I think it was funny because the tone the show took was so off. Like they portray this as a sympathetic moment, when realistically if you hear that someone set fire to their parents, most people's minds don't go to 'you poor traumatized baby', they go to 'huge red flag, this person is unstable'.

Evil is only the wish to do good, even if those good intention are not wanted by the others, because everything works already. When this wish to do good is not granted, the obsession to do it and press it into the peoples makes the evil, evil. Without the notice of the evil person. The evil will see all others as evil not itself. And the others see themself threatened by the obsession of the person, that is so agressive to do good.

i was so rooting for the teachers. You dont need a lot of braincells to realize releasing a war criminal is bad. Like an interesting twist would be if the teachers were actually the ones who were the war criminals and Bloom and Beatrix were right, then we'd have the tension of "ohh who's lying" or smth. But no, it's a teen show. And also, the teachers kept Beatrix in a barn in the school? Why?? Also why did they put random students guarding her, why didnt they just, i dont know, DO 210958 SPELLS TO KEEP THE BARN LOCKED AND ALL??? Surely 3 experienced magic users would be able to put enough and strong spells so a first year student wont escape. Same for the secred passage to the war criminal lady's cell - they only did like 2 spells, one was the spell that paralyzes the people who enter /and it got deactivated after the first person who went there/ and the other was the spell keeping her asleep.

One of the worst things about the show was just how unbearable Bloom was as a friend. Literally every scene she had with the others, someone would be trying to talk about the problems they were having and Bloom would just cut them off. "Yeah that sucks that you can constantly feel the pain of everybody around you and there's no way to stop it, but did you know that I don't know who my parents are?" "Oh, you're having problems with your weight and body image making you feel like you're not good enough for anyone? At least you know how to control your powers." It was never-ending, she was the most self-obsessed and uncaring friend I could possibly imagine. Also hated how they vilified Aisha and had everyone turn on her just for being the only character that wasn't instantly backing Bloom's terrible decisions. "You don't think we should break a proven murderer out of prison for the purpose of breaking a super-powerful MASS MURDERER out of an even bigger prison, on the small chance that one of them knows who your parents were? Wow, you're a shitty friend." Aisha was the only character with any brains at all. The flashback story was entirely pointless too. So first we find out that Rosalind was put in prison unfairly because Dowling wanted to be Headmistress, I guess. Ok. Then, plot twist, we find out it was actually because she tricked Dowling and the other teachers into committing genocide on innocent people to take out the burned ones. But then, even bigger plot twist, apparently they weren't innocent people but they were... blood witches. Which we've never heard of before. So what was the point? Why did Rosalind bother tricking the teachers when she could have just told them there were burned ones AND blood witches?! When the teachers find out about the blood witches they're like "Oh damn I would have totally been cool with murdering them, if only we'd known then we wouldn't have put Rosalind in prison." BITCH WHAT. There was honestly nothing at all to gain from lying to them besides CrEaTiNg DrAmA.

Aisha was the best friend from all of them, Stella was extremely mean to Bloom and Musa and Terra didnt even speak to her, they shared like 2 scenes. But no, Aisha is the bad friend. And in the end they were just "ah okay we love you again Aisha" because,,,,, she fought like everybody else??? even tho they were all on the same side against the burned ones??? ok sure

I just feel like the whole "almost burned my parents" point could've been a bit more interesting if she actually turned to Aisha and said a chaotic and destructive part of her enjoyed it, as if they did not matter at all once they weren't useful to her. Perhaps, it would've made more sense to me why she slowly created a path of fire slithering towards the parents and, just as it reached them, she realized, "oh darn, I cannot be a baddy, I am the protagonist". Btw, I did watch Winx as a kid and the angsty and gloomy vibe of the show was a turn off, specially Bloom's characterization. She was positive, hardworking, humble and she officially had adoptive parents, but since the start she loved her family, no questions asked. My point is, if you wanna go dark, then go all the way, change it, don't deliver a cheap, patched up version of what it was, because the adaption will suffer for it. It should stand on its own.

