To think the new Paddington bear lacks a certain something

The trailers are on TV. Is it me or does the celebrated bear lacks a certain cuddly quality. Rather a pointy nose and slender midriff for someone who is, essentially, a teddy bear?

Only seen the tv ad for the film, but Paddington looks very much as if he bites! Rupert Bear always looked slightly sinister too.

No wellies? I can just about cope with the lack of cuddle factor and intermittent wearing of the duffle coat, but no wellies! Next someone will tell me that marmalade sandwiches are unsuitable food for a bear.

Paddington Bear didn't wear wellies in the original books, it was only in the later animated tv series that they were introduced. This is a fact that has stuck in my mind for many years...confused
