And adding on to this! You shouldn't also get to tell people who enjoyed something that they're automatically wrong either.
Like I said in the OG post (lmao) "Just be respectful to each other for fucks sake." and that's my final word on that.
No actually people ARE allowed to critique media ESPECIALLY when thereās source material
I think a lot of people who are upset with people for disliking ATLA Netflix are conflating critiquing media with āhatingā. Which is ?? A jump. A leap.
Iāve really only seen hateful things said about the actors (which IS bullshit and shouldnāt be tolerated) ā and Iām sure there are some people āhatingā but someone saying they didnāt like a show for a specific reason (costuming, writing, pacing, etc.) is NOT āhatingā.
people are 100000% allowed to say something did not live up to what they hoped for. They are allowed to say āI didnāt like x y zā. Their opinion isnāt invalid because they werenāt impressed or happy with the outcome of the show. Lots of people were very excited for this show and felt let down. Thatās their opinion and their experience.
Critiquing ā hating
And ya know? Vice versa. People are also allowed to like media you didnāt like.
Just be respectful to each other for fucks sake.

Iām not even someone who hates the show! I just think itās fine to be critical or dislike something and you shouldnāt be told youāre just wrong lmao
I also believe YOU should be wary of generalizations online as theyāre often incorrect.
Sure you canāt āpre blockā someone BUT you can block them when you donāt vibe w their posts/blog.
Just move on! Find a post you do agree with & people you DO agree with. Youāll have a way better time
I promise thereās billions of people making posts YOU like
And if there isnāt?? Then you should make those posts

Ngl the Netflix Avatar: The Last Airbender show was kind of a mixed bag of great and iffy kinda like a delicious food but itās missing something almost perfect, but still I loved the show so far.
What i didnt like:
*The gaang/ trio doing adventures alone by themselves
*The blended/ mixed episodes
*Pacing
*King Bumiās new personality, his issues, and how his true identity was revealed very early.
*Sokka and Sukiās fast chemistry, (well I kinda like their love story a little, it was sweet, but i think their rushing it).
*Also Sokka kissing both Suki and Yue kinda feels like hes cheating on Suki, they already had a good time and now Yue?
*The Secret tunnel scene which only happened on book 2, ofc I was happy the first minute they showed it but this was Aang and Kataraās moment, they changed that into love between families or siblings but itās about love between 2 couples Oma and Shu, wish they just did that on season 2.
*Aang didnāt talk to Hei bai or explain about the forest will grow back in time and just buried the seed.
*Kyoshi teaching Aang a lesson by traumatizing him with her merciless past, (thats not how you teach an innocent child).
*Zuko didnāt saved Zhao at the final episode, (in the original he saved him, because he still has that kindness and compassion in him just deeply hidden)
*Aang didnāt really learn how to waterbend, there was this scene were Aang and Katara were playing with water splashing each other I thought after that scene it was skipped to Aang finally progressing on his practice but he learned nothing at all, (well atleast he learned how to contact the spirit world with his past lives and loved ones). Probably at season 2 he masters it already but is skipped.
*About Kataraās necklace, Pakku didnt talk about that and the past.
*Gordon Cormier/Aang and Kiawentiioās/ Kataraās acting skills.
What I really liked:
*Cgi, visual effects, the animals 10/10
*Martial arts
*Costumes
*New lessons
*Some of the backstories including the introduction.
*How they interpreted Koh the face stealer.
*Aangās conversation with Zuko after getting captured by Zhao.
*Zukoās backstory and the 41st division.
*June and Iroh
*Why Ozai can be evil, āyall remember Evil is made not bornā he probably had a tough time when he was little, he just doesnt know what heās doing is not discipline its abuse. Just like what Iroh said itās in the fire nationās bloodline on sometimes being harsh and world dominating.
*Azulaās obsession with perfection and her dadās approval, I liked how hardworking she was until she reached her classic blue flame, she had to go through alot of pain too.
* Dallas Liuās acting skills as Zuko is amazing, I could literally feel his emotional state, anger and rage.
*Yueās spiritual abilities.
*Aang meeting Gyatso at the Spirit world broke me.
*Irohās backstory along with Zuko broke me.
Letās just say atleast itās better than that movie that never existed.
7/10 Imma say its perfectly balanced.
Also forgive me if my english is bad.
