I guess the typical Burton haters are out in full force again.

Hey...at least Disney is staying consistent with their track record of every non-Marvel film being an expensive underperformer/flop.

No-one said anything about a flop. It's tracking well at the moment, despite the reviews.

If the production cost is Disney's usual 200 million plus 100-150 million in P&A costs it's going to have to "track" a lot better than it is if it's going to get even close to breaking even.

I love Burton's aesthetic but he doesn't always marry it with a good film. For every Beetlejuice or Ed Wood there's an Alice in Wonderland and there's no telling in advance what you're gonna get.

It'll be interesting to see how Dumbo turns out but I must say I probably won't see it at a theatre unless the reviews are decent.