You're totally right, the show would've been so much better if they'd just embraced Bloom being kind of a bad person rather than trying to pretend she was good. That would have made her so much more compelling and made for some great storylines as she tries to not become a terrible human being

And also Aisha was obviously the one who had her magic /and life/ under control, why would they suddenly make her loose control in the middle of the show? It would be better if she was Very Good at magic and ofc was praised by the teachers for it and that would be also good for her "teacher's pet" persona they tried to do. And then Bloom making Aisha teach her but also Aisha being all "to control it you need to be very calm and to know what youre doing and have clear mind" or some shit like that but Bloom going mad because she likes destruction and can control her powers best when destroying stuff...Also I hated how their magic was basically controlled by 2 things; anger or happiness.

So as a kid I was both Winx and Witch girl, but I did prefer the Witch comics over the Winx ones. Btw the Witch comics also had a similar story*, like Taranee was actually found in a burning building as a baby and adopted /like Bloom/, but her whole character kind of feared fire? And she was a lot more, idk, quiet and reserved, as if she feared her powers and was like "no thanks im fine". When Bloom /in the live action/ tries to be like this, but is very curious about her magic but also doesnt know shit and even after 2305982 potential accidents where she almost killed people, she still didnt realize she needed to take that seriously. *I just now realized Taranee had a similar story as Bloom FROM THE ORIGINAL SHOW, not Fate!Bloom. The original Bloom was found in a burning builing as a baby, because her adopdive dad was a firefighter and they decided to keep her.

I really enjoyed this video, but I think Terra deserved better friends than the other characters in this series. Does Musa have a reason for why only Terra's negative feelings affect her so much? Musa mentions other people's emotions, but rarely ever cringes at them when they come from someone who isn't Terra. I'd also like to know why Sam feels so calm to her when he seems like a regular teenage boy. Does he meditate? Does he practice mindfulness? Does he have an intensely analytical approach to life rather than an emotional one? (I'm genuinely looking far an answer). For someone who feels other people's emotions, Musa seems extremely indifferent to them. She literally feels Terra's insecurity when she is trying to get changed and asks, "Do you want me to turn around so you can change? Is that what this is about?" What a mean and insensitive thing to say! Dare I suggest that Musa even seemed pleased with herself when Terra left the room with her tail between her legs after that. Terra is characterised as a chatter box that everyone else is always having to shut up. It's okay to ask someone for space, or to leave the conversation for another time, it's not okay to be rude or mean in the way you do it. When Terra starts explaining her struggle with trying to get closer to Dane, Musa makes no real attempt to listen and leaves to spend time with the boyfriend she's keeping secret from Terra. She doesn't even seem that invested in giving her input on Dane's feelings towards her later. A good friend might have pointed out that Dane literally used her to get brownies, and then ditched. Even when the other Winx help Terra with her make up they say condescending things to her. Bloom makes a half-hearted attempt to call Beatrix out for posting the fat-shaming video about Terra, but then Bloom accepts the excuse that Beatrix didn't actually *say* anything. No, she just made it all public for anyone on her social media to watch. Like that's any better. (To be fair, Bloom also decided to continue working with a girl who killed her own accomplice, so it's not surprising she would give up defending a friend in order to further her own selfish goals.) At one point, Terra tries to give Musa a speaker so she wouldn't be "alone" in her world. That was definitely invasive, but it looks like the other moments where Terra gets upset are because her friends are ignoring her, or they made as if they were going to hang out with her, and then bailed. I don't blame her for being lonely and awkward with a bit of pent up anger or resentment. Being insecure is definitely a character flaw that she needs to work out, but the other characters were dismissive and cruel, so I see why it would be hard for Terra to overcome these things.

Where the specialists are concerned re: who they are and what they do, it kind of depends on the dub of the animated show you watch. In the original Italian and RAI dub they're heroes in training with a dash of wizard stuff but the 4Kids dub just made them a military school with no wizardry in the curriculum

It's funny seeing people freak out about this bcs growing up in Albania ALL of the little girls watched winx and I had no idea people in "the west" even knew about it so. I thought it was safe. But apparently nothing is safe from the "let's make it dark, edgy, and live action" phenomenon...

Winx was my childhood (together with W.I.T.C.H.) and I think it is really weird that they changed the characters and some powers here. Like, with a new plot and vibe and everything, the least you could do is keep the characters I think?

I can't believe that Whitewashing is still occurring in 2021. I loved how in the original cartoon, each of the fairies were modeled after a popular 2000's starlet, so that its target audience could feel represented, and the diversity felt authentic. Stella is Cameron Diaz, Flora Jennifer Lopez, etc. Aisha is the only person of colour in the main cast, yet she's regulated to babysitting everyone else, and she gets arguably the least characterisation of anyone.

