There's also apperantly a Winx Club musical popular in Italy and the Netherlands.

Winx Club The Movie!!
 

Coming to a THEATRE near you this December!! It's CGI!! OMG! I saw the trailer and it totally rox!!

See the trailer here:

INB4 Michi.

A Winx Club movie? I might go see it, even though I'm not really a Winx Club fan.

Superman: Doomsday goes direct to DVD, and THIS gets a theatrical release.

Typical

Yeah, but with $9.50 movie tickets and $3.00 small sodas or pop corn, buying Superman: Doomsday is cheeper than seeing a theatrical movie.

Who pays when they go to the movies? :shifty:

I actually liked the old Trailer better before they removed it. It had a lot more scenes and action shown. This has been known for about a year to Winx Club fans, because The creator stated in an interview that he was going to end the series and finish the story with the movie.

I'd still prefer it to be a traditional animated movie. The character designs are the main reason I like the show, and they look a lot better hand drawn compared to CGI. (Even though I like the way the movie looks.)

well, I think it Superman Doomsday was always intended to be released straight to DVD. I don't know about the UK but that's become a big thing here in the states over the last couple of years.

That and I don't think there's definite plans to release it in theaters here in the states. I know it is in Europe for sure though. My friend got the flier they were using to promote the movie at a film festival and it led us to believe there's currently no plans for a US theatrical release.

Its probably because of money. Vector based animation doesn't fly in theaters like it does on TV, and traditional animation is shunned by studios because of cost. That leaves CGI which is why is has unfortunately taken over the medium.

Yeah I figured as much. I do love that they look so close to their 2D Counterparts though. I think I just need to get more used to it.

Is...uhhhh... 4Kids so strapped for money they have to do this? Seriously! They couldn't even release KND the movie on DVD, let alone theaters, and some semi-obscure, not quite that popular Italian cartoon gets a big fancy release. They couldn't even dub the One Piece films when they had the licence..... and they release this? DBZ films get a small 2 theaters nationwide relase and.... forget it... forget it. But, seriously... WHY? I see the merchandise marked down to a penny, and it still gathers dust.

No Offense to the couple Winx fans, that is...

But then again, they're flooding the medium with really lousy CGI shorts. pixar sees artistic vision, everyone else sees dollar signs. I ashamedly liked Barnyard, but that was more suitable for a TV/DVD release. However, Simpsons did quite well at the BO (until Superbad came out, and steamrolled them) and that's 2D. But then again, it has a big big household name attatched to it.

I could also go into how Japan releases every cartoon possible as a theatrical movie (look how bloody many DBZ has, and One Piece is on its 9th film). Even though, half of them are 30, 40 minutes and in a triple bill with 2 other cartoons. And a lot of the time they theatrically release clip shows. No joke.

But still.... WHY? If they're going for semi-obscure European animated features, why didn't they even aknowledge Asterix and the Vikings? not even on DVD.

as someone once said to me.... Tumbleweeds.

Reruns, and one "new" dubbed anime they're going to try to make a fad here, which won't stick. Yeah...... 4Kids.... uh.... don't get me wrong! I love TMNT... and dubs asides I'm glad I saw One Piece and Ultimate Muscle and Kirby and stuff.... but if you wanna see why you keep losing money left and right.... yeah.... just check it out.

4Kids has absolutly NOTHING to do with this film. The film was done by Rainbow S.P.A, the Italian company that created Winx Club and it's distributed by Tristar.

Yawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn.....

I may go to see this for the fun of it, but that show really bores me.

And I thought the worst had come out...Bratz flopped really fast, I wonder if this one will too. ugh.
4 kids is screwed. They put crap on tv and turned TMNT into crap...what's next? Teenage Bratz Kirby Winx?
Whoever is putting this thing out, doesn't realise it's not that popular ...kids on the bus talk more about...*shudder* Bratz than Winx.

10AM is the new eppie of TMNTFF in SoCal on 11. I dunno if it's different anywhere else.

Aye.. 10am is the new ep, 9:30 is a rerun and 10:30 is Pokemon er Dinosaur King (which has the original cast of Pokemon).... So if ya miss Veronica Taylor voicing Ash...just watch Dinosaur King...

It may not be popular in the U.S but it's extremely popular in Italy (where the stage musical has been playing for several years).

I must have been reeeeeeeeeally bored... I read this whole dang thread. :-?

I mistook it for Digimon, myself. That Triceratops baby looks exactly like one of them.


Dinosaur King.... heh.... you know when you're dumped by someone you had a meaningful relationship with, and then you get drunk at a bar and pick up a complete slob on the rebound? 4Kids and Pokemon, right there.

Let us hope 4Kids Japanese Tv satellite surfing doesn't pick up Mushiking .

Man, losing pokemon, and no one wants to watch Yugioh anymore.... they really want to find a way to make kiddy card games work, don't they?
