Oh they're doing the Bella Ramsey Ellie thing with Toph now?
2D wins again
>>154102560The thing where they cast an ugly actress who doesn't look anything like the character you like on purpose just so they have an excuse to call you a pedophile for criticizing such a decision? Yeah they're on their way ITT soon.
>>154102560>>154102634I don't understand. Toph is a chink. They hired a chink actress to look like a chink. How am I supposed to be mad?
>>154102560>>154102634If you watch the video she is petite and looks like Toph. Is this thread supposed to gauge interest as to whether critical stinker should make a video calling it "woke" or not?
>>154102560>cry when they use white actors in the M. Night movie>cry when they use racially accurate actorsWhat do you want?
>>154103217Except OP didnt say any of this you woke retard
>>154102560i instantly got nauseous seeing this.
>>154102560I feel that if this had been an adaptation from China or South Korea, probably the actresses they would choose would be much prettier or at best, even more accurate to what the character actually looks like And It's sad that even AI images showing what the characters would look like in real life are more accurate than official adaptations that could actually look for actresses who really look like they're straight out of the animated series into the real world.
>>154102560>the live action version of a character... doesn't look like my off-model sudaca porn??
>>154103993Honestly, they could have looked for actresses who REALLY LOOK like the character... But no, we're going to look for the actress who looks the least like it because "we do not want to promote false ideals of beauty" or some similar woke shit
Isn't she already an underage minor? What more do you pedos want?
>>154104255>who REALLY LOOK like the characterSo, no one who looks Asian except maybe whatever Korean plastic surgery victims you jerk off to
>>154103749>even AI images showing what the characters would look like in real life are more accurate than official adaptationsOh are we going by THAT playbook you child
>>154103512Also, seeing myself in the mirrorI'm trans btw
>>154102560stfu you fucking faggot
>>154102560 Bad angle on that picture, and even then it's not as if she was a Gargoyle or something. She does look a lot more like Toph in this video :https://www.tiktok.com/@avatarnetflix/video/7582252120619912461?lang=en But getting an actress that looks like Toph; has a career and therefore experience to pull this off well; like the character, and is on the perfect age range seems to have gotten this girl, and I think they did well.
>>154104292I'm not saying I have to look for super models full of surgeries and such, but at least they could have given it a try to search a actress more or less similar I mean, an actress who looks like her enough and you can say "hey, the actress really looks like the character" and that's it
>>154104292She's kinda moonfaced, but that can't be helped with these casting directors. Her performance seems okay from the bits they showed. Honestly, my biggest problem is that they half-assed the bangs. Toph's bangs go way down over her eyes. You know, because she's blind and doesn't give a fuck.
>>154104622NTA but in what way does she NOT look like toph? and be specific, dont pull the retarded "she doesn't look like the cartoon" cope.
>>154104651Whoops, meant to reply to OP >>154102560
>>154104306Let's see, we're not going to grab any random AI images either, as I know there are some where they really did a good job doing a flesh and blood version of the character
>>154104654nta, but the OP shot is kind of an unflattering angle that makes her cheekbones look huge and her lips look overdone, so I can't blame someone for having a bad initial reaction. Tone down the makeup on the lips and lengthen her bangs and she'd be closer to passable. If you want something very specific, her nose is very flat. In the show, Toph actually has a bit more of a nose than Katara if you compare side profiles.
>>154104956>but the OP shot is kind of an unflattering angle that makes her cheekbones look huge and her lips look overdone, so I can't blame someone for having a bad initial reaction.fair> her nose is very flat.>>154104486>>154104651I need to see more shots of cartoon tough to compare. the bangs being too short is fair albeit a nitpick
>>154103993>>154104291see>>154102634
>>154104956either way it's far cry from what disingenuous faggots like >>154102560>>154102634>>154105005are trying to say
>>154102560She looks great!
>>154105002
>>154102560Another pedo thread disguise as an anti woke thread
>>154105040
>>154105040>>154105076>Nosea product of the artstyle at the time where the designs were more westernized, something they've gone back on in the new aang movie. This certainly remotely comparable to the ellie casting TLOULA
The casting and styling on this show has been mediocre to terrible from the start, so I don't know what anyone was expecting.
