artificial life running amok- a morality gap- sort of Frankenstein ( much older) toned down for kids- with the Monstro the Whale ( originally a shark in the novel!) borrowed from the Biblical tale of Jonah.
It has the same theme as Pinocchio and DARYL, an artificial boy who wants to be 'real.'
Pinocchio merchandise can be found in the Disney theme parks in a store called 'Geppetto's Toys and Gifts'. They sell Pinocchio dolls, shirts, and toys, among other items.
Artificial life = the theme is sort of a watered down Frankenstein for kids, though Pinocchio is not a monster- he does have morality problems- corrected in part by Jiminy Cricket.
The song 'When You Wish Upon A Star' originally came from the animated film 'Pinocchio'. It was sung by Cliff Edwards in the character of Jiminy Cricket. It was written by Leigh Harline and Ned Washington. Later, it became the signature tune of the Disney organisation.
The theme is basically a moral message that people will be rewarded for being brave, loyal, and honest.
