Awww, it's Dumbo! I hadn't seen this movie since I was a kid watching on those clamshell VHS tapes. I upgraded it to blu-ray when it was released from the vault and holy shit, it looks fantastic. It's also way shorter than I remember, coming it at 63 minutes. That is a very little time to pack a whole lot of memories.
A stork delivers a baby elephant to a circus. He is soon revealed to have enormous ears for his size, causing him to become the butt of jokes. After his mother retaliates against some human bullies and is locked away, Dumbo is taken care of by Timothy J. Mouse. Timothy wants Dumbo to be recognized for the special creature that he is and with a little help from a magic feather, the two realize unrivaled heights of achievement.
Seriously, who out there has never seen Dumbo? You better have been raised by a weird cult. Otherwise, there's no excuse. This is a fucking classic and it deserves a place on your shelf.
