Can ‘Dumbo' Be Tim Burton's Artistic Comeback?

March 24, 2019 Jordan Ruimy

In the late 80s and all through the 90s Tim Burton found a way to make personal movies and, somehow, found a way to make them mainstream successes. Movies like “Edward Scissorhands,” “Ed Wood” and “Sleepy Hollow” were unique and different but struck a chord with the moviegoing public and critics. However, in the past 15 years or so, Burton has resorted to directing commercial movies that just don’t resemble those earlier, more personal projects.

Spring Movie, err, Preview?

February 6, 2019 Jordan Ruimy
Screen-Shot-2018-12-25-at-9.13.57-AM.png

I, quite honestly, can’t help but think that for most of the Spring I’ll have to sit back, at the comfort of my own home, and catch up with a bunch of gems from the ‘40s and ‘50s. With the exception of J.C. Chandor’s “Triple Frontier” (March 13th) and Jordan Peele’s “Us” (March 21st) I have absolutely no excitement for the slate of studio films coming out between now until the end of April. I mean, unless you’re pumped for “Captain Marvel” (March 7th), “Dumbo” (March 29th) and “Avengers: Endgame” (April 26th), this is going to be a very stale season for cinephiles until Cannes kicks off in May. Maybe I should just go to SXSW.

Tim Burton's 2010 adaptation of “Alice in Wonderland” earned over $1 billion at the global box office.  It also cemented his 21st-century reputation as the go-to-director for classic children's fantasy.  That's his thing now: "Alice," "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children" and now "Dumbo."
