Pinocchio | comment |
Released in 1940, Pinocchio is the second film in the Disney Animated Canon, based very loosely on The Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi.The woodworker Geppetto creates a puppet, which he names Pinocchio. Before going to bed, he notices the wishing star and wishes on it that Pinocchio would become a real boy. The Blue Fairy hears his wish and brings Pinocchio to life. She promises him that he will become a real boy if he can prove himself brave, truthful, and unselfish, and she assigns Jiminy Cricket to be his guiding conscience in the meantime.The opening song, "When You Wish Upon a Star", is arguably the most well-known and beloved song of any Disney movie, and has since become the theme song for the Disney Theme Parks. A brief excerpt of the melody is used in Disney's Vanity Plate (the one with the castle) at the beginning of many of their movies.There are licensed platform games released in 1995 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, Sega Genesis and Game Boy. In The '90s, Disney created a Made-for-TV Movie musical, Geppetto, that switched the P.O.V. character to that of the toymaker and focused on his Character Development as he learns how to be a good father. Featuring songs from the original alongside new Stephen Schwartz numbers, it was adapted for the amateur theater circuit as My Son Pinocchio in The New '10s.A live-action/CGI remake of the film was released exclusively to Disney+ on September 8, 2022 directed by Robert Zemeckis. With Benjamin Evan Ainsworth voicing the titular character, Tom Hanks as Geppetto, Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Jiminy Cricket, and Keegan-Michael Key as Honest John. | |

Don't even ask what takes place right after he says that. Pushed even further when he says "What do I look like, a jackass?" | |

Noisy Shut-Up: Jiminy Cricket does this twice. Jiminy tries to sleep in Geppetto's workshop and is kept awake by a cacophony of ticking clocks and Geppetto's snoring. When Jiminy yells "QUIET!!", the clocks immediately stop ticking and Geppetto stops snoring. When Jiminy sees Pinocchio marching with Honest John and Gideon singing "Hey diddlee dee", he tries to get their attention, but they are too busy singing to see him. Eventually he climbs onto Honest John's hat, and whistles very loudly; then Pinocchio sees him. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
Pinocchio / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy Stromboli's incarnation in the original novel, Mangiafuoco/Fire-Eater, was actually one of the nicest characters Pinocchio encounters. While he did attempt to use Pinocchio for firewood to finish cooking his roast, that was only after Pinocchio interrupted his puppet show, and when he learned of Pinocchio's plight regarding Geppetto he took pity on him, even giving him money to help pay for what the puppet needed, and decides to eat a half-cooked roast instead of burning another puppet in Pinocchio's place. While the book's counterpart of Monstro, the Terrible Dogfish, swallows Geppetto and Pinocchio, it's not portrayed as a malicious creature, but rather a wild animal uncaring of what it's causing while feeding itself, it doesn't even chase after the two when they escape (which they do more easily by taking advantage of the Dogfish sleeping with an open mouth due to its asthma). | |

Anti-Alcohol Aesop: In the Pleasure Island scene, children being allowed to drink is one of the many things that ruins many of the children's lives into a life of slavery as donkeys.

Exploited Trope | |
Pinocchio / int_21ec9741 | comment |
Exploited Trope: A bizarre example. Since this is a morality play for children, this world operates by some strange logic, such as the Space Whale Aesop that acting like a jackass will literally turn you into a donkey. The Coachman seeks to profit from this by luring children into a mischief-themed amusement park where they're encouraged to misbehave, and then selling them as livestock after they literally make jackasses of themselves. | |

Ambiguously Human | |
Pinocchio / int_225d8ff9 | comment |
Ambiguously Human The Coachman. His possible identity ranges from simply an evil and greedy man with access to a cursed island to Satan himself. And he, unlike the other human characters in the film (including Pinocchio turned into a real boy), has only 4 fingers per hand instead of five, and his face changes suddenly and drastically at one point in the Red Lobster Inn, terrorizing almost to death Foulfellow and Gideon. The Coachman's hairy, shadowy minions as well. It's not clear if they're humans, anthropomorphic animals like Honest John and Gideon (probably gorillas based on their body proportions and black fur), demons, or something else. One illustration for a storybook based on the movie shows the thugs in a more well-lit scene, and it depicts them as human: they're ordinary men with hairy forearms who wear executioner's hoods. However, whether this is also the case in the original movie is still unclear. | |

