It's honestly amazing how Netflix original content can range from absolutely incredible to absolutely terrible
And then they cancel the incredible shows but let the terrible ones have another season. It happens way too often
@@mimiad397 it’s not always their fault but yeah
I’ve yet to see a incredible show on Netflix. What shows are those? They’re all mediocre at best.
@@mermy95 in anime, i liked devilman crybaby 😭
Try "I am not okay with this" or " the end of the fucking world" or " mind hunter" or the umbrella academy
dylan choosing the most eccentric backgrounds is honestly the best part of these videos
i love him! it probably look him like 30+ minutes to edit the first twenty seconds of the video lol
@@MadisonHalla Only 30 mins?? Hahah, nooo this editing probably took like 2 days of work.
yess
@@TheStepmonkey they said the first 20 seconds took 30 minutes not the entire video
If you aren’t watching nakey jakey already you should check him out! He has a rly similar editing style
What made Winx interesting was 1- the girls friendship 2- The fashion 3- The cool futuristic weapons the men had because they don't have powers 4- The plot about Bloom and her lost sister, Bloom trying to find out who she is and who her sister is. NONE of those things were in the show, NONE!!!
Exactly why I watched winx as a kid even boys watch it maybe because our teacher had a complete copy of 3 seasons
It was really fun in my opinion i assume the books are obviously better but it was a lot of fun too watch frankly I burst out laughing like 5 times cause the characters were so dumb.
@@danlockthegreat9023 I’m sorry.. Books?? It was a kids show haha, but yes, dumb.
I know RIGHT! Also even if it was its own thing I thought it was kind of interesting but like bloom was the most aggravating character
I grew up with a 4kids version. This is when it first came out. When they changed the voices, I hated it because I thought the 4kids dubbing of their voices were better and I still do.
As someone who grew up on Winx Club, this show made me SO MAD. They took away all the fun things of the show like the friendship and the FASHION and the boys and girls having different tasks and the way they all acatually have personality traits and did nothing with it. They literally took all the good things away and brought nothing.
I loved in the original show that they broke down stereotypes. Like Stella is a spoiled princess but she’s a good person (and one of the reasons I love her character). She will always be there for the people she loves and cares about.
And also I feel like most of them act like actual teenagers (not all the time but they live in a world of magic and this is from my memory).
But from what I’ve heard and clips I’ve seen from the Netflix show, they are just all stereotypes (which there’s nothing wrong with that because the original show they use these stereotypes to make interesting characters). I also don’t like how Hollywood thinks mature is a movie being visually dark, but the original show had some pretty dark moments but was still a colourful show.
@@CourtneyMaria2 And bloom and Stella would die for each other. Stella literally lied and tried to sneak Bloom into Alfea. They always stood up for each other. The group too would go through anything for each other. They never needed the boys to save them and the boys knew the girls could hold their own. Heck, stella even saved Brandom from the one underground princess who forcefully wanted to marry him. The friendship was the core and netflix just murdered the show then jerked off on its corpse
Same! I am also so angry what they did to the original characters. Like for example they made "stella" actually mean and only had floras cousin?? (i loved flora so much as a child). I dropped the show after one episode.
I was pretty excited for the show and then I heard about Netflix's adaption and then what actually happened, I could not believe it (I mean I could because it's Netflix but still).
I loved the original and the Netflix show. But I was so mad when they waited till the last episode of season 2 for the Winx to get their wings. And then Netflix just cancelled it. And on a huge cliffhanger too.
Another reason that netflix is failing is because it will renew shows like this, but will cancel good shows after only 1 season, like Julie and the Phantoms. They won't really promote the shows that are good, and will cancel them, but will constantly promote these awful shows and renew them like instantly, it is so frustrating
And I am not okay with this which left on a huge cliffhanger and only had seven episodes
Yes, like, I’m not okay with this and Society. I have no idea what they have done with Black Mirror, it was so popular and good but I guess they ran out of ideas.
Édit:
Good shows if they do come back sometimes take 2 years or more, why? Like I understand there was Covid but there was a few that came out way before and never got an additional season until 2-3 years later.
@@franfrankie7 I'm still pissed off about I am not okay with this getting cancelled
Julie and the Phantoms was clunky, ngl. But it had heart. Definitely more watchable that Cursed or the Winx show.
And the society
the most frustrating thing about the winx saga was the clothes. The cartoon had an amazing fashion design.
Idk if Im happier about the likes or the 69 comments...
They completely missed the opportunity to use Y2K fashion which was (and still is) trending at the time, there has never been a better time to actually go crazy with the outfits and do them justice to the cartoon. I'm just imagining the amazing outfits we could have seen, it could have been a trendsetter like Euphoria honestly. Though no good outfit could have saved that show.
@@aspannas exactly! Or a fairycore/grunge would be great.
@@natalieblahutova5050 Yeah that as well, they could have really played off the aesthetics that have been trendy.
@@aspannas instead they made them look like middle aged women 😭
@@noutelie It was some of the worst costuming I've ever seen lol, they didn't even dress them as their age. Looked like a CW show out of like 2009.
The coloring disparity in shadow and bone isn’t because of the change in directors, it’s because Nina is technically part of both worlds. It’s symbolizing the gradual merging of both groups.
you get the beeeeest of both worldssss 🎤
But that doesn't really work if Nina's not in the scene
@@yunawinxlol exactly. completely dismantling out here.
@@yunawinxyeah it does cuz ninas scene set that tone and storyline for the rest of the show
ok but that doesnt explain why he was in different lighting
The colors between the Six and Shadows is because Six are introduced in Ketterdam, a dark dingy thief land and the Shadows are in Ravka, which is meant to be a more hopeful place for the magic users. It switches up with Nina because she's from Ravka but is from the Crow's books
As a woman, I really appreciate well crafted action sequences. It sucks that that filmmakers do such shoddy work with action, humor, and character development if they’re target audience is women
As soon as he said that Not Winx Club was geared towards women, that's an insult 😡. It's like having action scenes in a 'woman's' show is too 'masculine' 🙃. I get that most women are not into action stuff but some of us do appreciate it 😎
@@SuperAmyRose01 That's not what Dylan meant. He was actually pointing out how the productions the one who has this view.
