To me the most disingenuous part of them trying to make Ozai more empathetic was having him at Lu Ten's funeral showing honor and compassion??? What is the reality of the story in this context??? Lu Ten's death was literally the catalyst for Ozai's rise to power and perhaps the tipping point of him going from power hungry to completely sociopathic.
Ozai's reaction to Lu Ten's death was not to honor him in fact he went to Azulon and flat out said
"Iroh has no heir and he's a failure you should make me the fire lord" and even Azulon was like DAMN BRUH
The chain reaction of Azulon demanding Zuko's life as punishment for Ozai's outrageous claim leads to Ursa's absence and Azulon's death. It wasn't a moment of brotherly bonding it was quite literally Ozai showing his true colors by blatantly disrespecting the death of his nephew and intentions of usurping Iroh all along. Not being some soft family man who is "really trying"
The NATLA version of that whole event while well-intentioned is ultimately a hollow understanding of the source material and a very disingenuous way to portray Ozai's true cruelty and lust for power

If I started calling Fire & Blood a “bad fanfic” or the “weaker version of the story” just for fun how long do you guys think it would take before I started getting death threats?

i hate the rumours abt season sixteen or a movie so much. it's an indisputable fact that even if it's true, it will never be what we want it to be, produced by jackles or otherwise (fool me once, shame on u, the winchesters). i just want it to die w dignity. i would rather live w the delusional fantasy happy end i made up in my head then ever trust a studio/producers/network to actually listen to fans. the horse is dead and u killed it - please let me mourn in peace.

even though i havent been able to see the new season yet ive seen clips of reagan hugging brett
like
like thats just so sweet to me 😭 like that just shows how theyve grown as friends
oop ill try not to spoil you too much, might put spoilery stuff in tags so you can ignore it-
but yeah, i adore character developments in part 2, Reagan growing more comfortable to phisical touch with her gang and Brett especially has me feeling on cloud 9, Brett knew about her problems, listened and was never pushy with her, only genuine respect and support
and that (as well as the Ron plot) looks very much like a boring cliche on paper, but the show handled it magnificently, the way it didnt feel redundant, cheap or annoying and im super pleased with it

Watching all of the Defenders Netflix shows. So far I’ve finished:
Daredevil seasons 1 & 2
Jessica Jones seasons 1 & 2
Luke Cage seasons 1 & 2
Iron Fist seasons 1 & 2
The Punisher season 1
The Defenders
And while I have a million thoughts about every show, one has me losing my mind-
I CANNOT BELIEVE WE DIDN’T GET IRON FIST SEASON 3: THE MISADVENTURES OF DANNY RAND AND WARD MEACHUM 🥺
Whelp. Onto Daredevil S3. Finally 😭🙌

rewatched star wars ep 1 recently (i have many Many things to say but that’ll come in another post) and i’ve concluded that part of the reason (there are many, mostly relating to pacing, world building and general quality) the new live action properties suck is that there’s a significant loss in the weight to their fight choreography. and i don’t mean that in like an plot relevant sense (altho that is also true) i mean the choreography LITERALLY looks less weighty, like it kinda seems like everyone is just a step too slow in everything and taking a couple too many breaths. the blade crossings don’t have as much of an impact. while that is to be expected w Sabine as a padawan it is very much NOT what i would expect from Shin OR the other guy Ahsoka kills OR Ahsoka herself, esp when compared to like Anakin in episodes 2/3 or Obi-Win thru out
the change really stuck out to me in episode 4 and it just makes the whole thing feel less like star wars and less weighty and it does the cast itself an injustice. i actually think the casting is really well done (natasha liu bordizzo <3) but the literal Everything Else ab Ahsoka in particular is disappointing

I’m... I’m sorry what??? I’m so late to this news, but first of all Netflix you already attempted a live action Death Note in 2017 and it was absolute garbage that was mocked by the entire anime community. And second of all you’re going to be giving it to the Duffer brothers, who have been shit at developing characters and creating and writing compelling mysteries for the last two seasons of their debut show?

The audacity of Trump to call Biden old (while still accurate) is mind blowing. Like baby girl, you’re only three years younger than him.
