This must mean they cast Michael Buffer as a show man and weren't confident he'd carry the movie.

It doesn't look - bad - but it looks like "why did we need this" still.

Unless it's just been too long since we traumatized a new generation with the donkey island scenes.

I mean the last instance would be from Willow, and the entire army being turned into pigs. So I guess we're due.

When I saw the blue fairy I was like welp that’s the next “woke Disney” protest incoming from the Trumpers lol

I hate that i really like this. Tom Hanks is to damn awesome to pass up no matter what he's in, and it looks like hes gonna kill it. Again. And i like Luke Evans' work too. The blue fairy is...an odd choice.

I don’t see it topping the original. The movie had the balls to show kids drinking and smoking.


Donkey scene.

I think I'll skip this and watch this stop motion animation version on Netflix come December - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinocc...animated_film)

As of just checking atm, for whatever reason, the Disney+ trailer of Pinocchio has 90K dislikes and 24k likes.

Hard not to just see Tom Hanks in a horrible wig and mustache