Same
They didn’t even do a good job with the fashion, tho. It’s not the fact that its target audience is women, is just that they did not give a sht. There’s no love in this project, like, at all. It’s been made for the money and money alone. It has no soul
This is why i kinda stopped watching his videos there soo many sexist comments, like dude its 2022 stop stereotyping women
The target audience being female doesn't mean action isn't needed and useless romance is justified. Nothing will make me drop a show faster than pointless relationships between any man and woman who breathe the same direction. I understand my view isn't how all women think, but the opposite is also true. There's not one standard all women would agree with. But I think what we all would agree on is that ''women love romance and hate spectacle'' is a tired stereotype that needs to go.
Agreeeeed. I mean there's a huge female following Xena: Warrior Princess from back in the day, me included
100%
No I think that's genuinely how most females think. Most of us would rather have action sequences instead of cringe "romance".
@@KristySki Why not both? Good romance can root a show's foundation. Take Berserk for example. An action anime, relying mostly on that, but the romance between Guts and Casca is what adds depth.
@@katie5998 exactly this!! I want BOTH!$
As a female, I am here for a good battle scene. Like, when I watch these fantasy shows I am here for a) world building b) learning how the combat works c) both of those things should come together so I can watch and epic show down.
Same.
As a "female"?
How ab as a woman?
@@someone3195 aren't those typically synonymous?
@@AuggsieBoggs Not rly. A short Google search will explain why.
@@someone3195 You're all about letting people use whatever words they want to use, right? Then let them use female. What's the problem? It's just a word, isn’t it? A word doesn't have to mean the thing it's defined to be. Why does it concern you so much what other people do. Individualism, right? Self expression? Freedom of speech? Not caring what other people think? That should apply to everyone, right? Where's that same treatment to OP? I can't believe you'd be hypocritical and have double standards, there's just no way. Why should you be entitled and control what someone refers to themself as? OPs valid and shouldn't let strangers bring them down for being who they are. If they want to use female I support them.
One of the main reasons for me is inconsistency and unpredictability. Netflix loves to make good shows and cancel them after a season or two. That’s a lot of time to invest in something that you know will likely be cancelled. The only things that don’t seem to get cancelled are shows that are about sex.
That's why I never watch anything till its finished. I kind of hate waiting and incomplete stories.
Tru Netflix is hypersexualized
but why do they cancel the good shows?
@@fruitybooty663 Because they don't get the interest immediately or don't get the interest Netflix feels is enough. Thing is, a lot of shows become more popular after they've been out for a while but Netflix wants things to be instant hits and that's just not realistic for the amount of shows they put out. People only have so much time. They can't watch every show at once.
I've found maybe 6 shows that like 3 finished but wasn't cancelled and two that are still on Netflix The Upshaws and Cobra Kai
The way Dylan was able to write the Winx storyline better than the actual writers by having Bloom go into an uncontrollable power trance and the girls needing to converge their abilities to defend themselves while Musa, the mind fairy, is the one who ultimately reaches her, and then that's what leads to them all becoming friends. I love this! 🌈
Me too
I remember season 2 of the original series had a dark bloom arc
@@oddiek Exactly, that's another reason why this story thread would work, because obviously Fate is doing an earlier exploration of Dark Bloom in a sense by showing how imperative it is for her to be in control of her emotions, otherwise bad things happen to the people she cares about, and clearly Rosalind is hoping to, quite literally, fuel the fire. 🔥
i thought you wrote Mufasa at first an i was like fuckin plot twist
It’s such an exiting premise shame it was wasted in this show. What I’d give to see someone with drive and talent redo the show and make it better…
Dylan’s transition into the audible sponsorship was better than the entire Winx series.
facts
Dylan's sponsor translations are so smooth lol
😂😂😂 legit
I love how he always laughs at his own sponsorship transitions. I just watched a video of his yesterday that he made two years ago and he laughed at his transitions then. The fact that the novelty hasn't worn off for him and he can still laugh at his transitions shows how much effort he puts into them.
Exactly
Being a bookworm and a huge fan of the Grisha verse...this is so satisfying.
Being fan of the books I couldn’t watch more than 3 episodes of the show because it was really bad compared to the books 😐
I wish they never mixed Grisha and Crows
@@adrianacernochova yeah I was so confused what are crows doing in the grisha plot story. I mean if I remember correctly there was a notable time difference between the stories. I will never understand why they did that. They could have two good series but nooo mix them a made one mediocre/bad series.
Should i read the books or watch the show first?
@@kadburys4802 read the six of crows duology if you're interested! Its widely regarded as the best part of the grishaverse
@@kadburys4802 personally i watched the 1st season then read six of crows duology! Really set up the atmosphere visually while i was reading it
One of the things that really annoys me about The Winx Saga is that they didn’t have to go for the Riverdale vibe to make the show darker. The source content has full on battles, an entire planet was killed, the girls were literally fighting for their lives every other episode. The only thing they needed to do was actually have a person die every now and then or actually show injuries in the show and add in some swear words to make it less kid friendly. The source material had some really dark plot lines to go with, it was right there and the creators of the The Winx Saga totally ignored it. Another thing was the fashion in the show. They were dressing like house wives on a reality show. This show could’ve been like Gossip Girl where trends were inspired by the show and there could’ve been some really cool moments. It was the perfect show to let creativity with fashion fly. A lot of people would’ve flocked to the show had the clothing been a lot better simply because there’s a lot of people that love fashion but all of the looks they actually used were either boring or ugly or both. There’s other things that bother me about the show like dropping some main characters, changing the ethnicities of some of the girls, and the lack of friendship which was super important in the show. It was an all around mess of a show.
Dylan “trying” to convince us that the “descendant” of the darkling is not the darkling made me laugh so hard 😂😂😂😂
him forgetting until very end was pretty good too
same
Kaz's 'over the shoulder' shot gets even better if you are to consider that, as he begins to remove his gloves, the camera moves up and we never, not once, in the entire show, even get close to seeing his bare hands again.
Which is kind of a big deal, considering that *the reason as to why Kaz wears gloves in the first place* is a big part of his character.
Omg you are right!
Yes I remember noticing that when I first saw the show and thinking that was a fantastic touch (no pun intended) in the directing
uhhh you should put a spoiler warning in your last line. some people might prefer to find out about that naturally through the books or tv series, otherwise it's less impactful
@@shineon6584 they never described WHY he has touch aversion
@@persephoneabbot9125 They do in the books. But Kaz and his gang are in a different series by the same author. “Shadow of the bone” is its own series separate from kaz, Casper, lnej, etc. they are just in the same universe/place so it works out that they would meet each other at some point
As someone who read the entirety of the grishaverse series before Shadow and Bone came out, I can confidently say it was an amazing adaptation. It was super cool to see the world so many people fell in love with come to life.
