natla is not perfect, not the best if i’m being honest. it’s just okay (better than the movie) and this is me without my puritan glasses on. casts were good, i especially like how dallas nailed zuko’s awkwardness lol, and i appreciate their dedication to do their own stunts. vfx and costumes were great. the writing tho… this is the reason why i stopped watching live actions in general. i’m aware that adapting a book or a cartoon is hard and it doesn’t have to be 100% accurate but if you’re gonna add or remove stuff at least make it make sense and ties the whole story together.
the only reason i want a season 2 is because of my girl TOPH 😤
#random ramblings#the casts and vfx saved it for me#and some of the additional scenes#but other than that it’s quite lacking AND they somehow ruined the complexities of the characters#i guess this is just a modern thing when it comes to adaptations#a show can be woke and don’t compromise the storyline okay!#atla already is ahead of its time when it was released#maybe it needs some tweaking and that’s what the adaptation should’ve fixed#i will stop nitpicking lmao#i honestly have a lot of things to say especially with how writers are trying so hard to conform in modern society’s standards#this is why i haven’t watched pjo yet cuz i’m afraid i’d get disappointed#disney failed me multiple times already and netflix is behind them#natla#atla#avatar the last airbender#avatar live action
