@@Akashi_Boi iirc I think they're referring to one interview where Kiawentiio (Katara) mentioned that they were toning down Sokka's sexism in the live action, but people took that one quote (out of a much longer interview) and blew it out of proportion. It became massive clickbait and the idea that the live action was completely removing Sokka being sexist spread everywhere - people took it as the complete truth and began bashing the live action as a result. I saw some people saying that Kiawentiio shouldn't have said anything, but like... it was such a small comment? People were saying she should've known how the internet would react but I think that's incredibly unfair to pin on such a young person. People made whole rant videos about the topic, but they didn't even bother to research the actual quote and interview.
@@wxychanyeah exactly, i too pointed to some negative comments, like they were overreacting and exaggerating that detail 🤦♂️ Did they even watch the og show?! Plus, it's unreleased. And 1:1 adaptation is just dumb, but so far the promos show a faithful version.
My heart goes out to this cast. It’s so sad that people forget that none of them are super experienced with acting, and have a lot of weight on their shoulders with this show. They all look so tense here. They are just kids. You can tell they are being more careful about what they say, after what happened last time.
Same I hate how tense the atmosphere feels in this interview. The hate is just a very loud minority of people so hopefully it doesn’t get to their heads. Majority of atla fans are supportive, by the time the show comes out everyone will forget and move on
@@ohitsjustme.890 kiawentiio (Katara) briefly mentioned in a previous interview that the writers toned down elements of Sokka’s sexism. Clickbait articles blew what she said out of proportion and big TH-camrs took this as an opportunity to rag on the actors. All over tiktok and twitter there are people complaining about avatar becoming “woke” or whatever
exactly! But I have faith in them. There are so many haters because their negative people. But any person with a right mind can see they can have faith with this cast.
3:55 Somehow Gordon was both fearless and nervous at the same time to say "genocide"? But I'm glad he went out and said it. I watched Avatar when I was even younger than Aang and didn't understand how deep it actually was. Only later in life I understood what happened to Aang's people is the most terrible thing someone could do because of the real-life genocide happening.
Kiawentiio is one of the most talented upcoming actresses out there and it’s sad that “fans” on twitter have already started misconstructing everything she says before she barely made it in the industry.
What is there to misconstrue? She said the original had a lot of ‘iffy’ moments in regard to one of the character tropes that teach ‘sexism = bad.’ There’s only one way to interpret that statement. No matter how right or wrong she is, you should not say anything like that about a critically acclaimed original as an actor in an adaptation of said original, especially since it definitely doesn’t have ‘iffy’ moments besides that one with Iroh in Season 1. She doesn’t deserve any hate for this, and I haven’t seen any personal attacks on her. However, that statement was just dumb, and it’s an honest mistake that she’ll learn from. You can’t always be right and have everything be perfect.
@@Brandedboyfilmz So your first thought is to insult me and then you say, 'I'll just let you grow to maturity'. Is this comment supposed to be ironic? How exactly did I hurt you so much? My initial comment was very much on the light side, just analyzing her quote, so such a reaction speaks a lot about you, Victor.
@@YouYubeEnjoyerNum1people are allowed to have opinions 😂 she could’ve just kept quiet but I wouldn’t call her opinions a “mistake” 😂 Unless I read ur statement wrong or something
With every flaw that this live action has, at the very least, they chose the right casting.. this cast is my favorite part about the show tbh, and the cgi, and effects.. it’s more of the writing that I have so many complaints about.. but this cast is such delight, and I think they did such a good job with their characters.. they’re great actors
My brother just passed, and the funeral is on the 23rd. I'm looking forward to watching the following week. Truthfully, atla is my safe space and has been helping me with moments of happiness, especially recently. 💚
I feel sad for you, I'm so sorry! In addition to being an avatar, we have a God to guide and guide us when we need help!!! God loves you and may he comfort your heart ❤❤❤
They seem way more calculated in their responses than before. A lot of hesitation before answers. I think showrunners told them their last interview didn’t go so well. A lot of negative reactions to how the story is changing.
Rightfully so, they're children and not established as actors. They may even misinterpret the truth. But you'd think the showrunner of the show would be wise enough to tell them that beforehand and also know that himself.
They are, but there is nothing wrong with being nervous to speak. After interview, critics can be mean sometimes, I know what I am talking about i am a future journalist after all. And I would never take something out of a context without thoroughly research, without an understanding what the heck going on. They are doing amazing. And we love them for that💖

Kiawentiio’s outfits are always on point! Her style 🤩!
Yh
Her stylist deserves a raise. She has been giving real it girl vibes recently
Yes she's slaying.
I knoww i love this outfit
Hair makeup and face card on point ❤
Gordon is so young but his interview skills blow me away! He’s so articulate!
They were all so great!
"Master the elements". I really love the chemistry between the cast 😊
Ian sounds just like sokka he’s literally perfect for him omg❤
Agree agree! Can't wait to see his jokes
@Leavemealone571 Huh I don't get it 😂. Explain to me haha
They’re literally all so perfect for their roles wow
They where so much shyer in this after all that incident in the previous interview... They are just kids man. We are putting so much pressure on them
What incident?
I agree. It's kind of sad to see that all the negative backlash just from that one clip could change their demeanor a lot :(

They’re so shy and sweet I love them 🥰
I read that Gordon Cormier was born after the original animated series ended
Kiawentiio too! She was 3 when the original series ended, but she was born after it aired.

Kiawentiio always looks beautiful in all the outfits I see her in. This outfit is in my top 5 favorite looks of her 🫶🏼🖤😍
The cast is like a big brother / sister group! Love how they get along so well on and offscreen (atleast it seems like it the chemistry is there!)❤
Yeah agreed! Although with Gordon and Kiawentiio it’s like older sister and little brother 😆. They all so cute and sweet. 🥰

I see chemistry between Kiawentio and Dallas🔥🌊
I think she has more chemistry with Ian 😭
Then you clearly don’t have little siblings because this is exactly how you tease them.

The way dallas said: "I loved it" to Kiawentiio 🥺

They definitely chose the right person for Aang. With all the cast actually!
Gordon was born to play aang (:
I love them ❤
They have amazing chemistry I love them so much

Is Gordon's voice just hoarse or is he transitioning into adolescence?
