Avatar: The Last Airbender - Live Action (Netflix/Feb. 22. 2024)

[Smashius Clay]

Everybody in Avatar is asian.

 

[Red Shield]

They aren't black, they're inuits aka eskimos.

folk really thought they were black

 

[winb83]

The creators of atla is in on it so it might be decent

I doubt this can work in live action. It'll be weird and judged against one of the greatest western animations ever made.

 

[Cuban Pete]

Sounds like a bad idea

Better be few to no white people in it

Theres no white people in the Avatar world, its basically Asia as a supercontinent with Earth Kingdom being China/Mongolia, Water Tribes being a mix of Inuit and Polynesian, Fire Nation as Japan and Air Nomads as a mix of Tibetan/Shaolin monks.

Lowkey thats why I liked its flavor compared to shyt like Lord of The Rings

 

[Kaypain]

It will be dope

 

[KravenMorehead™]

EEEEEEEEEEEEHH...

 

[Kaypain]

Basically doing everything opposite of M.Night and you'll be straight

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

Just give me a another animated season

Wouldn't mind them exploring Avatar Kyoshi...she had no problems catching bodies


Either way I'm IN

The original creators have quit this show. They said Netflix wouldn't allow the to create the show they wanted.

I'm out. This will likely be a dumpster fire.

It sounds like Netflix pulled a bait-and-switch on how much control them dudes were going to have on the show.

yeah.....

 

[Red Shield]

Yeah this is likely gonna suck

 

[Sensitive Christian Grey]

Bet you any money they wanted somebody to be white. Or that they didn’t wanna risk having someone Tibetan

Edit: I’ve just learned there’s no Netflix in China. I still think they didn’t wanna wade too much into Asian politics, especially regarding depicting China

I was thinking the same thing. They probably want to white wash the cast again

Nah. Netflix likes filling race quotas. It's more likely Aang would be white, Sokka and Katara black but Sokka's gay, with Toph and Zuko the only Asians.