>>154105151*certainly isnt
>>154105162Mai was always going to be shit IRL, bad example. no way were they ever going to find a horseface who looks the part of the cartoon, and her hair looked like shit in the cartoon KEK
>>154105151>a product of the artstyle at the time where the designs were more westernized, something they've gone back on in the new aang movie. I mean, kinda moving the goalposts there, but I'll take the underlying concession that it indeed doesn't resemble how she's depicted in the original show.
>>154102560>Adult plays teenager >Cast for neoteny looks of being an odd inbred Babyface at 25 >Lizard brain knows they're an adult and looks nothing like the character would as an adult >Complain >Antichud troonxisters complain about the complaining, defend casting choice of bogged as fuck person who has childlike features but you're the pedophiles because... Because ok?! Every time. The wig is shit and looks it's floating an inch too high on their head, which in general suggests this is a cheap cash grab production because it is. Her eyes being more than 1 eye length apart from each other is just like an actual birth defect and it's racis to suggest it's because she's Asian. This will do terribly in korea, japan, and china due to their aesthetic sense and dartboard racial animosities towards each other. They utterly refuse to understand the international audience.
>>154105228well yeah, i do concede that. it's two very specific things which is a farcy from being completely unrecognizable as toph like the OP was implying.
>>154105204So the logic here is that if they went for total accuracy, she'd be ugly anyway, so they might as well make her ugly in a totally different way? Okay, fine, but hear me out on this one: if you're gonna trash the original design, why not cast someone decent looking instead?
>>154105251Ok chud
>>154103141The entire thread is just baffling. Who the hell cares about the LA avatar remake after the disaster that was the first season? Is this just yet another astroturf campaign?
>>154105314>if you're gonna trash the original design, why not cast someone decent looking instead?Fair point there. this would have been the opportunity to make Mai tolerable to look at it at least.
>>154103749>And It's sad that even AI images showing what the characters would look like in real life are more accurate than official adaptations that could actually look for actresses who really look like they're straight out of the animated series into the real world.You might just be the dumbest motherfucker alive.
>>154105364>>154105251both of "you" can go back /pol/
>>154103217I want designer babies creating for the purpose making accurate LA adaptations. After filming is over they are to be released into the world with no idea on what they should with their lives
>>154105391>Both sides are badCentrists gonna center
>>154102560Interviews say season 2 will be 8 episodes, each episode 40 minutes long. Compared to the 24 episodes, 20-min each of the original, it's safe to say plotbeats will get cut. I can see the library not making it into in, since their focus in on Ba Sing Se
>>154105544>Both grifting faggots are badUnironically yes, find a rope.
>>154105584the library is in the trailer...
>>154102560Why do they cast ugly Asian-Americans, they can just hire a bunch of k-pop actresses Like nobody wants to see some flat faced mixed-race Amerimutts
>>154104486she is cute, CUTE!
>>154105162>>154105204Let's see, I don't think it was difficult to find a thin Asian actress with a half-elongated face, if there are almost accurate Mai cosplays, they could easily find the right actress
>>154105364>Can't even deboonk, just get mad Bella Ramsay is the same thing, you people have some legitimately weird obsession with neoteny whenever a woman has to be depected under the age of 43.
>>154105605>Posting anonymously on the internet is griftingLmao
>>154105768>Pedo obsessed over child characters calling other people obsessed
>>154105069Hey dork, you know Toph is not real right?
>>154102560First season was terrible and pointless. The casting is awful. This show has no reason to exist. Don't force yourself to watch this drivel out of obligation.
>>154105701Then name one actress then that speaks perfect English and looks like Mai
>>154105819>complain about the complaining, defend casting choice of bogged as fuck person who has childlike features but you're the pedophiles because... Because ok?! Any Kdrama extra would have been a better choice. There is an entire world of actresses you're too threatened by. This evil stepmother mindset towards womens depictions in media is pretty toxic buddy.
