not every change that netflix made to the atla remake was a bad one, hell, some of them made a lot of sense. but the one that bothers me the most was how they handled sokka and hakoda's relationship. while it's absolutely true that sokka looked up to his dad and felt like he'd never measure up to his standards as a warrior and a leader, but having him overhear hakoda saying the latter about him to bato was just... wrong. there is NO chance that the dilf we know and love would ever disparage his son like that, especially considering how guilty he felt about leaving sokka and katara to join the war. i imagine that they did this as a replacement to sokka's lost sexism arc, further proving that trying to make characters less "problematic" than their original versions typically hurts the story's progression rather than letting it flow naturally.

#natla is a 7/10 but this was not it #atla #avatar the last airbender #atla netflix #sokka #hakoda

Alright now this pissed me off

What do you MEAN you're going to remove one of the most important aspects of Sokka's character arc in the first season? What do you MEAN you're going to remove Sokka unlearning misogyny, accepting change and embracing his role as a fighter and protector of the Avatar in order to end the war? What do you MEAN???

#they're also going to apparently show the rise of the fire nation as well as the airnomad genocide #which; again; i'm conflicted on #atla #netflix atla #avatar the last airbender #avatar #sokka #atla live action #atla netflix #netflix

Netflix, I don’t know how to tell you this but a woman doesn’t have to be self taught to be a strong female character. It’s ok to let her know her limitation and ask for help. It’s ok to let her get angry, it’s ok to let her be jealous, it’s ok to let your female character have flaws and WORK on them. Your female character doesn’t have to become a master on her own to be memorable, it just makes her accomplishment feel unearned.

#katara was so determined and strong willed #she took no shit from anyone #she was freaking amazing #but she had to train to become the best waterbender in the world #the moves didn’t just come to her in her sleep #and she was co complex #she got angry and jealous but she was still caring and gentle #this katara just felt so one dimensional #atla #avatar: the last airbender #avatar #avatar the last airbender #natla #Netflix #Netflix atla #atla Netflix

I need names of whoever is at fault for Sokka not putting on kyoshi warrior makeup and the dress in the live action and I need them now.

Is the new avatar live action a perfect remake

No

Does it have a perfect scene of a random lady hitting zuko with a brush to stop him from trying to attack aang that wasn’t in the original

Yea and it was great

Katara 🌊!!!

This urge to draw her probally came from the new atla live action. Idk if it's going to be good becuse my expectations are lowering with every new information we get. And i hate the whole art direction of the series. And don't even get me started on the costumes.

But putting that aside, ever since i watched atla 2 years ago, i couldn't wait to draw all the characters in digital medium ( : And here I am, finnaly doing so.

The patterns, tattos and jewerly are inspired by inuit coulture ( i know its not really accurate).

Anyway, I hope you like this piece

OH AND ANOTHER THING ABOUT THE ATLA REBOOT

the sexism thing??? we all know it's fucking stupid and purely performative to take out sokka's feminism arc, but can we talk about the fact that He Is Still Sexist????? he still thinks that what he does (running the village's defenses, which they've never needed) is vastly more important than what she does (wash the clothes, cook, etc). and yk what?? the live action reboot AGREES with him. it doesn't show or even mention katara doing any work around the village. all we see katara doing is practice waterbending - the only interesting thing that original episode 1 sokka seems to think katara ever does.

the live action show depicts sokka "doing all the work", fulfilling his traditionally masculine role of warrior/protector, and COMPLETELY DISMISSES whatever "women's work" katara does, as if she does nothing. seems pretty clear to me that the showrunners would love to absolve themselves of sexism by not talking about sexism, while in actuality being pretty sexist themselves

and don't even get me started on sokka not wearing the dress/makeup of the kyoshi warriors' uniform

Something Something Avatar The Last Airbender was fundamentally about showing the horrible long-lasting effects of both war and violence in a grand sense (the way people suffer under fire nation occupation including the air nomad genocide and the state of the southern water tribe) but also a personal sense (zukos entire arch) and the show goes to great lengths to avoid glorifying war, often specifically choosing only depict the aftermath of terrible violence while not graphically depicting the violence itself.

And I think it's a profound misunderstanding, maybe even an insult to the source text to continually depict gratuitous death and violence as a focal point of the live action.

#i can provide example of this if need be #the depiction of the air nomads being invaded by the fighting #kataras mothers body #zuko and ozais agni kai #theres probably more #but thats what ive gathered from cultral osmosis alone #atla #atla live action #atla netflix #avatar #avatar the last airbender #live action avatar #prince zuko #atla zuko #zuko #avatar aang #aang #atla aang #air nomads #katara #katara atla

Ok now we're just taking the piss right? Right?

Once again this sort of thinking is removing a fundamental character arc that makes this story what it is. A big part of Aang's journey, especially in season 1, but tbh it does return in later seasons too, is accepting that he is the Avatar, and that he's the only one who can end this war. During the whole first season he is in complete denial about who he is and what he's supposed to do, which is why in most of this season there's no sense of urgency, and then once Aang gets faced with a very real, very close deadline he panics. This makes it even more brutal when in season 3, after accepting this responsibility, he gets faced with the reality of failure. He runs away again, this time not because he doesn't want responsibility, but because he knows how heavy his responsibility is and he doesn't want to burden anyone else with it. Removing the first aspect, aka running away and denying responsibility, it in turn also removes the heavy emotion from his later arc.

It keeps surprising me that people who claim to be such fans of the original seem to completely miss the point of most of this story? Like how could you look at Sokka learning about women's rights, Aang learning to accept responsibility, and Katara's motherly warmth which happened because how young she was when she had to step into a motherly role, and think "well we should remove that." You're taking out all of character development and going purely off of plot (which isn't gonna be nearly as good without the character development!)

Atla is probably one of the most analyzed and picked apart story, has one of the most long running loyal fanbases, people are STILL making thinkpieces about this show, and you manage to still misunderstand so much???

#i'm telling you media literacy is DEAD #like this fanbase's analysis comes close to that of the lord of the rings fandom #and yet you seem to have completely ignored it #wild #atla #atla netflix #netflix atla #netflix #atla live action #avatar the last airbender #avatar
