Any thoughts about new avatar series? I hope the learned from their mistakes with korra.
>>
>>150195092
Avatar is like the Dragon Age franchise. the first product is good, but everything after that is terrible.
>>
>>150195092
NOT as bad as shyaladingdongs but at the same time 10 times less fun.
>>
I really liked the Fire Nation scenes

They definitely overcorrected some scenes.

>Whoa guys, can't have Sokka look like a massive male chauvinist, even though the cartoon obviously made him in the wrong and he learned his lesson with Suki
>so let's get rid of all that by having Suki be a thirsty leering pervert old man around Sokka
>>
>>150195146
origins was great? so was dragon age 2 (but not really)
>>
>>150195092
>I hope the learned from their mistakes with korra
You KNOW they will double down on these mistakes instead.
>>
>>150196363
2 was pretty bad and hated on release, its only now that we can look back on it and see it wasn't so terrible when you compare it to the following two games.
>>
>>150196418
luckily i never played inquisistion, i saw enough scenes from the media to not care about thinly veiled trannyshit guard
>>
>>150196355
The way it was handled in the animated show was pretty juvenile. I gets why they cut it. People overstate how important Sokka's chauvinism was.
>>
>>150195146
pretty sure the first one wasn't really good, either, if that's the case
>>
>>150196355
funny change
>>150196398
Bryke's not on this though
>>150196440
True
>>
>>150195092
>mistakes with korra.
Being too successful and filtering reddit?
>>
>>150196456
Korra was a flop relative to atla. Not that popularity matters, it could've been super successful and it would still suck ass.
>>
>>150196440
>The way it was handled in the animated show was pretty juvenile
THE CHARACTERS INVOLVED WERE LITERALLY JUVENILE
>>
>>150196469
Not what I mean. I meant the writing was juvenile, i.e. too on the nose. Haha girl dumb and have cooties, whoops I got beat up by a girl is kiddie shit writing. Which is fine for a kid's cartoon, but they were going for a more grounded tone since it's live action.
>>
>>150196482
sokka never acted like girls have cooties
>>
>>150196482
it's shit even by cartoon standards. You know it's garbage when it never gets touched again after being wrapped up in one episode.
>>
>>150196456
Korra was good after the first half of S1 but merging the spirit realm and severing the connection with past avatars was lame as fuck.

Actually that whole bit with Avatar Wan and the story about the first avatar was kind of fucking stupid. The series still had its high points though, especially with its villains.
>>
>>150196497
>You know it's garbage when it never gets touched again after being wrapped up in one episode.
but... it does?
>>
>>150196497
it comes up again in multiple episodes, what are you talking about
>>
>>150196508
>>150196514
Sokka learning that sexism is bad literally never happens again after kyoshi island. It's like that entirely because Suki was a one off character at the time
>>
>>150196519
???
anon are you suggesting the show should have flip-flopped constantly between sokka being sexist and learning not to be?
>>
>>150196531
No retard. I'm saying it gets resolved so quickly that it's a blip in the radar as far as sokka's character was concern. avatarfags act like it was something he struggled with the whole show.
>>
>one of the first pseudo-anime made by americans
>makes it ''vaguely asian''
>*20 years later*
>hands it to the asian-american crew (mostly koreans and chinese) to pretend it's authentic
that just doesn't work well, man
>>
>>150196540
Seriously... the next girl he meets, yue, had him acting like a complete gentleman. Katara's plots were far more damaged by comparison
>>
>>150196540
yes, but BECAUSE he learns sexism is bad he sees Pakku as a giant dick instead of a cool guy to admire, and BECAUSE he learns sexism is bad Suki is confused about why he treats her like a delicate weak person after they meet up again.
Sokka didn't struggle very long with sexism but it still informs his character and changes how he acts for the rest of the series.

I have literally never seen a single person act like this is true.
>>
>>150196560
I'll keep it simple for you; resolving a deeply learned behavior character flaw in one episode, isn't the sign that it was handled well or was important. even within the context of the show, everyone else in team avatar had flaws they had to work on for multiple seasons. Sokka himself had more important plot beats besides this.
>>150196579
I get that we're here on 4chan, but what rock have you been under? just google all discourse avatarfags had about netflix sokka, it's hard not to see how big of a stink people made about cutting this plot.
>>
>>150196597
hold on, are you pissbaby upset about how "big of a stink" there is about it, or are you pissbaby upset about WHY they're upset about it? Because it sounds like you're getting the two concepts confused. In fact, you haven't been communicating your points very well this entire time.
>>
>>150196560
You're making it out to be bigger than it was. Sokka didn't have much to do with Pakku. You don't need that sexism storyline to explain why Suki was confused. It just wasn't a big deal to his character, which is why it was cut.
>>
>>150196642
>You're making it out to be bigger than it was.
i'm really not.
>>
>>150195092
I like the Toph casting at least.
>>
>>150195092
They ruined Azula
>>
>>150195092
>I hope the learned from their mistakes with korra
You mean all of the franchise, not just Korra right? ATLA was a fluke. Let's not bullshit around.
>>
>>150195092
They did all three dirty but especially pic related.
>>
>>150196482
>Which is fine for a kid's cartoon
Anon its literally a kids cartoon. Especially season 1.

It was still a shoddily made game held together by gum and duct tape, they literally had little more than a year to make the thing and it shows. People like the *idea* of DA2, the reality of it is less than desirable.
>>
>>150196482
Still they basically took a character arc (a very simple one) and replaced it with nothing.
>>
>>150195092
Like most live action remakes of cartoons it's just the cartoon but lamer because they can't do the cool shit that was in the cartoons without paying out the ass and they're not going to do that. Just about every change they make is for the worse.
