Koh was actually my favorite! So spooky!

Koh was SPOT ON!!!

and Heibei so cool

@@f1ll3rn that light from his mouth...

For real though, Kho terrifies me

And the acting is cringe and chucky cheese like

@@Drewbreesboss9 nah most of the acting was pretty decent. It was more the dialogue that made it come off cheesy. Sure there was some iffy acting here and there but for the most part the acting was solid.

​@@Drewbreesboss9just a bitter hater. Funny thing is, you are just a NOBODY. lol

Better as the Most Movies

@@joemomma6317not even close bud. Open your eyes

Lol yh the cgi was fine koh was a little 2 much but nothing 2 cry about just a few acting was not the best and a few things was rush other than that well done Netflix

I wish we would have seen him a little bit more through the episodes. Hopefully we get to see him more often in the other two seasons.

Yeah Momo was sadly nit on a lot of scenes..such a pity

Cute? it's hideous. Not blaming the designers though, that monkey-like creature has always been ugly.

Yea but the other atla fans want 1/1 recreation of the series 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

​@@wt1272I second you

Yikes, not much of a backbone then.

The writing is. Always the writing.

SECRET TUNNEL!!!!

I was a little disappointed on the Koh part but I understand they’re covering it all into a space where they can coexist and make sense in this adaptation but it’ll take some time but what I can appreciate is the level of respect they have taken with this property instead of fully writing it off into their own and being a completely different beast which a bad adaptation would do. I’d look at this more like the LOTR of TLAB as it’s not 1:1 but it hits where it needs to.

This is the most correct take I've seen online

​@@erin_garinger yes

You encapsulated all that is need to be said, I love it

Well said! I feel the same way. It’s definitely worth watching. It’s not perfect, and it doesn’t have to be. I’ve had a blast personally

Iron and Zuko’s character is the best part of the show, well developed and thought out. But on the other side, Aang and Soka’s characters are lacking depth and development. If I just watched shows for their effects I would see a Micheal Bay movie.

Zuko’s portrayal and character arc was by far was the best and most consistent from the original show, everyone else’s character portrayals don’t even come close!!

WE WANT TOPH

It was cringe. Azula looked like a sumo wrestler

​@@Drewbreesboss9whatever. That doesn't change the fact that you are still a NOBODY. just go to bed and sleep. Lol

​@@Drewbreesboss9 ?

@@tess3554she’s huge bud

​@@Drewbreesboss9 I agree. I don't know what "passion" they were watching because the Katara actress was by far the most emotionless actor of the bunch. She is incredibly boring to watch and listen to. Very plain and emotionless performance in my opinion

And the acting was garbage

@@Drewbreesboss9 I disagree with that

@@LopezCreationsAzula. Really? She acts like a pouty child. Even as a child in the flashbacks in the originals she was devious and sinsiter

@Drewbreesboss9 You're right, but I kinda like what they're doing. From what I saw, I think they're building Azula up to that point and her fire being symbolism of that. I like her character in the original but I think this version is pretty interesting in my opinion. But I see your reasoning

That past thing doesn't exist to us😂

but being said, nothing will ever beat the OG ATLA the animated series. I dare say not in my life time. It is forever a masterpiece in my heart.

Yeah, me too it just feels like watching the show again and I was watching it with my brother and we were having so much fun like we used to when we were little

@xo_coolbeans LOL absolutely. Erased in my mind

There is no 2010 AtLA live action adaptation in Ba Zing Ze.

Should've said opossum-chicken

@@ZombieAssassin7777 I thought it was a chicken rat, how unappetizing lol!

human chicken

"almost"

As far as I remember, in the original cartoon there was a bear, just bear, not a hybrid. So maybe they have normal chickens too. It's possible, I guess 🤷🏼‍♀️

The show is garbage. Azula looked like a sumo wrestler

Same omg!

Yes everything is better than that movie, I was once recommended an unlicensed dub of some weird comic that felt like avatar but if it was written by crazy people, the acting was awful (everyone was either board, annoyed and failing to ham up their acting), it was 2 like hours long and I’m pretty sure it’s somehow better then that awful movie.

@@robbycooper6787 yep. 🤣

Compararla con esa cosa que no existió es un insulto

No, it’s not great, they completely ruined the characters, especially Aang and Soka. No character development at all

@@surajkhatau8295 you must be joking

Yup, I know the rating for this like PG13 but after seeing Koh I was like nah they need to stretch this to 16+ gotdamn this dude is creepy af!!

If I just watched shows for their effects I would see a Micheal Bay movie. There was no character development from Aang and Soka at all and the show fell flat. I’d stick to the originals

Facts. Just watch a Michael Bay movie if you are just in it for the effects

I would like to see like 30/40 seasons of avatar netlix and stranger things, if they made em haha

@surajkhatau8295 you think Sokka's character was underdeveloped?? I was really happy to see more aspects of his personality and more emotion from him. I always thought he was a lil too nonchalant in the animated version when he went through the same traumas as Katara, but somehow SHE was the one who assumed the majority of caretaker responsibilities in their dynamic and was seemingly more affected. Of course we got glimpses of how Sokka felt, there's a couple times where he's upset about Yue and then the conversation with Toph about his mom later in book 3, but those were like "hidden" moments and I feel like it was really refreshing to see him step up and also express his feelings more. A lot of the changes and shifts were definitely jarring for me don't get me wrong I'm a lifetime fan and no art can exist without criticism lmao but this video we're commenting on is specifically about the visual effects and I'm gonna give that team their flowers for sure because it was gorgeous!! ❤️‍🔥 seeing Koh this time around literally gave me chills they did such a good job! 👏🏾

