Thoughts on the ATLA live action

I may not post about it a ton, but ATLA was what brought me into fandom culture over a decade ago, so as you may assume, I have some Thoughts about the live action netflix series. Now, I'm gonna preface this by saying I didn't hate it. Surprisingly enough. I came into it thinking the whole series was gonna be a hate watch, but they actually did some interesting stuff with it.

Let's start with the positives.

Sokka - When I heard that they were removing Sokka's sexism, I thought his character was doomed. That's so much of his season 1 arc, I had no idea what was gonna be left. Turns out, they didn't take away his preoccupation with being a manly warrior, they just made it less overt, and honestly, that brand of "girls suck!" sexism that exists to get refuted in early 2000s kids tv probably would have sounded out of place and preachy in a 2024 show geared towards adults. In the end, Sokka felt like one of the most fleshed out characters. His original arc was left in tact, with the bonus of him being a simpy bottom for Suki in a way that kinda fits.

Zuko - I really liked that they added some extra backstory between Zuko and Iroh sooner. The bit with the funeral was honestly really nice. I saw some critiques saying that zuko was made out to be sympathetic far too soon, but honestly, I think it worked. The show is so well known that I don't know if gaining sympathy for zuko later on would have the same effect as it did 20 years ago. I thought the Zuko and Iroh moments really helped solidify their bond on Zuko's part, and tbh, that's gonna make his season 2 betrayal that much stronger (if they pull it off well). I also like the stuff they added with Zuko's journal. Of course he's a fuckin nerd who takes detailed notes with sketches about the stuff he's researching. If Zuko existed irl he'd have a bullet journal youtube channel.

The structure - I hate that no tv series gets more than 8 episodes anymore. it's ruined so much when it comes to pacing in literally everything. That being said, I like what they did when it comes to combining plots. It really made the show feel like it's own thing and not a 1-to-1 adaptation. They stuck Jet and the Mechanist in Omashu, and it worked. Roku's temple and The Blue Spirit were the same episode. Obviously, there was a lot of picking and choosing when it came to what plot points they kept and what they scrapped, and it did do a number on some of the characters' development, but the episodes they chose to keep were important ones, and they managed to weave them together surprisingly well.

And now, the negatives...

Episode 1 - The setup is dreadful. The show starts with a solid 20 minutes of backstory. Before you even meet Sokka and Katara, you know literally all the details about the air nomad genocide. And because they show you the entire genocide on screen before Aang is released from the iceberg, you don't get the experience of having it revealed to you as Aang is experiencing learning about it. His avatar state reaction to seeing Monk Gyatso's corpse just doesn't feel warranted when there's not that slow buildup to finding out about the war and Aang's denial of the whole thing. Episode 1 in general felt messy, rushed, and missing a whole lot of vital character growth.

Aang - Honestly, Aang's character in general felt flat. He gives me ipad kid vibes. He feels like a prodigy kid who just doesn't care, instead of a fun-loving goofball who 's scared of responsibility. He makes so many quips about not paying attention to the monks or falling asleep during meditations, and while it's not like he was super studious in the original, the thing he's doing to avoid studying is goofing around. Playing pranks with Monk Gyatso instead of paying attention to the monks. goofing off in a river with Sokka instead of learning waterbending. He's so un-silly in the live action and it's to his detriment. I guess this is just a part of the 8-episode curse, but because those filler moments have to be erased, you really lose out on all of Aang's stupid kid shenanigans.

Katara - Katara fell so damn flat, which is such a tragedy. I saw someone else on here talking about how the lack of Aang helping her be a kid again in episode 1 took away a lot from her, and they are totally right! Specifically, it took a ton away from the bond the two of them have. Really, there's no reason why Katara should have traveled with Aang in the first place. She didn't bond with him over riding animals, or help him understand what happened in the last hundred years (Gran Gran takes care of all that exposition...), and they don't even head towards the northern water tribe to find a waterbending master until after Kyoshi Island, so that's not why she chose to come either. Katara is also missing her whole "had to become the mom after her mom died" schtick. Not that she should be reduced to group mom, but that's still a part of her original character. She got plenty of backstory regarding her mom, but it was mostly grief. There was a little sprinkling of her sense of justice in there, but that's another one of those "victim of the 8-episode curse" things. So much of her character got lost when the filler was cut that there's not that much left over.

