Sometimes people try to do unnecessary job just to make it look professional. Anyway they probably wanted to simultaneously bond their casts and make him physically stronger.
one thing i liked more about the live action than the animated one is how aang was adapting to the world 100 years later. in the animation it felt like he was just a natural at everything but in the liveaction he was actually struggling to live in the newer world that he had never experienced
@@10freekie2 exactly. i thought the show was about a 7 or an 8 out of 10 and that was one of the best changes. also the zuko and the 41st division change was prob my favorite change
If I was there, I would ask him where his Homies were at because the last time I checked, there are no water benders in the southern tribe, other than the one that was born years after the raides. And that conquest happened without Sozins comet ☄️ . And the water tribes are not practiced pacifist. Not to mention the northern water tribe almost fell, if it wasn’t for the avatar, and they had 100 years to prepare. To fight the fire 🔥 nation. And the end of the series the Earth Kingdom almost held the same fate as the air nomads. And if you wanna know how powerful one Airbender can be just read the rise of Kyoshi. Find out what one single Airbender did to a whole fleet of water tribe army. Where he literally became a folklore. And lastly, if you want to see how untethered Air-bending is, look no further than the desert 🏜️ episode. Aang was the only character that was not helpless. He had multiple ways of transporting out of the desert. He could fly on his staff, but if he didn’t have that he could jump long distances, he could speed run, and he could use the air scooter for transport. And there is a good chance. He could’ve found Appa too, but he couldn’t risk losing the rest of the Gaang so he turned back.
The best part is that he was still shook after. Like, watch Gordon's face when Dallas cuts in to give his answer. Bro was processing the emotional damage.
"Where your homies at" was DEFINITELY crazy. But holy hell, can we talk about how grounded/thoughtful these young actors are! Their answers are brilliant!

They don’t even realize the entire series aang was trying not to k*ll anyone with his air bending, whereas most of the series Zuko was trying to cause serious bodily harm to Aang. Even fire lord Ozai, his main dilemma wasn’t beating him in the fight. It was not k*lling him. That is how strong Aang was. He literally stopped a volcano from destroying an entire village with one breath of air.
Absolutely, but we know from the comics and animated series that Zuko is extremely powerful in his own right. He is a decendant of Roku, the Avatar before Aang.
@@vihmoraes9237 oh thanks, maybe i didn't understand it cuz i know from the legend of korra that air bending can be quiet dangerous and dark if it was in the wrong hands. So that's why it flew over my head i always knew that they were massacred because of their pacifist way of living not from their "weak" power.

When Dallas said he wanted to preserve the relationship Zuko had with Iroh he absolutely nailed it! In the cartoon I didn’t have a favorite character but in the live action Zuko was my favorite as his relationships make him the most human and relatable. And not just with Iroh the way his relationship with Jee and Ozai evolved through just 8 episodes was very impressive. Somehow then exiled prince had the most meaningful interactions with other characters.
gordon would be a really good friend i would love to be his friend not for clout not for money he seems like a genuine dude im the same age as him i think we would get along but sadly we live very far away i think and i dont think ill meet him.
Ive been an og fan since day 1, and i was worried about how they were going to keep the same trope of the characters and make it real. I think i can accept the characters being slightly different considering these are real people with real emotions. They cant act exactly like the cartoon. Definitely like the balance between staying true to the character but adding there live action feel to it. Im not worried anymore.
I'll have to say when I saw the first episode, the subtleties of acting portraying Sokka, Zuko, and Iroh are so good! It's really the fact that I knew why they were making that facial expression in hindsight because I've seen the animated series. And I think that's something I would appreciate more moving forward with Katara, Aang, and I know for sure Iroh will DESTROY me emotionally. Lol
@@JD-ig7yx I would say Sokka and Zuko carried the first episode, at least to me! The bending felt very lethal and at times whimsical so look forward to that. I would say that the pace of the pilot is very fast, considering it technically covers 3 episodes of the animated show plus some new content so it naturally moved faster. I almost wished that in some scenes they would linger a bit more before moving on but yeah, it feels faster. From what I've heard, the staff are aware of the fast pace too, and they said that this pacing will make more sense when supplemented by the other episodes. So we'll see. Just an advice when watching: if you notice something that they removed, always think if removing something doesn't affect anything in the context of the entire live action series. Or that whenever they make changes, the change makes sense in the live action but not in the animated. Most importantly, remember to enjoy it! Don't spoil your experience by being too critical. This is the only chance we get to experience this show like it's the first time again. 🥺🥳 Once you finish all of it, then you can start critiquing. I'd bet the experience is much better that way. ENJOOOYYY! IT COMES OUT IN LESS THAN 2 HOURS AAAA✨
Without air you cannot breathe, if you cannot breathe you ain't doing ANY bending at all! Air resides in and all around the other elements in some form or fashion. It is truly a vital and revered force. So Team Aang/Gordon for the win!

