    Pinocchio hasn’t been remade nearly as many times as Batman or Spider-man. We’ve seen fewer Pinocchio related movies than STAR WARS related movies. I don’t see how one could be fed up with this remake and not all the rest. The last Pinocchio movie was released in 1940.

    The ethnocentrism sometimes... Adventures of Pinocchio with Nino Manfredi and Gina Lollobrigida (1972 - my reference), Pinocchio by Roberto Benigni (2009), and Pinocchio by Matteo Garrone (2020) director of Ghomorra etc. 

  2. After a 3 year searh, I finally was able put my hands on the toughest Smurfs comic book of all : Spirou 1107 (July 1959) with the uncut first solo Smurfs story that came as a loose supplement. 

    Kids were instructed to cut and staple it into a mini comic book. This operation included cutting the back cover of the magazine where the cover of the mini comic is printed. Very few intact copies have survived...This story "Les Schtroumpfs Noirs" ("The Black Smurfs") is a zombie-like story that was renamed (and recolored!) "The Purple Smurfs" in the United States.
