  • I have no good justification for the video title other than that while watching Tim Burton's masterpiece DUMBO (2019) I was struck by the idea of calling a video "DUMBO SLAPS" and try as I might I couldn't remove it from my mind.

      Creativity is isolating - it separates audiences. Big money productions are always about aiming at the lowest, most common taste - they have to be since their expense requires massive returns. When the money spent to produce a work of art goes up, creativity must go down. This isn't to say that creativity can't survive Capitalism, only that creativity in mass-produced culture can't survive it. Look in the smaller spaces.

  • @YokiDokiPanic
    @YokiDokiPanic 5 ปีที่แล้ว +124

    The biggest difference direction-wise is the literal perspective of how the shots are set up. In the original, we see nearly everything from the line of sight of a baby elephant. So we don't see much of the human characters; it's mostly feet. (They did the same thing with Lady and the Tramp.) So the human characters make even less sense when you realize they had to ignore the very basic artistic setup of the original. It's like Tim Burton didn't even understand why the original was shot the way it was.

      I'm sure he did, but he also wanted to make a movie to express what he wanted.

    I saw Dumbo! And I came to the EXACT same conclusion you did about the girl's direction. Tim Burton seems to think the way to portray a "mature, intuitive" child is to make them a toneless, expressionless robot that spews exposition and sometimes says "mysterious" things the adults just don't understand because they aren't as "in tune" with the world. Some of the cuts to her face during tense moments were downright painful. Dumbo is teetering on a platform above the audience, and the camera cuts to her just looking up at him like :|

    Late to the Jenny Nicholson party, but very glad I stumbled across this TH-camr. Very unique, bright, comfy, and funny. Crazy attention to detail on the most obscure of details, yet manages to make them relatable and humorous.
    Oddly, kind of reminds me of the wit of MST3K during its heyday.

    The only time I've been to a circus was on my birthday a couple years ago (I think it was when the Barnum and Bailey & Ringling Bros. Circus was doing its final shows?), and I LOVED. IT. Honestly, I wasn't expecting what we got because it wasn't _just_ a bunch of fun acts with animal trainers and ice skaters. No, it was a bunch of acts tied together with SONGS. IT WAS A FRICKIN MUSICAL AND IT WAS AMAZING.
    Edit: They also had this really nice booklet about all the performers and how they stopped putting elephants in the show to instead help efforts to revive the elephant population. It was pretty sweet.

      @Thread Bomb It’s not that there’s suddenly loads of them, but that they are weirdly redeeming things that don’t deserve their good reputation. The greatest showman glorifies a man who, even by the standards of the time, was cruel, exploitative and racist. And this film glorified the circus as a place of whimsy, even though in the original, the circus was NOT a good place.

    coming back to this video years later to inform you of something very important. a new coworker of mine's dad actually owns a travelling circus and she spent a most of her early life travelling and performing, and so i jokingly asked her that whole thing about running away to join the circus, and she deadass said it *is* kind of a scandal when someone leaves to just go get a 9-5 job and that when she was small she just wanted to go to school like a regular kid. so uh, kids run away from the circus to join the office