I was ready to fight about my love for Shadow and Bone when i saw the title, and then Dylan made everything right by saying it is indeed a great show ! You scared me there !
Hahahajajja SAMEEEE i was about to throw hands and I skipped all the way to where he talks abt shadow and bone all ready to fight anything he said but then he said he really liked it so I was happy and relieved😅
bestie, females want battle scenes. I want blood, I want tears, sweat and DEATH. As a female, I demand justice for the battle scenes directed at a female audience!
Yeah I love blood, guts, gore, death and a good fight or battle scene.
Exactlyy! Why wouldn’t females also want good battle scenes?
Yesss. That battle scene between Bloom and Icy in the original show? Absolutely amazing
exactly. at the very least the battle scenes should have emotional impact or character development or SOMETHING 💀
I want to see Bloom getting stuck in a block of ice
Netflix should let Dylan write a show, he’s actually competent (unlike most of the Netflix writers). I’d love to see what Dylan would make with a budget and resources
He’s gotta finish his novel first
@@jaydn2343 preach
Hed take 3 years for 3 episodes
He'd start and nvr finish it
I think he'd be a better Director - his commentary could have made those shows so much better
I just remembered that in the book, the Darkling’s (alleged) ancestor who created the Shadow Fold was called the Black Heretic. Calling him the Darkling was like people calling him “the devil’s grandkid.”
The coloring crossover/mixup in episode 3 of S&B actually makes sense with some context! Nina (known here fondly as Beatrice) is a character established in Six of Crows (warm tones), but she is native to the country the main character is in with the shadow fold (neutral tones) and is also Grisha (has powers, would be in the same part of the army as mc if she wasn’t currently……on a lil detour from her duty we’ll say lmao.)
In the show storyline she was also meant to be the (six) crows’ ~connection~ to get them into the little palace aka Darkle’s Castle aka land au neutral so her character intro literally represented one side venturing into the other! Not sure if needing all of that context to understand it makes it incredibly dense or incredibly clever but as someone who read the books it felt clever lol. The directors may change every 2 episodes, but they definitely put in work together to try and keep that cohesive visual story going!!
Some other things Fate did wrong:
- White washing Musa and Flora
- Renaming Flora to Terra
- No Techna
- Combining Brandon and Sky into 1 character
- Love triangle
- Wardrobe in general
I could keep going.
Edit: Omg! Thank y’all for over 1k likes!
I think flora is white
@@rebeccak7662 I thought so too but evidently she was Latina in the cartoon.
@@loraelizabeth7580 I never thought flora was white, simply because Stella, who tans and everything is still super white in the show. Which made me believe that Flora's darker skin was another ethnicity and not simply a tan.
@@TheNightxSky yeah I never really thought about it when I was little but when it was pointed out I was like “oh ok makes sense”
@@loraelizabeth7580 yeah, i didn't think she was latina tho, i honestly thought she was black whoops. I guess for cartoons it's really hard to show ethicities just through looks alone. Especially when the characters of the show aren't from earth so techinically she's not 'latina' since she's from another planet. it's weird how that works tbh.
Dylan needs to understand that we , as a female watchers, also want to watch some quality fighting scenes lmao 😀 Im still mad at producers for not making winx with wings and not making them beat the shit out of 'burned ones' at sky 🤢
True! I love a good quality fight scene.
exactly, it shouldn’t require a target male demographic for there to be good fight scenes !!
Right? Us women folk want great fight sequences too. It’s not a sex/gendered thing - it’s a people with good taste thing. Most people want good fight/battle sequences because it’s simply enjoying something created skilfully: like appreciating a beautifully cooked meal; or the architecture of a castle.
Fucking hell liking battle scenes are not a male only thing, nor should they be created only with a male audience in mind. Just because the movie or tv show you’re creating is mostly targeted at a female teen audience does not mean you should slack off in that department. It also makes the writing and the characterisations look weaker when fight scenes are not well choreographed.
I do wish more blokes would realize that us chicks like this stuff too. Because I mean… it’s having taste. It’s not like only women have taste buds and therefore like cake you know? It’s not like only men have eyes and therefore can appreciate landscaping.
Trueee we want some actionn

"and he's like...'slowpooooke' 🤣 oh dylan please never change
The cancellation of Anne with an E was the last straw for me. It was such an amazing show and Netflix took it away too soon.
To put things in prospective, AWAE got cancelled before Covid. That's 3 years ago, and people still cry about it on the internet. That just goes to show, Netflix hasn't had anything come out that's good enough to overcome the loss.
I agree too. I love it
For me it was the fact that Netflix remove Sherlock Holmes series like its my comfort series you all gonna remove it just like that f u i am cancelling my subscription lol
yup. such a crime.
I'm actually happy it was canceled. now I want them to revive in a couple of years when the actors are older
Hearing you discuss the problem with the specialists being trained with normal swords and weapons made me so mad at the show, because it reminded me that one of the main appeals of Winx was its technology. They had the coolest and most innovative weapon designs back then, adapting to each specialist fighting style, even their school (which was different from the Winx's one) and transportation was made to be futuristic. Winx was very technology-influenced and that was one of the things that set it apart from other fairy stories, yet they went ahead with their dark-academia and forest life thing that has been done a million times.
exactly like they even erased techna :((
@@helenwinter3320 She was always one of my favourites, it's such a shame. But I guess she was spared from being butchered like all the other characters
Butched like Flora and Stella 🙃
@@lllinai Not to mention Aisha (I hope I got her name right). They made her into Bloom's sidekick. From what I remember of the cartoon, she was awesome! Shame they turned her into a token black character
@@lllinai and musa too, from an Asian music fairy to a whitewashed mind ????? fairy
im so glad dylan enjoyed s&b
also im pretty sure when the director changed the colours in the shots changing to less warm colours was because the 'six' were now in the same country as the 'shadows'... thats why the shots were more cold
I get that they wanted to age up the show and make it more "edgy" but Winx had so many elements to it that they could have used instead they turned it into the next Riverdale.
The outfits are just bad. Euphoria did a much better and that show isn't even a fantasy series so how tf? All the characters just got assassinated terribly
Bloom went from the kind cinnamon roll hot head that was trying to figure out who she was to edgy mean overpowered generic main protagonist girl.
Also Bloom's color is blue which worked so well with her red hair but the writers couldn't even see that and threw red on her.
Stella went from fashion diva who was kindhearted yet also dealing with divorced parents and being Bloom's bsf to generic mean girl put in a love triangle.
Aisha doesn't even have a personality except being a babysitter for Bloom's shit.