>>154105819>angry tranny noises
>>154104651>She's kinda moonfacedThis is a problem with chinks howStop looking at bingbing dingdong and look at actual citizens
>>154105162Ok that was fucked up
>>154105823>It's a fictional character depicting a child so it's totally ok to be sexually attracted to her What an argument anon, I wonder if you would ever say that in real life
>>154105907Cope
>>154105251To me this Toph looks line a Japanese boy. Which I think she shouldn't since the Earth Nation were the Chinese. At least get someone that doesn't look like a boy.
>>154105768>Bella Ramsay is the same thing, you people have some legitimately weird obsession with neoteny whenever a woman has to be depected under the age of 43.She is a fine voice actorWho should never appear on camera outside horror movies
>>154105881It's no surprise that people who accuse trans people of being pedos are pedos themselves.
>>154105955Nope
>>154105914Keep complaining about how they didn't cast your ideal Toph's actress pedofreak
>>154105914so no then
>Lmao
>>154105907Its a grown woman depicting a cartoon character you dork. She doesnt suddenly stop being an adult just because you're incapable of separating reality from fiction
>>154105955>I-I'm not the groomer, you are!Ok troon. Nice projection
>>154103993ON-MODEL sudace porn, thank you very much
>>154105162Completely out of character to not have Azula outright bury Mai about her weight.
>>154102634sure, not my problemsuck it up pedo
>>154102560she looks like she wants to be served a margarita
>>154105881>>154106131>trannies out of nowhereGo back to /pol/.
>>154102560Its not like there are any humans with eyes double the size of normal eyes plus a moonface girl irl wouldn't look all cutesy like toph does in the cartoon
>>154105162What the fuck, did the actress play Azula AND Mai at the same time?
>>154106424You just know if they went for that, then the "they're making toph girly" crowd would start bitching
>>154106118>Immediately backtracking and changing the subject Again why do you care so much about how a 12 years old character looks in real life?
>>154105870>Childlike features Unholy pedophile
>>154106651>Demands Neoteny in actresses but everyone else is clearly obsessed with this You people are weird and everyone is noticing.
Since we are talking about the Netflix show, have you guys seen this? The real reason Bryke left the show is because they wanted to make a bunch of changes to the story and Netflix didn't let them. >Princess Yue would be murdered by an arrow during the Battle of the Northern Water Tribe.>Uncle Iroh would secretly be working for Firelord Ozai and betray Prince Zuko.>Firelord Ozai would die by the end of Season 1.https://knightedgemedia.com/2026/01/massive-changes-netflixs-avatar-the-last-airbender-almost-had-under-mike-dimartino-bryan-konietzko/
>>154106815You literally admitted that you know K-drama actresses who you think are attractive enough to play the role of Toph, a 12 year old girl.You are a pedo anon.
>>154106840I didn't watch it but I guess Netflix saved the show from fan backlash.
>>154106932>Personal supposition that a shitty live action show must use actors who have retained out of place young features (neoteny) because... Because ok?! At the expense of everything else in casting >Everyone else is a hekkin pedo thoughThis is unironically a complex in people like you.
>>154102560Gives me Rose from Last Jedi vibes
>>154107055Whatever you say pedo
>look chuddie it's literally impossible to find a non beat asian who reflects the character and doesn't look like a down syndrome child in a live action retelling where everyone is over 20. There is a whole Instagrams worth of English speaking fitness influencers who like weebshit. You tell me the actress they chose can pull off being the blind bandit in the ring and also rock a cheongsam when oppressed by tradition? This shit is farcical
>>154106335NEVER take a Beifong girl to a Fire Nation restaurant
>>154106609Once again, the character is not real you dork
>>154106840they really still think that their shitty original idea for the series was gonna be something people liked
>>154106840The more I learn, the more I believe mike and Bryan had less and less to do with ATLA's success beyond it's inception
>>154104486Yeah she really doesn't seem that bad. Even cute. I don't really see any issue looks wise right now. All depends on her delivery and how she captures Toph's attitude.
>>154106840>Watching the LA>suddenly, evil IrohWould have been worth it just for the reactions alone. Imagine if Evil Iroh ended up being the final boss.