Pinocchio / int_25efd080 | comment |
Artistic License – Marine Biology: Monstro the whale looks like a demonic cross between a sperm whale and a baleen whale; the body shape is that of a sperm whale, but he has a head much too wide and teeth on both jaws when real sperm whales have laterally-flattened heads and only have teeth on their very thin lower jaw. He also has belly pleats, which is a trait of baleen whales. He's seen deeply sleeping at the bottom of the ocean - whales don't sleep that way; they sleep hanging vertically in the water and half of their brain is actually still awake to ensure that they surface and breathe or else they would drown.note Although it's eventually revealed he's just pretending to sleep so he can ambush passing schools of fish. | |

Even Evil Has Standards: Honest John and Gideon are perfectly fine with conning small children out of their money and freedom, and if one scene is to be believed, with doing hits as well. However, when the Coachman mentions taking boys to Pleasure Island, they're absolutely horrified. And when the Coachman assures them that the boys will never return as themselves to talk around and makes a Nightmare Face for emphasis, the fox and cat cower in fear. And yet, regardless of their morals, they trick Pinocchio into going there anyway, mainly because they're too scared to refuse the Coachman's proposition after that. | |

Ignorant About Fire: The title character sees a candle for the first time and tries to grab the flame, eventually setting his finger on fire. As he's still made of wood, he doesn't feel a thing, but Geppetto freaks out and frantically looks for some water to dowse the flame, eventually dunking Pinoch's hand on Cleo's fishbowl. | |

Crapsaccharine World: Pleasure Island is a textbook example of this trope. The Coachman takes disobedient boys here to allow them to do anything at all that they want, including smoke cigars, drink beer or play pool, but eventually, they are turned into donkeys and sold off by the Coachman. (Of course, the fact that Pleasure Island is a gigantic carnival world — and not the wholesome kind of carnival, either — should have tipped somebody off.) Worst of all, it is implied that the Coachman will continue his evil ways regardless. | |

Skewed Priorities: When Jiminy goes to tell Geppetto about Pinocchio joining the theatre, he stops himself, saying that would be "snitching". This is skewed because telling a child's parent that their child has run off to the theatre on his own is obviously not a bad thing, and in the child's best interest. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Pinocchio gets reunited with Geppetto and becomes a real boy, but the Coachman is never punished. And those hundreds of innocent children who were taken from their families, turned into donkeys, and sold into slavery? They're still donkeys. No one comes to their rescue. Like in the original story, it's implied they're from other villages and towns, or the Coachman wouldn't have asked Honest John and Gideon to bring him some little bad boys late in the evening in Pinocchio's village with no one around by midnight and giving them barely the time to take him only Pinocchio just escaped from Stromboli. | |

In the original novel, Pinocchio is a Jerk with a Heart of Gold who starts off being quite reckless and disobedient, learning his lessons the hard way. Disney's version portrays him in a much more sympathetic manner. Here, he is a generally well-meaning but naïve child who is talked into bad things due to his innocence. | |

Book Ends The movie both starts and ends with Pinocchio and Geppetto dancing, although the first time Pinocchio's still an inanimate puppet, and the last time he's a real boy. Jiminy Cricket even lampshades it by saying, "Well, this is about where I came in!" The film also starts and ends with "When You Wish Upon A Star" being sung, although it's only two lines sung at the end. The film starts and ends with Jiminy Breaking the Fourth Wall. The very first thing Pinocchio does, both as a puppet and as a real boy, is to sit up and rub his eyes. When Pinocchio comes to life, Geppetto is initially unaware of the fact. Then when Pinocchio is brought back to life as a real boy, Geppetto is initially ignorant of the fact his son has been brought back to life. | |

Really Was Born Yesterday: Due to being created suddenly on the night, and being thrown into the world alone the following day with almost no knowledge of how is the world surrounding him, Pinocchio becomes an easy target for awful people to tempt him into going with them for their own shady benefit. | |

Kids Are Cruel | |
Pinocchio / int_63389b0b | comment |
The original book was more grim (and considering how nightmarish this movie can get, that's saying something!) Pinocchio is constantly a little jerk, Geppetto is more temperamental. The very first appearance of the Fairy is ghastly: when Pinocchio begs her for help when he's in danger, she refuses by claiming to be dead and waiting for a hearse to take her away. The Cat and the Fox (Gideon and Honest John) try to steal money from Pinocchio disguised as street bandits and later hanged Pinocchio from a big tree. When the Cricket first appears, Pinocchio kills it with a hammer (then we see it again like a ghost and again alive in the house of the Fairy). Lampwick dies from overwork in donkey form in a gut-wrenching scene near the end of the novel. Oh, and Pinocchio bites off the Cat's paw. | |

