I have now noped out of two versions of Pinocchio, despite the second one being Guillermo del Toro's and stop motion animation--a director and a medium I love. I think I don't like the story of Pinocchio--I know how it goes and don't want to go. Also, I think I am tired unto death of stories about fathers and sons. I have been, we have been, drowning in father and son narratives all our lives.
Give me daughters, girls, women, crones (trans women are women, btw), nonbinary adventurers, mothers and sons, sisters, and ensemble found-family teams. I think that's one reason I enjoy shows like Wednesday, I'm so happy to be with an interesting girl character, doing things in a fantastic world narrative about her and her friends--more girls, and a bee-loving boy with mothers.
