Saw this pop up today, don’t know how long it’s been out. Thought the first season was fine, my major gripe being the Azula casting. I don’t think she’s pulling off her character. Hopefully that changes.

I’ve been looking forward to this season as we get Toph and Ba Sing Se.

yeah, my 2 biggest problems with live action with kids is: they grow up way too fast. Aang already looks too old and Azula is nowhere near as menacing from the trailers I saw.

It’s absurd how long between seasons that modern TV allows particularly given there are always only 8-10 episodes now

Finished S2. THought they did a faithful job of condensing the entirity of s2 into 7 1 hour episodes. What they cut out, they left in mentions for fan service. (e.g. Leaves on the Vine)

What they do great:
1. Condensing the story lines.
2. Special effects are top notch.
3. Understanding the emotional notes they need to hit.
4. Judee casting was amazing.
5. Long Feng casting was amazing.
6. Kyoshi Warrior Suki steals every scene she's in.
7. The voice acting sounds almost identical to the anime in many respects.
What they did good:
7. Toph was well done.
8. Saka and Kitara
9. Uncle Iroh
What needs polishing.
10. Aang's acting is distracting. This could be a Star Wars Phantom Menace young Anakin type situation.
11. Zuko's acting can be distracting at times.
???
12. Mei - Azula's knife throwing minion - in the anime she's razor thin. In the live action, they cast a larger actress. I'm having a hard time imagining Zuko's inevitable hook-up because he's scored with hotter peasants.

Netflix did a good job on this. I'm not sure how people who aren't fans of the anime take it, but I liked it. Can't wait to see S3.

The 1st season dropped on Netflix in 2024, that is only 2 years ago. What is strange if season 1 was a movie, 2 years would be about the minimum before a 2nd movie would be released and it would not feel as long.

Early 2024 so it’s been 2.5 years

Well it’s not its Tv



Standard TV used to be 20+ episodes every year.



Now it’s 8-10 episodes every 2-3 years if they can get to it

These types are more long movies than typical TV shows

The reason the those TV shows had 20 episodes were the sets were like 3 places

I mean you're acting like the Earth Kingdom girl wasn't considered better looking from the fan base than Mai in the og show. Even watching the show as a teen I never really found her that attractive despite being the same age
