Just asking questions without thinking further

To be honest, what I saw was very uncomfortable. Animals shouldn't be imprisoned, and all living beings are equal. This was my first thought, so the first half of the plot felt uncomfortable. I've been looking forward to higher-level things, and although they were freed later, they were simple, crude and sloppy. The second reason is that the boundary between fairy tales and reality has not been handled properly. Many settings and plots are fine in the context of fairy tales, but they are very strange in reality, but you know, he wants to explore reality. In fact, there are a lot of images and ingenuity, raising issues of freedom and equality, struggle for freedom, family, love, trust and protection, etc. However, just raising them does not constitute thinking and discussion. This is the note I was writing when I read it

The line "no body wants to be alone" is good. Why should there be a circus? Animal performance? Trading? This is the foundation of everything. I'm thinking of what it's going to explore with this setting, there's probably a number, it's boring. I'm looking forward to something higher, but I know that no one is using him to make money. "Queen of the Sky" her eyes are also full of shrewdness and utilitarianism, although later... (Unreal 1. The boy is not young Now, still sleeping at the feet of a woman I haven't known for a long time? All relationships are about money, capital, deep insecurities, all encouragement, "he can do it" is successful, I just feel sad and shouldn't, He shouldn't have been imprisoned in the first place, and he shouldn't have obeyed this rule and used this method to fight. His innocent eyes are beautiful, moving, and uncomfortable. Every time he takes off in a dangerous situation, the more successful he is, the more Makes me angry and unreal 2. Does anyone really care about him? Even those two kids?? The girl is very calm (I know it's related to the character but still~) (So the fairy tale setting? Shouldn't human life be the most important thing? Are you still blaming? Cultural differences between China and the West? Highlighting capital and utility, highlighting the cruelty of reality? (Fairy tale setting? Nightmare Island, a suffocating place, imprisoned, loss of freedom, unfair, unequal, self-righteous human beings, hurry up and go extinct You have to learn to grow up alone. The famous circus boss was abandoned by her father, the little girl lost her mother when she was young, and her father lost his arm in the war, and became a circus performer. It is not easy for everyone, We are not living in a fairy tale. (The reality setting is unreal 3. The male protagonist is in danger, the female protagonist is not worried? It is about to fall! (The fairy tale sets the circus boss crazy,,, is it worth it? So Irrational? (So it's a fairy tale setting again? I don't know where the boundary between fairy tales and reality is in this film? I don't think it's a successful combination of the little elephant's feather, the girl's key to freedom, equality, love, struggle, family environment, Trust, guardianship, love are all involved, but it is very simple, just asking questions, It's not enough for me to think and discuss, let alone get enlightenment "miracle will happen believe me they do" at the end is really simple and rude to forcibly raise the level, the "higher thing" I expected, it gave, but it's not as good as No, it's really embarrassing. Because of the above reasons, all kinds of plots made me uncomfortable, so my tears were also very strange. In fact, there is really nothing to cry about in this film, but I don't think it should be. Why? It's too easy, so small As soon as the elephant flew up, I cried. I cried two or three times.... He shoved the last picture straight into his heart, free, grand, and natural. The baby elephant's ears are stronger and stronger, and when opened, it looks like a little butterfly from the ReFa beauty instrument haha

the end…

It's still warm, but it's too old-fashioned and superficial

    Burton's essay for Disney's thesis is very orthodox old school. The original 64-minute "Dumbo" did not fly with ears until the last ten minutes. The first half of the new version was copied almost as it was, and the second half expanded the new story direction, maintaining the original tone and spirit. Wendeville has a line: "You let me Back to childhood again!” In addition, Burton painted hundreds of original paintings for Disney Pictures’ "Legend of the Black Pot" in the early years, but one was useless; after filming "Little Frankenstein" he was fired by Disney management. . It’s interesting to return to Disney to film Dumbo this time. The villain "Windeville" and his playground in the film feel like the dark side of Disney and Disneyland. His annexation of the Medici Circus is also quite "realistic." Of it. In the end, it burned the playground, so cruel!

    Disney's endlessly mediocre remakes... true industry sinners...

Dumbo quotes

  • Max Medici: Welcome to the Medici Family circus where we believe no wild animals shall be held in captivity.

  • Holt Farrier: [as he, Milly, and Joe slowly approach Dumbo, hiding underneath a pile of straw] Don't be scared.

    [diminishing to a whisper as he squats down in front of the straw pile]

    Holt Farrier: Don't be scared now; your momma's right outside.
