"Dumbo" (PG)
Tim Burton directs this live-action remake of the 1941 animated classic. It also reunites him with his"Batman Returns"stars Michael Keaton and Danny DeVito.
DeVito runs the circus where Dumbo's born and Keaton is like an evil version of Walt Disney, who wants to buy them out after he finds out that Dumbo can fly.
There are no talking animals in this movie. Instead, the action focuses on the human children of Colin Farrell. He plays a one-armed World War I veteran who's put in charge of the elephants. He falls for Eva Green, a trapeze artist who flies with Dumbo.
"Dumbo"is the first of several live-action remakes coming out this year from Disney. We've also got"Aladdin"on May 24th and"The Lion King"hits theaters on July 19th.
It's also Danny DeVito's third time working with Michael Keaton, and is technically his fifth with Tim Burton. When DeVito directed"Hoffa", he gave Burton an uncredited cameo as one of the dead bodies in one of the coffins for a big funeral scene.

Don Rickles is in "Toy Story 4", Thanks to Pre-Recorded Audio!
"Toy Story" just isn't "Toy Story"with out DON RICKLES as Mr. Potato Head. So I was CRUSHED when Don passed away before he could record his part for "Toy Story 4".
But Mr. Potato Head IS in the movie, and he IS voiced by Don Rickles . . . thanks to a bunch of audio tracks he left behind. And they have his family's blessing.
Director Josh Cooley says, quote, "We went through, jeez, 25 years of everything we didn't use for Toy Story 1, 2, 3, the theme parks, the ice capades, the video games . . . everything that he's recorded for Mr. Potato Head.
"And we were able to do that. And so I'm very honored that they asked us to do that, and I'm very honored that he's in the film. Nobody can replace him."
