Stop saying ATLA fans want a 1 to 1 remake of the cartoon, everytime they criticize the live action
I don't know about anyone else, but I'm getting pretty sick and tired of the live action supporters dismissing genuine criticisms of the Netflix show as "you just want a 1:1 remake".
No. As a fan of the OG I don't want a 1:1 remake. I want a good story that keeps the spirit and integrity of the original characters intact.
I wanted them to take the original cartoon and expand on its themes and concepts in original and creative ways.
NOT take the plot, remix it, bastardize the characters, and create an even worse story because of it.
If the original cartoon didn't exist , this show would have completely flopped. Why? Because it keeps making BAD choices in its writing and dialogue.
When fans make comparisons to the original cartoon, they're not doing it because they want the live action to be exactly like the original cartoon..
The comparisons are there to DEMONSTRATE the difference between good and bad writing, and why the changes don't work for the characters and the story they're trying to tell.
I get some people like the live action. I do. But please stop invalidating criticism that is out there as just nostalgia attachment when it isn't.
