  • It’s time to watch another bad adaptation because I love suffering! In preparation for the Netflix live action I decided to force myself to watch the 2012 live action movie and it was, perhaps, worse than I remembered! I’m going to do my best to keep my hopes up for the new live action. If anything, it cannot be worse than this one was and I can live with that!! Will you be watching the new show?? 🌊🪨🔥🌬️

    Nobody _EVER_ talks about the worst part of the six earthbenders scene, though! The six of them weren’t even the attackers, _they were just setup!_ All of them do an entire dance routine to float a small rock slowly through the air….and then 5:05 _ONE GUY,_ in _ONE MOVE,_ launches the damn thing at _at least_ five times faster than they moved it!

    The thing is we've already seen how a modern day netflix Avatar would look with Dragon Prince and, even though its pretty good, they took what Avatar would have told in 2 maybe 3 seasons and turned it into 6. That's not even including the limitations of life action CGI technology which is ever escalating but will never beat the animation. Therefore, unlike with One Piece where they were actually able to improve the pace and trade realistic, strong acting in a more realistic setting, the Avatar remake will likely worsen the pacing or at best keep it the same and will have to reconcile trying to make realistic a world that is intentionally made to be fantastical and cartoony.
    To give credit, I do think they are right that they can make an improvement on Sokka's misogynic tendancies but what a graveyard of Ls to attempt to face to fix one problem. I hope new kids like it is all i can say

And it helps keep that beautiful, perfect animation alive.

I watched the movie and was like “why does everyone say it’s bad? It’s lowkey kinda good.” Then i watched the series and MAN at the end i cried like a baby. Instantly became one of my favorite shows. Just finished watching it for the third time about a week ago. And then i also realized how horrible the movie was. I dont know why everyone always feels like a good show needs a live action.

I considered it to be a cool concept. Of course it's a bad adaptation, but I'd argue it's an ejoyable movie as a standalone.

    Let's not forget that this came out at the height of trying to make every movie a 3D release (as an afterthought in post-production). Which meant, you could watch 95% of this movie with your 3D glasses off (which I totally did to check) whilst paying twice as much for the tickets and useless glasses on top 😂 I remember not being able to find a local 2D release for this. Bonkers!

    I have watched 5/8 episodes of the new live action. I loved the first 3 episodes and then it just got SHOVED together, like they wont ever have a season 2 so season 2 is just diced up and forced into the current events, but like... its not as impactful if you dont have that season of emotional build up. Casting: nearly perfect. Costuming: a bit too clean and cosplay-esque, but good a$$ cosplay and THOSE HAIRSTYLES ARE ON POINT! Scenery: look, i know 80% of it is CGI but it's f^@^@&&ing gorgeous, alright. Score: good. Idk if it's James Newton Howard powerful, but it's good. Storyline: watching this so far has only made me feel good as a fan. As a new watcher of the whole original series and kora (i only watched just last year), i wonder if making this live action series is even worth it. The animation has so many good jokes, and you get to see all of momo and appa, and Aang's eagerness to goof off showed that 1) he's a TWELVE YEAR OLD BOY and 2) he's still in denial of this whole thing and doesnt want the responsibility at all until after he DIES the first time. He doesn't get serious for a hot minute because it's a lot, you know? 12 yo brain isnt gonna process all of that by throwing one singular avatar state tantrum and having a good cry. Denial is a part of the process, and gosh does Aang go through it. He even avoids sleeping just to avoid feeling stress from the weight of his responsibility. I dont feel like the live action really hits that as well. It's a really respectful adaptation, but i just dont see a point in it if it's just a subpar clone. You're right, the show is just too good for any adaptation to hit well enough.

    Watching this after the live action show, I can tell you its much better. Also after watching this video, I am very g;ad I havent watched the full 2010 movie
    If any of you fans are lookig for another near perfect cartoon, I highly recommend The Dragon Prince! I am sure a lot of ATLA fans have watched it at this point though. It is written by the Same head writer as ATLA and one of the main characters is voiced by the same VA as sokka Jack de Sena. They also included a lot of easter eggs for the ATLA fans which makes it even more fun to watch. I really want to see Mikeala talk about it though! I think those would be some fun videos

    Genuinely "flow like water" is singlehandedly one of the most beautiful pieces of soundtrack out there. The soundtrack on the whole is phenomenal! I really think thats the main reason I liked the movie when I saw it in 2010 for the first time (i had no movie taste until I turned like 14 or so). It's really a shame that such a good soundtrack is associated with such a horrible film lol

    I saw both the animated one years ago and the new Netflix adaptation. I liked them both. They were different, but differences from source material arent presumptively bad. I liked many of the changes (especially the character nuances brought to both the villains and heroes) and thought they actually improved from the cartoon. I dont expect fervent purists to agree with me on that. But i wish people would give it a fair shake and judge it on its own merits, rather than condemn it for not being a scene-for-scene, line-for-line duplication of the original. If thats what peoole want, they should just go watch the cartoon again, with all its goofiness and dubious morality about never killing people despite being in a war.

    I actually the the character for Aang seems pretty talented and I think the costumes weren’t too bad. It was different and didn’t stay true to the animation but was still believable. Dev is super talented and I think they did their best with the dialogue/script they were given. Still a bad movie but I’m not happy with the new series either.
