I guess Tim got tired of his wacky fuckboy Johnny Depp's boypussy.

Ear jokes incoming

As one of the nigger crows?

So that's it huh, we some kinda Disney Presents Tim Burton's DUMBO

Johnny's fucking his ex

He better perform a new clean rap for the soundtrack.

Are there any monkeys in this film? Haven't seen it in a long time.

Didn't you just read who'll star in it?

Am I having a stroke?

next stop MCU and freedom from the shit heap that is DC

>Wiki-wawa
>Uh, wiki-wawa
>HAHA

>Yeah, check it out, Dumbo's my name
>But ya'll might know me as the Flying Elephant
>Yeah, high above the world, everyone else look like ants
>No wackier sight, other than maybe a bear wearing pants

>WHOOO
>Haha

>Live-Action

Boy, what a steaming pile of shitty negativity this thread is.

The crows will probably be omitted due to political correctness or they'll be given British accents or something.

Is there a single animated Disney movie that they aren't going to remake in live-action?

...

Atlantis. :ยด(

Why would there ever need to be a Dumbo remake
why

Probably the ones that didn't do financially well, like atlantis or treasure planet.

>eat shit like me and like it!

Isn't name and elephant supposed to rhyme?

>Depiction of a black gang from the depression era is seen as offensive
>Depiction of a black gang today is seen as acceptable, even if it uses way more negative stereotypes

Never change, society.

Dude it's not cool to make fun of his ears like that

You know exactly what he was cast for.

First thing I literally thought of was the crows.

Dude, even Black Cauldron is getting a live reboot

>British accents or something.
There is a way around this

Home on the Range

I actually wouldn't mind seeing a Live Action Pinocchio Movie

Even better, replace them with modern black entertainers and let the movie end with a pop song and all the characters dancing.

Prydain books are getting a new adaptation, which probably won't be like The Black Cauldron film at all.

>treasure planet
They better fucking for pic related alone.

So, seriously, he's going to be playing the mouse, right?

Go watch Little Otik.

McFarlene please

>the actress' costume is worse than all the cool cosplay ones.
that or CGI.

You say that as if CGI grills weren't fuckable.

What

But will smith is the whitest black guy around. They should pick someone who fits the stereotype better

It exists, the Jonathan Taylor Thomas film from the 90s is fucking brilliant iirc

Just watch Stargate, or better, watch Stargate sg1

tim burton..... + dumbo?

tim burton + dumbo?

>tim burton
+
>dumbo

wha

>live action dumbo
what the fuck
>directed by tim burton
what the fuck
>starring will smith
what the fuck

But every animated animation on earth today has a character talking like a black sassy woman

Expect his oh so unique style of making everything shitty and weird so it distracts from the story and becomes an eyesore. I'm sure hot topic will make a good profit selling shirts of it.

How the fuck do you make a live action dumbo

there are more than enough already

Kids need to know

You're trying waay too hard.

What a fresh new idea.

Well, if I know anything about Tim Burton, it will involve millions of black & white spirals.

Apparently they're making a live-action Lion King movie.
There's not even any humans in that shit. Atleast with the Jungle Book you still had Mowgli be played by an actual kid.
I don't get it.

Is this because of those big ear jokes from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air?

>Johnny's fucking his ex
Bonham Carter? The number of films Burton had them play a couple I wouldn't have thought that would be a deal breaker for him. I always assumed he was angling for a 3-way.

And it's probably going to be brought to attention that Dumbo is deformed (not "he looks silly" like how the original movie handled it, actual "he's got a genetic mutation" shit) and probably going to have some elephants being murdered at some point.

Because whimsical childrens movies are for fucking pussies.

>tfw Danny Elfman will score this piece of shit
>tfw a Danny Elfman produced Will Smith rap will never become real

Why would they not

Double the money

Pink Elephants on Parade gonna fuck you up man

>all the elephants in the circus are Asian, with tiny ears
>Dumbo has large ears, like an African one
Really makes you think.

>Donald_duck.webm

His father was one of the worker elephant bulls.

And that's will smiths character and they'll lock him up instead of his mother.

Wait they're finally giving the series a proper adaptation?

He'll be the mouse that helps dumbo

>Tim Burton
>Will Smith
>Dumbo movie
Could your expectations be any lower for this movie?

I'd watch a Burton-directed Pinocchio movie

>Jaden plays the lead

Burton?

Does this mean it will be some kind of nightmare Freak Circus where every animal has some kind of abnormality like giant ears?

And I'm pretty sure the pink elephants sequence will be there too...in claymation

Why are these artsy types such degenerates?

>listen to old DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince
>actually really like it
>he gets popular
>can't rap unless Nas is writing everything for him

Probably this

Expect Dumbo to fit perfectly in a circus with things like short necked giraffes, orange spotted gorillas, two headed lions, and giant nosed ostriches.

Well the crows be in it?

Disney Horned King is the most iconic part of the entire property. You can bet that no matter what happens, he's still gonna be depicted as some kinda Lich dude instead of a guy wearing antlers in Disney's new series.

Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they BS some way out of being True Name'd by Gwydion and they end up replacing the lich in Taran Wanderer with him.

>will smith is the whitest black guy around
Come on now.

as a crow?

>Will Smith Will Star

2017s hottest new anime

Why are blue collar fucks such prudes?

Brian Gumbel makes Wayne Brady look like Malcolm X

Does Will Smith need even MORE money?

We obviously need more movies where he plays the same guy.

this is just retarded...you ever been to truck-stop bathroom?

He's also not an actor. Might aswell bring up Colin Powell and Grant Hill at that point.

...

That's not what a joke is.

How fucking young are you?

it's funny how it's still okay to refer to behaviors and speech patterns as black or white
