Ehhhh… It’s high budget for sure, but I’m just not convinced live action avatar will ever be good. They could’ve remastered the cartoon with a fraction of the budget.

    They mostly have the look down. The only one that looks out of place is King Bumi, as he definitely just looks like a young guy in old man makeup. But we didn’t get to see much.

    The other worry is the acting and storytelling. Some of the line delivery seems a bit wooden, and it’s tough to see if it will come close to the humor and heart of the original.

    Pretty clear they are killing The Great Divide, Bato of the Water Tribe (except for June), and combining The Northern Air Temple somehow into Omashu. They also seem to be adding the air nomad genocide and moving The Cave of Two Lovers to season 1. It also looks like they are going to try and flesh out Zuko’s relationship with Azula and Ozai more

    At least they know how to say Aang and the bending doesn’t look stupid.
