It's not as good as the cartoon, but it's still good. The visuals and animation are great, I love the air temple raid scene, and some of these casting choices are great. Zuko sounds almost exactly like the original VA
I feel like even if Bryke and Aaron Ehasz were the ones making this live action, it wouldn't be "as good as the cartoon". Because the cartoon has a vibe of its own. It's also endearing because it's new, which ANY adaptation wouldn't be, since it's an adaptation. It's like... idk the animated movie of the Lion King is unique, and no live action, be it the best possible, could ever copy that feeling we have when we watched the animated Lion King, grew up with it, and just felt it deep down when discovering it for the first time. It's exactly the same here, a ATLA tv show said by the same writers wouldn't be ATLA, it still would be an adaptation. At least, here we have a new take, and there are bits they added that I really liked (but it's later in the show, so no spoiler)
@@Thebiggestpapi2097 I think you're talking about the un-earned soapbox speeches, which are just clunky writing that even the best actors would struggle to pull off
I love how they're changing it here and there! I feel like we would get bored quickly if it was exactly the same. And people should stop hating on the acting. It's already so much better than the movie and acting is not easy. Also the bending is epic!
The first episode was good. I like action/fighting. The Air Nomads fighting the Firenation was great. I like some of the changes that were made instead of later of getting Aang backstory. We get it right now as we seed how Firelord Sozin and the Firenation kill the Airbenders. Aang fighting the Firebenders was great as well. The Avatar music is playing as well the Sokka vs. Zuko was good. I like the relationship between Aang and Monk Gyatso. As well as the conversation with him (Aang) and Iroh. I like that they nail the personalities of the characters. Especially with Sokka not liking Aang the first time. Zuko anger. Katara is struggling to learn Waterbending. I like how they show the scenes of Aang, Katara, and Sokka arriving at thd Air Temple as it trigger his Avatar State. I like how this episode was condensed with this episode focusing on the first three episodes of season 1. But anyway I hope you have a wonderful day. Stay safe, take care and stay amazing Angelina
It definitely is more serious and dark but also feels balanced enough i just finish watching the whole thing and I love how emotional many scenes are it got me so sucked in. Love the direction they took with this live action it just works
Sorry to be that person but...for Aang, that conversation with Gyatso would feel like it happened yesterday...imagine the emotional hit. I like how more mature this series feels, while keeping the essence we love!
@@AlbertoMartinez765 Fr I honestly feel a little bad for the people who are so hellbent on hating it, it just goes to show they have a bad relationship with happiness.
Love it, yours is the first reaction video I watched! I like the new take the series is doing. All the story is there, and I love what they chose to flesh out more. I've always wanted to see the day the Fire Nation attacked, and it was perfect!
I love ur pfp Angelina! Your video make me laugh so much no matter if I’m having a bad day if a horrible day! I love your personality, A person who isn’t scared to let out her own opinions!💝👏
I loved it I already finished it and they changed quiet a bit but it’s till good…Ozai is more manipulative of azula and even tho we barely see her she still slays especially at the end but that’s were I’ll leave that.. I love zuko and how he never says “my honour”. I just found it a bit repetitive in the og and almost comedic…also the way they handled iroh is amazing…there are more season two things coming so be prepared for that…and the spirit world episode is also amazing…the gyatso arc in read is good..I like how they changed yue and the changes they made made sense…overall pretty good adaptation. They also fill plot holes the og had like why and how zuko got his crew….okay byee before I give spoilers
I’m really enjoying it so far, only 2 episodes in. If you do continue I hope it would come to TH-cam eventually as I would really like to see your reaction
Yes, if Aang dies, another Avatar would be reborn. But that was the problem, Aang never died, he was trapped in ice. So there was no Aang, nor was there a new Avatar (born of the Water Nation) to stop the Fire Nation for 100 years. One thing they never really talk about but I've always found interesting is that Aang is at a slight advantage in that no one has experience in fighting an airbender for 100 years because they were all wiped out.
@@Joeru510being a dick to your 12 yo childhood friend after 100 years is not about serious tone. It is just destroying a beloved character, at that point they could just change his name and create a new character...
@@yuanzaii that’s what I meant by it being serious toned, cause bumi was more lighthearted with aang in the animation while also giving him advice on what he needs to do. But instead like you said he became kind of a dick. Like the guy that forced him in the avatar state in the animation.
@@Joeru510 sorry but that doesn't make it more serious. It does not make any sense, what do we have to understand from that? If you are a douchebag king you can survive a war for 100 years? PEAK FICTION The way Bumi acted is more childish then the whole og cartoon characters. They could easily make him bitter, angry or serious and actually a normal human being who still loves his friend and just a bit frustrated but still a wise king.
