Tim Burton is bringing Dumbo the elephant back to life this year in a live-action adaptation featuring a bunch of human actors played by Danny Devito, Michael Keaton, Colin Farrell and more. The original is a Disney classic, but it seems like a lot of people might not remember it. It definitely raises a lot of questions. Like what’s up with the storks all delivering baby animals on the same exact night? Why are some of the songs so blatantly offensive? Why do Dumbo and Timothy Q Mouse drink so much?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the pitch meeting that led to Dumbo! It’s super easy, barely an inconvenience!

Most of Disney movies were like that, little story, fill it with as many songs and wacky gags as possible, see Cinderella, snow white... My favorite Disney movie (sleeping beauty) takes almost half of the movie to show the actual sleeping beauty.

It might not have much of a "plot" but I think it has some very emotional moments and nice messages. Like the way mothers need their children as much as their children need them, the philosophy of turning a weakness around into a strength and looking on the positive side, the way a symbol or totem can help you gain confidence (Dumbo's feather), etc. I think it's very insightful, if you're paying attention.

@Torchy Brown Actually the Civil Rights Act of 1866 first made blacks full citizens of the USA. After this was overturned by the Supreme Court in the infamous Dred Scott case, the 14th amendment was enacted, giving blacks full citizenship. This was followed by the 15th amendment in 1870 which ensured them the right to vote. Furthermore, the first black U.S. Senator was Hiram Revels, elected in 1870. Blanche K. Bruce was also a black U.S. Senator, serving from 1875 to 1881. (BTW, both of these Senators were Republicans.) These are facts, not "whitewashing history".
@raydunakin 5 жыл бұрын
@Torchy Brown I notice that you have ignored the 14th and 15th amendments, which did in fact make blacks full citizens under the law. This is more than enough to disprove your original statement that "blacks were slaves in the 1800s, we were not Americans."

This was the first film I saw aged 6 and can remember getting quite upset at how cruel the other animals were to Dumbo and had to be persuaded that the second half had a happy ending. The crows were a scream.