Albert Kim-"Well, there’s certain things you can draw that when you’re trying to translate in live-action are incredibly complicated, both practically and financially," he said. "There are so many epic sequences in the original series that I wish we could have done, but it would have just broken the bank many times over. The Northern Air Temple episode of the first season is a finale in itself, and if we had tried to do that we would be blowing all the resources right there. So, we had to pick and the toughest part of this process was deciding what to leave behind - and I’m sure there will be fans who are not happy that they didn’t get their favorite episodes and their favorite characters, and all I can say is it pains me too." He added, "I wish we could have done all of them, but there’s the reality of creating eight-hour-long episodes for a serialized drama and also expanding the world in places and telling new parts of the story that hadn’t been told before. That takes up time. I think people think it’s as easy as saying, 'Well there are 20 half-hour episodes of the original. That’s 10 hours. And there are eight one-hour episodes of the new show, so they only needed to make two more episodes.' But it’s not exactly one-to-one there, so that was the process we went through."
This Avatar live-action show should have an adaptation of the Ember Island Players episode. Just have them react to the Last Airbender movie, and it would be gold!
There’s two teen wolf stars in the live action show. The mother and daughter yukimuru playing a badass kitsune on the mtv teen wolf show. Now they played a tracker and a leader of the clan of the kyoshi island leader.
i love the fact that dallas , gordon , and ian looks casual and normal bc of their clothes , and theirs katara looking like a princess w her earrings and makeup and all that stuff 😂💜
I love this show so much. I loved the original animated series and really didn't have high hopes when I saw the live version because basically all other live versions of animated shows I've watched sucked. but this one is no doubt an exception. it's so well done. and I love that Dallas already knows kungfu so he did so many cool moves in the show.
We're hours away from the streaming debut. Super psyched. I've been waiting paying and hoping for more avatar the last Air bender since they made a movie some years back. This is definitely better
Live action creators didn't want to copy paste the animated series as it is and few of the plot changes made by them are pretty good and welcoming as well. I did enjoy watching many of the changes (like Azula and Sozin's intro) as they offered different and fresh perspectives. But it has its own demerits as well: 1) Characterisation is something that was extra ordinary in the OG series (Aang was goofy yet wise and brave but here he is shown to be always frightened and somewhat coward, Katara was passionate, strong willed but here she almost carried the same expression throughout and why on Earth did they tone down Sokka's sarcasm. He was such a lively guy.) Honestly actors playing main characters seriously needs to improve especially Aang and Katara. (PS: Maria Zhang’s acting stood out for me as she portrayed her interest in Sokka quite perfectly. Actors playing Zuko, Iroh and Ozai acted brilliantly as well.) 2) And why is the casting overloaded with Chinese/South east asian origin actors? The main theme of the original series was peace and harmony between extremely diverse nations. Probably this is why the original creators left this project sighting creative differences. 3) The OG creators had excluded visual references of the genocide against air nomads for a purpose as it was meant to be a kids show. But in netflix without such restrictions they could have explored it much deeper and it would have been fresh for us as well. I was expecting to see more of Aang's past and the wiping out of air nomads. The genocide portion could have been longer considering the effort they had put to show it visually. At least 1 episode dedicated for it would have given ample time for the buildup. However it lasted only for 25 odd minutes so it felt rushed to me. 4) There is no suspense at all in the writing. Everything was just direct and linear. 5) This has very less humour than the animated one. Comparison with original is inevitable as the bar is set so high that it's very difficult to match those standards. So considering the above mentioned issues, the OG stands miles ahead than this live action at least for me and I wouldn't agree with anyone calling this as better than the original itself...
I feel like it's actually a good thing if people start acting young. It's when your mind is most attuned to creativity. I started having an active imagination and making things at a young age. If you star in something young it gives you time to learn.
I’m stuck between air and earth, air offers a lot of locomotive capabilities and earth is incredibly practical for any situation (I made up an earthbender character who was lost in the middle of the ocean, and I finds his way back to land by pulling salt from the ocean and using it to move his boat). On the other hand, no one can see air, only how it interacts with other objects.
I honestly really connect more with fire bending on a spiritual level haha thought water being would be cool too.... The least I would like to bend is probably air too 😇
The fact they made Sokka go through bending boot camp is so funny lmao
Sometimes people try to do unnecessary job just to make it look professional. Anyway they probably wanted to simultaneously bond their casts and make him physically stronger.

There’s two teen wolf stars in the live action show. The mother and daughter yukimuru playing a badass kitsune on the mtv teen wolf show. Now they played a tracker and a leader of the clan of the kyoshi island leader.
I knew I recognized the mom!
i love the fact that dallas , gordon , and ian looks casual and normal bc of their clothes , and theirs katara looking like a princess w her earrings and makeup and all that stuff 😂💜
Ian: “Where your homies at?”
