People keep saying the acting is bad, and then having people excuse it by saying "theyre kid actors, give em some time". They are professionally trained, bro guarantee this is not most of these actors first gigs. When you watched a nick or disney show when you are a kid, even some older people who are looking back...did you ever notice an exceptionally bad performance?
Cause ive never heard of a complaint about drake, josh, keenan or kel, or victoria or ariana's acting. Those scripts are made in mind for it to be wacky, zany, and while ridiculous still in the realm of how teenagers or kids would behave. This script is dick on the ground. It hinders not only the performance of a kid, but an adult as well. I could put on the most dramatic, award winning performance ever but if im saying "poopity scoopity" thats what youre going to hear on the screen.
Here's an example
Aang: "Omashu was carved out of a living mountain....its one of the wonders of the earth kingdom. Of the world actually...and they have an incredible delivery system that winds through the whole city. And the people there, theyre artists, scientists, builders. Plus...the food there? is amazing!"
Now...please tell me wtf is the actor who plays Aang supposed to do with this 🙏. All he can do is emote the way hes intended to for this line reading, denzel himself could not have made lines like this interesting. First of all, why does Aang give af about any of this? Is this version of aang a culture or architect nerd? Cause this is one of the only times he talks about a location like this and the script here reads like a wikipedia summary of the city. No 12 year old should care about the cultural landscape of a city, not even aang. You ask a a kid what they like about their city or any city they are not going to give you that ^ response.
Why isnt aang talking about oh i dunno...his friend bumi he used to play with 100 yrs ago who we are going to be introduced to soon? How he used to play with him and use the delivery system as a slide, and itd piss off the delivery people or something. If the food is amazing, why didnt he name a specific food? "First thing we're gonna do is get some [food from his time]" Characters ask him what is that, Sokka says something like whatever it is, if its food im down...SOMETHING. No instead we get this dialogue that feels like youre playing a video game and you just stepped into Omashu, and the bottom loading screen text is giving you neat Snapple facts about the city and game.
[Omashu is carved out of a living mountain; it is one of the wonders of the earth kingdom]

[Omashu is home to a complex delivery system that winds through the city]
Episodes 1-5 is riddled with a ton of useless and phoned in dialogue like this, much of which is dedicated to telling us for the 30th time aang needs to save the world, or people reacting to him being the avatar the exact same way. I enjoy Zuko and his squad, and just pretty much any of the fire nation characters (except Iroh who they made very boring and way more passive to everything going on around him). I enjoy Ozai and i think its because Ozai was more of a final boss than a character, so expanding on him can only be an upgrade. Jee, Zhao, again not much to their original characters so they could only improve on them and the twist of Zuko being the reason their squadron is still alive was a nice touch.
When it comes to the kids tho, i personally think its a combo of the script and how some kids are trained or coached to act in movies where they are taught mannerisms and tones that make more sense for how an adult would react to a situation as opposed to a kid.
Either way episode 6 is when the writing starts giving characters more personality, and the journey and episodes have an actual cohesive theme and motif, instead of being pressed to speedrun the journey. This is how the whole series should have been. Using the fog of lost souls for exposition and flashbacks instead of just telling me how theyre feeling, and never being subtle or giving me a chance to wonder or ponder. Through out the viewing, use the fog of lost souls, Iroh's dialogue about using masks, tie in the themes of being lost, the past, memories, etc. The themes of the first episodes are "cover as much ground as possible" and with that you get no inspiration to make the plot interesting and apparently it even hurts the dialogue.
Summary, this script is bad, it weighs the show's quality down. Episode 6 and up is how the adventure should be streamlined. Not every episode needs to be covered if you do it this way, and you can focus on whatever you wanted to do in your adaptation more. But man besides a couple of scenes, 1-5 feels like it was written by the type of fans who dont like that aang didnt kill ozai, or people who took the Kyoshi memes serious and genuinely feel aang needs to not be a b*tch or somethin.

So I recently found out after going no contact with my ex that he was still using all my streaming services. We have been no contact now for over 6 months and broken up for almost 9. I only found because I was going let someone else take his profiles. I also put a pin on the accounts. I really just don’t want him using my stuff anymore. Neither one of us can say we are innocent in the way our relationship ended for us to be at this point.

That’s it.

