    If you hadn’t noticed, Disney has been on an absolute rampage of re-making their animated classics in “live-action” over the past few years. From Aladdin to The Lion King to Beauty and the Beast to Dumbo, they’re… y’know they’re doing it… for sure. Now, as they slowly run out of classics to remake, they’ve finally landed on one of their very first animated films ever… Pinocchio!
    As you might imagine from a 2022 remake of a movie from 80 years ago, 2022’s Pinocchio does raise some questions. Like
    To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to the Pinocchio remake! Like what’s up with the iconic Blue Fairy showing up for one scene and then disappearing forever? Why is there an extended scene involving horse poop? Does Pinocchio learn anything at all, or is he already perfect from the beginning? And if he already fully gets the difference between right and wrong, what’s the point of Jiminy Cricket?

    The original Pinocchio contained roughly 14,000 metaphors about maturity, responsibility and the human condition. Somehow, the AI that wrote Pinocchio 2022 managed to avoid recognizing a single one of them. It's almost impressive, like dodging raindrops in a storm.

      @DaMaster012 Рік тому +2

      That's because the AI that wrote 2022's Pinochetio was given the instruction to rewrite Pinocchio so the main character is perfect, doesn't have to learn anything, and is only a victim of circumstance, under the belief it would appeal to the college aged, infant minded, technicolor-haired, left of Karl Marx, social justice lynch mobsters who think they're perfect, don't have to learn anything, and are only victims of circumstance; just like all the other "cUrReNt yEaR" pig slop about strongk, empowahed MaRey SuuUuuues who are perfect, don't have to learn anything, and are only victims of circumstance.
      Odd that the Soulless Disney Corporation would try to remake their classic animated films to cater to those people, since Walt Disney built an empire by making art for adults and children alike, who could grow up and pass those stories onto their children, but SJLMs don't have kids, because they aborted all of them.

    Even as a kid, I always thought it was so weird that the kids in Pinocchio were essentially portrayed as evil (or at least bad enough to justify being turned into donkeys) when all they did was smoke and play pool. The fact in this one, all they did was drink soda and smash things they were told were okay to smash is just hilarious.

    I always thought it was funny how Jiminy Cricket, who really does look like a grasshopper, was offended when Lampwick asked, "Who's the grasshopper?" in the animated classic. But right now, I just did an image search, and it turns out that there ARE green crickets that look just like Jiminy.

    In theory, this should've been good. Zemekis and Hanks collab on an adaptation which they need to add a lot to has worked out great before, Polar Express is one of my favourite adaptations. Unfortunately, Disney+ era Disney had to be involved. And for a story like this to be told right with the modern rating system it needs to be rated R, given some of the stuff in the source material (even modern PG-13 is too restrictive for this story). But of course, that would scare away Disney's core audiance. Moral of the story, if you want to make a family movie with Zemekis and Hanks, use source material that can make a G rated movie.

That scene scared the crap out of me as a kid.

      I can't believe Disney thought that is too inappropriate. It's supposed to be scary, like if you do bad things, binge drink, smoke, destroy people's property, consequences (possibly dire ones) will follow. You make a jackass out of yourself by doing these things and any kid can pick that up.

      Now I actually _want_ to see the original animated movie. Admittedly, in the CGI version I think I'd want to see it toned down a bit. Scaring is okay, scarring not so much.

And you may not realize this, but there's a surprising amount of stuff like that in movies. I'd heard a teacher describe the medium as 'polishing turds, all day.' When you're young and passionate and maybe a little prideful, that's enough to make you think twice.

    4:04 - This is the biggest issue with this remake. They changed events related to the story in ways that ruin the overall message. Pinocchio in the original film is convinced to join the puppet show instead of going to school. This is why he faces the consequences of his actions. In this movie he actually makes it to school, defeating the purpose of the life lesson. When Pinocchio goes to Pleasure Island he indulges in smoking and even implies he was breaking things with an axe. He's then transformed into a donkey which was a metaphor for saying he was being a jackass. In contrast in this movie he refused to break anything, there weren't any cigars, and kids drinking root beer is hardly a problem. Once again this movie missed the true purpose of why the scene worked in the original. Being turned into a half donkey in this movie isn't justified.
    The whole point of the original film is that Pinocchio doesn't know right from wrong and he's easily lead astray. And when he makes the wrong choices there are consequences for his actions. These experiences are meant to build his character into an individual that learned from his mistakes and eventually chooses to do the right thing. But in this movie he's already trying to do the right thing all along. Sure, he's easily convinced to do the wrong thing a few times almost choosing not to go to school, but Jiminy catches up with him convincing Pinocchio to go to school before he could complete his bad decision. Then there's the time where he selflessly put Geppetto before the puppet show and his donkey ears and tail vanish. The problem with this scene is it has no meaning because he never really tried to do anything wrong in the first place. When the plot is about learning from your mistakes and then the movie doesn't allow you to make them in the first place, you have failed to make a faithful adaptation.

    • @craZivn
      @craZivn Рік тому +17

      Agree on all points! Not sure if this was explained in the movie but in the book, the coach driver's business was effectively running a donkey mill based on the story logic that when people act like asses long enough, they become them and he could sell the donkeys or work them to death.
      Also, in the book the cricket gets smashed by Pinocchio with a hammer in a rage on their second meeting IIRC, after that he shows up periodically to chide Pinocchio as a cricket-ghost.
      So in the book, Pinocchio starts out as a violent psychopath rather than innocently clueless, attempting to injure Geppetto while he was still just a piece of wood. Even the original Disney movie mellowed the story quite a bit.
