There are many things flying around the internet about Netflix’s live action Avatar the Last Airbender series. Fans of the original animated series have been holding out cautious hope for a while now and we have expectations. This is one of the most definitively perfect shows of all time and the choice to turn it into a live action after the execution of the film was a bold one. The series releases on the 22nd and fans are already pointing out the horrendous choices that the creatives have made. Perhaps the first mistake is the creatives opening their mouths about the unnecessary changes that they have decided to make. Perhaps the problem was choosing to make the series in the first place, either way we have things that NEED to happen in this show. Without them the show will fail and the fans will do everything in their power to make sure that it never gets a chance at a second season.

My honest gut feeling is that the live action series is not going to be any better than the live action movie. I want to have hope but we really need to stop messing with perfection. And the animated series is, perfection. There is no reason to remake it and there is most definitely no reason to change it. Avatar the Last Airbender has exactly 1 chance to convince the audience that it isn’t a money grab. And it has to prove itself to a very unforgiving audience.
