Sounds like it will be similar to the live-action Smurfs movie.

It would have been better if Christopher Robin traveled to the 100 Acre Wood again as an adult instead of the stuffed animals coming to life in the real world.
thats the first thing that I thought of... Smurfs, the Chipmunk films and that atrocious new Peter Rabbit movie, where cute CGI critters wreak havoc on an unsuspecting adult but at the end teach him a lesson about life.
Peter Rabbit looks absolutely awful. The funny thing is that I remember that Beatrix Potter refused to give the rights over to Disney for a film adaptation because she thought they would butcher the character. That ended up happening anyway though.

No Tigger, but Dustin Hoffman and Martin Short have turned down the role.
well thank goodness, though this move is already staring to sound questionable anyway...
Thank goodness for no Dustin Hoffman. Disney doesn't need any more associations like that.

oh geez, him too?

He hasn't had a sexual harassment or sexual assault scandal. He has been identified as a cheating dirtbag though who lost a lot of fans especially after his Golden Globes speech where he thanked both his wife and his new paramour. The Star Wars prequels will be very difficult to stomach now with him onscreen, although I know with or without him, most people already share that sentiment.
