Description
This is my favorite scene of the '96 Steve Barron's movie "THE ADVENTURES OF PINOCCHIO": when the gaint whale was going to eat Pinocchio...In the film the whale is actually a man named Lorenzini (the film's version fo the character Mangiafuoco/Stromboli) who is the main villain throughout the movie. At first, he is a highly ambitious puppet-master who also happens to own Pleasure Island.
That park features a fountain with magical stream of water that will transform you into whatever animal you act like (boys who act like jack-asses are turned into donkeys).
Ironically, Lorenzini himself is knocked into the water by Pinocchio and undergoes his own transformation which turns him into a sort of Monstro.
It's a freaky transformation too XD

Well, we will end it when the time will come, I'll never forget to finish this discussion.
However right now and in these days I have other things to do, things that are more important and serious and I can't distract myself and I even don't have the movies near me where I currently stay, so at least be patient, please. We'll finish this, just not now.

I know, it's Steve Barron. He also directed the music videos for "Take On Me" and "Billie Jean".
I wish Jim Henson was still alive and made the Pinocchio movie with Barron like they were planning to.

Both center on the father-and-son relationship. The main villain to both wanted to use boys for their own needs (one to raise as minions and the other for profit), made setups to attract them (games, music, treats), have a history with the main charachter's father (Master Splinter for murdering his master/owner and Geppeto for trying to misuse/destroy his puppets), and their desire for vengence becomes their downfall in the end. Leona's role as an ally reminds me of how April and Casey come to heroes' side.
In fact, the 1990 film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles appears to pay tribute to Pleasure Island by showing an underground lair ran by the antagonistic Foot Clan, being a place of underage drinking, smoking, gambling, blasting offensive music and playing video games. The teens are lured there to be manipulated into becoming part of the Foot Clan. Foreshadowing The Adventures of Pinocchio 1996?
Good comparissons, right?

Lorenzini was meant to be an amalgam ofΒ Mangiafuoco, the Coachman, and the Terrible Dog-Fish (who Monstro was based off of). Played by the great Udo Kier, do you know where his name comes from?

killb94 In reply to Fail-Seeker [2016-04-24 08:01:49 +0000 UTC]
if I'm not mistaken Lorenzini was Carlo Collodi's full name, right?
Guess Frozen isn't the only movie that named the villain after the creator of the story for some reason lol

What Are We Made Of by Brian May and Sissel KyrkjebΓΈ: [link]
What are we made of?
Can we know what we will be?
(What are we made of?)
Think again
There's a wind of change is blowing
There's a fire deep inside
There's a place we could be going
If we could only get it right
And the river keeps on flowing
And the morning lights the sky
But if they said it would be easy
I guess they must have lied
What are we made of?
Can we know what we will be?
What are the chances
I can find a better path, a better life, a better me?
(What are we made of?)
If you think you know the answer
Turn around, think again
Whatever were you thinking?
Could you turn you life around?
When you know your world is sinking
Can you find the solid ground?
Is there really a road to heaven?
We'll find it
And a road leads down below
Some way, somewhere
Does anything really matter?
If only we could know
What are we made of?
Is it written in the sand?
Where are we sailing?
To a strange and distant land
Take my hand, sail with me
(What are we made of?)
'Cos I have to understand
What are we made of?
Can we know what we will be?
What are the chances
There's a place for you and me?
(What are we made of?)
Just for this moment, take your life into your hands
You'll decide what you are made of
What it is that you can be
Think again, my friend
Turn around, think again.

Maybe it was too difficult to make. Back than the computer graphics weren't so adviced as today (Just look at Pepe, he look like a fucking videogame!) and probably making the Whale animatronic jump out from the water and see it full was difficult and it would have looked silly.
But I prefer how they did in the movie, it makes you wonder with charm how immense cold the whale be

Hey, I got a better idea instead of making that shugarcoated request:

killb94 In reply to Makosharkman [2011-12-17 14:11:31 +0000 UTC]
I'm sorry, But as a free person and FREE artist, I can approve to make a request if I WANT TO.
So, I changed my mind on your requestm I won't d it because Lorenzini is a BADASS and cool villian, and he made very evil deeds. I prefer to have his fate unknown rather than knowing it (that's another reason of why do I hate the sequel) and having him coming back like a pussy and ask sorry like a lesbian in distress! Also, he has a VERY anger-looking face expression, if I only try to change it, he would be totally unrecognizable and look gay!
And making him look gay is WORSE than making him rest a whale forever!
Would you like to have VOLDEMORT from Harry Potter coming back like a bloody pussy and ask "Harry, sorry if I killed some of your best friends and ruined your childhood! ^W^ Peace and Love brother"??? I WOULD NOT LIKE THAT!!!
Just wait few days and you'll see this drawing of Lorenzini eating Pinocchio will look better than now!

well your dision nearly maid me miss a date when I read this I was taken of guard that my brain collaps and I forgot about everthing else that was important Thanks alot.
and you dont know that for sure just because you think he will look gay if you drewm him apoalgizing doesn;t it will look that way you cant just back down just because of Crazy thought that came into your mind.
very well Voldermort coming back from the dead to apalogize to Harry Potter will do no complains.

yes I have it look pretty inetnce I thought you were going to re draw the picture I didn't know you were going to reanimate the old one.
also since your not going to be drawing the picture of Lorenzini return could you at least tell me what the Surprise was?
and speaking of Lorenzini here is a idea you might like you could also draw The whale Speating Pinocchio and Gepetto out into the air like in the movie or you could draw Lorenzini crawing out on the beach after he eventually gets turn back and he is Vomiting on the shores of the beach because I am sure he eat alot fish and maybe even people and I am sure when Lorenzini will turn back to human when ever that will be I am sure he will be Sick To His Stomach.
