Line 17:
* [[Screwed by the Network]]: The first showing of the movie and the subsequent re-airings; Apparently, even for the first broadcast, they cut some scenes and for the subsequent re-airings they cut out even ''more'' scenes. This is the first time this has happened with the show as even the reruns are shown in their entirety on Nickelodeon.
* [[Ship-to-Ship Combat]]: A large percentage of the people complaining and prejudging this movie are simply angered fans of other love interests such as Trixie, Vicky (straight shota), or Veronica. This is not helped by the fact that the movie makes a point to establish that {{spoiler|[[Negative Continuity|all other prior romantic moments on the show, besides Timmy being kissed by Tootie against his will, simply did not happen, and that Timmy has never truly loved any other girl.]] }}
** A [http://www.nick.com/quizzes/grow-up-timmy-turner-quizzes/one-wish-quiz.html character match-up quiz] on the official Nickelodeon website strongly suggests that Tootie was the mystery mother of Timmy's children at the end of Channel Chasers, adding gasoline to an already white hot fiery debate (or perhaps rather, dousing it with a splash of cold water).
* [[Ship Sinking]]: See above.
* [[Squick]] : A twenty three year old man acting like a child, even if it is {{spoiler|an act to keep beloved fairy godparents}} is kind of creepy. It becomes even ''more'' creepy when you realize that this [[Man Child]] is likely sharing a locker room and bathrooms with [[Fridge Horror|other ten year old boys]]
* [[Tainted by the Preview]]: There are fans who really dislike the idea of making a traditional [[Thick Line Animation]] series into a [[Live Action Adaptation]]. The few previews that were shown prior to the movie's premiere did little to alleviate those fans' doubts about this project. There are a variety of reasons for this ranging from Avatar: The Last Airbender's live action movie (perceived by people to have been done very poorly)to the fact that there is some [[Ship Sinking]] along with the fact that Timmy Turner {{spoiler|never grew up and is now a creepy [[Man Child]]}} Even though the movie has now aired, the reaction still is mixed about it.
** Many of the people hating on the movie here were never going to budge on simple virtue of the romantic plot. I'm pretty active on a few FOP forums and we all knew about Daniella Monet/Drake Bell being in the movie for months before it was officially announced. You'd be surprised how many people went from drawing up cast lists with Daniella playing Trixie Tang, to "live action is a bad idea!!" as their battle cry.
* [[Tastes Like Diabetes]]: For those who didn't like the movie (and even for some who did), the ending was this.
** Also, it's a very predictable and ''cliché'' ending.
* [[Tear Jerker]]: {{spoiler|Timmy and the fairies saying goodbye to each other near the end.}}
* [[Unnecessary Makeover]]: The brief flashback to a live-action "young" Tootie is arguably more pretty, and certainly more recognizable to the viewer, than the live-action "adult" Tootie.
* [[WTH?What the Hell, Casting Agency?]]: Some of the cast.
