Nose growing?

[edit]

One of my popular manifestations of the influence of pinocchio in popular culture is the growth of the nose to indicate that somebody is lying. In other words: a long nose indicates a liar. There is a small reference of this in the article for "Lie" but i think another one should go here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.181.210.79 (talk) 07:13, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The New Adventures of Pinocchio

[edit]

In the 60's there was a series of Pinocchio cartoons that I remember. Here is a link to a site that perhaps someone could add. 163.166.135.45 (talk) 13:14, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Remove Tags

[edit]

This isn't a bad article. It just had poor structure. I added some sections and I think, when you break this article into sections, it makes a lot more sense. I think we should remove the tags about details and start looking for more instances where this story appears in popular culture.

Graphic novel

[edit]

There is a graphic novel called "Pinocchio Vampire Slayer" by Van Jensen and Dusty Higgins. This should be included in the article.

Video Games

[edit]

I noticed a reference to Pinocchio in the game World of Warcraft which may or may not merit inclusion in this article. In the Badlands there is a non-player character named Servo, who is a small robot that says "One day I'll be a real boy." This is an obvious reference to Pinocchio.
