The adults that complain about the lack of romantic chemistry between them in the live action film, might as well be predators.

Very sloppy writing

I mean to be fair, the amount of romantic interaction in the cartoon literally amounted to 2 forced kisses and then one suddenly real one.

Plus they changed Sokka’s character completely

There is no passion There is no vision There is no aggression There is no mindset with this project

I mean, it's live action, did u expected anything good?

Great video bro!!

This is the 3rd member of the Gaang I've heard is basically the opposite of their true character. That's just wrong

Is that the only thing pretty sure the whole things trash in comparison to the original or in general

I knew the live action was going to be crap when I found out the original creators left because of creative differences

The live action just feels hollow and not enthusiastic

Would the Fire Nation have accepted a Water Tribe queen?

Zukorra

The cartoon will always be the superior version!

I always felt Avatar was Zukos story. It really just featured the gaang

Katara obviously chose Aang and they later got married & had 3 kids which they named Bumi, Kya, & Tenzin. End of story. Get over it you whiners.

Katara is roadkill for zuko. He needs a little toxicity and trash talk. For lack of a better phrase , edge. I honestly their character ares kinda end the path of their relationship. Hes not wounded anymore and shes not conflicted over her own anger. I thought those relationship dynamics were good when i was younger but its not going to keep the balance in the relationship

Aang was the avatar so he deserves the girl he always had a crush on. Zutara was toxic katara threatening zuko give me one reason that you might hurt aang and you won't have to worry about your destiny ends right then and there permanently. Plus it wouldn't make sense kataang was going to be end game from the start all the kisses she gave aang on the cheek. Plus she was the only one who could calm aang down when he's at his worst. He entered the avatar state when katara in trouble. He even gave up his chakra for katara once she was in trouble and went straight to katara. Zutara wouldn't make sense because there wasn't even a built up for zutara no romance it was only the cave scene and then it was gone zuko betrayed and went to his sister side. Aang and toph heck no toph wasn't even a attractive to attract aang plus he knew katara longer than toph. There was always a built up with aang and katara. And more chemistry. You just like zuko and katara because there looks oh they have chemistry because they both lost their mom's. They barely interact the only time they interact is when zuko trying to capture aang. And season 3 he joined the group katara hates his guts so they go on a trip to find katara mom killer. And boom katara forgives zuko. But katara never even showed romance towards zuko where was it oh there wasn't any. That's why it wouldn't make sense. Aang is the hero he's the avatar he already chosen his girl when he first met her love at first sight katara was confused about her feelings for aang but realized she really cares about aang and she always has.

There are some nice parallels to draw between the characters sure, but there's nothing else to go on.

Blud katara xaang is canon, please read and look at it caredully at the show, aangbrings out the best of katara always encouraging her and stuff and katara even said herself she likes aang!, at the finale they are now 16 and 14 they kiss , and then have a famliy later on, YE SIK AANG ISYOUNGER THEN KATARA BUT AANG , AND U M8GHT SAY" KATARA IS MORE MATURE THEN AANG" bro......is not that hes immature, is because thats his personality, 2nd , oatara said herself she liked aang for who he is, and aang is growing more mature and m9re aware in the recent episodes , like look at the final episodes of book 3 , hes much more mature and aware , so much so that he became more mature then katara, u cna gap all u wnat about how zutara was better then kataang but katang wil always stay CANON 3rd, zuko brings the worse out of katara, 1 time zuko tried encouraging katara to commit genocide from what i HEARD , and u might sya that zuko helps katara more then aang, well ye sthats true but zuko was mwnt to help katara,is so that zuko cna make up for that he killed katara's mother , overall aang is better[no offense]

I honestly don't realize see myself with Katara, to be honest.

I mean I honestly don’t mind that katara ended up with aang but at the same time I feel like they act more like siblings while Zuko and katara truly understand each other because they both were lost and depressed! Zuko and katara both lost their mom in a different way and I feel like they would definitely support each other through the good and the bad while aang is just like oh okay let’s have peace now and plus I can’t stand Mai because she treats Zuko like shit 💩

So interesting fact, Zutara was supposed to be cannon, and I love that I know this, however, Nickelodeon or whoever at the time couldn't see the prince of the Fire Nation falling in love with a peasant from the Water Tribe. If you think about it that's completely ridiculous because if we take the Northern Water Tribe and use it as a parallel, Sokka and Katara, The chief's children, would be considered royalty like Yue, except the Southern Water Tribe has less resources then the North because the Fire Nation took all the waterbenders except for Katara.

Guys I know aang didn't seem like he did lot for kattara but for aang to save her he was willing to forget her completely

I love thinking about what might have happened if Zuko was healed in the cave under Ba Sing Se. I think Katara would have felt personally responsible for showing Zuko how to be better because they both lost their mothers to the fire nation. I think if that had happened then Zutara would have been cannon.

Netflix did not ruin sokka bro stop it💀

At least they casted him right. He was hot

Why doesn't Jet have the bit of straw in his mouth??? I'm mad

Look how they massacred my boy... they stole his rizz..

