Netflix underestimated ATLA's pacing

i saw all the cool kids have unhinged rants, now it's my turn.

TL;DR the animation is just too fast and the live action can't keep up

#NETFLIX AVATAR LIVE ACTION SPOILERS BELOW#

Having binged the Netflix ATLA Live Action (Natlala? Let's go with Nala for short), i finished it thinking it was alright, or at least servicable. But i wondered why i felt like it was decidedly lesser than the original, even though I had no problems with the casting, the costumes, fight choreography or even the special effects. Despite the drama with Bryke leaving, it definitely felt like there was a lot of love the original show. (though i should note the guy who did the original fight choreography and developed bending as a martial art for the show did have a few critiques)

So yeah, that leaves the writing, which definitely feels rushed. The dialogue has a lot of exposition, a lot of the time characters will just tell the audience what they think. While to an extent that works to make the characters appear like the awkward teenagers that they are, it often gets a little too woody to feels natural. Some noted that it even felt like actors were rushing through their lines, like they were just trying to get the scene over with.

All that might sound like the Netflix version ran up against time constraints, which wouldn't be unusual for an adaption. Compare it to the Netflix's own One Piece Live Action (Nopla), which like Nala, consistented of 8 ~55 minute episodes which stopped just before Logue Town. The anime covers the same material in 45 ~20 minute episodes or 15 hours compared to Nopla's 7 and a third, over double the runtime. And while Nopla left fans pleasantly suprised, it rushing through some plot points and character development was hardly surprising.

The first season of Atla, however, at 20 ~20 minute episodes will land ya roughly 6 hours and 40 minutes. That's less runtime than Nala, which is compounded by the fact that the cartoon had to dedicate more time to opening, account for cuts to commercial and incorporate a fight scene in every twenty minute episode.

Meanwhile Nala cuts 4 episodes wholesale (those being Imprisoned, The Great Divide, The Fortune Teller and The Deserter) and slims down plot elements from various standalone episodes to weave into fewer, larger ones.

That isn't a critique, in fact i think incorporating things like Jet and his freedom fighters and the Mechanic into Omashu was, at least on paper, very clever, though the execution left a bit to be desired.

But that did make it that much stranger that live action felt so pressed for time. Until i saw Neflix put the Blue Spirit rescue mission out and i compared it to the original, which i think is emblematic of Nala's issues.

Now I think both are respective high points of both season 1 of Atla and Nala. The scene is also about as close to 1 tot 1 you can get with cartoon action and, well, Live Action. See for yourself below.

(As a sidepoint i wish they didn't reveal the blue spirit's identity in the title of the clip, the mystery adds so much to the first time viewing of the episode, it would be a shame to spoil anyone on that)

For the clips: note that, while both versions last about as long (The Nala one again slightly longer) a significant amount of blink-and-you-miss-it action sequences are cut from the original and there's barelly anything the Live Action offers in its place.

When the Blue Spirit puts his swords to Aang's throat in Nala. In Atla takes him 1. Whether through the inherit strengths of the medium or the worldclass writing and editing.

Atla simply isn't the type of show where a '5 minute fight' will take over 2 and a half hours of runtime. It communicates ideas at a breakneck pace and i don't think the Live Action showrunners were prepared for that.