The romance also pisses me off. Winx had interesting romance but now they just always gotta add romance drama in these kind of shows
Also where is Tecna????!
bro the fact that they were scared to basically stick to the original material in some sense is annoying. The cartoon had fashion, friendship, love, and battles a show targeted toward girls that ended up with a very successful saga. because girls love battles too just add in some so great clothes and were set. the show was colorful and sparkly even in the serious scene but somehow kept the mood. Netflix seems to know only how to direct semi-decent romcoms and super dark-themed shows like ughhh. it was so triggering being excited to watch this and then look at the final product... sorry for my venting lol
Right??? Like let us having something FUN! The original series was so girly and vibrant but in the best way possible, the fairies could fight, they fought to further their powers while still rocking ADORABLE outfits in a vibrant, sparkly and fun environment. Netflix seems to think teens nowadays only appreciate depressing, dark and gloomy stuff, and it's so infuriating
The cartoon is italian and I’m italian too. Watching that show broke my childhood heart lol
They wanted to make a edgy YA show so badly. They could’ve just adapted the original series but made it more mature. Or even more they could’ve adapted WITCH which has a darker story anyway
Maybe I have horrible taste in tv shows but I found it enjoyable to watch, if it’s a remake or reboot idc if it stays to the original source material it just needs to have some elements of the original with their own plot line and then have a good vision with good writing. Fate, I understand did mess up on a lot of things but as the target demographic which I honestly regret being ngl, I enjoyed it.
Now for season 2 the creator did say after seeing the first season he will be joining for the second season and fixing all the problems he saw I think, can’t remember clearly, and Flora is coming plus she’s Latina so you know going to watch it and see if it’s going to live up to the potential that I saw.
Exactly! And my thing is this: in the show, the girls were best friends through everything since day one. Stella wasn't a bitch, all of them had they're unique powers, and though they had their disagreements, they were still together. There was no insider drama or anything. This crap show didn't even bother to have all of the original characters or give them their original powers. Musa is supposed to have musical powers, not sense emotion. They botched this show, it was my childhood and I will forever hold hate in my heart for it every time I see it!
Sorry for my rant.
If you didn't read Six of Crows, you absolutely should. It's pretty impressive and I 100% recommend it 😁
Yeahh we don’t do recommendations here 💀
@@pavithrashaji they’re talking about a book to read in his spare time, not a video idea
I just know he would really really enjoy the six of crows duology
@Elinieba , he is probably busy writing his own book… for like 10 years now lol
the books are so good
2:22 Just hearing him explain each of the “Winx” club character powers makes me cry 😭. As a fan of the OG Winx Club series, I’m flabbergasted and deeply disappointed at what they’ve done.
OG Bloom has fire powers but she never knew she had them until she accidentally meets Stella. Stella is the blonde. She’s also a princess who’s powers are light. Musa’s powers are music. Flora is the nature fairy. Techno is the technology fairy. Girls can have powers but the guys can’t. When Dylan was wondering why the guys are training with swords, it’s because boys don’t have magic. AND, Alfea (Winx school) and Redfountain (Specialists’/boys’ school) are different. They do not go to the same school 😭😭😭😭
you got the girlies on twitter freaking out
Fate is just not Winx. They did what every live action movie usually does and just yeeted the plot and characters in to the void. Just the fact that they did not introduce the same dynamics and villains and decided to make it a shadow hunter the series rip off is kind of embarrassing.
Couldn't Agree More
I guess I'm one of those people who didn't mind all the changes they made at all. I'm actually excited for season 2 lol
And what about the wingsss... God damn.. How did they get those wront
I love winx, but fate was not it. I disliked it. I couldn't even finish it.
@@19Rena96
Throughout the episodes I somehow forgot that it is supposed to be WINX because it was so not winx-like.
It was okay-ish and I wanna watch the second season. But they should have just made a different series and not a Winx series that basically has nothing to do with Winx. Cause that just sucks.
Amidst the trash Netflix has been producing lately, Heartstopper was really a surprise! I've never liked the whole teen coming of age genre but oh boy this show was absolutely adorable! The impeccable cast, soundtrack, cinematography, diversity, authenticity to the book, it left me feeling warm and hopeful!! The break that we all deserved!
There is a comic also! It's extremely cute as well
It's just wholesome and feels like a warm hug. I love how every character is treated with love and respect.
yes I LOVE heartstopper, but if they don't renew it, i'm going to be so mad but also sadly not that surprised since netflix has a tendency to cancel actual quality shows, even if they are popular
I binged the whole season yesterday and for the first time EVER skipped back to watch all the cute and funny scenes again. Everything about it was honest and really well made 😍
They did the show really well and barely strayed from the graphic novel. It was so adorable 😭
Shadow and Bone is really good I first watched it for Ben Barnes but all the cast are amazing as well especially Kaz Brekker I think he's my favourite honestly I can't wait for season 2
the way they combined the two storylines between shadows & bones and crew from the six of crows is ... chef's kiss.
I hope Dylan reads Six of Crows and realizes how much more violent and dark the show could've been. But hopefully more violence in the next season!
I personally think SOC is darker and grittier than Peaky Blinders, which is the closest show I can even think of that matches the vibe of SOC. Kaz is very similar to Thomas Shelby, even looks like a younger version of him, in my head and in the show. There were points while reading the duology that I had to stop and double check the age rating for SOC, not because that is something that applies to me, but simply because I could not believe that a book this gruesome and dark wasn't rated 18+. Like the Hunger Games, if they included everything from the books into the show, it would probably have to be aired on HBO. The best yet shortest book series I have ever read.
i kinda wish in season 2 they would add that scene where kaz plucks out a man’s eyeball
@@redvenice7253 I wish, but that would definitely feel way out of place with the current vibe of the show. A shift would definitely have to occur. I feel bad for Freddy, having to hold back on playing the character he himself knows and adores. Netflix should just let him be Brekker by Brekker. Brick by Brick.
I just know Dylan would crack up at the part with Kaz and the little girl in the beginning of Crooked Kingdom!
@@alyson2298 Kaz and the little girl? You mean Inej?
I'll forever be mad at the makers of winx saga for ruining it like they did. the cartoon was flashy and extravagant and mature. they clearly had the chance to have a bright color palette with sparkly clothes n shit and like u said the friendship aspect taking directly from the source material. instead they "riverdaled" it, had the most fashionable character (stella) dress like a 40yo mom and not only have no friendships but also add in that unnecessary love triangle that nO ONE ASKED FOR!!! stella and bloom were best friends in the og cartoon. they absolutely RUINED this show right from the start. and this is apart from the bad writing, directing and acting.