They literally destroyed him. Like you said they put some of the lines from the animated series so that everyone would think that they watched the show but the lines were nonsense almost every time they used it besides a few examples. And one of the biggest reasons I didn't like and understand the Netflix adaptation is that they called Katara a Waterbending Master. Still, she has never got a lesson even the tiniest lesson from Pakku and suddenly she is a Master.

atleast it wasn’t as bad as the last air bender movie

sokka was over all a 8/10

Depth, that's indeed what is lacking. Well put The new Sokka speaks shallow and awkward dialoge. The animated Sokka was the more goofy type of guy with an actual journey to maturity I don't think the adaption is failed, but this definitely didn't do good.

The live action was quite uncomfortable to watch especially with Sokka and his romantic interests.

very well put!!

Sometimes being different isn’t always a good thing

I agree

yap yap kataang better

funny how majority of the kataang supporters here in the comments are men...mh i wonder why...

I will always be mad about this bc it was all for the sake of romance, WHICH WAS NEVER ONE OF THE MAIN THEMES OF THE SHOW. Kataang does such adisservice to both characters: Aang needed to be seen as the perfect nice guy who was never wrong, so he never got to grow and mature while Katara basically gets stripped of her agancy and distinctive traits. And since they weren't satisfied enough, they even butchered Zuko in the process, making him act out of character in some scenes of book 3 just to make him look bad so people would stop shipping him with Katara. In my opinion, permanent couples in a show in which the majority of the cast are teenagers were not needed at all. What was really important was their friendship and the found family they created.

5:22 that's called Bromance, I'd like to add here Zuko&Aang as well 😊

How can you say this kataang Is better than zutara

I never bought Katang to be honest. Zutara had way more depth and was interesting. I also shipped Tokka even if it wouldn't have worked much in the show's base timeline but more as a post story thing.

Having rewatched the whole series once again recently, and paying close atention to this particular topic, i withhold my position that Zutara doesn't make ANY sense. Let me explain: While i'm not a "Kataanger", the way the show ended didn't rub me in the wrong way in the slightest. I do get the counter points to the existence of Kataang, but saying Katara should've ended up with Zuko, considering the script AS IS, doesn't hold water. See, usually, "Zutara" people address this topic from a "wow, they would match each other really well, given their personalities and decisions they tend to make" standpoint, but i find this way of approaching things problematic, to say the least. I mean, if you're gonna go down this path, then you can extend this to each and every character in the show, because it's just about possibilities, and the free will of the creators, of course. Heck, i've even seen someone make a strong case for Aang and Mai ending up together. People that approach the topic with this mindset, always forget about one, very obvious thing: build up, or at least some sign in the story that even slightly hints something more happening between a potential couple. They stay in the realm of possibilities, listing all the characteristics they think that match between the two, and forget that NEVER ONCE in the whole series, there's any, none, zero, nada, build up or hint between Katara and Zuko. If you doubt what i'm saying, just go watch the show, you'll find nothing. What might, and probably will happen, is your emotions taking over, and you start shipping Zutara all over again, which will make you forget to pay attention to the absolutely nothing that's happening between the two of them. I find Kataang to be the extreme opposite of this situation; Although unilateral on Aang's side for the most part, the hints between Aang and Katara do exist since the very first episode. It might not please many, but the build up of Kataang exists, it's undeniable. Does it have lots of flaws? Yes. Do they match each other? Debatable. But there's a build up. One more time, i say: If you're just going down the path of possibilities, it's okay to just come up with anything you think makes more sense than what actually happened in the series, but if you watched the whole show AS IS, and came to the conclusion that Katara should've just ended up with Zuko, you're trippin.

Putting these two together is a cheap way of rectifying the injustice that the writers gave us with the poor character building between aang and katara romantically, zutara would have destroyed mei's character arc, destroyed aangs character arc, and created an unsatisfying depressing ending for aang, the only thing that it could potentially rectify is kataras emotional development but that would be fixed way easier if katara would have just gotten an episode where we explored her emotional state.

Nope

Got two minutes in and stopped because I can hear every bit of saliva in his mouth move. Quit chewing on the mic dude

As someone who grew up with Avatar on Tv I had always enjoyed Kataang and never thought much on other ships of the show outside of Sukka (Sokka x Suki) until later on -with some help -and rewatching in my teeen-adult years I started to see how developed Zutara really was and only to fall for it more and more. I never actually hated any ship around the Avatar team but I do agree that I never have seen the appeal of Maiko. Mai would always aggrieved me at a young age and this ship never made any sense to me, where at least I knew that Kataang had bit more understanding. But now I cannot get enough of Zutara and though I don't do any of the shipping around Kataang doesn't mean I won't stop people to enjoy whatever ship they chooses. Cause while there are some moments of Kataang gets me on edge but overall I don't mind seeing the small moments of them either. In a way neutral on both Katara ships but personally favor Zutara more. ❤️

Profound reading of the story's message. I am very much in agreement, and it was deeply fulfilling to watch. Thank you.
