Released in [[The Golden Age of Animation|1940]], '''''Pinocchio''''' is the 2nd film in the [[Disney Animated Canon]], based very loosely on ''[[The Adventures of Pinocchio]]'' by Carlo Collodi.
Line 20 ⟶ 21:
* [[Adaptation Distillation]]: Even Carlo Collodi, author of the original story, thought his work was a mess that dragged out FAR more than intended due to [[Executive Meddling]]. Many agree that the Disney version is noticeably better in terms of storytelling.
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: The Blue Fairy had her hair changed from blue to blond, and changed her eyes to blue. Instead, her dress is blue.
* [[Adaptation Name Change]]:
** The Talking Cricket = Jiminy Cricket
** The Fairy with Turquoise Hair = The Blue Fairy
** The Terrible Dogfish = Monstro
* [[Adjective Animal Alehouse]]: [[Hilarious in Hindsight|The Red Lobster Inn]], which is where [[Complete Monster|the Coachman]] often tends to hang out whenever he's not kidnapping boys, taking them to Pleasure Island, turning them into donkeys and shipping them to either the salt mines or the circus.
* [[All Men Are Perverts]]: Jiminy Cricket goes from angrily not watching Pinocchio's show to excitedly watching it with ''eyeglasses on'' when he sees the French girl puppets doing the kick dance.
Line 38 ⟶ 43:
* [[Bad Guys Play Pool]]: One of the vices on Pleasure Island.
* [[Baleful Polymorph]]: {{spoiler|Boys in Pleasure Island turn into jackasses and get forced into labor.}}
* [[Barefoot Cartoon
* [[Bare Your Midriff]]: Gideon is a rare male example.
* [[Batman Can Breathe in Space]]: Pinocchio and Jiminy can breathe, and ''speak,'' underwater. Which makes it all the more confusing when Pinocchio drowns in less than a foot of water.
Line 98 ⟶ 103:
* [[Hammerspace]]: Gideon pulls the mallet he tries to hit Pinocchio with out of nowhere.
* [[Happily Ever After]]
* [[Harsh Life Revelation Aesop]]:
** [[Be Careful What You Wish For]] as the Blue Fairy puts it; she grants Gepetto's wish to turn his marionette Pinocchio into a real boy halfway, by bringing the marionette to life. She says that for Pinocchio to become real, he has to prove himself worthy. Turns out she had the right idea; Gepetto is now a father and is clearly out of his depth with how Pinocchio doesn't fear fire despite being made of wood, and thinks that his one-day old son is ready to go to school. If not for Pinocchio being a puppet, he likely would have been permanently transformed into a donkey on Pleasure Island.
** There are cruel people in the world that will exploit naïve boys [[For the Evulz]] or out of sheer greed. Part of Pinocchio's trouble is that he gets waylaid by conmen that want to use him for money.
* [[Have a Gay Old Time]]: "What do I look like, a ''jackass''?"
** "Hi-Diddle-Ee-Day, an actor's life is gay." Admittedly, this was long before the word gained its modern connotations.
