Ok for me the big neon flashing light bulb that went off with August the ‘writer’ having shinsplints was, that he’s sharply increased the amount or length of exercise that he’s used to rapidly. Why would he do that? He’s meant to be a writer not a fitness junky, so what the oats is he doing all of a sudden now he’s in SB that he’d have developed shinsplints was my question.

Personally I dont think much of the evidence logically leads to Pinocchio – Why…

The Blue fairy was very specific on this part & I will quote direct from her here “The enchantment is indeed powerful, but all power has its limits & this tree can protect only one”. For me that sums it up it can protect only one being, Not two from the curse.

Also the newspaper said 7yr old “local” boy finds ….. Not 7yr old orphan finds (for those that say Pincchino went through the same wardrobe as Emma).

IMO the whole reason pincchino was Able to become a real boy at all, was the fact he was made of enchanted wood (-if he even was made of enchanted wood- he could simply be made of wood & the BF waved her wand twice n poof real boy) & so once he becomes a real boy the enchantment ends, just as it did for the tree/wardrobe- it’s powerful enchantment worked once & then was used up, otherwise Pinocchio could go backwards & forwards from wood to real whenever.

Also August says “I dont lie” or words to that effect repeatedly to Emma- well he does so lie, he lied to Ruby in the diner when he said he was in Nepal & that the temples were over run with Lemurs- Lemurs live only on Madagascar Island, they are found nowhere else on earth (naturally). He also said he had his/’my’ bike- so man oh man, he must Love that bike because most people would just hire transport to use when overseas rather than taking their own with them- it’s not like he can ride from Nepal to Maine after all.

I think I read (or saw) an interview, where one of the EP said “listen closely to August in the diner when he talks about Lemurs, then you'll see how trust worthy he is” – My 1st thought was we know he made a bald-face-lied, Lemurs arent in Nepal, so he cant be as trustworthy as he obviously Wants Emma to believe he is.

& last but not least lol, Doesnt the kid who plays pinocchio have very bright chestnut or Red hair? Bit of a stretch to go from ginna to dk brown dont you think.
Someone put up Bae & Pinocchio photos with August’s & he looks Nothing like Pinocchio at all, if anything it gives credence to the August is Bae camp – as the resemblance is rather solid (& Im not a big August is Bae camper either lol) 😉