(sorry for my bad eng im not a native speaker)
Your English is good and I totally 100% agree with you. This is my third comment about this because I absolutely hate what they did. True and pure anger enters my heart every single time I see the show somewhere. My brother kept saying it was good and not to compare it to the original show. That was bull
@@lonnisplace1459 same,, i remember the first time i saw a pic of all the winx standing in front of the gate of the school or whtvr when it was released and thought no..this has to be a joke...its probably some parody video with bad taste but to everyones horror and absolute displeasure it was the real thing... like,, i dont anyone even ASKED for a wings live action revoot and they make it but like THIS,,, a complete horrible 180 from the OG which was ICONIC!!! like how do you fuck up that bad.... its like they took everything important and precious from the cartoon and said lets do the EXACT OPPOSITE. as a "winx was my childhood" fanatic i dont claim this show and can only hope they arnt effing up the live action powerpuff girls reboot as we speak
They spent their budget on the giant castle structure of a school 😅
@@lilbrownbear What?! They're making a live action Powerpuff Girls? Jeez, no one makes original content anymore, it's all just "hey, let's live action this and make a lot of money, no need for creativity here!" Wtf? I swear, they're pulling the whole Avatar The Last Airbender thing. The show was great, practically one of the best shows out there, and the movie completely sucked. Same for Winx Club, and now they're victimizing more shows! No one does creative stuff anymore, it's sad. I can't wait until I come up with my own shows and movies and books. It'll be fresh air, a break from all of this bullshit. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do that stuff rn, but it's what I'm about to go to school for and I'm going to make sure it's actually good and not just some bullshit money grabber like the rest of these wannabees. Sorry for my rant, but creativity is value and it means shit and is disrespectful when you take someone else's original work and destroy it for views.
@@lonnisplace1459 yup u heard it right a live action powerpuff girls starring dove cameron as bubbles... its gonna be about the girls all grown up having to deal with the trauma of being superheroes or whtvr as kids...
i totally agree its all about reboots and remakes and sequals and prequals now ,,, i mean i get it if u got a franchise on ur hands you'll want to grow it but CMON MAN at least do it right. its like they just dumpster dive , pick out whtvr trash that looks eatable still and put it on a fancy plate.
p.s. all the best for your future
As a person who loved the original Winx club I was so disappointed to see how white washed the live action show was. I have only seen clips of the show due to my hesitation to watch the show I have found nothing compelling me to do so as most of the writing and directing seems to fall flat in all the scenes I have seen. Fate has nothing the original has from some of the main characters being absent from the show to even the fashion. Honestly they should've just made it a completely different show
Same here grew up w the 4kids version of it but the netflix one…. Just i couldnt
do u even know what white washed means mate
@@sariica yes, and in this instance it means when in the original source material certain characters were poc but when the new show was made they cast white actors for those roles that were supposed to be poc. this in turn takes away jobs from minority actors. (i am not blaming the actors, but the casting directors and those in charge of making those decisions).
i come back to this video often to see dylan doing the darling bit, it kills me without fail
Hear me out, Winx could definitely been made into a more mature and dark show while also staying true to the source material, why the burned ones? The Trix could be genuinely a menacing foe in a darker setting with them being descendants of the witches who ruined Blooms home world. There was so much potential there to go balls to the walls with the darker aspects, Bloom struggling with her identity and the loneliness of being the last alive and the survivor’s guilt of her sister giving her own life to save Bloom, also… Who the fuck is Terra?! Where my girl Flora?!
Had a second thought, these people also wants us to believe they’ll give avatar justice…. No way in hell when you can’t even get magical girls right
Overall I liked the show, clearly not a lot because I didn’t argue with anything Dylan said about it but there was SO MUCH POTENTIAL THEY THREW AWAY. And for some reason it cheesed me that she wasn’t the only fire fairy, I mean the whole thing is her having the dragon flame- In traditional Winx style you couldn’t cast fire spells if you didn’t have it so whatever they’re planning is definitely changing everything
The thing is, the original show was DARK. We LITERALLY have the trix turn people into ash and attack the schools with an army of decaying flesh and rot like? Why didn’t y’all just go with that? Or focus more on the inter realms war with the ancient ones? Hell, Fate couldve been set in the past with Daphne and tell her story that ends with her death instead we got a basic try hard grim dark series that had zero budget. Also, Terra is Flora and no matter HOW MUCH fans try to deny it Terra is Flora.
This season I’m gonna need Musa to reveal she stole someone else’s identity and she’s actually Darcy, Beatrix takes on the name Stormy, Terra transfers and Flora takes her place and Sam and Dane get demoted to recurring characters. I want my ACTUAL Winx characters.
@@mkwhite5054 100% agree! My friend worded what she thought of the show really well “I can like the show if I can pretend it’s not a retelling of winx and it’s a show on its own” which I think fits perfectly
@@rainedroses4291 yep exactly, I enjoyed the show until I’m reminded of just WHAT it is supposed to be and then I’m immediately annoyed like…? Y’all could’ve just made your own show? Or explored the next generation of the winx club with Roxy and the other newbies? Or hell, made a live action WoW but they chose NONE of the obvious options.
I'm sure they just used a script/concept for a original show and then edited the names so that they could market it as a Winx Club adaptation. There's just no way anyone familiar with the source material would've written this show.
I was stupidly relieved when you said you liked Shadow and Bone! Also the choice to call them "The Six" rather than the Crows is wild 🤣
Lol yeah I didn't think about that
I was thinking that the entire time lmao
“Swapping anklets is one of the most intimate things you can do with a person” truer words have never been spoken
Six of crows is my favourite book ever and I can’t express how excited I get everytime I see the crows onscreen.
When will Netflix realise we don’t want stupid shows The Hype House and stop cancelling great shows like The Society and Anne with an E
+ Grand army and Mindhunter
Netflix didn't cancel Anne with an E. The writers? or smth like that did.
@@ME.S.E it was the original network that canceled the show, I believe is a Canadian network.