The original Geppetto was a very, very poor carpenter in Tuscany. The setting of the film looks more like Tyrol, with its quainter, more "storybook" architecture and mountains, and Geppetto's house is more cozy and charming. | |

Stromboli; Stromboli in the film is also quite volcanic. The Red Lobster Inn may seem rather luxuriant to modern eyes, but this has historic precedence; lobsters before the mid 1900s were once seen as unclean, and as food only eaten by the lower class and the poor. | |

Pinocchio / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy In the original novel, Pinocchio is a Jerk with a Heart of Gold who starts off being quite reckless and disobedient, learning his lessons the hard way. Disney's version portrays him in a much more sympathetic manner. Here, he is a generally well-meaning but naïve child who is talked into bad things due to his innocence. Collodi's Geppetto was clearly a loving father, but more of a Grumpy Old Man and not very friendly. Here, he is far nicer and better tempered. The Cricket in the book was not the cheerful, friendly cricket of this film. He was stern whenever he admonished Pinocchio. | |

Parental Bonus | |
Pinocchio / int_86daf505 | comment |
Parental Bonus: In addition to Jiminy Cricket's Covert Pervert moment with getting a little too enamored of the risque marionettes performing on stage with Pinocchio, there's a moment earlier while he's in Geppetto's workshop in which he realizes one of the mechanical figurines against which he's leaning is of a shapely woman and he's got his hand planted on her bustle. He then promptly snatches it away and actually apologizes to her. The second half of the "I've Got No Strings" number is pretty much a Dutch, French, and Russian woman saying they want to have sex with Pinnochio. But downplayed in such a way that it would go over most kids' heads. Indeed, Pinnochio himself is clueless about what they are getting at. | |

Partial Transformation: Pinocchio's transformation into a jackass merely amounts to ears, a tail, and occasional braying.

Literal Metaphor | |
Pinocchio / int_8cf6aa | comment |
Literal Metaphor: A visual one. The boys on Pleasure Island figuratively make total jackasses of themselves, smoking and drinking and gambling and so on. Then they end up turning into literal jackasses. A subtle one, which is also a kind of Visual Pun: the scene in which Lampwick and Pinocchio play pool starts from outside, showing that the pool hall in which they're playing is shaped and painted like an 8-ball, and one of Lampwick's trick shots while he's ridiculing Jiminy Cricket sends the 8-ball careening into him. During most of that scene, he's got Jiminy behind the 8-ball, so to speak... just as the Coachman also has them behind the 8-ball, and is about to make his final play. As Pinocchio's nose grew to the size of a tree branch with every lie he told, the Blue Fairy gives him a lesson in this form. | |

Colossus Climb: During the song scene "An Actor's Life for Me", Jiminy catches up to Pinocchio, Honest John, and Gideon by grabbing onto Honest John's tail and then hopping up onto his hat. At one point, Honest John is bobbing his head while singing, causing Jiminy to hang on for dear life. | |

Pinocchio is just full of this in general. He shows off several spinning limb moves in the Stromboli performance. Justified, as he's a puppet and has joints different from those of a human. | |

Villainous Breakdown | |
Pinocchio / int_957e5fc2 | comment |
Villainous Breakdown: Monstro during the climax in a rather terrifying way. Though seeing as two people just lit a huge fire inside him, you'd think it would be understandable that he'd be pissed, but no, all this act does is merely make him sneeze. When he realizes two people just escaped from his belly, he absolutely flips out. He gets more terrible and wrathful the more they dodge him and get closer to shore, so much so, he doesn't even care he's about to crash into a landmass. He just wants to kill them. | |

Informed Species | |
Pinocchio / int_9a11f9cf | comment |
Informed Species Monstro doesn't look like any real species of whale. From the side, he looks a bit like a sperm whale, but a sperm whale's jaw is narrow, unlike Monstro's shovel-jaw. Which, by the way, is pleated. Only rorquals (like the blue whale and humpback whale) have grooved lower jaws (but no teeth; instead they have baleen fringes). He looks like a demonic caricature of a whale; more like the biblical Leviathan than any real sea creature. Jiminy Cricket doesn’t really look like a cricket. He somewhat resembles Lowly Worm from the World of Richard Scarry. | |

