HOO-BOY
Just watched the trailer and, wow I haven’t seen this big of a fuck-up in a while:
First off, WHY THE HELL ARE FLORA(oh I’m sorry “Terra”) AND MUSA WHITE????? They’ve been slowly making Flora lighter and lighter, but goddamn. Who made this decision?????
Why is the fashion so bland? 
Why is the magic so boring looking?
Why is the magic treated like sorcery and not like, fairy magic accessed from several different planets across the universe??? Like it’s such a cool concept that was never really explored and they just threw it away???
Why do the characters look like adults? Like if this is taking place during freshman year, they should look wayyy younger. Tf do ya’ll think teenagers look like?
Why does Sky look like Chad Everyteen.
No one wanted dirty sexy-times in Winx Club.
WHERE IS TECHNA?????(off on vacation enjoying NOT being in this)
Why does Alfea look like a dirty old mansion? IT’S A FAIRY SCHOOL.
What’s wrong with the aesthetic???? Why is it so dark and dreary?? Even the witches in the original had color to them.
I’m all for darker stories, but this is not how you do it. We want cool action with pretty sparkles and fashion. Not edgy, “why was I born”, riverdale, bullshit.
Why is it so dark? Like I can barely see shit. 
Seriously, Bloom’s home planet was destroyed and she was orphaned as the last of her kind. Witches use living things as a catalyst for magic. The Trix literally raised the dead to take over the universe. Nabu actually fucking died. Stella’s parents are divorced. Musa’s mom is dead. Aisha’s entire home was corrupted and taken over by a bloodthirsty tyrant while her people were turned into raging beasts. There is a LARGE supply of dark shit to cover. Explore THAT and not “I have cool fire powers so now I’m gonna be sad about it and sulk in a foggy forest that never has sunlight for some reason”
I’m sorry but Stella looks like she’s gonna be a diet Diaspro and I hate it.
Once again, why are Flora and Musa WHITE.
Where are the transformations? Or wings? Or literally anything that says they’re fairies? Are there even fairies or is their magic gonna be some barely-explained ambiguous bullshit cuz fairies and magical girl transformations are lame and for babies????
I heard about this a while ago, and I was excited. But man I wish this didn’t exist...

i have decided to live blog my reactions to the new netflix winx saga bc i heard it's apparently bad?? currently all i know abt it was they replaced techna and flora and also theres white-washing and fatphobia?? idk anyway i'm starting with ep 1
thoughts:
its definitely not 'colorful magical girls' like the original cartoon was
"feckin' sheep"
OH ITS DEFINITELY NOT COLORFUL MAGICAL GIRLS WHAT THE HELL THAT WAS A FULL ON SHEEP (?) CORPSE YOOOO I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT???? MAN IM NOT SCARED OF GORE BUT THAT CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD
big scary beast pog?
yeah,,, theres gore in there. rip farmer/shepherd dude
okay i have to give them credit for that pretty dope intro. its not the winx club theme but hey i kinda like it
ooooh this music is dope. time to add it to my spotify playlist
hmmm im assuming redhead girl is bloom?
girl with the plants is definitely flora (or whoever she is now)
blonde is deffo stella or smthin
girl with the headphones is musa i think
who's the dude?? i dont remember the names of the dudes in the original winx
Are they still using Bloom's backstory as like the princess (?) of a kingdom??
wAIT DO THEY STILL HAVE THEIR PETS?? LIKE BLOOM'S BUNNY??
"Wow. You are so lost. I'm impressed by your confidence in the face of complete ignorance. Issue is, you're overcommitted. I mean, you're essentially running." Did I somehow miss some backstory?? What is up with this dude what is going on??
man i dont like the blond dude?? what is going on?? i am confused??
i don't remember bloom's whole backstory but i think the show's still using it??
dude did a full 180
"Sorry, I'd be happy to--" "Mansplain it?" i would've loved this line more if bloom was a bit more petty than smiley
NEVERMIND SHE IS A LITTLE BIT PETTY HDJWKKEJG (edit: nope she's tryna flirt)
oh they have british accents but bloom is american
"Oh how very american of you." HSJDJKFKG
MAGIC RING WITH A PRETTY DESIGN POG
HAJDJFKKEKWJE OKAY SO FAR I REALLY LIKE STELLA???
transformation magic has been lost as they evolved?? thats definitely not foreshadowing for the winx's abilities /s
Hhhhh bloom probably committed arson /hj
Yeah she definitely committed arson (albeit accidentally)
can we get more characters in here? like ik bloom's the protag but please i need more characters
oop all the girls are dorm mates
"Lady of the Flies, don't be sexist" IK THIS WAS A JOKE BUT WHAT THE
OHHHHHHH AISHA POG!! Yeah yeah i remember her, her name back in the cartoon seemed to alternate(?) from Aisha and Layla!! She had the bubble powers!!
BLOOM'S A RAVENCLAW/SLYTHERIN POG
ah yes the classic magic is linked to emotion trope i love that!!
Oh flora's name is terra now okay. Not quite a fan of the name change, but hey
OH HER COUSIN'S NAME IS FLORA JGJFKKGKH
she's so chatty bc of nerves and yeah,, i can relate
headphone girl's eyes turned pinkish purple what?? she used magic??
Terra is me when talking to people

Okay i got the confirmation that headphone girl's name is musa alrighty

The teacher man is kinda scary
Oh so specialties are like soldiers or smthn
burned ones?? oh??

the burned ones sounds so scary but man are the hollows from miss peregrines home for peculiar children are scarier
RIP riv this mf is gonna die
eeeeehh gross gore

beatrix doesn't give me good vibes
mmmmmm mom of the year award goes to bloom's mom. like ik ik youre worried but you didnt have to call your child a weird loner??? that shit hurts man (am i speaking from personal experience? mayhaps)
oh yay another sky and bloom interaction /s
i am begging this show to make one of the winx gay pleaseee
or bi
please just don't make all of them cishet
(who am i kidding,, they're all gonna end up in cishet relationships)
Are sky and stella exes??
bloom really found out that there aren't any people outside the barrier and dipped from the party even though it might be dangerous. mood
ooh pretty firefly thingies
yeah bloom deffo committed arson

Techna was the technology one, the nerdy icon. Musa was the music one WHO IS ASIAN NOT FRIGGIN WHITE NETFLIX. and Flora who is either brown or South American (Latin) if we go based on her facial features and skin
I digress THEY ARE NOT WHITE and I think they are going to cut techna from the cast and it’s just a hot mess
Oh my god of course musa was the music one come on Clíona get yourself together
Me and my sister used to be obsessed but I barely remember anything now wow what a throwback

So apparently Netflix is making a Winx series in live action
WTF.
Why is everyone so white
Why are the girls so boring
Wtf are they planning with the boyfriends
Techna isn’t a character apparently
Musa and flora are WHITE??? Since fucking when
The clothes 🔪🔪🔪🔪
Bloom is the most boring and vanilla of the girls (I said what I said)
no TRANSFORMATIONS!!?!?!
has Netflix any idea how expensive the CGI for that series would be
STELLA WHAT DID THEY DO TO YOU 🤬🤬
I’m 👌🏼 this close to committing mass murder. What was going on in that conference room that they ruined the series so badly
Woah woah woah
No techna????? Wasnt she the music one?? If so then NO!! She was my favourite!!!! Looking back she has to be one of my first crushes wow
