I was skeptical too at first making me postpone till I finally finished it. I’ve watched the animated version lots of times so I didn’t want my childhood ruined like how that other Avatar movie ruined it😅.
Thankfully, Netflix did good. Though, some details were missed, I actually think they did good.
So you did watch the previous live action by Paramount? That thing, to me, was rubbish. I mean, the Avatar there didn't even have his tatoo to be blue as we know it in the animated series. And then they didn't even finish the film. Nonsense people. I am glad Netflix and Nickelodeon did a very good job with this one.
