s sisters in his mailbox, he lets them out and simply warns them to avoid his [[CatsAreMean mean cat]], and he outright says that he doesn’t like rabbit stew.

** But then, when Benny asks what’s for dinner, Mr. Todd replies with “baked rabbit”. [[TooDumbToLive Not getting the memo]], Benny responds with, “[[ImAHumanitarian I’ve never had it but I try to keep an open mind when it comes to food. I’ll try anything once]].”

* AdaptationalDumbass: Most of the characters suffer this to some extent but none more so than Mr. Tod, who goes from a [[CunningLikeAFox classic cunning fox]] to basically a ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' villainous predator, with Peter easily saving Benny from the fox’s clutches by claiming that he’s the “rabbit inspector” and that Benny is over the weight limit for consumption, which Mr. Tod buys without question.

* SurpriseCreepy: Despite the otherwise lighthearted tone, Benny’s initial encounter with Mr. Tod has some [[BlackComedy rather dark humor]].

* NoNameGiven: In-universe example with the squirrel and chipmunk character, as at the end, Peter introduces them to his mother as “the squirrel” and “chipmunk”. Especially weird with the former, [[Literature/TheTaleOfSquirrelNutkin since there is a well-known squirrel character from the original books called Nutkin]].[=McGregor=]’s cat is also never given a proper name (even his owner never refers to him by name).

''The New Adventures of Peter Rabbit'' (or just ''Peter Rabbit'', or alternatively ''Reggie Rabbit'') is a 1995 AnimatedAdaptation of ''Literature/TheTaleOfPeterRabbit'' by Creator/BeatrixPotter, made by Creator/GoldenFilms. The titular rabbit (voiced by Creator/CamClarke) is a CompulsiveLiar, who seemingly gets his four sisters accidentally mailed to Zanzibar, so he and his [[FatComicRelief cousin Benny]] (Creator/JeffBennett) embark on a quest to save Peter’s sisters, picking up a lot of companions along the way, and running into a few antagonists (likewise from Potter’s books).

* BigBadEnsemble: [=McGregor=]’s cat, Tommy Brock, and Mr. Tod all appear as antagonists at different points in the movie, and at the end, they [[VillainTeamUp team up]] to get payback on Peter by catching all his friends in a BagOfKidnapping, though they get easily defeated via comedic high jinks once Peter frees the others.

* AdaptationalDumbass: Most of the characters suffer this to some extent but none more so than Mr. Tod, who goes from a [[CunningLikeAFox classic cunning fox]] to basically a WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes predator, with Peter easily saving Benny from the fox’s clutches by claiming that he’s the “rabbit inspector” and that Benny is over the weight limit for consumption, which Mr. Tod buys without question.
