From what I’ve heard they removed important character traits from each protagonist. They took away Aang’s playfulness, Katara’s maturity and sense of responsibility, and Sokka’s growth arc.

Or for a quicker summary: they combined the Jet episode with the machinist and the secret tunnel.

They also seem to have removed all meaningful interaction between aang and katara in favor of exposition.

What kind of interactions are are going to be interesting between characters whose important traits have been removed?

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

None, of course, but it's through those interactions we learned about their personalities in the original. There's neither in this.

Wow, these studio guys are absolute geniuses!!!1!

Hangs head

So Jet invents a blimp that he takes Katara in a wheelchair on, but they get lost, sing a song about giant glowing moles that brainwashed him using hippies, and it's ambiguous whether the pain of almost but not quite kissing Katara killed him?