Alas, they were renewed (The Society) but...covid happened
Literally I need season 2 of The Society so much, I'm so mad they cancelled it
Fun fact Dylan the entire plot point you wanted to happen in Fate, about Bloom going beserk and the girls having to fight her, happened in season 2 of the original show. And yes it was awesome
Dark Bloom had me questioning my sexuality
@@Alina-fo9kr Relatable, she looked way too good
@@Alina-fo9kr I didn't have to question anything, I simply knew. Dark Bloom was and still is 🌟a snack🌟
That's why I don't get why they had to make the show 'darker and edgy' by removing colours when the original WAS ALREADY DARK FOR A KIDS SHOW
@@lightandleaves3858 100% this, why does it have to look so... boring??? It can be colorful and still be dark in it's themes
When there are multiple directors for one show or set of movies it’s so important that they discuss and plan together so that each person can put in their own creative shooting/blocking and themes without it feeling detached or mismatched from the others- even something as simple as keeping the type of shots and lighting the same for a character until a pivotal moment
"I don't want to see this. They're boring. I want to see humans on fire." Dylan is the reason the hunger games started.
I literally screamed when Dylan said he liked Shadow and Bone! It's a brilliantly made show with an exceptional soundtrack and an amazing cast. It also surprisingly stuck to books. I know we don't talk about recommendations here but I think you should read the six of crows duology! I have a feeling you won't be disappointed
It deviated from the books in all the right places. Like, the books never once give a full description of Alina (only that she has brown hair and a pallor complextion because she's sick from not using her powers), i think Bardugo left her intentionally as a blank slate so readers could imagine themselves as Alina.
The netflix writers and casting making her Shu Han and having her struggle with discrimination added an extra layer to the character that was clearly lacking in the books
I've never read the book but I watched the series and it was amazing. Soo goodd. I wasn't into fantasy genre but this series was too good to drop. The characters were all so interesting and I love the "game of throny' change of povs to different characters. Is the book worth it to read?
@@tenshoneyskin4500 yes!! every book in the GrishaVerse is so worth reading, its an amazing world.
right? the show is so good and i’m glad the crows got a big role in it, leigh is a genius in changing her time line.
VOUCH
Also:
The original Winx Club show that appealed to pre teen and teen shows had super awesome action and fight scenes!
Like literally! They were so fun!
You had bondage by audio sensitive plants, diversion by using everyday objects to make music, they had voodoo dolls to stage a mock fight with Bloom, they had an inhumane army of death demons that didn't die no matter what. You had opponents stealing blooms powers.
They had a fight were they defeated the villain by chanting a song!
They had great individual fight choreography!
Fate is disappointing no matter the gender.
I know that by all technicalities, these are all true and accurate, but these descriptions are sending me.
It's so sad how the show I watched when I was 7 was much better than the older adapted show
Let's be real here they were adapting a cartoon to a live action i feel like if they made it too much like the original it would have be to predictable, I like this version. I loved the cartoon as a kid, however I'm much older now and something like this with a more dark tone speaks to me. And yes maybe they could have done more with the costumes as they were soo good in the animation but it would have been so cringe if they did the whole chant and transform thing. Back then yeah, I don't think so now
Also also it's kind of funny looking at all the bitter people in the comments who's show got cancelled lol. It's not that big a deal shows get cancelled all the time for numerous reasons, time to move on
Not to mention they took out Techna, changed Musa, and swapped out Flora - making any Winx connection practically unrecognizable. Techna’s powers actually wouldn’t have been too hard to adapt to a live action setting - just have it be similar to telepathy but using technology or the internet as a channel (akin to the Matrix, Ghost in the Shell, or Fringe to name a few examples). Kingdom Hearts 2 (a video game) was able to make that magic-tech combination pretty seamless with a data disc for Tron created by Cid and Merlin!
It’s a shame because apparently a live action Winx adaptation has been the original creator’s dream for a long time.
16:45 No reason to call me out, sir. I was merely checking to see how my phone was charging
Which I was actually doing, so you did catch me off-guard 😅
The editing is top tier. I love these kinds of videos!
I was about to say that I normally respect others people's opinions on movies and shows, you like what you like, right? But when Dylan put shadow and bone in the vicinity of fate and cursed, I was like: I don't respect that!!! AND THEN HE SAID HE LIKED SHADOW AND BONE AND I SCREAMED! So I'm going to respect Dylans opinion.
SAME
Ahaha same here I was so scared when I saw the thumbnail
seriously I was scared that he thought it was bad like the books are amazing and this is the first time I’ve seen a book turned to a movie or show becoming pretty accurate to the book
same..... But I also thought: "Hmm, if he didnt like it, there must be something strong...... Dylan cant not like this... curious to know what he'd find"
same i was gonna riot
17:59 Thank you so much for pointing this out. People don't talk enough about when you can see actors acting. You can see them having to think about being in character, how to mold their facial expressions when they're on camera, exactly how to move and what their cues are. I've been seeing it more and more in the MCU and it drives me nuts.
coloring was a BIG identifier for plots in GOT, amazing how they made the east a different world than westeros, and the iron islands, and north of the wall, etc. i would love to see you do a video on GOT
Everything that The Winx Club was best for (fight sequences, fashion, friendships, world building, characters), the Netflix series said ‘no’ TO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM.
Yeah winx club had great diversity to I already knew Netflix was gonna take that away 💀
Another reason Netflix is failing: LITTLE TO NO MARKETING!!!!! It took way too long for me to hear about Shadow and Bone - long enough that i don't think my views counted towards Netflix's 28 day range they use to see how successful a show is. Shadow and Bone really needs to be hyped up more - it is so underrated
Yeah same, didn't know about the series until I accidentally stumbled upon it while googling the books...
The Netflix algorithm is super weird anyways, if you look for recently added stuff it oftenly doesn't show you everything new, many good movies or series you can't find unless you know what you are looking for beforehand.
Honestly I think they’re just very strategic. If you look at Bridgerton and Ebola Holmes they marketed the shit out of them so they know when to do it. Maybe they just don’t want to tire their audience. Also for shadow and bone specific the reader demographic was YA and very tapped in so I think they knew they could rely on them. Same with heartstopper. Young and niche/fan audiences will almost do the marketing for them
@Maeve im sorry but EBOLA HOLMES got me-
@@moethemoon Same! rofl Ebola Holmes.
@@maeve6363 Idk since the characters were all aged up for the TV show it can cater to the fantasy crowd as well as the YA.
I think I eventually saw it after watching the Magicians (also aged up characters from highschooler going to college to be graduates instead).
I still think more marketing is necessary
As for winx, I agree.. i want more action!! Season 1 was a MAJOR let down as an avid winx watcher as a kid. One of my fave shows :.) s2 was ehhhh I was only happy they added flora lmao
Watching this again in November and noticing how Dylan said "beer and a movie is something I'll be doing more in 2022" and then does it only once more (so far) lol. Love it, love the consistency.
