“What I’m” Wednesday: Avatar the last Airbender!
Added 2020-11-04 15:09:50 +0000 UTCHappy Wednesday everyone! Well... i mean it’s not the best Wednesday, but let’s not dwell on that right now. This Wednesday I want to talk about what I’ve been doing this week and I’m so fucking excited to tell you all that I’m re-watching avatar the last air bender! I haven’t watched this show in almost 11 years and I can’t beleive how well it’s held up. You know what, it’s not even fair to say “held up” becuase I think this show is more powerful today than it ever was.
I’m sure that nostalgia plays a role in my enjoyment of this re-watch but I really really feel that anyone and everyone woudl enjoy it. For those who don’t know what it’s about, it centres around a group of friends who want control the elements trying to save the world. I know That sounds totally Contrived, but hot dang it’s fantastic! I worried it would be cheesy since it from 15 years ago, but it’s not! It’s progressive in a way that isn’t preachy and handles a lot of adult issues in ways that can be understood by children but still shook me to the core.
I’ve almost cried a few times watching this and that says something. This isn’t one of those shows where you’re like “if you can get past the first few episodes”, it’s genuinely lovely from the get go. It’s currently on nexflix so do your self a favour and give it a try or a rewatch! The episodes are only 20 mins long, what else have you got to do?

I see you more of a Soka than an avatar or a Mako

2020-11-04 15:36:43 +0000 UTCI love it too! Have you seen Korra? I have all DVDs here, but I wasn't in the mood for watching it yet. Can you recommend it, if you have seen it?
