Ok new avatar is ass

Why does he fly without his glider

The fuck is this? korra?

He stops when he bonds with appa

Also he accidentally runs away and gets caught in the storm

He wasn’t even running away

what is this character change

This review is astronomical

“At best, the show serves as a constant reminder of how amazing the original Nickelodeon cartoon was. At worst, it makes M. Night Shyamalan‘s 2010 The Last Airbender film feel like a mercy because at least that poor effort was only 2 hours long."

Why does azula have daddy issues

i mean

i already basically pointed out that the team behind the show doesnt care about the original show

I like the intro but for some reason it’s not Katara voicing it

I like azula having orange fire at first

Mai is actually kind of a character now

But like come on man

Is it worse than the live action movie?

Roku gets shafted

No

Also why Kyoshi in the intro in Rokus spot

Azula always had daddy issues, they just hid it properly until the season finale

I mean like

Ozai didn’t treat her like this

He never really yelled at her

I like the comet attack

I wish it was like the theory of Gyatso wrecking shit though he kinda just dies

the change of all the air nomads being at the southern temple also probably makes more sense

???

ok, I skipped to the last episode to watch it

honestly, the audio is the weakest part somehow

most generic music playing the entire time, and line delivery is terrible

yeah aang is weak

Zuko isn’t bad

They hired every washed up asian actor they could get their hands on to fill the quota

Sokka is fine at best

But not his fault they gutted his character

Meat and sarcasm guy

Also why was the iceberg just above water

Also why does he have the avatar dolls

Honestly Sokka is the only one that kinda sounds like he cares in that scene

Pakku is just “damn that sucks. Ok”

The actor literally said he disliked sokka from the original show lmao

this is a long clip, but this is the fucking climax of S1

it's so bad

it's the music and the VA work

the scenes are shot too close as well, but that's a distant 3rd problem

Yue got the 🐒 jaw

The Firelord and Azula are the only two actors who did a great job with their roles

I'm glad they got screetime this season, even if it does impact the overall story

They shouldn't be in this

Gent, they're literally the only two people acting

in this whole main cast

the background throw-away fire nation subordinates deliver lines and act better than Zuko and Iroh do

Kyoshi warriors and Jet do a good job in their episodes

They made Omashu and Boomy into Indians, and they suck

The cabbage merchant now yells "do not redeem"

Main CastC Tier Sokka - actor tried, they wrote the character terribly D tier Ang - mostly flat delivery, but some of that is the writing's fault Iroh - wrong casting choice, unable to play role of character well, but is at a disadvantage trying to fill the role of a beloved character F Tier Zuko - Genuinely terrible acting all-around Katara - Even more passive version of herself, actress is unable to put any emotion into anything

Genuinely, every other actor in the show is C tier or above

I'm not sure how that's possible

the direction had to be "can you stand still and say your lines devoid of any emotion whatsoever"

I get that it's hard to adapt animation to live action, but this main cast is a special kind of bad

Music is still worse though

Jean Wei Fu better be in the show

the way the first episode is shot (only one I’ve actually started to watch rest I’ve seen is Twitter clips) it makes you think 0 time passed between the genocide and them finding Aang

they play with the timeline a bit too

Zuko's agne kai happens right before the events of the show

rather than years prior

Bro went straight for the north pole and skipped all the air temples

they did a flashback thingy

but yeah, despite being 8 hours long they cut a surprising amount of stuff

About 20% more runtime then the original show and do nothing

honestly the first 20 minutes are not bad

ngl though, the sets, outfits, and even some of the background CGI is really good

I enjoyed the Sozin attack

this was not a cheap show

no it all looks great