Foreshadowing | |
Pinocchio / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing We're first clued to Pleasure Island's actual nature when Honest John and Gideon are freaked out by the mention of it, mentioning an unexplained law not even they want to deal with. Also, before the boys start being transformed into donkeys, look carefully at the chair Pinocchio is sitting on at the pool hall, it has a donkey face carving on the head. Further hints: the Coachman's dialogue stating that "They never come back... AS BOYS!" and our seeing a team of donkeys pulling his coach as he cracks the whip over them. Another moment that foreshadows this is when Jiminy confronts Pinocchio at the billiard hall. As he leaves in a huff, Lampwick laughs at him, to which he snaps in response, "Go on, laugh! Make a jackass out of yourself!" Honest John convinces Pinocchio to go to Pleasure Island by giving him his "ticket", which is an Ace of Spades card...Remember the Black Spot from Treasure Island? The real-life inspiration for that is the Ace of Spades, sometimes given to pirates to announce their imminent ruin. | |

Ascended Extra | |
Pinocchio / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra Jiminy Cricket in the original story, he was a nameless cricket who was squashed by the title character early on and appeared later as a ghost. In the Disney version, he was given the name Jiminy Cricket and promoted to narrator. Not only did he practically steal the movie away from its title character, but he's gone on to host/narrate other Disney films, short subjects, and theme park shows. He's also a notable character in several of the Kingdom Hearts games. Figaro was based on a minor cat in the book which Geppetto had. He has shown up in a lot of other Disney material whenever a character needs a cat. Jiminy went on to become a recurring character in the Disney Animated Canon (appearing again in Fun and Fancy Free), as well as host a series of educational cartoons in the 1950s called I'm No Fool, and his theme music became the theme for Disney in general. And is now played in Once Upon a Time by the same actor who was Revan and Shepard's "voice of conscience". | |

Karma Houdini | |
Pinocchio / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini In the book, the Cat (Gideon) lost a paw and became blind, while the Fox (Honest John) became lame and had to sell his own tail, and both are begging for food. Although there is no specific connection to their deeds, it is stated that they got all they deserved. In the film, no punishment is seen, nor any suggestion that punishment will come their way. A planned scene that was ultimately deleted from the final film would have had him and Gideon get caught by the police after running into Pinocchio a third time. However, this was more or less adapted into a small book, Pinocchio's Promise, where Honest John is chased by a policeman. Stromboli doesn't get any punishment other than not being able to use Pinocchio for his show and surely going furious and desperate after discovering too late that he lost his "little wooden gold mine" - he even gets to keep all the money from the first night, although certainly he will not be able to find utility in Pinocchio and to exploit him as a real boy in the flesh. The Coachman, just like in the original Collodi's story, is not punished in the film; it is only in the SNES game that he is kicked off a cliff by Pinocchio (and even in this case his ultimate fate is ambiguous). | |

Oh, Crap!: Pinocchio and Jiminy when Pinocchio is trapped in the cage and they realise the Blue Fairy is coming and will know Pinocchio wasn't at school like he should have been. Jiminy when he realizes the true nature of Pleasure Island after seeing all the kids-turned-donkeys and being sold. Lampwick, when he realizes he's turning into a donkey. He starts getting very worried when he notices the transformations, and then, when he sees himself in the mirror, he comes unglued in a way that wouldn't be out of place in a horror movie... The school of fish when Monstro opens his eye right in front of them (actually, all the fish react like this whenever Monstro's name is even mentioned). Pinocchio, when he first sees Monstro swimming at him. Geppetto when he realises Pinocchio's plan of making Monstro sneeze will infuriate Monstro. And it does, because it involves making a fire inside him. Geppetto and Pinocchio when Monstro's tail is about to come down on top of them. | |

Digital Destruction: The 1992 restoration shifted the color scheme too closely to red tones.note Unlike most instances of "restored" Disney movies boasting different color schemes than on an older video release, Disney has confirmed that this deviated too strongly from the movie's original appearance, due to the restoration team using a print generations removed from the original negative. | |

Take That! "What does an actor want with a conscience anyway?" Some have interpreted the way Pleasure Island is depicted as reflecting Walt's view on what amusement parks were like at the time, which led him to create his own, improved version fifteen years later with Disneyland. | |

