'Enchanted' was a Disney movie. Disney = A multi-BILLION corporation, with decades of experience. And while Rai animation's pretty big to, they don't come close to the budgets Disney films (Be it real-life, animated or mixed) have.

as long as its not cheesy, i dont care and i just thot up another potential problem with cartoon/animated characters, their outfits were ok, but with real ppl, i think that that would scare some kids/their parents off my parents already say how bad they're dressed, imagine with real ppl (so far i've been saying that they're just cartoon characters and if it were real ppl then it wouldnt be that ok)

I don't think it will be a problem with special effects, it will just look cheesy having someone in real life crossing their fingers and rotating around in a circle, or even the enchantix having it appear on their body it would just look bad if you ask me.

I contacted Michael as he seemed to have been in New York or knew someone that was there that got Winx Club information.
'Hi Michael,
I have a bit of a favour to ask of you. As you told us there will be a 2nd Winx Club movie coming out Christmas 2009. Well the people over at Magix Club forums have been told that this 2nd movie will be Live Action instead of 3D like the first one. I was hoping you could post on your website or email me back saying if this is true or not. It would be of great help if you could say if this rumor was true or not.' <- My email.
Michael Grant to me show details 3:31 PM (1 hour ago) Reply
That's a rumor only. The Winx on Ice Tour is live action figure skaters. <- Michael's reply.
So I don't know. I am hoping it is just a rumor like Michael said but I guess we will have to wait and see to get a for sure answer.

(very glad to find out it might just be a rumor)
Humbu, you brought up a great point. The girls' outfits and costumes are a bit too risque to put on real people. In a cartoon they can cover up lines and smooth over parts that are accentuated too much. However, with real people this will not work...unless you can find anorexic girls who have featureless bodies, which would be hideous. The problem is that the cartoon girls have unrealistic proportions to begin with and human teens are much different in body shape. I just can't see how almost all of Stella's outfits and their Enchantix outfits would look decent and not show too much on real people. I think they'd have to modify the outfits too much, to cover more of the girls than is done in the show. In that way I like animation more because they can get away with more costume issues. Otherwise, if they alter the outfits to put them on real people they also destroy characteristics of the show.

I am hoping that this is just a rumor, because I agree about the outfits. I noticed today that in season one, all of the girls regular outfits show their midriff, and at least at my school that is against school dress code. Especially stellas top, it looks like a bikini top. It looks O.K on a cartoon, but on a real human it would look weird. But I do think that if you do the winx outfits right they will look fine (I think the winx power show costume designers did a great job with the winx girls outfits)

I really hope that's a rumour.
I cannot honestly see an idea like that working, CGI fest anyone? Too much of it always looks scrappy.
Unless.....Someone mentioned that the 2nd movied will be following on from the 4th season, and on the liscencing show flyer it says something about the winx going to earth, perhaps the fourth season is just a set up for a live action movie.
