My Favorite TV Shows – Avatar: The Last Airbender


15 Aug

We just finished watching Avatar: the Last Airbender, the cartoon series. I am excited that Nickelodeon has green lit another Avatar series. The writing and characters have all been consistently better than good.

My favorite thing about the series has been the character development. We have seen all of the main characters change and grow- not just the bad guy who becomes a good guy, but the good guys struggle with what it means to be good, too. The final battle between Aang and the Phoenix King stayed true to that theme and ended the series on a perfect note.

The Last Airbender (movie)

I liked The Last Airbender. Yes, there were problems, but there are going to be problems when fitting eight hours of material into under two hours. I would have been happier if they had made the movie fifteen minutes longer, or even cut a few minutes out from the final battle, in order to give a little more time to the friendship that develops between Ang, Katara, and Sokka, but it still worked.

The narration detracted from the movie, especially since they were showing us the same things that were being said.

However, Sokka and Uncle Ihro were absolute highlights.
