Reasons to watch Del Toro's Pinocchio
Its stop motion
The stop motion was done by people who worked on The Adventures of Mark Twain
Its Guillermo Del Toro's passion project that he's been trying to have made for over a decade
It was co-written by Patrick Mchale who made Over The Garden Wall
The designs of not just Pinocchio but the Blue Fairy, the humans and the sets are incredible
The entire score was done in wood instruments
It satirizes propaganda and how it is used to manipulate impressionable minds
Its pretty fucking anti-war
It tackles themes of loss, death, war & abuse
It does not fuck around when it comes to mature subjects
We need more support for stop motion films, its a great animation style and has so much potential that we hardly ever see

Haven't seen anyone making pins of the Del Toro Pinocchio spirits/angels so I might just have to do it myself! If you've seen any please let me know so I can buy them thanks

"I still wish I haven't left Papa alone like that, I miss him so much"
"Hush now, It's clear this wasn't your fault..."
"I'm sure he misses you too..."
The idea came to be thanks to a post from @l-of-p believe me, you don't know how fast I opened FireAlpaca after reading that post and now I feel like crying, I'm surprised I never thought about this crossover dynamic before