The spirit world - I know I just said I liked what they did combining episodes together, but honestly I think they tried to do too much with the spirit world episode. They use the Hei Bai episode to get into the spirit world, but the whole burned forest plot from the original is pretty much scrapped for a Koh plot, which combines the original Koh plot with the fog of lost souls from Korra, and the mother of faces from the sequel comics? The spirit world episode ties to Roku, like in the original, but Roku barely does anything outside of info only important to that episode. Out of all the avatars Aang contacts, Roku is the least relevant. Kuruk is more relevant than Roku. The bit with Monk Gyatso was sweet, but it did feel like one more thing on top of an already cluttered episode. Also, I don't love that Yue was a fox in the spirit world, it felt kinda out of left field. I didn't love what they did with Yue and Sokka in general, their whole vibe felt rushed.

Final thoughts, obviously it wasn't incredible. It's a show that doesn't really need or want to exist. They stuffed the first season of a cartoon with notoriously thorough writing into 8 episodes. But I didn't hate it. Honestly, I was pretty entertained. I fully intend on seeing season 2. I want to see what they're gonna do with Azula moving forward, how they're gonna handle Toph, and what the fuck they meant by "there actually is no war in ba sing se" bc clearly there was a fucking war in ba sing se, Iroh nearly gets crushed by a boulder by a vengeful soldier over it. I came into this with rock bottom expectations, and I was pleasantly surprised

RIGHT ON THE MONEY.

My npc introduced himself as Liandalon (which I fully bullshitted bc I forgot to name him) but I kinda wanna come up with a less traditionally elven name that's more basic to add to the idea that he's playing up all the elf stereotypes.

So like the first thing I had my players see with him was him following the party around and then slicking his hair back in a shop window and giving his reflection finger guns for confidence. Then, with the swagger of a much more respected man, he showed up in front of the party and very suggestively offered them lodgings at the local tavern under the guise of "meeting the locals". Party immediately decided he was a goofball and kept him around, so now he's basically just this one guy puffing his chest out and acting like he's a super cool magic elf (he knows like 2 spells and it's shape water and control flames). He's totally lying to him bc he screams and freaks out at tiny things before remembering he's supposed to be protecting them. They have yet to go to his house, but when they get there, all his walls are gonna be covered in really stereotypical human pin-up posters and he's got a bunch of strange books on human customs shoved under his bed.

I'm so excited to expand on this concept because my party doesn't know that it's totally a gag, but soon enough I'll introduce them to some non-loser elves and let them make the connections lmao

I'll protect Liandalon with my life

This is hilarious and endearing, I love him so much omfg. It's such an honour to inspire a character like that AAA <333

Okay okay so full speculations ahead but what if you take a Michael Scott from the office turn with him? Like the reason he bullshited a very stereotypical elf name bc his actual name is known as an important figure in a company and he holds a high position or something. Which is why he can just afford to offer the entire party rooms at a tavern and why he had a whole big room filled with human posters, relics and very weird books.

Basically, most of his salary goes into fueling his human obsession and to human site subscriptions. He is such a loser irl and very bad at magic which is why he moved to the city and took an office position, which he weirdly turned out good at bc people saw a seemingly respectful elf and continued to promote him.

And huh, maybe he actually had a good talent in sales management or something. But he doesn't care about it at all, he just focuses on the humans around him.

Or maybe, his bullshited elf name is actually his human forums handler? And he got so used to associating that name with humans that he panicked and spat it out in front of the human party by accident.

And god when the gag is broken, it has some potential for drama or some angst.

The party is finally faced with the harsh reality of elves, how much they look down on humanity. How condcending they are while pretending to be nice and sweet. Underestimating the party or completely ignoring them.

Maybe they mention their elf companion to the other elves as a way to get them to approve of the party too, but the other elves just laugh and say they don't consider that human-lover as a real elf.

Like they finally see how much this goffball lovable character sacrificed just to be with the humans and help them, how a lot of elves scorn him because of the party and they blame him for allowing these humans to think they can have any potential as adventurers.

Odnsofjskd man I love angst. Gag characters have potential to go beyond their single gag if done right. Even when the party eventually leaves that city and their elf friend stays behind, he sends them letters every now and then.

Because they were his only friends, even most elves didn't like him because of his human infatuation so he was mostly lonely before they came.

