yeah i forgot about that too

I can't say I am too excited for this live action take of "Dumbo" he is doing, but I will wait until we see an actual trailer. Plus, Michael Keaton is returning to Burton-World in it so that in itself is pretty cool.

Doesn't sound fun

They have had something called Cinema Con in Las Vegas this past day or two. One segment included an early look at Tim's "Dumbo" movie. Now, nothing official has been released, but one movie site I follow said they were thoroughly impressed with what they saw.

Oh, I am sure I will see it but not in the theater. Tim's movies haven't been up there with his best in a long time, really. I do have hopes that this is one that returns to the magic of his earlier works. I am still a huge fan, but he hasn't made much in the last several years that would rival his earlier stuff. "Sleepy Hollow" was the last one of his I actually saw in the theater.

I see what you are saying.
