They did Katara dirty… I agree that changes should be made in adaptation or else there’s no point in making a new show. However, the changes should support the original characters and story line. These didn’t. They made Katara meak and quiet, giving her big moments of power to male characters or happen by chance. For example, in the original show, Katara accidentally breaks open the iceberg when she became so angry at Sokka that her water bending went out of control and exploded, in the adaptation the canoe just bumps into it. Gran Gran was the real leader of the village, not Sokka, and when Aang went into his Avatar state it was Katara who talked him down. Showcasing her motherly compassion, confidence, and strength. It was a defining moment in the show and they stripped it away. It wouldn’t be that big of a deal if they had found another scene to show off those character traits and bond between the kids, but they don’t. They also took all the goofy silliness and happiness out of Aang. These kids are clearly good actors, but they were poorly directed and the script seemed to miss key points in the show. I will say the special FX and costumes are very good! For me, those matter so much less than the characters and storyline though. Love the music and wish it was louder!

I love this movie! Imaginative and full of beautiful music.

This is Fun! It's obviously the adult swim version of Scooby Doo. Kids should NOT watch this, but it was fun envisioning what these characters could have been like. I LOVE that they diversified the gang and tried them in deeper roles than their previously pigeon holed positions. There's enough Scooby Doo to go around for everyone. Why not have a show like this that pushes the boundaries?

I can't believe all of the negative reviews... I absolutely loved this film. I think this was one of the most interesting modern takes on a Jane Austen novel. It incorporated modern ideals and humor, like correcting they language men use when talking to women and exaggerating the behavior of characters to match how they make the main character feel (rather than how they actually act). It was charming, witty, incredibly romantic, and sad. The actors gave a great performance and the mood on the screen, set by cinematography, costume, set, etc. perfectly suited a Jane Austen novel.

Loved it. Fantastic adaptation and well played by the characters. One of the few movies that is faithful to the book!

Why is no one talking about the blatant sexism in this film? All of the women are sex objects and when its revealed that the main character (in Concrete Masterpiece) rapes Tilda Swinton, it's quietly glossed over. And the only time that two women speak to each other, is when the 50 year old journalist tell the younger girl to sleep with her 19 year old lover. The visuals are stunning, probably the best Wes Anderson has ever done, but the storyline was as jumpy as the dialogue. Half of the characters were poorly defined. Nothing meshed well in the movie. This could have been his greatest film if any attention had been given to the script.
