Avatar: The Last Airbender (2005 & 2024) and Legend Of Korra are my Favorite TV Show of all time and yet The Last Airbender os Horrible. Thankfully Legend of Korra and 2024 Avatar Fixed Avatar. But this tried to ruin a My Favorite show with this Horrible Movie Adaptation
Avatar Qualities (Pros):
The Soundtrack is Good
Shaun Toub and Seychelle Gabriel dose Decent Performances as Iroh and Yue
Why it's Not The Avatar (Cons):
The film Extremely Unfaithful to the Show. Such as it taking out scenes from Book 1 of the show. Tries to compare 20 episodes into 103 minutes. Race changes on almost every character. Ruining the lore. Appa and Momo only being the animals and momos name never mentioned. Appas now had Chicken Feet which is disturbing. Taking out many characters such as Bumi, Suki, etc. Changing the costume designs of the characters. The bending is now Awfully done
Horrible Acting. With it being Lifeless and Hammy
Some Awful Scenes and sequences such as the Pebble Dance and Earthbenders Revolt Scene Painfully Awful Dialouge such as "YOUR LYING"
Terrible and rushed pacing Terrible Writing and Plot that tries to compare 20 episodes into a 103 Minute Movie causing Numerous Plot Holes
The Characters were Horribly Flanterized. Aang is now a whiny Brat. Sokka is boring and not Funny like in the show. Katara, Zuko and everyone else is Poorly-Written.
Awful Cenimatography that a $150 Million Movie wouldn't even have
The Choreography is Awful unlike the show
The Character names are Mispronounced
The Visuals and CGI are Lackluster that don't fit for $150 Million
The film feels like a Lower Budget Movie Than $150 Million Movie, more like $20-50 Million
Week Direction By M. Night Shyamalan
Rating: 2/10
I hope the 2025 Movie will be better and as good as the shows
