You can stretch a thing so far and then it won't hold. The picture is right as it is. And another ten minutes is liable to cost five hundred thousand dollars. I can't afford it."

The new disc doesn't lose any games or activities, but it does add one new one: "DisneyPedia: 'My First Circus'." Now I've always been a big fan of the "DisneyPedia" featurettes, which are basically mini-nature documentaries designed to present children with an overview that is relevant to the DVD it is included on and filled with fun footage from various Disney works. Imagine my disappointment, then, when I saw that to get to the eight different "DisneyPedia" subjects, one must first endure an annoying wheel-spinning, question-answering game for each. The game is easy and may well amuse a younger audience, but even for them, the inability to directly access a particular circus animal (to which this game is dedicated) or to repeat one of the segments will be frustrating. The featurettes themselves are at least quite enjoyable and make the pain of the game worth it.Cinema: The New Pictures". Time. October 27, 1941. pp.97–98, 100.

What do you think the structure could be? Hall of Justice? Watchtower? Steppenwolf's lair? Dumbo's circus? If Dumbo has one weakness, it is that its ending feels too contained. The film's short length is never an issue except for in the last scene, which certainly works in achieving poignancy, but feels as though it could be granted a few extra minutes in which to resolve. Nevertheless, that complaint is minor in light of everything else about the movie that goes right. Its brevity and simplicity mean that it often gets overshadowed by the studio titans that surround it, but its strong emotional appeal and sensible execution have ensured its enduring legacy.

Given the minimal difference in bonus feature offerings on the new disc (outlined below), it's the advertised "new digital transfer" that everyone's dying to know about. Good news, everyone. The transfer is new and it makes for quite an improvement... for the most part. The transfer used for the previous 60th Anniversary Edition wasn't quite horrible but was hardly satisfying either. Unfortunately, the new transfer pales in comparison to the treatment bestowed upon animated classics in Disney's Platinum Edition line.Ager, Cecelia (October 24, 1941).
