  • (☞゚ヮ゚)☞ Since I'm on vacation this week I decided to make an "uncut" version of my Pinocchio origins episodes!! It's always bothered me there wasn't an option for you guys who wanted to listen to the entire story in one seamless cut, so I thought I'd make one while I'm on vacation! Enjoy :)

    Hope you liked this uncut version of the Pinocchio Origins, SoloCups! 🤗 I was worried a few people might be irritated/thinking I was being lazy with a “re-upload” but my options were limited being on vacation and all. REMEMBER if we get this video to 5,000 likes there will be a GUARANTEED new episode next week!!! And I should mention it’s a VERY heavily requested one... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    Watching the movie as a kid, I thought the message was, "Everything is terrifying." As an adult, I can see that it's meant more for adults and is not a good cautionary tale for kids. You can't expect a child or child puppet to understand right from wrong without explaining the reasonings behind what makes something right or wrong. I think adults like it because they get to see brats get punished and it gives them a cathartic feeling.

      In one of the videos I had as a kid the father tries to explain the concept of morality to his son in the first night, but it never goes beyond “this is good and this is bad.” Pinocchio even keeps asking “why”, perfectly illustrating that child like innocence coupled with an insatiable curiosity. Even then I thought it was a shame his father just got fed up rolled over and went to sleep.

      "You can't expect a child or child puppet to understand right from wrong without explaining the reasonings behind what makes something right or wrong" I mean, the bit where the boys get into drinking, smoking and gambling then get turned into donkeys, while Pinocchio is the only one to see what's going on, and escapes before it's too late for him, is a simple yet effective allegory that most children would get some kind of lesson from. Cause and Effect.

    I grew up on soviet children's movies and that original story of Pinocchio you talked about actually aligned well with the russian version named "Buratino". They managed to make it very kid-friendly and entertaining and stuck to the original story more (but it had a happy ending), totally recommend.

  • @yoonmikim5663
    @yoonmikim5663 5 років тому +957

    Pinnochio, the book, was based on an even older fairytale, though a bit more obscure (and harder to find) where a carpenter makes a puppet, the puppet gets into various bits of trouble, so the carpenter ends up burning the puppet. No blue fairy. No pleasure Island. Just a naughty puppet getting into trouble and then being burned to death. So it's pretty grim beginning to end.

    Something never sat right with me with Pinocchio. I never figured out why, but I finally found it while watching the movie with my then infant daughter. Pinocchio escapes Pleasure Island but evil is never punished. The Coachman still kept his racket going.

    • @Soulslayer612
      @Soulslayer612 4 роки тому +178

      The reason is that Pleasure Island is an allegory for real life. In real life, evil persists. Break up one drug cartel and another takes its place. This is true of basically any corrupt or evil industry.
      Pleasure Island isn't meant to represent one but rather to represent them all as a whole. The point is that Pinocchio realizes that he's on a bad road and turns back onto the path of the righteous AND that he did so before it was too late for him because there really is a point where it can be too late for a person.
      Really if you want the best explanation and breakdown of Pinocchio that you never knew you needed then I suggest looking up Jordan Peterson's videos on the subject.

      @Ruby Hypatia ok here is the problem: there are only two archetypical stories that western people find interesting. The hero's journey as outlined by Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung, and the romance story which can be boiled down to beauty and the beast to explain it easily. Introduce the carictor, have a need, go to the special place of chaos, road of trials to adapt, meet the goddess and meet your goal, make a sacrifice, return having changed. It is not happy. It is a story about how to be a person that can face adversity. Its everything from blues clues to deadpool to jesus. You're stuck with this story.

    Pretty interesting! I know the story since my childhood, too, but due to this summary it's the first time I realized Pinnochio truly ACTS like a marionette to those convincing him doing bad things in the plot, WHILE he's staying a marionette. So another moral of the story could be seen as he has to learn and develop his own (human) independence! Great point of view change there!

    Hi John I know this is an old video but, till this day it remains the best I ever saw explaining the moral message of Pinocchio. Now Disney has a live-action version of the movie out and, youtube is full of people saying how the new movie misses the point of the old movie. But I can tell that none of them read the book (or probably even knows it exists).
    Anyway my only point is to say thank you for this video because we see that even though the original movie's moral message was closer to the original it still missed a lot.

    I was never actually creeped out by the donkey business thing on Pleasure Island. Instead, I was intrigued. I was always saying I wanted to know more. I, being a silly six year-old, thought that the donkeys were being taken to another Pleasure Island to play around on. I did not realise they were being sold to the salt mines and abusive circuses. I was terrified of Monstro and that creepy face the Coachman makes in the pub, though.

      But Pinocchio did redeemed himself at the very end. He started to work, he took care of his father, he learnt a trade and he learnt by himself to read and write. Also when he learnt that his deary Fairy is ill he acted unshelfishly and he gave her the money for her treatment as opposed to using the money he rightfully earned to buy himself new clothes. And you call his redemption undeserved?

    Throughout the book Pinocchio keeps making mistakes, and every time he gets another chance once the consequences play out.
    If you actually read the book you’ll find it far more uplifting.

    Being Italian, for me the story of Pinocchio was always known in its 21st century form. I also knew the Disney but I never tough much about the differences. Also, I find it very funny how the character of Mangiafuoco, which literally translate in Fire-eater, has been adapted into Stromboli, which is a vulcano (and an island) in the south of Italy of the cost of Sicily. I guess Stroboli literally eats fire.
    Also, the fish name, Monstro, sound a lot like Mostro which translate into a generic monster, while the original name dogfish seems to be a literal translation of pescecane, which is another name for squalo" i.e. shark. So probably Collodi was just indicating a huge shark as the see monster.

A few years ago I found the Italian live action version with the famous Italian actor/comedian Roberto Benigni playing Pinocchio and his beautiful wife was the fairy. I had to watch it in English dubbed to keep up with the fast dialogue but found the Italian uncut version even better. It has many of those extra stories you discussed. It is beautifully rendered and a delight for old and young. Now I need to get a copy of the book for the last few adventures.

      Yeah, there’s a lot of people holding on to what Pinocchio did in the past and it’s very annoying. I agree that the message of the story is to let the past go and move on and to be a better person. I understand Pinocchio did some horrible things before, but he changed as the story went on. He learned to do better. He became better. That’s the point.

    I like that Stromboli (Mangiafuoco) and the Coachman ("il Postiglione" in Italian) are voiced by the same person. It reminds me of "Dracula" and "Nosferatu" (1922).
    The coachman („der Kutscher“ in German) that takes Jonathan Harker (Thomas Hutter in "Nosferatu") to Count Dracula (Count Orlok in "Nosferatu") is actually the count („der Graf“ in German) in disguise. They are the same person.

    Not all factory workers are NOT smart, some choose it bc it pays better than the things they WANT to do in life depending on the area they live in. My husband is smart and will more than likely make more than I do when i graduate as a medical assistant. He makes more than alot of nurses do where I live.

    This is another good one. I remember searching out these old stories as a young boy. I always read a couple years above my grade, fascinated by the real stories behind so many great works of literature, plays, movies, etc. I've been hooked on your shows lately, for eh aforementioned reasons. Do continue these cool shows!

    The Golden Ass by Apuleius was written in the second century and is considered an influence on Collodi. The protagonist is turned into a donkey for a year then partakes in the mystery of Isis who appears to him and restores his humanity. The novel also contains the earliest surviving written telling of Cupid and psyche, which influences a number of fairytales too.