False Utopia: Pleasure Island, where the theme park turns into a place where kids do all sorts of sinful stuff like vandalizing buildings, smoking cigars, drinking beer, and playing in pool halls, only to end up making jackasses out of themselves and they get sent to slavery in the salt mines. | |

Too Dumb to Live | |
Pinocchio / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Too Dumb to Live Pinocchio is much too easily swayed by Honest John and Gideon yet again after they convinced him to go to Stromboli; and the second time around, they lure him into something much worse, albeit with a little more resistance on Pinocchio's part. All of the naughty boys who were convinced to go to Pleasure Island; the Coachman even lampshades this as he knows the bad ones will be easy to lure with the promise of beer, sweets, games, and no authority whatsoever. Further lampshaded once they've all turned into donkeys as the talking ones beg to be freed, with the Coachman reminding them of their foolishness. | |

Mixed Metaphor Jiminy: You buttered your bread. Now sleep in it!note Originally, this was to be one of Jiminy's main shticks, but over the course of the film's production, they were removed (for instance, it was intended that he describe Honest John and Gideon as "a couple of ill winds in cheap clothing"). Only the one line above was used, and in the context of its usage, he was more than a little frustrated and flustered. Coachman: "Give a bad boy enough rope and he'll make a jackass of himself!" | |

And he, unlike the other human characters in the film (including Pinocchio turned into a real boy), has only 4 fingers per hand instead of five, and his face changes suddenly and drastically at one point in the Red Lobster Inn, terrorizing almost to death Foulfellow and Gideon. | |

Non-Standard Character Design | |
Pinocchio / int_c55c31e2 | comment |
Non-Standard Character Design: The Blue Fairy is a remarkably realistically-drawn character in a film where all other human characters are cartoony looking. This is because while all the other characters were traditional hand-drawn cartoons, the Blue Fairy was rotoscoped — a live actress was filmed, and then the animator simply traced her directly from the frames of that film. This technique tends to produce the Uncanny Valley effect, which is usually considered an undesirable side effect, but in this case was intentionally harnessed to communicate the otherworldly nature of the character. | |

Shout-Out | |
Pinocchio / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out The exterior of the pool hall on Pleasure Island is a giant eight-ball and cue stick, a nod to the Trylon and Perisphere of the 1939 New York World's Fair. It's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, but the barker for "Da Roughhouse" (voiced by Clarence Nash, best known for voicing Donald Duck) is, fittingly, channeling Jack Mercer's Popeye. Jiminy Cricket introduces himself as "just a cricket singing my way from hearth to hearth" – this alludes to Charles Dickens's Christmas book The Cricket on the Hearth (which later got its own animated adaptation). | |

Adaptational Karma | |
Pinocchio / int_ca69cb4d | comment |
Adaptational Karma: Inverted with the Fox and the Cat. Unlike the book, without counting their miserable condition and pathetic existence from the beginning, they seem to avoid, at least onscreen, all punishment in the film. There was originally a scene where the two were going to be arrested for their crimes (most likely for their usual petty crimes on a daily basis in the Village), but this was cut from the final script and is instead left to the viewers to deduce their ultimate fate after Pinocchio's escape from Pleasure Island. However, there's the fact that many book and comic book adaptations released since just after the release of the film (and also the book ''Mouse Under Glass'') state, or better confirm that Geppetto found out of Pinocchio's presence on Pleasure Island and embarked with his ship accompanied by Figaro and Cleo to save him before getting swallowed by Monstro on his way to the island, and the only people who could know that information were Honest John & Gideon and probably some villagers who heard and saw the duo taking Pinocchio to the coach for Pleasure Island at the crossroads while loudly singing "Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee, It's Pleasure Isle For Me" in late evening, not to mention that Pleasure Island, as mentioned by Honest John at the Red Lobster Inn, is a notorious destination declared illegal by authorities. | |

Pinocchio / int_ca720408 | comment |
They Wasted a Perfectly Good Sandwich On Pleasure Island, when Lampwick and Pinocchio are outside the rough house tent, Lampwick throws a turkey away after taking just one bite. Likewise, in the same scene, Pinocchio has an ice cream in one hand and a pie in the other. He takes one bite out of the pie (he doesn't touch the ice cream) and then throws both the pie and ice cream away when he enters the rough house with Lampwick. As everything was free, they most likely thought they'd be able to get more food later. Averted with Pinocchio's apple. Honest John eats it and gives the core back to Pinocchio. | |

