Just when we thought an old story couldn’t get any newer, Del Toro swooped in and gave us a whole new Pinocchio to dissect. From Jiminy Cricket’s recognizable name and attire to Pinocchio’s nose and quest to become a real boy, you won’t believe the ways that this story was changed. Not only are we seeing how filmmakers can take the reins and switch things up big time, but we’re even getting new backstories and theories that are seriously making us question the original.

Anybody think Disney's version is better?
-
Saying Disney is original and DelToro is a copy makes no sense. Both are versions of a book and DelToro’s much more accurate.
-
There’s no ‘copy’ because Pinocchio is on the public domain 😂😂😂
-
The thumbnail shows both disrespect towards Del Toro, and a complete lie. Disney was in fact NOT the original for Pinocchio. Both Del Toro’s and Disney’s movie are inspired by a book. There is little similarities in style, and in story if comparing the two movies. One is completely hideous, and more CGI than it is even live action. It has a more wholesome touch to it than Del Toro’s. And over all just being the same as the first Pinocchio they’ve made in the past, just far worse when it comes to the style and effort. Del Toro’s far more accurate when it comes to the story of Pinocchio when looking at the book. It takes darker turns than Disney’s. Del Toro by far made the best Pinocchio out of the three this year.
-
Del Toro’s is the best version of Pinocchio
-
Del Toro definitely has the best take on Pinocchio more than Disney could ever had
-
Del Toro's is the best by far in my opinion
-
I'm not sure if you're joking or are you really unaware that Disney's Pinocchio is not the original, but that the original is a book and that there have been many live action and animations of Pinocchio long before Disney's, obviously Del Toro's is not going to look like Pinocchio's Disney because he is based from the book
-
... Thumbnail seems kinda disrespectful...Considering how trash Disney's latest effort is.
-
That’s not the original. There have been many Pinocchio’s before there was a Disney Pinocchio.
-
Not watching the video simply because of the ridiculous thumbnail suggesting that DelToros wonderful and imaginative is a "copy" of Disneys soulless cash grab when the Pinocchio story is 130 years old with countless adaptations
-
There are a LOT of problems with the thumbnail. First of all, the first photo is completely wrong; Disney’s remake of Pinocchio is not the original. While I haven’t seen either Disney versions, I’ve heard almost nothing positive about the remake and it does not deserve to be associated with the word “original” or mixed up with the REAL original 1940 film. Second, Del Toro’s film is in NO WAY a copy. There are hardly any similarities other than the general story, and even that is vastly different from either of Disney’s films. Del Toro’s film is not even lightly inspired by Disney’s, it’s a completely different film and shouldn’t be thought of as the same movie at all, let alone a copy. The remake is not the original, and Del Toro’s film is not a copy. The thumbnail of this video is blatantly false and should be changed.
-
Of course the song couldn't be used in Del Toro's version. It's flat-out owned by Disney.
-
Pinocchio is not even from Disney lmaooo
-
The stop motion version of Pinocchio is the one I appreciate and admire the work and effort they put into it than just CGI
-
The Disney one isn't the original, both Del Toro's and Disney's are adaptations from the novel by Carlo Collodi. Honestly they're both different from the original book, but the Gullielmo Del Toro's one is more interesting than the Disney's one
-
GASPS HOW DARE YOU CALL DELTORRO'S PINOCCHIO A COPY
-
Finally, Jiminy finally looks like a cricket😌
-
Fun fact: It took 15 years for Del toros pinnocchio to be made
-
This movie took 15 goddamn years to create. Show some fucking respect. I loved this movie. It was so dark. It was very thought provoking and taught a great lesson. The amount of effort put into it was absurd. The animation is amazing. Disney was not the original Pinocchio. It was a book. You are aware of that, right?