Looking forward to see your reaction for the rest of the season! I actually really enjoy it! It has all the elements (see what I did there :P) of the original that I love, it's just a little bit more mature, which is great, I wouldn't want just a copy. :) Love your videos! And the editing is great!!
I think the thing that's stuck with me is the ice berg randomly blowing up and revealing aang. And the badger moles seeing through feelings is so dumbbb
@@ginger_jeezus There was no staff when they found Aang... oops. I hated the badger mole crap. They gained nothing changing that. 90% of it was good though. They better not screw up Toph >:(
@Zanroff changing the badger moles direct affects toph unfortunately. The badger moles taught toph how to see with earthbending. But they don't see with earthbending in this
Loved your reaction! You should definetly watch the society of the snow, it's a great movie and I'm sure you are going to have a lot of interesting things to say about that one
This adaptation of Avatar has its positives and negatives. There’s a lot to compliment, but the tweaking of the story I’m conflicted over. I liked some of the changes, but I thought others negatively affected character development and even the characters themselves. I can see why the original series creators left the project over creative differences.
@jtindel1 it felt weird how they made him super serious and mean and then had 5 seconds of og bumi riding the delivery system with aang. Felt like they just wanted to shove a bad joke in to be like "see its bumi!!"
I binged the whole season already, lol it's so much better than that movie thing that creeped out into the world. Can't wait for the rest of your reactions! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I finished the whole series and it was SOOOO GOOOOOOD. I mean like obviously I had some things I hated, mostly in terms of the script being kinda cringy and stilted at times but I think overall it was very enjoyable to watch. I love how much more mature it is bc the people who watched it as kids are now adults so also more mature
This is what a live action adaptation should be. Not a 1 to 1 recreation, but keeping to all the main story beats, even if there are minor changes because that's the nature of live action. I feel like this is a best case scenario for a cartoon to live action adaptation. And I will stand by the idea that anyone hating on the live action doesn't actually know what they want.
So far I have enjoyed it but the aang actor sounds like dewy from Malcom in the middle and his delivery is similar too so it throughs me a bit but I can see his acting improving if we get more
I hope you will be able to react to the rest of the episodes!! KATARA HAS A REALLY GREAT FIGHT SCENE LATER. A couple fights actually. I loooooooove Kataraaaaa!!
Watching the LA series was a rollercoaster for me because I have a hard time trying not to compare too much of the OG series. However, this show is doing fine when constricting 24 eps into 8 episodes, I am really not looking for a 1:1 adaptation from the OG because if that happened, I would just stick to the OG series. I know there will be a fraction of the ATLA community that would not like the adaptation but we can all agree that this series is so much better than the movie.
It was fun to watch the reaction of someone that didn't had a clear memory of the original. In my opinion, the writing is so much better in the original, and it seems quite a few agrees with me there. So by not refreshing your memory before watching it, you probably had a better chance to nerd out over it. :) I found it watchable, and I really liked a lot of the aesthetics, so I would probably give the season a 3/5 myself.
So, I kind of like that they made it so that Aang was fully planning to return.... but then got caught in a storm and ended up frozen for a hundred years. Rather than him running away.
Dear Angelina Kim, If you and your family ever adopted a *pet bunny rabbit* one day in the future, what would you guys name him/her? 🐰🐇✨️♥️💯 #Bunny #Rabbit
Yeah I don't care how much everyone tries to gaslight me, this show is really bad. Better than the movie? Yes, but that isn't really an accomplishment. So many unnecessary changes and characters that feel nothing like they did in the original show. Bumi and Roku were both completely ruined.
@@Jdubayou omggg original Bumi is one of my all time faves!! I love those characters who seem crazy on the outside but are actually very wise now he's just an angry, cynical old man.
I binged this fist season yesterday, and it stayed true to the original series, minus a few writer differances.for the most part, it was a live action movie for book one, water.
It looks good. It somehow feels like Avatar but it misses the little things that made the show great. I only watched the first episode and it didnt make me wanna watch the second. I didnt really get my hopes up because of the film but the Netflix Adaptation of One Piece was very good and felt like the Anime, so i thought Netflix knew how to transfer this Anime feeling into life action. This one not only did not create this atmosphere but it has a lot of plot changes, not for the better in my opinion. Especially the characters dont feel like they should. The actors are fine but the writing kinda only tries to be something its not. None of the characters feel like they will be growing and going on a journey, they just kinda are how they are. You had a whole hour to make them feel special and worthy to root for but i didnt get that feeling. Zuko shouldnt be about glory (???) or destiny (yet) but about rage, honor and going home. Isnt he driven by rage? Aang can fly somehow. GranGran feels evil to me in a way? Socca, Katara and Iroh seem fine but kinda empty inside. I really liked Gyatso but the whole friendship thing was weird. 3.6 roentgen. Not great not terrible. But as somebody who considers the cartoon to be one of the best series of all time, i am disappointed.
