I haven't seen the new Tim Burton version of Dumbo and if I do, I doubt it will be in a theater. A darker, longer, live-action version of the original simply holds no appeal for me.
I find my tastes are generally in sync with Leonard Maltin and he didn't like it. Then again, he loved Stan & Ollie which I didn't like so maybe I should go see the new Dumbo…
Nah. I don't think so. Still, reading online reviews, I'm kinda amazed how much the people who liked it liked it and how much the people who hated it hated it. That intrigues me a little but not enough to get me to a Cineplex. End of Quick Comment.
