Man I’m tired of live action remakes
i know Mike and Bryan are working on the Avatar live action series. Which bodes well for it considering the bar was set incredibly low in 2010. But the continuing idea that animation is a lesser way of telling a story that and that live action remakes are “how it was meant to be seen” just don’t sit well with me.
even with the most cutting-edge CGI, you’d be able to tell when a Fire Nation airship sorely stands out or when Appa has been superimposed in a shot. Every frame of the original show is so beautiful and animation made EVERYTHING feel like this world was completely realized. To date I’d argue it’s one of the most perfect examples of a well told and contained story. Everything felt fleshed out and lived in. What does live action bring to the table that was lacking 13 years ago? I dunno, man.
People forget the beauty of 2d animation
This puts into words exactly what I have been feeling about the live action version. I can’t understand what live action could bring to the story that animation did not. And honestly, I don’t think they can find a cast that is as good as the voice actors. ATLA didn’t just have an amazing story and animation, it had a talented voice cast that I’m just not sure could be replicated.