I can’t believe that audible, the whole company collectively, is Dylan’s father
lmao the way he turned out, i can
now imagine his father being Jeff Bezos
I think the hues of the six’ world changed because they weren’t in Ketterdam anymore but in Ravka … so the warm hue wasn’t because of them but the place
YES
Excactly!!
yeah ... dylan isnt the best at picking up clues, even ones he noticed .....
The weirdest thing is that the only thing I remember about Cursed, is that it had a really weird and half baked collab with the MMO Black Desert.
Damn he don’t even know he got the girlies acting up on twitter 😂
lmaoo please just saw that tweet 😭
I should NOT have pulled this up on my work computer :D
@@S0LAVELLANHELL Is there a link to this. Couldn't find it on his twitter and not sure where to look. :P
Looool I saw that tweet pls
Leigh Bardugo, the autor is involved in the making of S&B series, I think that's a big reason why this is a good adaptation. They really get the vibe of the books, this eastern european, steampunk-ish thing. The filming locations really fit (I recognized almost all hungarian locations :D).
Also I read Cursed, I hated it, it was messy and the plot was all over the place for me.
no mourners :D
@@arushiverma1672 No funerals :)
S&B f-ed up cultural representation though. Completely shoe-horned in and blunter than a brick to the face, with no lasting repercussions.
12:55
As a female I'd like to confirm that in a fantasy show, there's nothing more entertaining than just a well-coordinated gory battle sequence. Give me some action and blood and vengeance YES.
As a female I agree with this message.
As also a female, yeah obviously (also the word female makes me cringe so much, bc I associate it with incels or “nice guys”😬 Not saying that everyone who says it is one but still😆)
@@lucamara6424 yess, men use it to dehumanise us, because they don’t view us as equal 🙃
I mean given how popular the poppy war is and so many other fantasy books like it, you’ve really got to question the logic of assuming women don’t care about that stuff
Right?! Honestly there are few series/movies I can think of where the level of action put off/drove away female audiences, and it is mainly franchises with little to no storyline (like A team, the merchenaries and F&F). If anything shows with a female target are like-so because of a lack of interest from the male counterpart rather than a preference from women of certain genres
Beer and a movie analysis thought videos are my favorite! Keep em coming!
it was very spooky @17:50 when I saw my neighborhood. loved the video!
shadow and bone is criminally underrated, it has all the chops to be the next big thing and yet somehow ... it didn't?? JUSTICE FOR SHADOW AND BONE !!!
YES
justice for thr crooows!!! (and milo ofc)
What are you basing that on? The second season isn’t out yet, but it was renewed pretty quickly comparably.
@@checksanity Im not talking about the second season? as it stands shadow and bone is not talked about much at all apart from the core fandom, it never really achieved mainstream popularity nor did attract discussion on social media. im hoping it'll gain recognition as season 2 comes though :D
@@samgrey2407 Most likely because the fandom didn't talk about it enough, and netflix didn't advertise the show. The only way someone would have known about it is through hersay or it being shown on the newsfeed on netflix and that in itself is not a garauntee that it gets watched. If the show's fandom started to make a bunch of memes and start talking about it than it probably would recieve more interest.
It was trending at number 1 for quite a while tho.
Dylan calling the crows "the six" when crows is right there is so on-brand for him lmao
I was looking for this comment lmao xd
Love the editing in your beer and a movie videos
i always love the way dylan fits in his sponsors even if there at odd times in the video. shout out to dylan
To add to the whole "Six" vs "Shadow" film aesthetics, the directors also made a decision that the camera movement in the Six side more dynamic. The Six side definitely has a lot more pans and stuff.
they also have more bis hehe
they're called the 'crows', the six of 'crows'. The 'six' threw me off so much😭
@@m._6566 yeah I'm aware, just following how Dylan said it in the video! Honestly, I wouldn't put it past him to use six just to mess with us 😂
@@Alina-fo9kr underrated comment
Shadow and Bone is genuinely the best fantasy show I have ever watched, I think it is definitely the best adaptation on Netflix. Personally, (at least from season 1) it might even be better than the books (and I'm talking about the Shadow & Bone trilogy here, not the Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom- those 2 are masterpieces). Just the cinematography, the screenplay, the brilliant casting choices
I totally agree. The show felt so much more lively then the Shadow and Bone books
totally, nothing can beat six of Crows, but yes.. the show is better than shadow and bone books no doubt.
yes the casting choices are sooo good because in the books and in the movie alina has literally no chemistry with her best friend lok
exactly my thoughts!! I hated SAB trilogy i think the show was so much better
I was looking for this comment.. I genuinely loved the show.
When I first watched this show I absolutely fell in love with the show and ESPECIALLY the Crows and immediately went and read the duology. I loved that duology omg
Having a really short combat sequence wouldn't automatically make something bad. Technically it is more realistic to have a fight scene nuch shorter. But for a good example of this, Obi-Wan wan vs maul in rebels is an incredibly short fight but packs in an insane amount of story in such a short time. Because it pulls from previous lore it creates on of the best story beats in star wars
The fact that Dylan always talks about YA books but hasn't read the best ones (the Six of Crows duology) is the most shocking thing ever
From what I've taken from most ya/general book adaptions is the only way it's actually going to be good is if you get the creator of the original material involved. Leigh Bardugo (shadow and bone) and Alice oseman (heartstopper) both had hands on the writing of both of the adaptions of their shows, which is why i think they're just so above and beyond other adaptions out there at the moment
Agreed. Heartstopper felt so true to the original material. I felt the same way watching the show as I did reading the webcomic
Unfortunately, if I remember properly, the original creator of Winx did work on Fate so.... I really don't know what happened there.
Ah mannn does that mean the last air bender is gonna suck then…I shouldn’t have high hopes but here I am having high hopes
I think what makes this true is that you have someone that is really passionate about the project driving it forward. The content is the writer's baby, so they won't settle for less. Versus some director coming into a project that's already established, not to mention TV execs make the decisions and don't know anything about good TV. They have a product they know people will consume, why not do it on a lower budget? Who cares who directs it if the content is what draws people in? We'll make money regardless.
no mourners!!
The perfect comedic timing during your ad read, just before you said "This video is sponsored by audible" just absolutely killed me. I had to pause the video I was laughing so hard.
ALSO SOC SHOULD GET THEIR OWN SERIES I CANT THEY ARE LITERALLY THE PERFECT CHARACTERS AHHHHHHHH
i felt so hurt when you said you were going to talk about shitty netflix shows and shadow and bone appeared bc six of crows is one of my all time favorite books (you should TOTALLY read it, what happens in the show is not even on the books since it’s supposed to be a prequel, anyway the books are so amazing)
Sorry I’m not caught up in the book world…do you have to read shadow and bone with it or is it it’s own thing?
