Disney did not put the original in a "blue wig or something". As to the rest of your comment, all I can say is that you do not own a crystal ball and therefore, the things you are saying cannot be proven. You do not know it is a "stinkaroo". People did ask for this remake. People do want it. And you do not have the slightest idea who would pay for it. I will tell you this much. If I did not already have Disney+, I would get it just for this. Therefore, basically, everything you said is just completely wrong. When you make statements, I suggest you speak for yourself and not the rest of the universe.
It would still be nice to have some originality for a change.
They have plenty of originality. Disenchanted, Luca, Soul, Turning Red, Encanto, Better Nate Than Ever....shall I go on?
Disney Pictures (the Live Action studio) consistently makes bombs when they're not mining their own established IPs (Nutcracker, Wrinkle in Time, The BFG, The Finest Hours).
Not too bad, has more of a plastic feel then wood, but still passable.New photo of Pinocchio
I think Pinocchio is going straight to Disney Plus because while it may be a good movie, it doesn't have the type of fandom that would drive people to the theaters in the same way Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin and the Lion King did. I think people have enough interest in the Pinocchio IP to check it out on streaming, however.And it's free!
I like Pinocchio, but I was stating reasons why I don't think it would be a very commercial movie in 2022.I can't tell if you like Pinocchio because of all that or you didn't.
Pinocchio was a dark movie, but it was soooo good. I watch it at least once a year. I'm still disturbed when I hear the little boy- donkey crying for it's mom! I think this will be dark enough around Pleasure Island, but not as "disturbing", if that makes sense.
Plus, Figaro!
I hear in the remake, in place of smoking, they'll be having Pinocchio manage a hedge fund and sell Amway.
