Dumbo (2019)

 

 You've seen a belly flop! You've seen the Fosbury flop! But you'll have seen two precious hours of your life wasted if you see Tim Burton's Disney remake flop from 2019. The story of an elephant with big ears that somehow causes everyone to be an unrelenting dick, we examine one of Disney's many CGI updates that really didn't seem necessary, and discuss the original Dumbo's questionable credentials.
