Pinocchio (Disney film)/Fridge

Fridge Horror

 * On top of that, there's the fact that.
 * Fridge Logic: It would seem that the film intended that Perhaps they meant it that way so
 * Probably, but it's still Disproportionate Retribution. It would teach a much better lesson if.
 * Perhaps Disney went too over the top. Maybe back in the days where Pinocchio was aired, bad/naughty kids was considered a serious matter, so Disney decided to be as Anvilicious as possible or opts the Scare'Em Straight path as in Needless to say, Disney might've gone over the top...
 * Alternatively,
 * Pinocchio: Looking at the coach taking the children to Pleasure Island, it appears to be pulled by donkeys. Thus, little boys are kidnapped and changed into donkeys, losing everything they ever loved in life and on top of that, some are forced to pull the coach of the man who changed them in the first place and carry other children so that they can share the same monstrous fate as themselves. (In the book, this is definitely stated.)
 * And the Coachman is a Karma Houdini. For all we know, he could still be turning kids into donkeys and selling them off to the circus, salt mines, etc.
 * And we never do find out what happened to all the boys who were turned into donkeys. Most of them probably spent the rest of their lives as donkeys!
 * Flat-out stated in the book, where we eventually see Pinocchio's companion from Pleasure Island worked to death on a farm.
 * Remember near the beginning when Pinocchio touched a burning candle? What if Geppetto hadn't been there to put out the flame on his finger?
 * The book answers that one. The finger would have burned off, and Geppetto would have had to make a new one. Such a finger (or foot in the book) would probably be paralyzed and numb for a while as Pinocchio's circulation rebuilds the tissue in the cell walls.
 * I don't know about you, but I always got this weird and creepy sense that the Coachman was an allusion to pedophilia and child trafficking. That's what always crept me out about this whole operation. I mean, Pleasure Island??? *Shudder*
 * Again, with the boys who were turned into donkeys, it is quite clear that the ones who could not talk were sold to various places (its written on the boxes) such as salt mines. However, what happened to the ones who could still talk? Its probable that they were sold to glue factories so they would be killed in order to stop them talking...
 * They probably pulled the coach. Why waste a good donkey?