@@amirahchatman7423 everyone these days can have good effects. It’s industry standard at this point. I do expect the writing to be good, and Soka’s character feeling grief is not a problem, but I didn’t see much admirable traits and character progression as they set out on their journey. I focus on good story and this was not it. I’ll stick to the originals, good graphics or not

​@@surajkhatau8295so dumb and idiotic for you to compare live action adaptation to the animated one. Anyways, you are just a NOBODY so your opinion is futile. Lol

Don’t give excuses the show was trash

@@Drewbreesboss9 Ive seen you comment on multiple peoples comments hating, get a life. Your really just embarassing yourself The actors, directers, and everyone else did an amazing job if the show wasnt up to your standards oh well and everyone on that show is way more successful than a joke like you. Talk when your someone that actually matters.

@@surajkhatau8295 it's still kinda early in the show overall. They confirmed at least book 2 and set up how both characters are supposed to learn to be what they did in the cartoon and at least seemed to hit all the major points with almost every, minus the aang/katara romance bits.

@@ninomitchell2039 They could make it up in Book 2, but when I watched this first season I wasn’t impressed after episode 3 and cringed mostly

@@surajkhatau8295 I'll give you that. The part that admittedly caught me off guard was the secret tunnel part being a soka story instead of aang. For what it was though, I didn't think it was bad.

... and the only good done part of the show.

Plot-wise it's not that great. I don't like some of the changes they made but I blame Netflix's 8 episode season format@@surajkhatau8295

Well, if they do a season 2 that is going to be inevitable considering what happens in the original show!

Appa's lost days...... Oh gosh

I really hope they get the budget to do one or two more episodes bc the pacing was waaay too fast IMO, that’s my only real critique and I know it wasn’t their fault bc it was probably due to budget constraints. I think that would also have solved the exposition problems. I seriously am *begging* for a second and third season ❤❤❤

appa will be more in s2 remember he got stolen , so appa must be shown more in s2

The creators have completely ruined some of our favorite characters. Aang and Soka especially didn’t exemplify the roles which made them great in the original. Aang’s progression as a bender is a constant theme that was ignored which makes him look weak and Soka not emphasizing his leadership skills and desire to be a warrior makes him useless (and as a non bender he doesn’t find his place). The only character who actually grows is Katara which there seemed to be a lot of focus on, but the show is ATLA not Katara the water bender

Wrong. It was garbage

​@@surajkhatau8295 Sokka honestly kind of sucked for much of the anime, so I find him much improved in the live action. The fact that they are all aged up as well makes the increased maturity more believable and is more palatable for adults. On the whole I thought that the changes due to the needs of a more compact story were very thoughtful and worked well. It’s a matter of opinion at the end of the day but I think saying that the characters were "commletely ruined" is an exaggeration regardless of whether you liked the changes or not.

Only if they did it well. Characters were not well developed, especially Aang and Soka. I’d stick to the originals which knew how to balance characters. This felt very flat

@surajkhatau8295 thats unfortunate you feel that way. But adaptations will never be able to do 1:1 replication. I rewatched my favorite episodes after viewing and it was a nice contrast. Source materials will always be superior, but its nice to see adaptations for a fresh take. Im a fan of both!

They didn’t even try to replicate the original, the acting is so corny and chucky cheese like. Azula looks like a sumo wrestler

@thenegotiator8414 i disagree. I think they did a good job adapting! 20 eps -> 8 eps is not easy.

The deeper characterizations beautifully enhanced things

yeah it's quite funny how both are completely gone for massive stretches of the series. so stupid.

It doesn’t. Aang and Soka have no character development and their story is not entertaining to watch. I cringe seeing how little they grow and find pride in their talents, Aang as a skilled bender and Soka as a leader. The show makes them look so weak and needy. I was so disappointed

The obvious problem with the show is that the character development for Aang and Soka fell flat. Aang learning to be a strong bender and Soka wanting to a leader and warrior was completely ignored and he instead wants to be a “mechanist”. This fundamentally changes character motivations and is cringe to watch. Katara is the only one who makes progress in her training and growth as a character but the show is ALA not Katara The Water bender

Nobody likes it. It’s trash

Took me from Thursday through Sunday so 3 days

Bit of a creative oversight. But that couldn’t ruin my enjoyment so easily

No they didn’t. It was worse than the Shemaylan movie. The acting was cringe and chucky cheese like. And Azula looked like a sumo wrestler

It's alot of rendering!

Oh if they get renewed for season 2 you know appa gon get more screen time. They will get flack if they don’t do Appa arc in season 2.

Not enough momo either. It’s not a bad show. But when I want a remake, it want it word for word. But that’s too high of expectations apparently. But again, to each their own. Better than the movie definitely. But I’m still struggling to like Katara as she’s a freaking mute. I feel no backbone or strong emotion from her. But that’s how I felt and saw it from. Others may see it differently.

@@redhotfreckles97 I felt all the characters were written differently too and I didn’t like how much the plot is changed. it is a good show but for me the characters should not have been written differently.

@@drarrej I agree. It’s a good show if you didn’t watch the animation. It’s okay when there is a minor change here and there. But once it becomes too many, it’s like stepping in lava, ain’t no way of getting out.
