#live actio atla

[i-am-mldy]

Now that I've aired out my grievances I think the show does deserve praise in where they succeeded:

fight scenes and the martial arts are fucking badass. Aang and Zuko's fight in Omashu was a highlight for me

the bending looks believable and well-choreographed

costumes are good. same feel as the original but elevated to fit the live action medium

Sokka isn't insufferable anymore thank God (still should've kept his subtle chauvinism but I've already talked about that). I now understand how he pulled so many baddies.

Dallas fucking killed it. Understood Zuko to a T. You can truly feel for Zuko through his acting.

Gordon did so good. Another actor whom you could tell deeply understands his character.

Monk Gyatso made me bawl my eyes out every time he was on screen. He and Gordon did so good.

Suki and the Kiyoshi Warriors are so badass and cool. Episode 2 is my favorite for them alone (plus the chemistry between Sokka and Suki)

Daniel's Ozai has such a presence to him that I couldn't feel in the original. Kudos to the actor.

I actually like that they made Zuko fight back in his Agni Kai with Ozai. He's still trying to be an obedient son by doing what his father asks, but when it came down to it (striking Ozai down), he just couldn't. He tried to fight back his merciful nature but failed, and that for me is much more interesting.

King Bumi is genuinely a good character here for me. He masks his senile bitterness with humor. You could tell he genuinely wants to teach Aang important lessons but is also too angry at him to communicate them well.

Ty Lee's and Mai's actresses also did well in their short screentime. You know who they are even with a few lines.

Uncle Iroh is ok. I have issues with his characterization but the bond between him and Zuko is there. Their flashback scenes are some of the best in the show, like Lu Ten's funeral.

That's all I could think of off the top of my head. The show has its flaws (that I'm sure we all know by now) but it's worth acknowledging its strengths too. It still is a work made with passion by the production and the actors, and it deserves to grow into its potential so they can improve. I just hope they improve the writing ASAP and the direction of the actors (the acting often comes across as stiff and awkward).