In the original show, there's a tradition where the monks (or whoever) test the kids on the element the next Avatar is supposed to reincarnate into. They present each kid with a large selection of toys and tell them they can pick any of them. If they pick the four relics that belonged to previous Avatars, they're probably the next Avatar. That scene was not in the Netflix show; they don't tell you how they know Aang is the Avatar. The munks are just like, "Aang is the Avatar; don't ask us how we know; we just know," and when Aang is frozen in ice, how did Sokka and Katara's grandmother know Aang was the Avatar? The grandmother didn't know Aang was the Avatar until Zuko came and asked where the Avatar was, and Aang surrendered himself.
That's when everyone in the water tribe knew he was the Avatar, and when Aang jumped in the ocean and went into the Avatar State, it confirmed that he was truly the Avatar, but the moment he wakes up in the water tribe, Katara's grandmother is like, "Yes, he's the Avatar." How the hell did she know this? Even if she knew the Avatar was an Airbender, that doesn't mean Aang (who, yes, is the last Airbender) is the Avatar. For all she knows, the Avatar could have been killed when the Fire Nation attacked the Air Temple.

Twice now people have been gifted the opportunity to create this show in live action, and they have brain damage. That's the only excuse I can think of to be this fucking stupid in your direction with this opportunity. You are gifted gold and you turn it to a turd. Character development changed. Extremely powerful moments and dialogue left out. The mindset of characters completely different. Why change anything? I understand not being able to fit something, but there's no excuse, of course unless they have brain damage.
I honestly feel bad for the cast. Yes not all casting was the best, but they are getting way to much shit for a brain damage andy.

Upon hearing this news I did a rewatch of S1 and S2 and just about fell off the sofa at the S2 joke about wanting them to record a song that can be in a Super Bowl commercial about a lady loving a travel website. The future predicting continues!
Inshallah dawgs. They are giving us all the slop.

I posted something about this elsewhere and wanted to post it here too. I believe all the talk of Netflix Suki’s portrayal being “sexist” is overblown, and it gets tiresome to see it said again and again.
Cartoon Suki was great… but we have to concede that Cartoon Suki had little depth and no serious character development. She is rather two dimensional from start to finish. How does she start? A strong and confident warrior trying to help people. How does she end? A strong and confident warrior trying to help people.
Don’t get me wrong, I loved Cartoon Suki, but there is a clear lack of depth for her. No serious character flaws. No unique personal motivations. Aang was once selfish and neglected his responsibilities. Katara was once jealous of Aang and insecure about her bending. Sokka was once an egotistical and abrasive jerk. Toph was once a bratty loner. Zuko was once a hot head with an identity crisis. Suki was… Suki.
The Netflix Suki has one up on Cartoon Suki, and that’s in her (sadly plainly stated) motivation to see the world and explore new places. She tells Sokka that he helped her realize there was more to the world, and when she doesn’t need to help her village she will want to explore. She is naive and she is socially awkward. She kicks Sokka’s butt, he is embarrassed to be beaten by her, but he eventually seeks her out to train with her and compliment her skill as a warrior (it’s nearly like the cartoon, minus Sokka outwardly telling her he doesn’t think she can fight because she’s a girl).
Yes. The moment where she leers at him half naked was odd, but it was intended to be funny—and not to use that itself as an excuse, it was just a short moment where she realized she was attracted to him, accidentally stared, realized it was rude, then looked away. It was not as deep as people made it out to be, and she is not nearly as “down bad” for Sokka as claimed here.
Some commentary even suggests that she spends every waking moment fawning over Sokka… and that’s true… minus their opening scene where she takes him down… and the scene where she’s walking away from him after the meeting and he’s continually pursuing her… and the scene where she is training with her warriors and he comes to peep on the training. She is not always at his heel. She has plenty of moments where she is allowed to be herself independent of him.
But, Cartoon Suki could actually be accused of being a throwaway plot device for Sokka. She serves as his foil in one episode, existing only to help further his development and gaining nothing herself. That’s Cartoon Suki, unlike Netflix Suki who still has room to grow on her own.
None of this means I dislike Cartoon Suki or even think Netflix Suki is better. I would have loved if they kept Sokka’s sexism “arc” and if the romantic tension only began after she humbled him, but alas.
Netflix Suki is a unique and interesting take on the character. Maria Zhang does a lovely job portraying her. And if possible I’d like to see more of her as Suki.

Ok hear me out I have a theory - everyone is complaining that all of the happenings in Kyle and Mauricio’s separation is about to play out on Netflix’s Buying Beverly Hills, and not Bravo.
Kyle keeps hinting this may be her last season on Bravo…..what if the master plan is to move the entire family to Netflix and just film Buying Beverly Hills? Separation or not, it will follow their business and family - the girls now that they are grown up - and essentially be the next Kardashians.
Maybe I am WAY off….but never forget Kyle is the Queen of reality…..IMO!