As someone who was obsessed with the original show as a kid, I hate Fate even more. I love a fresh take on a classic. I love the darker tone. (knowing the kids that grew up on Winx are now about 20 years old). But man, they f****d up bad. Bad storyline. Bad writing. They absolutely butchered the characters. Stella in the original is really cool. She's fashion-obsessed, a total princess, but really sweet and bubbly. I hate they had to use the girl-likes-fashion-and-is-a-bitch stereotype. I only liked Musa and Sam, and even Musa is nothing like the source. So sad. Poor Stella.

Feeling personally attacked because I lowkey liked the series despite its cringe and exaggerated edgy tone (and I was a fan of the original cartoon). Definitely not happy about the whitewashing (Musa and Flora deserved better) and I strongly hope they address it in second season, but I did find the tv series overall quite entertaining and fun to watch (some scenes cracked me up) lol

Still can’t believe they finally made a live action version of my favorite childhood show and took out the best part: the fairy transformations which the whole fucking show had been centered around!!! It’s so infuriating. I would prefer it had not been made at all if the creators lacked the budget. Without the transformations it’s just a girlier (or in this case plain, edgy, and unremarkable) version of the magical high school tropes, which we have in abundance, from Harry Potter to Monster High and Ever After High and The Descendants and God knows what else they’re pooping out lately. 🤬

What annoyed me about Bloom sooooo much is that she constantly was being a hypocrite and overreacted to every little thing. She thought her problems were worse than others, and in the process hurt those characters by going after her desires. She was so emotional about "not knowing her real parents" and cried as if she was feeling loss constantly. But that's not realistic... cause she grew up with her mortal parents and love them, right? Yet she disregards that and makes it all about her and needing to know her real family. Which would be expected, but NOT TO THE EXTENT of totally blowing off her real parents, hurting all her friends and just being straight up rude.

The original show was soo much better it was about 6 roomates who learn to work together as bloom deals with finding out her personality and past,stella deals with divorced parents and wanting to be fashion designer when her parents expect her to be the perfect queen but her father still supports her nonetheless, flora deals with being too nice for the world and needs to stand up for herself,musa deals with her mothers death and how it effected her father,tecna with showing emotions,aisha(only season 1-3 and 7 cause season 4 made her just as horrible as netflix) was dealing with strict but caring parents and was independent and still wanted to save everyone. it was sooo cool! Everyone was awesome and had the best personality and dialogue and no info dumping! Also blooms backstory that her parents were killed by witches and her sister died saving her,while the witches descendants now are after bloom and her adoptive parents were soo good and NOT abusive! And the diversity was awesome musa was an asian and flora a latina and aisha a black person.( also flora and musa were my favourites and i always though flora as a latina was extremely pretty!! But what the hell was this terra,netflix clearly stated it was to hide whitewashing as she was originally casted as flora but then the name was changed.)

Literally outside of the "is it Winx Club or isn't it?" Debacle it's a terribly written show, utter garbage. And that is not even bringing up the fact they took out major fan favorite Characters replaced them with unlikable Characters and thought it was ok And not to be that person but the acting is not good its serviceable but not good in any way, shape or form. I also do not find any of the guys likeable or attractive and the fact they decided to have Stella act... like THAT? No no no.

I had a personal internal and external breakdown when this show came out because WInx Club was one of my most favorite child hood shows and sometimes I still watch it today. Same with Ben 10 and if they made a live action of it and ruined it as bad as they did winx, I probably would melt into a puddle of nothingness. Winx Club has a very special place in my heart and Netflix ruined it and I will never forgive them for it.

3:30 It's possible that this show was created in a manner similar to Will Smith's infamous "I Robot". The script for that movie had existed, in some form, for years before there was any talk about basing it on Asimov's novel. When the studio succeeded in buying the rights to the novel, they ordered the film-makers who were working on the movie to base it on the novel the rights for which have just spent a bunch of money on, so the film-makers just changed a few names and added a few small plot threads to make the movie superficially resemble the novel, and they kept on going. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that this TV Show began pre-production before there was any talk about basing it on "Winx", and that the creators of the show did little more than rename some characters when that decision was made.