Gordon:”Where’s your mom at?”
🔥🔥🔥
this was my favourite interview so far!! great questions
This 4 is growing on me so bad 😂 Netflix needs to focus on the Gaang more moving forward. Can’t wait when Zuko joins this group!
lmaoo gordon's face when ian and dallas were trashing airbenders 😭😭
I would choose Earth as my favorite bc it would (imo) be the most useful
I love this show so much. I loved the original animated series and really didn't have high hopes when I saw the live version because basically all other live versions of animated shows I've watched sucked. but this one is no doubt an exception. it's so well done. and I love that Dallas already knows kungfu so he did so many cool moves in the show.
GORDON GOT SO COOKED BLUD WAS LEFT SPEECHLESS 😭😭😭😭😭
We're hours away from the streaming debut. Super psyched. I've been waiting paying and hoping for more avatar the last Air bender since they made a movie some years back. This is definitely better
I’m forever a Earth girl 🪨⛓️☄️⛰️
Kyoshi & Toph Beifong raised me into it
A "like" word counter would go crazy on this video
It’s how genz talks
@@Lisa-qm5bcLiterally like
Ikr I literally just tried to count how many times they were saying it
I will surely watch this on netflix!
Can wait for this show 🎉🎉🎉
Live action creators didn't want to copy paste the animated series as it is and few of the plot changes made by them are pretty good and welcoming as well. I did enjoy watching many of the changes (like Azula and Sozin's intro) as they offered different and fresh perspectives.
But it has its own demerits as well:
1) Characterisation is something that was extra ordinary in the OG series (Aang was goofy yet wise and brave but here he is shown to be always frightened and somewhat coward, Katara was passionate, strong willed but here she almost carried the same expression throughout and why on Earth did they tone down Sokka's sarcasm. He was such a lively guy.) Honestly actors playing main characters seriously needs to improve especially Aang and Katara. (PS: Maria Zhang’s acting stood out for me as she portrayed her interest in Sokka quite perfectly. Actors playing Zuko, Iroh and Ozai acted brilliantly as well.)
2) And why is the casting overloaded with Chinese/South east asian origin actors? The main theme of the original series was peace and harmony between extremely diverse nations. Probably this is why the original creators left this project sighting creative differences.
3) The OG creators had excluded visual references of the genocide against air nomads for a purpose as it was meant to be a kids show. But in netflix without such restrictions they could have explored it much deeper and it would have been fresh for us as well. I was expecting to see more of Aang's past and the wiping out of air nomads. The genocide portion could have been longer considering the effort they had put to show it visually. At least 1 episode dedicated for it would have given ample time for the buildup. However it lasted only for 25 odd minutes so it felt rushed to me.
4) There is no suspense at all in the writing. Everything was just direct and linear.
5) This has very less humour than the animated one.
Comparison with original is inevitable as the bar is set so high that it's very difficult to match those standards. So considering the above mentioned issues, the OG stands miles ahead than this live action at least for me and I wouldn't agree with anyone calling this as better than the original itself...
These were EXCELLENT questions!
3:10 Because waterbending is still an innate part of her, even without formal training - like a muscle that can be made stronger
“Where your homies at” with the clip of ATLA is craaaazy
1:22 OOF
Gordon Cormier is indeed a Filipino! He looks like the young version of Zaijian Jaranilla who played Santino. Congratulations!
They are hating on air man.. air is like the best.
Missed opportunity for Aang to respond with where’s your parents at 😭😭
I feel like it's actually a good thing if people start acting young. It's when your mind is most attuned to creativity. I started having an active imagination and making things at a young age. If you star in something young it gives you time to learn.
1:15 gordon's flabbergasted face is so hsjskls
Great questions and answers!
perri nemiroff and the avatar gang my life is complete
"where your homies at"
Not even the lighting hurt aang that badly
He looks like shuji in pen15
I love this cast so much
Aang just catching stray bullets from all sides 😭😂😭😂😭😂😂😂😂
And *_"Where your homies at?"_* is *DIABOLICAL!!!!* 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Air you can fly!
Fire aint useless practice more you can unlock electric bending and get free power in the house
Bro id go air bending without a second thought
I’m stuck between air and earth, air offers a lot of locomotive capabilities and earth is incredibly practical for any situation (I made up an earthbender character who was lost in the middle of the ocean, and I finds his way back to land by pulling salt from the ocean and using it to move his boat). On the other hand, no one can see air, only how it interacts with other objects.
Gordon is just so inspiring ❤
I honestly really connect more with fire bending on a spiritual level haha thought water being would be cool too....
The least I would like to bend is probably air too 😇
The things I grew up with ATLA and Percy Jackson series doing great. I'm excited for season 2 of everything!
