#gdt pinocchio

[musing-magpie]

Actually obsessed with the fact that the last three Best Animated Film winners have NOT been from Disney. Disney has had a chokehold on that category for far too long tbh

god wait I just realized that the fascist italy training camp section from Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio is a metaphorical version of pleasure island/the land of toys from the original story

instead of an island that lures young boys with mischievous fun and then turns them into literal donkeys, it's a fascist training ground that lures young boys with ideas of patriotism and glory, only to use them as cannon-fodder when fighting breaks out

livestock to the slaughter

Pinocchio the wooden boy

I LOOVE GDT’s rendition of Pinocchio, it’s my fav version.

From 2024

Keeping my tradition of putting La Muerte with some other representation of Death, this time the Guillermo Del Toro's 'Pinocchio' got a turn. I feel like they're the introvert/extrovert duo where they end up exhausted when they meet but they enjoy each other's company nevertheless.

:) I'm sorry.

So let me get this straight, it's okay for Taylor Swift to keep releasing variants in order to keep other artists out of the #1 spot on the billboards, but it's not okay for Disney to rush-release their live action Pinocchio to block Guillermo Del Toro's version?

Pinocchio and his new brothers

[lopposting]

Carlo in both Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio and Lies of P

He will be remembered </3

[vanessafangirl13]

Happy first anniversary Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio

[rolanslide]

Rewatched GDT Pinocchio for the first time in awhile and I forgot how crazy it makes me. The first thing Pinocchio knows is that he is Gepettos son and Pinocchio loves him but when Gepetto sees him he's horrified and disgusted and upset and angry. And he doesn't understand why, but he does know that Gepetto loves Carlo. So he promises to be just like Carlo, because he just wants Gepetto to love him. He doesn't know why Gepetto doesn't love him and why strangers hate him, so he does whatever he can to make sure that they like him. And that means lying and leaving and dancing and doing what he's told. He just wants to be safe, and loved.

Just a reminder to fans of these stop-motion masterpieces:

As much as the public praises big-name auteurs like Tim Burton, Charlie Kauffman, and Guillermo del Toro; we should take the time to appreciate their fellow co-directors, who all have accomplished backgrounds in animation.
