general

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

music being this bad doesn't make sense

Zukos scar could be more scar but

all they had to do was play the avatar theme

play the original sound track

none of the characters look great, but I wouldn't care if they actually were capable actors

Play the chaka chaka chant

Was there a scene between aang and Ozai where he said I AM THE AVATAR I AM THE AVATAR

I also heard that the pirates were cut is this true?

probably?

not really sure, I didn't watch 100% of it, just jumped around

there were some other street vendors who probably filled the same story beats

The Ozai scenes are good

Bro changed the entire fire nation's race so he could be a firebender

Pirates are my favorite group of season 1

Because they're greedy?

How interesting

No because water bending scroll is one of my book 1 favorites

That's a choice

I don’t know why

I think it’s because as a kid I had the dvd of the second 4 episodes (bumi on) and I didn’t like the omashu episode for some reason and scroll is next after that

Uh

I think it was the growing crystal that child me didn’t like

so scroll just ended up being the one I watched the most

?

Then I’m misremembering

I thought it was 6

Or i just had the 3rd dvd

Jet I remember being a favorite episode though

I also didn’t mind the great divide lol

The great divide is more enjoyable than anything from korra

I'd even rank it above most of season 3's filler

I hate linux

I hate linux people

Nginx is forking for no reason, and will break the majority of out-of-the-box open source compatibility

1/3 of all web services

Over analyzing Avatars discord says pirates were cut along with great divide and haru

they did a small great divide type thing

much shorter though

Haru was probably cut because that scene was memed to death from M Nights movie

they did the Iroh captive sequence well

and the white lotus setup wasn't overdone

honestly, Northern water tribe was the weakest part of the season

in terms of story adaptation

skipping the air temples was replaced with more flashbacks

and it's a fine styalistic choice, to give more insight into Ang gradually

(does a better job than his awful acting for sure)

I’m surprised they cut Sokka in a dress

I thought all of the lefties thought the right wingers hated that part because of the cross dressing

ok ive resumed watching first episode

wierd cut from when aang and sokka first talk when hes looking for appa

why is the firenation ship so fucking close to the water tribe village

holy shit

having Gran Gran do theintro speach is so fucking exposition

she just gets up and says it

they cant deliver lines for shit oh my lord

i guess it makes more sense for Sokka to not be the only teenage boy in the village
