It’s funny how when Pirates of the Carribean came out, everybody was upset about Sparrow shooting a seagull in the opening scene. Something about the oh-so innocent and pure Disney stepping out of line... When nearly 80 years ago they made a baby elephant get PTSD after suffering through its own hellish version of Mean Girls.
I sick and tried of hearing culture appropriation too, These people want diverse characters and stories but only people of that culture can tell it. So I as a Hispanic can’t tell Cinderella because I am not French. Oh and crows were mostly voice be black actors.
Tsk! I like the Crows. They have a catchy song, looked cool and actually Helped Dumbo at the end in a movie where no one but his mom and Timothy, and even then it was just small support. I know now some kind of racist things about them, but i never saw that growing up: i saw a Murder of Crows feel bad, sing a catchy song and help the poor baby Dumbo. Is that so wrong?
I mean I kinda agree the only way I see it super racist is if white or another race that wasn't African Americans did the voice I mean I don't think they made them sound that way, though I still bet they didn't get paid as much as the white actors now *thats* racist
@@mckstellar1005 oh no, I'm not saying there wasn't any heavy racism going on behind the scenes of this, but... i just want to think that someone reworked them to be not as racist~ you know?
So I'm starting to think Whitney is being tortured by nerd wire. Nerd wire please allow Whiyney to do videos she likes before she breaks and kills the lot of you or gives up on humanity and shuts down completely. Just let her do a video of her dressings her dog up as a super hero or something. People will still like and watch the videos as long as Whitney's in it so why not keep her happy instead of torturing her. Just a suggestion
The stork was late because dumbo was a cross breed between an African elephant and an Asian elephant. there are complications with cross breeds. This is also why his ears are so big.
I mean elephants don't usually see their fathers namely because male elephants just mate n leave in the wild...HOWEVER pt Barnum did own an elephant called jumbo so it's possible tht either Dumbos circus is actually suppose to be Barnums circus after jumbo passed away OR like wotso videos said perhaps this circus reached out to Barnum to get him to breed jumbo and Dumbos mom.
Okay Whit- let’s figure out why Disney is so weird about elephants! My literal only lead: I once went to an absinthe bar riddled with pink elephant imagery. So, is this a chicken or egg scenario? (Which shall henceforth be known as an absinthe or elephant scenario)
Dumbo was my favorite movie growing up. Call it racist, cuz it was...SPOLER ALERT! Everyone was racist in 1940. But I actually find the racism funny (in a "Oh my gods, I can't believe the stuff they could get away with back then; half laughing at the past, half cringing sort of way). I also have vivid memories of the hallucination scene scaring me as a child. This movie is still one of my favorits. Also, I'm gonna sing "Baby mine" to my kids in the future.
If you look at the pink elephant part it really doesn't fit in with the movie and it goes on a little to long I understand he's drunk but it should have been shorter or something else
I literally love this movie so much. My favorite movies of all time are. Dumbo and Shrek. And of course I cried at the awful and traumatic scenes but I guess I may have related to Dumbo and that's where my empathy started to come from. I'm always going to love this movie but you can't turn a blind eye to the disgusting racist stereotypes and straight up abuse. It's not okay. But as a kid seeing that there was a happy ending made me happy. I guess I just related to the movie as a crybaby and sensitive kid. And plus the elephants on parade song was a bop. I loved that song lol. Maybe I am crazy?
QUESTION WHY DO THEY CALL HIM DUMBO WHEN AN ELEPHANT NEVER FORGETS , JUMBO IS SO ADORABLE ALSO CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE MOVIE CINDERELLA AND HOW IT IS RUINED
Bro this shit was my favorite fucking movie. I remember there’s one part that Dumbo was drunk and start seeing shit that part scared the shit out of me so bad that I’ll be looking at the tv like “wtf is going?” 🤣🤣

They may have been racist stereotypes but the crows were the best part of the movie and I’m saying this as a black guy
With *Jumbo himself (& his mother) !
Mainly because they were the only characters Dumbo deals with outside of his mother and Timothy who are aren't total butts
I sick and tried of hearing culture appropriation too, These people want diverse characters and stories but only people of that culture can tell it. So I as a Hispanic can’t tell Cinderella because I am not French. Oh and crows were mostly voice be black actors.
@@MrSophire culture appropriation dosent exist
WW2 is just sad and racism is just a pain
Weird how they made a movie about a baby elephant who got lost into a deep look on about separation and racism. Thanks Nerdwire
The pink elephant song used to scare the shit out of me when I was young

@@crcoghill I looked it up its even worse behind the scenes the main crow was white o,0
True, but at least they did get a classically trained black spiritual singer Hall Johnson and his choir to voice the others crows and the song
I guess the reboot isn't so bad after all.
It isn't and it's a sequel kinda
I can't be the only one thinking Jumbo jr. looks even cuter with those ears.
I love your shirt so much Whitney. Where did you get it from?
anybody else cry when mrs jumbo rocks Dumbo and then Timothy forces him to leave? then we get the heffalumps in parade GOD HELP US!
I haven't seen Dumbo in YEARS. I agree, circuses are strange and full of...
ethical inconsistencies.
Oh Whitney. Thanks for putting things in perspective. XO.
Jumbo Jr. Would've received better food by being a star and Timothy supposedly would've have some of Jr's peanuts

The five dislikes are from the old bitter elephants
there are 20 now!

That's not true!
7:58 “Don’t you have an Algebra 1 class to fail?”
Ouch Whitney, not all teens suck (don’t worry I still love your work)

The clown scene broke my heart. The circus didn't need to go that far in humiliating Dumbo! 😭
Around 9:10 You are Whitney Van Lannigham and YOU SPEAK FOR THE CUTE ANIMALS

U know the song of the roustabouts is kinda traumatic for me cause I’m black and technically that is just sad and scare for me!
Can you do the Proud family show
The song “Baby Mine” always makes me think of this movie and cry but I love it so much😢😢❤💔

Good gracious this made me genuinely sad! Whew it’s been a while since I saw that movie and I definitely didn’t know what it meant as a kid 😵
I get it now this is how animals are abused in circuses and this is why I never go to them.
QUESTION WHY DO THEY CALL HIM DUMBO WHEN AN ELEPHANT NEVER FORGETS , JUMBO IS SO ADORABLE ALSO CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE MOVIE CINDERELLA AND HOW IT IS RUINED
Dumbo is the saddest Disney movie.
Hunter who shot bambi's mom- hold my beer.
Wow,,,,, Whitney !!! 😱😱😱😱😭😭😭😪😥😥😓 Ok ok this one got me,,,,, butttt, i think a little Whitney shimmy !! May help me,,😀😀😀😏😏😏😏
Bro this shit was my favorite fucking movie. I remember there’s one part that Dumbo was drunk and start seeing shit that part scared the shit out of me so bad that I’ll be looking at the tv like “wtf is going?” 🤣🤣
I cant remember but I think one of the elephants calls him an assassin
Yeah, they did.
Just about every single animated movie and short from Mr Mickey Mouse himself has been sad ever since Walt was born.
I always cry every time I see baby mine it is great emotional scene that has me end up crying
Dumbo is dead to me good job T^T

I love you so much Whitney. I always found Dumbo kind of strange.
Nice shirt. The only time I ever saw it, I cried.
