    Did you notice Appa brings Aang's glider staff? He has it in his mouth first time we see him and drops it like a doggy as he lands. I missed it my first watch.

    Gyatso telling Aang he will always be his friend hits even harder when you realize he was good friends with Avatar Roku during his early training years at the Southern Air Temple.

    The series gets better as it goes, but Katara remains soft-spoken for 99% of the show. I never watched the cartoon but was familiar with the series and premise. With that being said I can't compare plotlines or characters directly, but as a stand-alone series, this show does very well at world-building and explaining what's going on so that I'm never lost or confused like I'm missing something important that was left out.

      I was sort of scratching my head at Katara, but I think what it is is that her arc in LA is different in a few ways than in the OG.
      OG Katara was brash and loud and emotional, and learned discipline and confidence. LA Katara is starting from a withdrawn, sad state. No spoilers, but ultimately I like her arc and I think at least some of her characterization is intentional.

    I mean. The one gripe that i have is that they seem to kinda smooth over everyones character flaws. Aang didnt mean to run from his responsibility. Sokka has no rudimentary sexist beliefs from the watertribe culture. Katara doesnt ever really get jealous or mad at Aang for his abilities. I'd honestly rather they still had these flaws so that they could grow from them.
    Or atleast aang. Agree with the take on Sokka that he still has a bit of misogyny. But Aang doesnt actually run away and then proceeds to get blamed by every character for running away.

    I did wonder whether part of the reason is that maybe child actors aren’t so likely to adlib or try to influence dialogue change. I think a lot of ropey dialogue gets managed by experienced actors who realise/know that what’s written can’t necessarily be made to sound good as is.
    In any case, I found that the dialogue gets much better as it goes. Episode 1 does suffer from an exposition burden, which I would argue is a necessary evil so that subsequent stories can develop the story with a lighter touch on the exposition. I think they gave us an awesome distraction while they filled our heads with info.

    Much of the hate is from the fans' passion for the original. The live-action is separate, different,... it's own thing. You have to watch it as if it's your first time coming across the Avatarverse. No expecting, no comparing,... Which seems to be from challenging to impossible for the fans. If everyone did that the live-action would of been at the very least "Good", 7.5/10.

    Hey Meesh and Dee how it been. I hope you two day have been going well. The first episode was good. I like action/fighting. The Air Nomads fighting the Firenation was great. I like some of the changes that were made instead of later of getting Aang backstory. We get it right now as we see how Firelord Sozin and the Firenation kill the Airbenders in such a brutal way.
    Aang fighting the Firebenders was great as well. The Avatar music is playing as well the Sokka vs. Zuko was good.
    I like the relationship between Aang and Monk Gyatso. Which was my favorite moment of the episode. As well as the conversation with him (Aang) and Iroh. I like that they nail the personalities of the characters. Especially with Sokka not liking Aang the first time. Zuko anger. Katara is struggling to learn Waterbending. I like how they show the scenes of Aang, Katara, and Sokka arriving at thd Air Temple as it trigger his Avatar State. Even tho some hated this but I like how this episode was condensed with this episode focusing on the first three episodes of season 1. But anyway I hope you two have a wonderful day. Stay safe, take care and stay amazing.

    Yeah, it looks cool. But the changes made I don't like. I like SOME of the changes, but others make no sense imo. But visually, the show is awesome. 7/10 for me and I hope it gets season 2 and 3 and that it gets better!

    Lol I love Meesh saying "Oh... interesting" every time something in the live action is different from the original animation's story.
    I really loved Ian Ousley's Sokka as well. He totally bodied the role.
    I felt some of the dialogue was a bit clunky with exposition. I watched the first 4 episodes back to back when it premiered and the woke up and finished the series. Excited to see how you two end up liking the adaptation.

    I really loved it! I just completed it and for me it kept getting better, it’s just really sad to see how people are bashing the series for no valid reason! And yeah katara acting definitely didn’t feel very organic but I still do feel like she embodies katara well and that she has so much potential!

    Great reaction as always!
    One warning, this does will actually have some spoilers (arguably) for Legend of Korra… so I hope it’s not too bad since I know you’re not done with that yet.
    I think the first episode overall was quite good, but my biggest disappointment with it is that they didn’t really show the early connection between Aang and Katara… minorly when they didn’t have Aang wake up and show his immediate crush on her, but more importantly they left out Katara talking Aang down when he saw Gyatso’s body by saying that they were his family now. (There were some other minor issues I had, but nothing too important in this episode.)
    But all-in-all a solid start.

    Katara takes a while. Mae Whitman was such a strong voice actor she could carry the emotional weight of the original and let Jack DeSena goof off. In this one, the reality of war is way more concrete and Ousley has to be more the anchor of the group at first. Katara has a different arc. She (and the actor) finds her feet toward the end.

    This one is honestly pretty hit or miss for fans but it's better than the movie for sure lol. I may not like the adaptation as much as others but I look the same way I do at the Star Wars Sequels. They're not my cup of tea but they renewed the franchise and spread it to a new generation and people who may have never given the cartoon a chance

    I really liked the 1st episode. Sokka and Aang are perfect. Zuko is even better than perfect. Katara is ok. Gran gran is a little flat. Uncle Iroh is very good, but I do miss his very specific voice and accent, this voice is not deep enough 😁
    I kinda think they made Aang almost like flying, although he was soaring.

