Pinocchio was not a bomb

It was a bomb, in its first run it grossed lower than expected domestic grosses and made almost no money internationally due to the second World War in Europe. It did not break even until after WW2 when it was released to Europe for the first time and rereleased in the USA. If you want to read more I recommend Pinocchio: The Making of a Disney Epic.

If a movie studio has to charge off 50% of the movie's production cost that is considered a bomb.

Someone needs to go back and retake Disney History 101.

That's not a real class at any University.

Not quite true, many colleges have Disney related classes from business to movie history.

Anyways the point is before you argue you might want to brush up on your Disney History.

Disneyland can't use the arm to move a fish underwater but Legoland can as a stationary thrill ride. It is one of the best rides in the park.

Box office says otherwise son

Movie quality and box office total don’t always coincide. Because life, timing, PR, reality n’ stuff.

C’mon, you know this dang well. I’m certain you can name at least 10 movies you enjoy (because they’re good) that didn’t perform great at the box office for one reason or another. And 10 film hits that, in retrospect, are forgettable junk.

A few of my favorite underperforming treasures:

Secondhand Lions
Local Hero
Alice in Wonderland (Disney 1951)
That Thing You Do
The Right Stuff

When everybody selected the same ride profile, it was like watching a robot ballet.
