The way I see it, the only way a movie would work is if they stopped at the Zabuza arc...

But at that rate, how many movies would it take to complete the entire story?


Unless they wanna rush and combine everything...and then they'll introduce Orochimaru in the first movie


A series would be the best bet...you can cover the entirety of OG Naruto in 2 seasons...

Naruto isn't that long if you pace it better...
Imagine it this way...

Prologue + Team 7 Training + Zabuza arc = 3 episodes

Chunin Exam + War with Sand Village = 5 episodes

Total 8 episodes


Season 2-
Naruto Training with Jiraiya + Akatsuki attack = 2 episodes

3 legendary Sannin arc = 2 episodes

Buildup to Sasuke leaving = 1 episode

Sasuke Retrieval arc = 3 episodes

Total 8 episodes
exactly

I don't agree with your rating...
But I agree it does get boring at times...

I finished One Piece at a single sitting...

I slept off 3 times on an episode of this Netflix ATLA. But yet I still don't think it's bad like you're saying...it's just not as fun
You are right! I only gave it that rating because live actions are meant to elevate the original source material. One Piece became the most watched anime a week after the live action - people started watching anime because of it. I don't think this will do the same but instead reduce the quality

Laughing.. definitely you haven't seen the animé. All the main characters are still developing.. before you could see what you really want will be in season 2.. like episode 6 upwards.

If you feel bored watching Avatar Last Air Bender.. well, I felt same about Attack on Titan to be candid. Same as Solo Leveling too
The fact you don't even know who Toph is tells me you are watching the animation on Indian Youtube. It's not about being bored, It's about the quality of the characters, dialogue, and writing. AOT was boring- acknowledged, but you know there was a sense of quality in the writing and direction

How will you go into a live action adaptation with so much expectations. I believe that's where your problem comes from.
But that's to be expected in a live action especially one where the initial showrunner weren't part of it. Going into it expecting alot is just setting yourself up for disappointment. They will hardly ever capture the same charm of the animation that's just the truth.
Bro, why wont there be so much expectationshuh They had the biggest budget after One Piece, a bigger budget than Game of Thrones, The Last of Us (which is also a live action adaptation winning awards already), One Piece (another live action that hasn't even finished their animation). They had the best vfx team in the world but they decided to use writers who are not even part of the fandom. It is wack as a standalone series, I never compared it with the animation, I compared it with One Piece and The Last of Us! Can you just admit it's not with those series in any way shape or form.

jikins:
The visuals were a massive improvement from the movie. I thought it would be impossible to ever portray bending in live action but they did it well. There's alot of room for improvements that's for sure but I am looking forward to where they take it in season 2.
the problem with you guy is comparing this mess to the bigger mess called the movie that must not be named. Shymalan has set the bar so low that you guys will acknowledge mediocrity. Wow

So! Will it get the One Piece live-action treatment or the ATLA live-action treatment? I'll be watching from the sidelines either way.
It's actually a movie which is a minus

I would have preferred if it was a series but I trust the director since he's also trusted by the creator

You haven't compared it to Game of Thrones yet. Thats the main reason for this show. It's supposed to be on par with Game of Thrones.
💀💀💀 were you expecting Katara to fck her brother😂? They totally diluted even the adult images of the cartoon, the original is even more adult than this mess

It won't be out for a while, and when it's, it'll be available on Crunchyroll. I've watched it tho, the best camrip version

NeoWanZaeed:
Lol.
From my side.. everything is perfect.
Maybe you've not been watching a lot of good series or movies lately. I'm a hardcore fan of ATLA and I can't even finish an episode without dosing off. I downloading the whole One Piece series and watched everything in one sitting without feeling bored a bit.
Aang's storyline was just so flat- Aang is 12 years old bro 12 years!! and he doesn't even have fun throughout the show wtf!! He doesn't even have the space to make bad decisions.
Maybe the reason I hate it is because I'm not a regular movie viewer, but When watching movies or shows, I tend to watch their eyes and facial expressions, you can always tell when one is trying to remember a script and when they're not. Look at the acting of Meryl Streep or even the young actors of Stranger Things, you can definitely tell those actors can truly act and treat the Source material with respect. I think the Casting Director thought more about the appearance than the actual talent for this show tbh.
A -3/10 for me. Can't wait for the Animation show - the true representation of ATLA

Baddestguyp:
I just started it...
The first scene had a lot of Amateur acting...but the very next scene - the genocide of the air normads is very well done.

Too early to say
I have been having arguments on Reddit about this series all day.
To compare ATLA animation with this is not worth it because at this point no one can do what the animation did. If they tried to replicate the humor, it'll be worse than it is now.
So I try to compare with other live action like th Last of Us or One Piece; unfortunately, there's no comparison- the story is sooooooo full of shit bro, acting was so baaaad even from the older actors, background sound design was the worst - just insulting

Just like I've been singing since last year, we can all agree that DUNE PART TWO is the event movie of the year.

The crazy marketing WB has done for it no be here. Also re-release of part one did decent numbers few weeks back.

This one feels like the first billion dollar film of the year .
The most impressive thing tho is WB permitted reviewers to review a week before release!

oyaskii:
If "Morbius" is better than you as a Superhero flick, then i think everybody involved with this project should be given a life long creative ban ... actors, directors, writers....I mean ban everybody involved in this despicable pile of crap!..

The twisted irony is that this garbage and "Morbuis" were written by the same people 👀😭😭
It's Morbin time

The Book of Clarence - 3/10
The movie is boring asf even though the premise is fascinating to me; the acting is sooooo baaad bruv 😪 - the fact that Oscar Nominees decided to star in this🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️

Anyone but You - 4/10 - Generic piece of dog shit but we get to see Sydney Sweeney's ass😩

American Fiction - 9/10
I really wished this movie was longer😪 because it was so funny, the fact they made an Oscar worthy movie with quite a simple story blows my mind

Titanic - 7/10