@@Nuuhnn_ya you don't really have to read shadow and bone since it's a completely different storyline just set in the same universe, but it's really confusing to read alone because the world building was already done in shadow and bone, and you don't really enjoy it as much as you could've if you've read them, so I definitely recommend reading those first:) Also, it spoils the end of ruin and rising (the third book in the shadow and bone trilogy).
@@Nuuhnn_ya plus there's one character in the 2nd book that honestly makes the shadow and bone series so worth reading. I can't wait to see them adapted
@@Nuuhnn_ya I started with Six of Crows and had no problems
If ur really worried you can try the Shadow and Bone books first but a lot of people don't like them as much.
I read SoC first and the first chapter was a lil confusing I was like WHAT IS HAPPENING but then the CROWS came and OMGGGG I AM OBESSED WITH THAT SERIES
I wanted to read Shadow and Bone but after Reading SoC it's kind of difficult because my expectations are soo high and I know I am gonna be disappointed
I think the reason “Beatrice” (her name is actually Nina) starts out with the shadow side colors but then is involved with the crows is because she lives in the in between. She’s a spy from the shadow-side but *spoiler* will become a “six”
As someone who has only watched the show and has no knowledge of the books, nothing you said there made a shred of sense 🤣
@@recoveringintrovert717 lol, don’t worry it’ll make sense when we get to the Six of Crows part of the storyline/Show. It’s just a little hint shown before that. Fun fact, the producer signed up to adapt the Six Of Crows story (cause he was a huge fan of that plot, but he got Shadow and Bone’s trilogy) so he made it so that the Six of Crows characters are also in the Shadow and Bone as a prequel (since they are both set in the Grisha verse and the events of Six of Crows in the books come after Shadow and Bone)
Dude, you filling those characters in with Pokemon characters had me dying 🤣
its a side note but the part where he talked about cliffhangers made me feel nostalgic about them. as much as i dread cliffhangers at the end of the show i kinda like the feeling of waiting a full week being all excited about he next episdoe and be blown away
Genuinely curious as to whether Dylan is going to be team Mal or team Darkling.
You know he's gonna go for the villain. He loves destruction hehe
@@pweetyliciouse Plus he senses the undeniable Darklina chemistry. 🥰
im pretty sure dylan would go for the villain love interest dynamic
there is no wrong answer
@@DJtheBlack-RibbonedRose team mal for me malina all the way, especially since mal has been upgraded in the series
Shadow and bone is the EPITOME of a good live adaptation. Combining shadow and bone with Six of crows was the right call. I watched it 4 times
mhmmmmmmm i see now
i seen u off twitter and now i know why the girls actin up
A “beer & a movie” without Dylan getting drunk by just smelling alcohol?! That’s new
Evolution
I hate what they did to winx. It would've been an okay show on its own but no, they had to make an adaptation and ruin Stella.
And let me not get started on the fashion.....just no.
they ruined my entire childhood
@Klaudia : AND WE DON'T HAVE NEITHER FUCKING FLORA OR TECNA !! , and of course the whitewashing !!!
After the trailer, i refused to watch the show and just rewatched my childhood! I’m very satisfied with my decision.
yeah
My grandma dresses better than them.
I have so much respect for CZcamsrs who make me appreciate/enjoy their ad reads.
The fight scenes in Mr. Sunshine on Netflix too are very good. The show is overall very empowering and badass for female and male audiences alike. It’s revolutionary. Also Spielberg’s West Side Story would have been so much more famous had it been released everywhere before the pandemic. Such a shame because it’s a brilliant mix of so many genres.
dylan calling the crows "the six" has got to be the most dylan thing he's ever done
ikr he was so close yet so far... the word Crow was right there 😂
WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT THIS
I think the color of the shots you're talking about is not to differentiate the story line but to differentiate where the characters are. All the warmer shots you are talking about are in the ketterdam (Kerch) while the more neutral ones are in ravka. So the scene with Beatrice (Nina) is neutrally colored because the crows is already in ravka. (This is a maybe. I'm not the showrunner. They may actually fucked that up idk)
no youre right, as soon as they get to ravka. the coloring is the same, he must have missed the little card that pops up and says the crows arrived in ravka
Isn't that what he said?
@@samukelelubisi he thinks its because its a different director, not because the six are in ravka

35 minutes and 50 seconds just to be told nothing matters and I should get audible, I love this man.
I don't know whats with this obsession of making YA shows so dark. I would love some light fantasy stuff too. I wish they made the Winx remake as a light adventure with a focus on friendship (as close to the original). I loved that show as a kid and the remake was such a disappointment😞
@Nonaya Bidness uglify. That’s the perfect word to describe what they did
I feel the same way watching this show made me mad, like change the name of it’s not going to be anything like the serious :,)
I wonder how the original Winx characters would react to Tamir Rice or Donald Trump
I think part of the issue with Winx was the outfits from the cartoon. The issue is that fans love the outfits and wanted them
@@carlycrays2831 yeeessss. and listen, i don't _hate_ the idea that they don't get their full fairy, shiny, bedazzled, different-costume transformations. but like even their regular outfits were bland af. like ohhh give the fire-element character RED outfits, the earth-element character GREEN outfits (and not even in a thematic, motif kind of way. they literally just gave Bloom pretty much full-red outfits??? her identity is just red. this isn't Cheryl Blossom deliberately carving a visual of herself being a red bombshell in a campy teen show and the writers heavily leaning onto to her Rich Queen Bee trope smh.) i feel like Miranda Presley, looking at the outfits and deadpanning "Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking."
anyway i digressed. what i mean is fine, take out the bedazzled fairy costumes, but maybe. just maybe. still keep to their original outfit motifs and, idk, be _interesting???_
ngl the fact that they kept out the fairy costumes but still had to give Bloom her "transformation" sequence that amounted nothing more to swirling flames and flame wings is. so. funny in hindsight. all that build-up and for nothing?? it could've actually been kinda epic if the flame wings erupted from her back from a sudden, instinctive power awakening and power boost, and idk, MORE FLAMES. fucking ring of fire, i don't mind. the visuals could've still been epic without the original aesthetic but they didn't even tryyyyy.
hearing Dylan talk about shadow and bone is something I didn't know I needed
IKR
That show is so underrated. It needs more promos and marketing
