History YMMV / Geppetto

* EvilIsSexy: You can't go wrong with Music/{{Usher}} as the charismatic Pleasure Island carnie leader.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: "Since I Gave My Heart Away"

** After the Blue Fairy turns Pinochhio into a real boy:

* OlderThanTheyThink: The 1972 Italian TV miniseries directed by Luigi Comencini was an adaptation that gave more focus on Geppetto (played by Nino Manfredi) and added new scenes that show his point of view while Pinocchio is away.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The whole soundtrack. The cast can really sing! As an added bonus, the musical song score was written by Stephen Schwartz, the person responsible for such hits as "[[Theatre/{{Wicked}} Defying Gravity]]", "[[Theatre/{{Pippin}} Corner of the Sky]]", and [[WesternAnimation/{{Pocahontas}} the lyrics to "Colors of the Wind"]]!

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: After the Blue Fairy turns Pinochhio into a real boy:
-->'''Stromboli''': A real boy! Who needs a real boy? Nobody will pay to see a real boy. You can't do this to me!
-->'''Blue Fairy''': Of course I can. I am the Blue Fairy.

* OneSceneWonder: Wayne Brady as Lezarno the Magician; Rene Auberjonois as Professor Buonrigazzo; Usher as the Ringleader.
* SoOkayItsAverage: Creator/DrewCarey's infamous role as the titular character is balanced out by Creator/BrentSpiner's spectacular performance as [[BigBad Stromboli]], and the rest of the film doesn't have much else to offer than a few {{One Scene Wonder}}s and - as pointed out by WebVideo/MusicalHell - [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot some wasted ideas that aren't expanded upon]].

* NeverLiveItDown:
** The movie was a notorious bomb that dogged Creator/DrewCarey for a few years; even the ''Series/WhoseLineIsItAnyway'' gang took several shots at it.
** Wayne Brady, another ''Whose Line'' cast member, seems to have escaped the same fate. Usher too, obviously.

* TearJerker: Near the end, when [[spoiler: Stromboli attempts to take Pinocchio away, most of the song Since I Gave My Heart Away.]]

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Brent Spiner's Stromboli for serving up a glorious helping of HamAndCheese.

* HamAndCheese: Again, Brent Spiner's over-the-top performance is one of the film's few bright spots.

** In the same scene, when Geppetto learns that the Blue Fairy can't help him any longer, he makes another wish--he wants her to transform him into "wood, or stone, or clay," because he [[spoiler: can't bear the thought of losing his son]]. Yes--Geppetto is ''wishing for death.''