Pre-Violence Laughter: When Stromboli is told by his new money-making star Pinocchio that he is "going home to his father" and "coming back tomorrow", the puppeteer breaks out laughing. Pinocchio is puzzled, then uncertainly starts laughing as well, until Stromboli suddenly thrusts him into an empty birdcage, padlocks the door shut, and tells the puppet that this will be his home from now on, and threatens to chop him into firewood, using a discarded marionette to demonstrate, once Pinocchio fails to continue making money for him. | |

Pinocchio / int_d9cf40fa | comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here Jiminy is more than a little upset to see Pinocchio enjoying himself on Pleasure Island. It doesn't help that Lampwick laughs at him. However, Jiminy changes his mind later on when he sees that the donkeys used to be boys, and goes back for Pinocchio even after he started growing a donkey's tail and ears. | |

Breakout Character | |
Pinocchio / int_da0eeab5 | comment |
Breakout Character Jiminy Cricket. He has become a representative of Disney second only to Mickey himself, and about on par with Tinker Bell. Figaro the cat reappeared in some Disney shorts, usually as a pet of Minnie Mouse's (a role he also occasionally plays in the Mickey Mouse Comic Universe) and/or a foil to Pluto. | |

Adaptation Name Change: Mangiafuoco (Fire-eater) to Stromboli, the Fairy with Blue Hair to the Blue Fairy. Lampwick (Lucignolo) also has his name translated as "Candlewick" in some English versions of the book. Plus, the Talking Cricket is now Jiminy Cricket, the Fox and the Cat are Honest John Worthington Foulfellow and Gideon, and the unnamed Geppetto's cat has been given the name Figaro and a much more prominent role. | |

Contrived Coincidence: Works against Geppetto who searching for his son cried out for Pinocchio, but his shouting was drowned out by the thunderclap of a lightning strike. Works for the two later, when escaping Monstro who wasn't underwater and not too far offshore, otherwise their efforts would've been in vain. | |

The Coachman's hairy, shadowy minions as well. It's not clear if they're humans, anthropomorphic animals like Honest John and Gideon (probably gorillas based on their body proportions and black fur), demons, or something else. One illustration for a storybook based on the movie shows the thugs in a more well-lit scene, and it depicts them as human: they're ordinary men with hairy forearms who wear executioner's hoods. However, whether this is also the case in the original movie is still unclear. | |

Somewhere, an Entomologist Is Crying: Jiminy Cricket bears very little, if any, resemblance to an actual cricket. To be fair, however, Jiminy was originally depicted as an actual (that is, less anthropomorphized) cricket with toothed legs and waving antennae. But Walt wanted something more likable. So he assigned animator Ward Kimball to redesign the cricket. Kimball whittled away at any and all cricket-like appendages until Jiminy became, in Kimball's words, "a little man with an egg head and no ears. And the only thing that makes him a cricket is because we call him one." | |

Artistic License – Physics: While underwater, Pinocchio floats as expected. However, once he ties a rock to himself, he suddenly stops floating and can simply walk along the sea floor, dragging the rock behind him. And then he suddenly starts floating like normal again. | |

Non-Malicious Monster | |
Pinocchio / int_fd1b902c | comment |
While the book's counterpart of Monstro, the Terrible Dogfish, swallows Geppetto and Pinocchio, it's not portrayed as a malicious creature, but rather a wild animal uncaring of what it's causing while feeding itself, it doesn't even chase after the two when they escape (which they do more easily by taking advantage of the Dogfish sleeping with an open mouth due to its asthma). | |

Brick Joke: When Jiminy is dubbed Pinocchio's conscience by the Blue Fairy, he asks her if he would get a badge, and she replies, "We'll see." Jiminy does indeed get a badge in the final scene. | |

Innocently Insensitive: The Blue Fairy tells Pinocchio "Boys who won't be good might as well be wood", which seems rather harsh after Pinocchio has been told what Stromboli does to old marionettes. | |

Pinocchio / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog At the end of "I've Got No Strings", Stromboli pats Pinocchio on the head in gratitude as the crowds throw coins at the stage. Lampwick taking Pinocchio under his wing on Pleasure Island can be seen as this too. | |