  • @PALMERUSA21
    @PALMERUSA21 Před 3 měsíci

    Technically in the Animated Series Kitara was 14 Sokka was 13 & Aang of course was 12. But did you know the creators of the series originally didn’t have the.mm at this original age. Nickelodeon had them change their age.

    I've completed the season. There were some changes or things that felt weird at first. After thinking and mulling it over, I like nearly all of the changes, I love the characters. There are even some changes that I think make the story work even better.
    There are nitpicks I can make, but I regard this as a sterling success and desperately hope for two more seasons.

    • @wtimmins

      'better': the conversation between Gyatso and the Council flows a lot more reasonably. It doesn't seem as randomly 'BAH YOU ARE TOO EMOTIONAL' as the OG.
      In LA, I can totally understand where the Council is coming from.

    I liked the series, and there will definitely be a season two. Its viewership is ranked first in like 73 countries . Regarding the haters remember the % of people who go online to complain is way higher than the % of people who go online to praise. Also there will always be a group who will hate any changes made to the source material. You’re both too young to remember this but when Harry Potter came to theatres there was outrage because Daniel Radcliffe didn’t have green eyes. 🙄. Looking forward to watching your reactions. 😊

    Show has great visual effects and design. The actors are great to for their roles. My main problem this season was the pacing and the story went all over the place. I think they should have done season 1 into a 2 parter and remain more faithfull to the source material that way. It felt very rushed.

    i think that sokka needed to be sexist in the show, when i was a young boy i looked up to him and when i saw the episode about the kyoshi warriors i respected women more...it sounds weird but some young boys can learn allot about that episode, that is why sokka should be sexist in that episode.

    This episode really shows what they probably couldn't show on an actual cartoon - the serious genocide of an entire class of people. They really pull your heartstrings, and it's amazing.
    Giving the opening monologue to Gran Gran was a genius move - she'd be the only one old enough to remember her parents telling her stories about it, and potentially experiencing Fire Nation attacks on the Water Tribe herself. I checked the Avatar Wiki and it said Gran Gran should be about 80 years old.
    I was REALLY happy with Katara's acting - not only did she look awesome, but she had pretty appropriate dialogue. It wasn't perfect, but it was really good.

    Re: Sokka sexism thing.
    People have hooted and hollered about this, but I don't ... know if they've rewatched the series recently. Sokka's 'sexism' is almost ENTIRELY Season 1 Episode 3 (Kyoshi Warriors). He acts weirdly, suddenly, massively sexist for the episode, Learns His Lesson, and then you pretty much never see it again in the entire series.
    So, as far as I'm concerned, it makes way more narrative sense to drop it as a hamfisted unnecessary story beat. There are plenty of other ways to show him feeling a lack of confidence and being a bit green about the world in general without him spending 20 minutes being a knuckle dragging nitwit.

    • @r3liant890
      @r3liant890 Před 3 měsíci +2

      Agreed. Given the pacing of the LA it'd feel quite weird to get rid of the blatant sexism in like 30 minutes.
      I think that's also probably the reason why they chose to have Aang calm down remembering Gyatsu.
      Given their connection, it makes more sense than having Katara say "we're your family now" after what seems to be like half a day. 😅
      Anyway, deep love for ATLA, enjoyed the LA despite not liking some of the changes. Now, I just hope it doesn't get cancelled because of the hate 🤞🏻

    • @lotus2001
      @lotus2001 Před 3 měsíci

      I think you are misremembering things... he was clearly sexist in episode 1 and 2 and its because he was raised that way. I don't know how anyone can call this live action a mature take on the show when its too scared to show very real things young boys are taught and struggle with growing up. Sexism is real and what you see as "sudden" and "weird" is actually you not respecting animation as a medium.

    • @r3liant890
      @r3liant890 Před 3 měsíci +1

      ​@@lotus2001 I wouldn't take it that far. It's true that's not just in that episode, but it's still just 3 episodes and then it just magically disappears. Which would still be weird in a live action anyway, since that kind of taught behaviour doesn't just go away in a flash.
      Also, yes, sexism of course still exists, but I'd say it manifests quite differently now that in the 90s when the OG show was aired.
      I honestly don't think it's a big deal, but can't argument any further since I don't want to spoil anything from the LA 😊

    the obvious problem i see on the show is the quality of writing just drops after the 4 epi minus the fire nation where the writing for the villans were more interesting and engaging than the main cast where there dialogue seems very stiff and uninteresting. the relationship between the main 3 is not visible it feels like they are together just to get to the north specially the relationship between aang and katatra is non existent and it really annoyed me alot. there is a lil bit of acting problems here and there specially when the heart string scenes happen but they are kids so idk. but the most disappointing thing about it is they did bumi and katara dirty just out right cxr assasinations lol. katara only becomes an interesting cxr in the last 2 episodes unlike the cartoon where she literally drives the plot. once i have that out of the way i kinda like this show the bending and CGI is phenomenal and the justice they gave to zuko and ozai is just crazy. ozai feels like a real person with his own motivation for what he is doing. he is better than i expected 10/10 for the royal family and Zhao except for azula idk what to feel about her it feels weird seeing her jealous of zuko i didn't feel her intimidating demeanor at all. so its a 6/10 show. we wanted it to be great but it ended up just being good. hope they make a se2 and drastically improve the writing and relationships of the main 3.

When he is at the south pole i think he is just hovering using air bending keeping himeslf as high off the ground as he can without his glider like hes sitting on a cyclone u just cant see it. And then finally at the air twmple at the end he is coming out of the avatar state and was floating down.