They ruin so many character moments. Aang doesnt run away, Katara isnt herself at all, they take away all the character flaws which made them interesting in the first place, like Sokkas sexism and how he overcomes it. Also the dialogue and acting r so bad lmao. Its so sad because the sets and the bending look so cool
And this is why the otaku should turn their brains off and enjoy things for what they are not what they want them to be. No adaptation is ever going to be perfect
i watched your video about only murder in the building and i said Angelina is such a cutie so sweet and Inteligent too that im going to see if there's any more of that show unfortunately you didn't or of Wednesday show either because i like mystery and adventure , but i decided to check this one out and i like the kid from the fire nation he's not necessarily bad he just wants to be accepted by his father it;s complex and i can understand that because me and my father were total opposites because he rode horses in the rodeo, and i was afraid of the horses and i liked woodworking projects making chairs etc. except for movies we did like same stuff
In episode one I went into with high hopes. By the end of I had episode two moderate hopes. By the end of episode three… my hopes were dashed. I think it was episode four or five that I just started calling it “The Kids With Magic Powers Show”. 😢 Let’s just stop trying to adapt animation into live action. It was animated(with 20ish episodes) in the first place. Oh and for the record, yeah there are a lot of cool elements in the show, it’s just not a great adaptation, or even retelling.
Technically, if the Airbender dies, there will bo longer airbenders, and noone knows if the Waterbender will be the next Avatar... It is a bit of Ouroborous cycle, will the snake eat itself, or be broken if bites a piece of its body..., and cant get to the next part...
So many butthurt saying its not accurate, i mean like yes there are some things that are not accurate but for what it is, they did a pretty good job, in terms of Live action its really good!
I'm trying to avoid comparing this to the original animated series. However, I can't say this is a good show. Despite having good visuals, the writing is sooooo baaaaaad (overly explanatory, repetitive). The acting has its ups and downs, but i blame the writing mostly. While the casting looks great, the dialogue delivery is so....flat? Lacking emotion?
I don’t really like how they made Katara just already a good bender. It took her a while to get the hang of her skills at first. In the series we see her journey of newbie bender to literal master. This she’s just… automatically good at bending? It just felt like they pushed “girl boss” too hard when Katara is already a universally loved character for how powerful she becomes. It just doesn’t make sense. 🤷♂️
Her journey, and Sokka's journey to mastery were incredibly rushed in the cartoon. Neither should have ever been able to reach the mastery that they had, and it never made sense for Katara to be Aang's master when his waterbending ability completely eclipsed her ability on his very first training session. At least here they are rushing her while also slowing him down via his reluctance to train so that when she finally becomes his teacher, it actually makes some kind of sense. They are also demonstrating in the live action that Sokka has a much stronger understanding of the fundamentals of martial arts from his own training back home than they did in the cartoon.
I really wanted to love this and I hate being that guy... But the show is just not doing it for me. Halfway through and its kinda meh. Nothing truly bad but I feel like the tone and writing just did not hit. Love the actors but seriously some lines are absolute trash.
@@MrNoLen5 what do you mean that is literally something that happened in the show. I personally loved the show i hope that if it happens in season 2 they take every criticism that people had with the first season and flip it around and improve on it so that everyone will love it.
It's a bit "Shakespeare in the park", but I like what they seem to be doing with sokka, if he's on a "become a geopolitical warrior" arc rather than the "learn to not be sexist", which really won't give him much to do compared to emphasizing plan-guy. Also, the firebending effects evoke some pretty grim flamethrower/napalm imagery from ww2 & Vietnam. It could get super dark if they deliberately dwell on it.
It came out on my birthday 🎉can you do the boys and gen v and more marvel and Disney and avatar and maybe total drama island too and A Clab WITH MJ without out spider man

@@gcmorganI mean theyre all valid points and I had the same criticisms basically exactly the same
They ruin so many character moments. Aang doesnt run away, Katara isnt herself at all, they take away all the character flaws which made them interesting in the first place, like Sokkas sexism and how he overcomes it. Also the dialogue and acting r so bad lmao. Its so sad because the sets and the bending look so cool
Lifes too short to hate so why spread it everywhere u go. Love what u can and move on
@@snowdrop1414 not spreading hate just disappointed lol
This!!!! It looks good but feels empty...
@@snowdrop1414giving your personal opnion on a show is hate??
