History Film / Pinocchio2022Disney

** The smoking including Tobacco pipes, cigars and beer mugs have been removed and replaced Beer with Root Beer in the Pleasure Island scene.

* AnachronismStew: Despite being supposedly set in the 19th century, There have been clocks that resemble Disney Characters that their movies weren't released until a century later, In Pleasure Island, When the kids are eating food, some of the children are seen eating hamburgers and Hot Dogs, which were in made in Germany in the 19th century, but weren't in rest of the world until the late 19th century and early 20th century, The burger on the bun wasn't in 1904.

* BrokenAesop:
** One of the points of the movie (and the original story) was Pinocchio's nose growing every time he told a lie, with the lesson that lying is bad. This film, however, ends up undermining that message when Pinocchio actually takes advantage of his growing nose to get the key to his cage and escape from Stromboli. The film also adds a loophole where Pinocchio can shrink his nose by apologizing, instead of him having to tell the truth. So instead of "lying is bad", the lesson is: it's okay to lie to get what you want, so long as you apologize after.
** Most of the adaptational changes to the story seem to go out of their way to absolve Pinocchio from actually doing anything bad on purpose (he doesn't skip school and instead gets kicked out by a deranged headmaster and the laughing kids, gets kidnapped and peer-pressured into going to Pleasure Island and doesn't do anything particularly bad there, and so on)... but he still gets all the karmic punishment his other incarnations earned, rendering the old "be a good kid ''or else''" message of every version of Pinocchio completely moot.
** While it's understandable that the filmmakers didn't want to show children drinking and smoking, mellowing out Pleasure Island ends up changing the original aesop from: "if you act like an ass, you'll become one" to the very bleak: "kids should not have fun".

* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: In this version, Geppetto is a widower who, for unknown reasons, lost his son as well. This is why he’s unwilling to sell his clocks (as they remind him of his late wife), and he created Pinocchio to cope with his son’s death.

** AnachronismStew: Despite being supposedly set in the 19th century, There have been clocks that resemble Disney Characters that their movies weren't released until a century later, In Pleasure Island, When the kids are eating food, some of the children are seen eating hamburgers and Hot Dogs, which were in made in Germany in the 19th century, but weren't in rest of the world until the late 19th century and early 20th century, The burger on the bun wasn't in 1904.
* BeautyInversion: Luke Evans looks rather unkept and with a prominent overbite in his role as the Coachman.

* BecomeARealBoy: This is Pinocchio's goal after he's brought to life. [[spoiler: However, this is left to interpretation at the end, as Pinocchio is seen becoming a real boy, but the transformation on-screen is not fully visible, happens in the distance, and may be metaphorical.]]

** The painted castle backdrop seen in Stromboli's puppet show looks an awful lot like [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Sleeping Beauty Castle]].
** Geppetto's cuckoo clock collection has turned into a CameoCluster of characters from various Disney films ranging from fairy tale classics like ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'' and ''WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty'' to more anachronistic picks like ''WesternAnimation/{{Dumbo}}'', ''Franchise/TheLionKing'', ''Franchise/ToyStory'' and ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit''.

** While seeing the Coachman’s henchmen capturing the donkeys, Jiminy hides behind his umbrella like [[WesternAnimation/PeterPan Wendy, John, and Michael do when the Lost Boys are approaching]].
** Pinocchio escapes from the cage by lying to use his PinocchioNose to allow Jiminy to reach the keys, much like the MissionIMpossibleCableDrop in ''WesternAnimation/Shrek2''.

Simply put, It has the same plot as the original film, while also including new/altered elements and characters. The film was released as a Creator/DisneyPlus Original on September 8, 2022.

** Although the scene was not in the film, it is possible Honest John and Gideon like the original film helped the Coachman capture the children via bribery. However, in the original film they collected only Pinocchio and showed to be very afraid of being caught and punished by the law for having any involvement and business with Pleasure Island.
