Charlotte's Web 2 - Wilbur's Great Adventure [VHS]
Spinning a yarn that begins where the 30-year-old original concluded,Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Great Adventurereturns to Zuckerman's farm  for more endearing pig tales. Faint-hearted Wilbur preserves his dear friend  Charlotte's memory by befriending the lone black sheep of the farm. When a trip  to the county fair separates the comrades, Wilbur musters his courage to find  his frightened woolly pal. Along the way, a sticky encounter with a beehive  leaves Wonder Pig looking more like Feral Pig... and suddenly Wilbur is to blame  for a hungry fox's doings. Charlotte's three sprightly daughters save the day,  despite amateur weaving abilities. Preserving the quiet pace and beautiful  watercolor look of the original, this animated 75-minute show should appeal to  new fans. But adults who fondly recall many bittersweet moments shared by  Charlotte and Wilbur, and timeless songs like "Mother Earth and Father Time,"  might feel slightly cheated.
