What do we think of the upcoming live action TV series on Netflix?

I have not seen too much, but I'm excited and will give it a shot. I will for sure be better than the movie xD

But actually I am even more excited for the other cartoons

Agreed! The upcoming cartoon sequel movie looks promising giving the involvement of the original creators.

Please don't suck

I'm thinking it's a 50/50. The original creators left the project, but soon after ended up founding avatar studios at Nickelodeon. So maybe they left because of creative differences and the show will be horrible, or maybe they just left because avatar studios was too good to pass up. It's hard to know

Didn't they announce that they left because of creative differences? Which is rarely a good omen

I am not anticipating the Netflix show nearly as much as the upcoming sequel cartoon film that has the original creators attached.

I'm excited!

Is it still going to happen? I saw the One Piece trailer and it looks fantastic. I hope Atla is made and comes close to that but then I didn't see anything on the page on Netflix about atla.

I'm not sure if the release will be impacted by the strike or not, but it seems like the show is still on for a 2024 release.

I guess you're right, I couldn't find that page.

They have a lot to prove and a lot to lose with this TV show. The source material is already fantastic, I am all for more avatar but considering recent adaptations like Witcher etc, I am not optimist. The cast seems nice though, but that is usually not enough.

Back to the same stuff, eh? Don't people remember how the previous live action had gone? I expect this one to be no better. It's netflix after all and a live action on top of that.
