You brought up very good points why this movie fails. Pinocchio in this movie isn’t a bad kid at all. He just goes through the motions and what’s even more messed up and dark is that he gets punished for doing the right thing like going to school and not participating with the other kids on Pleasure Island. It’s like the filmmakers didn’t want the protagonist to do bad things while forgetting that Pinocchio is supposed to do bad things. I do like the inclusion of Geppetto finding out Pinocchio was at Pleasure Island which explains why he went out to sea to look for him instead of him just being randomly out at sea in the original.
38:39 Playing pool was pretty much the same as gambling back in the 40s when this movie was made. You could only play it at bars which wasn't a place for kids and most Americans considered it a game for delinquents so it made sense why it was in the original movie. Of course it's out of place in the remake because we don't view pool the same way we did back then. In fact the whole Pleasure Island sequence is just wrong in the remake because it's modelled so much like Disneyland that one could think that the movie tells the audience that kids visiting Disneyland is bad.
Jiminy in the original; Gives good advices to Pinocchio, is his friend and always there for him. Jiminy in the remake: Say horrible jokes and gives awful advices. He was a charming character with a big heart and here the cricket is really annoying and unfunny. Thank's for ruining him Disney 🙄
Just watch Teacher's Pet. Somehow that one works. Also, I can't believe they used a gag from Shrek 2 sincerely in this movie. Also, as a rowdy girl when I was a kid (though my mischief involved breaking pencils and chucking erasers) they executed the girls being taken to the island *VERY* badly. It's, like, an extra layer of creepy.
Honestly, as an Italian, watching this movie I felt disrespected, outraged and cursed at. It seems like the kinda movie that someone that hates Italy would make. The original seemed like a love letter to Italy and it is still hailed as national treasure (kinda). Also, I know quite a bit about Pinocchio and how Italian culture influenced it (like how Mangiafuoco in the 40's adaptation is at most a caricature of southern Italians, as to why they changed him is beyond me) so feel free to ask
Having just watched the del torro pinocchio, I am floored at how badly they told this story. Speaking of things I just watched, loving all the GoT clips you threw in considering the 6 hour video. Great analysis, I smashed that subscribe button, excited to see what you make in the future.
14:09 Wow, I recognised it! That's Piazza dei Martiri in Naples. I use to go there rather often. It felt so familiar at first glance... (Yes I'm Italian). 20:35 Maybe someone has already told you this, but the lady in this scene is speaking Italian and says "Geppetto! Come stai?" which means "Geppetto! How are you?" Anyway, just another poorly conceived, poorly executed and poorly presented Disney live-action remake. As an Italian, I can assure you that all those 2022 Pinocchio movies were largely discussed here (wether in the good or in the bad). The least known one was "Pinocchio A True Story", which was talked about only by those who were already into the fruity Pinocchio meme and foreign animation in general.
Am I the only one who thinks Honest John's CGI design is the worst design ever especially coming from Disney? He looks like he's staring into my soul and I have to squint/close my eyes whenever I look at him and I actually like foxes.
Great video. Also, thanks for the nod to your Christian faith as well, it's great to here someone just opennly talk about it as part of their over all character and morals.
What effort? The ugly 3D for Jiminy is a good effort? Or the lame jokes the fox made? Or Pinocchio smelling horse poop? Are you sure you appreciate all this?
@@ladypool1404 yes I do appreciate I’ve always loved Pinocchio ever since they made movies of it I even read the books I don’t care on what they had to do for the styles and designs they still look very cool to me not everyone agreed what the other thinks that’s now how it works
I’ve seen the original many times before, and I love every single bit of it, including Geppetto’s collection of clocks, it’s just wonderful and I want all the clocks in the original, not the remake! 😂⏱️⏱️😂❤

Had a feelin it was the case
So they put this movie on Disney+ the same day Queen Elizabeth died.
I like to think this movie was so bad it killed her
😆 😆 😆 😆 😆

Wow I hope more people will see this, I didn’t expect to see so few views when I clicked 😳 great video, man!!

You're making great content. I love your edits and commentary, keep it up!

Here after watching your entire 6 hour GOT retrospective. Nice vid bro, great channel

Hell yeah to the shoutout to Cynthia Erivo being too good for this. Bad Times & the El Royale is wonderful.
This is probably the best review of this movie ever, it's pretty easy to agree with the fair opinions as well though that is just my opinion
Hearing Kingdom Hearts ost in the background is very nice.
Glad i played it last year to appreciate it XD
Cool video, I hope you get more views
Nice! Because I never finished the movie (I tried 5 times) and was really shocked when it appeared on my Disney Plus account
Unrelated: but I cannot hear or eat Stromboli in my life because of the OG movie. 😭😊
this video is so underated it deserves more views
I see this movie as another example of "Oh no, you did nothing wrong, baby. It's this terrible system that harmed you" approach.
omg I am laughing so hard at that buff fairy🤣
The huge glass mugs of root beer look soooooooo fake. 🍻
The Guillermo del toro version will always be much better than this.
Yikes 😅

Why would you call that female teacher a "broad"? Sexism out of nowhere.
Great video.

In my opinion it’s pretty amazing,sure they missed some important parts but at least appreciate the effort they tried to put in the movie it’s cool

Genuine question, tho: what's amazing about it? It would be interesting to know a different perspective in more depth.