SFW ship ask... Marco x Ace

[REQUESTS STILL OPEN]

SFW version (get the template here)

1. Who is the grumpiest in the morning?

MARCO - He's tired and old, every morning rolling out of his Tempur-Pedic bed is like waking up in a dumpster with a wicked hangover (something he's done many times in his youth so he's very familiar). Marco wakes up at dawn to get at least 45 minutes of yoga in else he'll be sore for the rest of the morning. It doesn't help there's a little fire demon keeping him up all night 😉😉 Ace on the other hand either wakes up refreshed or confused. He has mild narcolepsy in Modern-verse (he doesn't pass out randomly like in canonverse but he does get very sleepy in the afternoon and needs naps) and has extremely lucid dreams, so waking up can be a slow feat to conquer. IRL, he dreams about being a pirate, in OP he dreams about being a comedic stunt actor on a TV show with his crazy friends (guess what it's called 🤣🤣)

2. Who worries more when the other is sick/hurt?

ACE - Ace has a very high tolerance for pain and is constantly getting hurt (plus with his DF he can't really get hurt, unless you have haki) so he doesn't understand what should or shouldn't hurt for other people. Also when he's sick, his metabolism and immune system are in overdrive so he eats and sleeps a lot, and gets better faster. He worries about others because he doesn't know what normal is. Marco, on the other hand, is a doctor. He doesn't give two shits about you, as long as you're not in imminent danger - you're fine. Just drink some tea, rub some dirt in it and get out of his office. Marco is too busy to worry about your nonsense, especially living with Ace, he's become immune to people falling down or accidentally electrocuting themselves. It's only when you're not moving that he's worried (plus with his DF he can just heal you and be done with it)

3. Who plays pranks on the other?

ACE - Ever since I thought about "the dream TV show" I can't stop putting Ace in situations where he's just an obnoxious little goofball (canon) just fucking around and pissing people off for some laughs. Marco didn't always have an undercut, but one day Ace shaved a dick into the back of his head while Marco was passed out drunk and to remedy it Marco shaved the whole underside. He's kept the hairstyle ever since because it turned out to be really flattering on him. Ace is only half upset that this prank backfired (he likes the feel of the stubble when he runs his fingers through Marco's hair) [I have an undercut, it feels amazing 🖤🖤🖤]

4. Who is always the first to suggest cuddling on the sofa?

MARCO - Ace is usually on the couch either playing video games, on his phone, or napping so Marco just slides in next to him and just enjoys each others company. Sometimes, if Marco doesn't have a book or his laptop, Ace will pass him the other controller or show him some videos on phone and they'll snuggle up under the granny square blanket Izou made them. Canonverse it's also Marco, but usually under a thin sheet while they lay on the deck and watch the stars.

5. Who insists on creating nicknames for the other?

ACE - These nicknames are only for teasing and goading like during a battle (hey chicken toes! Over here flappy boy!) or while they're drinking (banana hat, or cheep cheep) but on just a normal day, casual conversation, serious conversation, anytime it's just their names. Marco does call Ace 'babe' during sad and emotional, or sweet and intimate moments.

6. Who says ‘I love you’ first?

MARCO - Ace felt it first but he figured it would have been immature to confess right away so he spent several months holding it in, until one day a sleepy Marco rolled over and said it to him first, and Ace almost started crying. Marco… may have panicked when the tears started welling up.

7. Who’s the messiest one?

BOTH - Ace is messy when it comes to eating (he spills sauces and gets rice down his shirt [I'm also guilty of this 👀👀]) and he leaves a trail of clothes (when he wears any) and toys in his wake like some kind of trash tornado. Marco is tidy in almost every sense except his desk. His workspace is mountains and mountains of papers, both files and sticky notes, he has pens and pencils everywhere and there are baskets meant for organizing stacked on top of each other full of random shit (I am very very guilty of this, my office is a mess of work stuff, work decor [I used to do video classes and have stuffed animals everywhere - need to get rid of them, crochet and sewing crafts, art stuff, Gundam builds, books, video games, several drink cups and bottles, everything everywhere - Marco is like this). Marco even saved little plastic trays from cookie, veggie and tofu packages for sorting his small stationary but it actually made everything worse (very guilty too, also don't keep colored pencils in Pringles cans people). Marco can never find a pen or pencil. And when he does it's either broken, lost it's eraser, or it's out of ink.

