Dumbo
I don't know very much about Dumbo, to tell you the truth. I didn't watch the original movie very much at all when I was a kid. I know he's a flying elephant in a circus. Early reviews are not all that enthusiastic.
Personally, I won't be lining up to see this movie. But I really respect Tim Burton, and a lot of the cast here. It's not my thing, but if it appeals to you, I don't think it looks disappointing.
There's a reason I don't like Dumbo. I have somewhat prominent ears. They fit my head nicely now, but they've always been that size and my head has not. I know pretty much every kid in the world gets teased by other kids, but for me personally, the word "Dumbo" does not have good memories attached to it. Who knows, maybe seeing this movie and forming some positive memories around Dumbo would be cathartic for me or something.
Dumbo is rated PG for peril/action, some thematic elements, and brief mild language.

P.S. There's a GIANT post in the works on a different topic. It's turning out to be really long. So get ready for that.