And this is why the otaku should turn their brains off and enjoy things for what they are not what they want them to be. No adaptation is ever going to be perfect
I believe the word you're looking for is precedence
i watched your video about only murder in the building and i said Angelina is such a cutie so sweet and Inteligent too that im going to see if there's any more of that show unfortunately you didn't or of Wednesday show either because i like mystery and adventure , but i decided to check this one out and i like the kid from the fire nation he's not necessarily bad he just wants to be accepted by his father it;s complex and i can understand that because me and my father were total opposites because he rode horses in the rodeo, and i was afraid of the horses and i liked woodworking projects making chairs etc. except for movies we did like same stuff
In episode one I went into with high hopes.
By the end of I had episode two moderate hopes.
By the end of episode three… my hopes were dashed.
I think it was episode four or five that I just started calling it “The Kids With Magic Powers Show”. 😢
Let’s just stop trying to adapt animation into live action. It was animated(with 20ish episodes) in the first place.
Oh and for the record, yeah there are a lot of cool elements in the show, it’s just not a great adaptation, or even retelling.
Fire Nation went off! :D
I hope you enjoy it!!!
I love it. Better the One Piece live action. It's just One Piece fans are more loyal.
Technically, if the Airbender dies, there will bo longer airbenders, and noone knows if the Waterbender will be the next Avatar... It is a bit of Ouroborous cycle, will the snake eat itself, or be broken if bites a piece of its body..., and cant get to the next part...
Dont think you understood the anime...it wasnt just "bad because of bad" and "good because of good".
So many butthurt saying its not accurate, i mean like yes there are some things that are not accurate but for what it is, they did a pretty good job, in terms of Live action its really good!
I'm trying to avoid comparing this to the original animated series. However, I can't say this is a good show. Despite having good visuals, the writing is sooooo baaaaaad (overly explanatory, repetitive). The acting has its ups and downs, but i blame the writing mostly. While the casting looks great, the dialogue delivery is so....flat? Lacking emotion?
Sokka IS THE BEST!!!!!!
Zuko didn’t say honor once🥲 and gyatso went down by the hands of 3 rather than 50?
Sozin is easily amongst the strongest fire-benders to exist because genetics combined with top training. Gyatso wasn't killed by no-names this time.
Gyatso dropped more than 3 guys in that scene; it's a little more badass to me that only Sozin himself could defeat him
I’m a big fan
I don’t really like how they made Katara just already a good bender. It took her a while to get the hang of her skills at first. In the series we see her journey of newbie bender to literal master. This she’s just… automatically good at bending? It just felt like they pushed “girl boss” too hard when Katara is already a universally loved character for how powerful she becomes. It just doesn’t make sense. 🤷♂️
What ? She's awful in this episode, can barely make a bubble, she gradually learns through S1
Her journey, and Sokka's journey to mastery were incredibly rushed in the cartoon. Neither should have ever been able to reach the mastery that they had, and it never made sense for Katara to be Aang's master when his waterbending ability completely eclipsed her ability on his very first training session. At least here they are rushing her while also slowing him down via his reluctance to train so that when she finally becomes his teacher, it actually makes some kind of sense. They are also demonstrating in the live action that Sokka has a much stronger understanding of the fundamentals of martial arts from his own training back home than they did in the cartoon.
I really wanted to love this and I hate being that guy... But the show is just not doing it for me. Halfway through and its kinda meh. Nothing truly bad but I feel like the tone and writing just did not hit. Love the actors but seriously some lines are absolute trash.
it is so good
I didn't enjoy it. But I hope you did... It's better than the movie at least.
The bending and the action were good though so kudos to the action designers and vfx team.
It is so sad, I see why the creators left. Like Godzilla??? Really???
I'm 2 episodes in and loving it
@@MrNoLen5 what do you mean that is literally something that happened in the show. I personally loved the show i hope that if it happens in season 2 they take every criticism that people had with the first season and flip it around and improve on it so that everyone will love it.
My exact thoughts
Couldn't an Airbender pop somebody's lungs?
Angelina you will love my stop motion avatar star wars but you might dislike some changes it's for both fans of star wars and avatar
Subscribe if you haven’t already. Subscribe if you haven’t already.
Could be worse, its not falling of a precipice or anything...
i wacht it who's with me?? and i was in that movie
It's a bit "Shakespeare in the park", but I like what they seem to be doing with sokka, if he's on a "become a geopolitical warrior" arc rather than the "learn to not be sexist", which really won't give him much to do compared to emphasizing plan-guy.
Also, the firebending effects evoke some pretty grim flamethrower/napalm imagery from ww2 & Vietnam. It could get super dark if they deliberately dwell on it.
Hello Angie
