ClassixFan I actually saw this film rather late in life, most folks seem to have seen this as children, but I was into my 30s before I saw it and the big kid that I am....I love it.The opening song and 'It's a Goody...Good Morning' are my favorites, but heck, they are all catchy little tunes. I think the animation is very good, is it me or did animation of the 60s still have that 'innocent' look? This is one of those films, where you hear about it, but until you actually see it, you can't believe it. Kind of along the same vein as, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians or the Mexican film, Santa Claus. Hey, 71 minutes of your life is definitely worth it, if you've never seen it and if you have young kids, use them as an excuse to check it out!
Kenny I saw this on the big screen. It changed my life. Well, OK. Perhaps I would have become a Sci-Fi fan anyway, but at age six, this was the coolest thing I had ever seen. I should note that when this came out, I still thought Clutch Cargo was at least moderately cool. Years after I had seen it, I had dreams about it. As an adult, I remembered this little tale whenever I saw a reference to "Pinocchio". (Disney tosses them around like beads at Mardi Gras) It was so obscure that I thought I might have dreamed it up myself. I was excited to have unearthed this gem and bring it into the light of today. I think it might be fun to see this again just for the nostalgia. Then again, I've listened to some of the music I liked so much back then and found it just... scary. Perhaps this should remain wrapped in the rose colored cloak of the past as my first full length, animated, Sci-fi feature film. For that alone, I'll give it six stars.
jandimin wow i was beginning to think i'd imagined the whole thing. i actually did see this in the 70's as a child , i was beginning to think this was some sort of shared delusion with my brother.....i'm glad it's real ;)
Mister-6 I have seen "Pinocchio in Outer Space".Two or three times, in fact.And it is the only full-length feature up to that time that tried to make a sequel to Disney's long-time classic.What do you mean, you've never heard of it?!Well, it features Gepetto and the Blue Fairy from the original, but that's about as nostalgic as it gets. This time, they hybrid Pinocchio with James Bond and he must save earth from a "space whale" (I know, that's what I said, too) because he has been destroying our planet's satellites and now threatens to do the same with anyone who crosses him.So now Pinocchio has been thrust into the space age with only his wits and Nurtle the Turtle (from the land of Twurtle-Dee, if I recall correctly) to help him overcome this monstrous foe.The whole story is kind of bland, much like the direction, and one plot point: wasn't he already a boy at the end of the first movie? Oh well....At least this movie has one saving grace: Arnold Stang as the voice of Nurtle. If you don't know his name, just look him up. I'm sure once you see him or hear that whiny voice you'll go, "oh, yeah!". I did.Two stars for "Pinocchio". After this one, they should have done "Pinocchio in a Toothpick Factory".Could have had a million sequels.
