    Thanks to my friend, I was able to attend the premiere and screening for Avatar: The Last Airbender! It was such a cool experience being excited with so many fans and meeting the cast as they arrived at the theater :)!
    In this video I'll show pictures and short footage I took at the red carpet and talk about my experience. I'll also have a mini review of episode 1!
    We're less than a week away from the release on Netflix, and I'm so excited to watch the rest of the episodes :D!
    Just realized I said that Jet would have blown up that village, I meant flood that village hahaha 😅

    Its so frustrating how this live action adaption get so much unnecessary hate without watching the show 1st and based their hate on a clip and headlines like i just saw on Twitter & tiktok that they're accusing the people who reviewed this show and praise it are paid by Netflix and i was like man im so done with them🤦‍♂️

      I’m so glad I don’t have Tik Tok or Twitter hahaha 😅! People just need to watch the show themselves before they decide to hate on it! I’ve already seen a RUclipsr who was veryyy skeptical about it months ago, and after seeing the premiere he took back his words and admitted it was a good 1st episode 😁

      @TofuReacts  7 месяцев назад +9

      ⁠@@Ronfost89 oh I don’t want to come off as biased! Of course the atmosphere in a theater full of Avatar fans helped with the excitement! But it wasn’t perfect, and I did have some things I was sad about in episode 1 of how certain scenes weren’t included, but I also do understand why it was done. I also mention how pacing might be iffy with OG fans 😬!
      But I do agree with you that people should definitely be careful with others opinions (good or bad) about the show and wait until they see it for themselves 🙃

    Thank you for pointing out for people NOT to expect this to be exactly like the Original and that if they want to see the original, that they should go Watch the Original! I have stated on other videos that they shouldn't expect this to be exactly like the original but to view it as its own show, separate from the original.
    Also, About Sokka! Thank you Thank you Thank you for pointing out his leadership roll! I have seen so many people blowing up or upset about them apparently "taking out Sokka's sexism," or toning it down. My thoughts have been that they are probably concentrating more on his character growth as a non-bending warrior and his growth as a leader among all of the benders during a war.
    I cannot wait to see this, now! Thank you, again! ❤

    • @TofuReacts
      @TofuReacts  7 месяцев назад

      Yess exactly! I never expected for the live action to be 1:1 of the original. I love that they’re adding things for character development! It will feel new and exciting for fans of the original! I do admit that the pacing felt a little rushed, but I kind of expect that for episode 1. They DID have to show the genocide as well as the main points of the first 3 episodes into this 1 hour long episode 😬 So I definitely understand why it had to be done lol.
      And yesss, about having them focus on Sokka’s leadership! That’s one of his character arcs, as well as being a non-bending warrior. I can see him in later episodes coming off as arrogant as he tries to lead and take charge but then feels inferior as a non-bender. Him and Suki can share that together and it would be more impactful for their relationship. He’s just trying to be strong for his family since their dad left, and maybe his over-protectiveness will be a problem 😬 that’s how I see them “redirecting” the sexism!

    I have a feeling they won’t have Aang waterbend on Zuko’s ship. In the original animation it was a tool used to help the viewer understand that the avatar could bend not just one element. In the live action, I expect they will make it obvious that he hasn’t had any training in any other bending yet.

      Lol 😅 Well, I think I understand where the “sexism” got redirected to. So Sokka doesn’t specifically say anything sexist to Katara. But he does tell her that she needs to stop trying to waterbend and help out in the village (aka clean, cook, etc) he doesn’t want her to fight because he is trying to protect her.
      It may come off as him being sexist… but not in your face “be a woman and wash my clothes” LOL. I can see him making more comments that are out of line in the upcoming episodes though 🙂
