Everything since the mixed finale of TLA has proven how that series was lightning in a bottle. Every season of Korra is retarded, every Aang comic is retarded, the live action show was retarded, and disabled homeless indian child avatar is retarded.
I thought the first season of Korra was actually pretty good, mostly because I thought the whole "Benders vs. Non-Benders" made for an interesting conflict, Amon was a good villain with some interesting powers (since he could steal peoples Bending), and even more so because of the changing nature of the world with the machines that were being invented.
Of course, that all went out the window after the first season.
Literally at the moment Amon did, too.
"I can air bend? I can air bend!"
/does nothing but more punches like every other time she's used any other element because she has zero creativity
How anyone was to believe that moment was her at her most "spiritual" is retarded.
The first season is good cause they didn't expect to get anymore seasons and wrote it to stand on its own.
Then it got retarded
Every comic? Even "The Search," the one where they looked for Zuko's mother?
They definitely got woke after that, yes, I agree.
And even the original cartoon is a children's cartoon, about as sophisticated as Teen Titans. People still obsessing over it into their 30s is fucking pathetic. It does not stand up if you ever mentally grew into your teens, let alone adulthood.
It actually does hold up. Storytelling is based on fundamental structure translated into expression to your primary audience (in this case, kids and teenagers) and the structure of ATLA is excellent.
Avatar The Last Airbender is one of the best kids shows out there. Not familiar with Teen Titans but I suspect it pales in comparison.
Everyone getting defensive about it has to keep qualifying it with "kids show." Yeah, that's my point. You're not a kid, and these are not adults appreciating something for the value it brings to children. These are adults lining up for the cultural equivalent of a Happy Meal, and I'm gonna judge that no matter how well-made the toy is.
The Hobbit is a children's book.
Game of Thrones seasons 7-8 is made for adults and still the equivalent of a Happy Meal.