8. Who feels the most uncomfortable about PDA?

NEITHER - why feel uncomfortable? They love each other and will express that anyway, anywhere, in front of anyone. They will hold back and stay decent because c'mon, even they know that's a bit too much. But they are never uncomfortable. Ace will, however, will blush if some watching (i.e. Thatch or Vista) wags an eyebrow at them.

9. Who’s the funniest drunk?

BOTH - Ace is an entertainer when he drinks. He sings and dances and performs tricks and stunts like the little circus monkey he is. He is a joy to have at any gathering. Marco is a quiet drinker but what makes it funny is that his resistance is completely gone and anything Thatch and Ace do to him is met with smiles and pats on the head. He's compliant like a sleepy grandma watching her grandkids playing with snails in the garden. Izou will put a flower crown and drink umbrellas in his hair, Namur and Haruta will give him things to hold, stacking cups and plates on top of each other like a precarious game of Marco Jenga, Thatch will put tasteful makeup (which he stole from Izou while he wasn't looking) on him and Marco will gently close his eyes and pout his lips to give Thatch better access. He's a gentle drunk and everyone loves him. It's the most hilarious part of the night. Sometimes they get him to dance but when his partner is Ace it turns into a slow waltz and Ace ends up a blushing mess, forcing them to sit back down. Dancing Marco is quite rare.

10. Who texts the most?

ACE - Ace texts in small bursts, sentences cut into pieces so Marco's phone blows up at leave 7 times before Ace finishes his question. Marco sends a single long message with everything he needs to say. Ace sends memes and shares links with him throughout the day but Marco leaves handwritten "have a good day" notes in Ace's bag and jacket pocket.

11. Who has the most embarrassing taste in music?

NEITHER - they prefer classic and mainstream music. Nothing really weird. On their own time, Marco collects vintage records (mostly 50s and 60s like Etta James, Buddy Holly, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Frank Sinatra; but he also has 70s disco and funk albums) and anything that's soothing to listen to while he does paperwork. Ace likes anything fast and loud (mostly 80s and 90s rock like Guns N Roses, Motley Crue, Skid Row, Saliva, POD, Godsmack, Shinedown, Steel Panther, etc; and some country like Trace Adkins and Luke Combs). They will listen to - and do enjoy - hip hop and pop songs that their friends play when they're all together. They like Ice Cube (You Can Do It), DMX (Party Up), 2 Live Crew (Pop That P****), Master P (Rock it), Lizzo (Juice), Post Malone (Rockstar), and Latto (Big Energy - mostly because it samples Genius of Love and Marco loves funk))

12. Who reads the most?

MARCO - Aside from studying, Marco enjoys reading crime thriller and murder mystery novels, like thoses by James Patterson and Kathy Reichs. He also loves the Honor Harrington series by David Weber (military science fiction) [I, too, have read many of these books, I used to have the first 10 HH books]. Ace likes manga serials like Gintama, Beelzebub, BNHA, Fire Force, and Chainsaw Man.

13. Who’s better with kids?

ACE - Kids love Ace because he's fun and durable (they can beat on him and he won't complain). Kids also love Marco because he has soothing energy and he's really nice. He will teach any little kid that asks how to fish or catch bullfrogs (my dad was like this; very soothing) and is a great mediator when there's a scuffle and Ace can't defuse the situation.

14. Who’s the one that fixes things around the house?

ACE - Marco is too busy to do menial repairs, plus his creaky bones won't allow him to crawl under a cabinet to fix a leaky sink. Ace is really good at repairs because his little brothers (and him) broke so much shit growing up and when Sabo (the original handyman) left (went missing, or got adopted? I don't know I haven't decided if they're in the foster system or not), Ace took over as Mr. Fix-it.

15. Who cooks and who cleans up?

MARCO - Ace has an… unorthodox palate and cooks up the most outrageous recipes to curb his munchies. He's the kind of guy that puts ranch dressing on takoyaki, maple syrup on Oreos, butter in coffee, or peanut butter on a ham sandwich [I have done all of these, and they are very yummy]. This freaks Marco the fuck out and also when Ace cooks, there's a mountain of dishes for only a single bowl of mac and cheese?? HOW?! So Marco takes charge of the kitchen and Ace is the handyman. Win-win.
