Let's start over. . .
I just started chasing Avatar recently. After watching the first season, I watched this movie, and it was completely orz.
Much-criticized adaptations aren't a new topic, but there's definitely no shortage of good ones, look at Silent Hill, look at Game of Thrones. . . It is indeed not easy to adapt from a novel to a movie, and it is difficult to shake those images in the hearts of readers of the original book, but if you adapt from an animation to a movie, do you still have a reason for not being able to make it well?
It's impossible to express a season of about 400 minutes in a 100-minute film with a tight plot. It's just nonsense. All the foreshadowing and echoes have been changed, and the plot is progressing too fast. It is simply impossible to express the changes and emotions that have accumulated over time in the original work.
Casting really is. . . Incomprehensible. Katara's bitter face. . . Aang's dull eyes. . . Soka's only advantage is that little white face. . . (Not to mention that Shui Zong in the animation is dark-skinned = =)
and Lord Zuke, there is no prince at all, although he is an exiled prince, the temperament. . . Ah San face. . . Roar like a savage. . .
Appearance and acting skills can be used as excuses, after all, they are just some young children, but the tampering of the characters is completely nonsense. What impresses me most is the part of persuading Tu Zong to resist the enslavement of the Fire Nation. It should have been Katara's scene, but it was abruptly moved to our supernatural powers. The reason for doing this is clear at a glance, to highlight the heroic image of the protagonist, and write all the good things about him~ But this way, some "incompatible" problems will appear. The reason why Katara does this is that she The sense of justice, I am afraid there are two major factors, that is, the hatred of the Fire Nation and the brave character. Aang was still familiar with his role as savior bit by bit at that time, and he did not see the atrocities of the Fire Nation during his 100 years of sleep, and Katara experienced it firsthand (it seems that the Fire Nation did to her mother.. .) So Aang's hatred of Huozong is not as deep as Katara's. And Soka is not as brave as Katara, but his character is more prominent in wisdom (represented by being clever) and reality (this is very important, in order to save everyone's life, so he didn't want to involve his sister in the first place. The struggle between Tuzong and Huozong). Therefore, it should be Katara among the three who insisted on going forward.
There is also something to say, damn, there is no martial arts instruction in this film! those moves. . . The nonsense action doesn't look like the original, and the most annoying thing is that in the original, the action and the effect are basically synchronized.
And the funniest thing, can you find a suitable Asian actor? It’s all stories from Asian cultural backgrounds. In the movie, there are white and big Caucasians~ and Huo Zong, is it all? Are you Indian? That Marshal Zhao, he's so fluffy, his bulging eyes are about to become bumpy, and that "wretched Indian man" type of smile (see Raj of TBBT...) Can you find a normal Asian? . . [Kneel down. . . Asia is not only India, dear!
At this point, it seems that I finally think of the one-star movie, Wu Bao's "House of Death", another MS adaptation that will be stigmatized for thousands of years. . .
