Oof. I feel like a live action Winx movie is going to face even bigger backlash, especially thanks to their terrible rep when it comes to adapting cartoons. Avatar: The Last Airbender, Dragon Ball, even the Fairly Odd Parents live action specials. They just have the actors be doofier because "you're playing cartoon characters! Act cartoony and unnatural!!" (or stiff and boring as heck with A:TLA). I'm not trying to rag on the movie before it's even out yet, it's just that live action adaptations of cartoons tend to not be that great.

Honestly, I think most of the fandom came to hate 3D thanks to Nickbow overusing it. They should've just stuck to 3D being movie-exclusive. But thanks to them making the jarring switches between 2D and 3D for a majority of episodes for two seasons, I can understand why most of the fandom has gotten tired of it. I wouldn't call it cheap though, the 3D animation for Secret of the Lost Kingdom and Magical Adventure were gorgeous.
