LIVE POLL: Termite Riddled and Dry-Rotted to the Pinocchio Core

Firstly, an admission of ... not necessarily guilt (I haven't rated the 2022 Disney live-action remake and I will likely never get around to watching it). But it feels I am exploiting its extraordinary ratings fate. Is it a genuine ratings bombings? I genuinely don't know because I can't figure why it would be targeted suchly (TM pending). The possibility still remains and I have in other https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/ threads have actively been asking IMDb and the admins to investigate such fraudulent practices.

I'm running with this suggestion because of Schadenfreude. I can't see it pulling from its immediate ratings nose dive. This poll suggestion will not be a Type IV PFD to save the film's abysmal ratings.

Finally, if someone has a genuine/noteworthy (I'm using genuine too much. Thesaurus much??) desire to veto this suggestion, I will consider killing it.

Which of these Pinocchio centered movies* best deserves a proper Rifftrax riff treatment?

*Feature length movies/videos/TV movies under the IMDb rating of 5.6.

I will add the appropriate Rifftrax context later (prepoll publication of course). I whiplashed just changed the question before initially saving the list.

@Tsarstepan ,

Why should I be surprised that there is an X-rated film loosely based on Pinocchio?

The rarest of dodo birds.

I think it's the first time I've had one on my poll suggestion.

@Tsarstepan​ ,

Thank you for adding the discussion link.

Too bad that the animators at Termite Terrace did not produce a Pinocchio.
