The Avatar Remake Is Painfully Bad
This isn't my bonus video! That will be out soon. This is a Little Joel video that's currently in copyright hell. Enjoy!

I’m on mobile and the video doesn’t play, how do I fix?
Joel please dress up like ang for the future of thes thanks
How can we watch this now that it's been taken down? I will give you a bajillion dollars joel pls I need your sweet sweet opinions
Thank you for cutting it so that it looks like the snowball that hit Aang was thrown by Gran-Gran.
"At least that was more fun." EXACTLY what I said about the new percy jackson series vs. the old movies. I hate this insistence these live action remakes and adaptations have on stripping the source material of any ounce of fun and whimsy it might have had in service of turning it into a boring, emotionally hollow drama.
I need you to make a video for every episode so I can justify the horrible mistake of watching every episode.
Would love to see more
i was expecting it to be bad, but damn...
Pleeeeeeease do more videos for this series, I love hearing your thoughts and it makes me happy remembering what I loved so much about the original
I liked the show well enough, but it has… problems…
Oh, wow. Every scene here was so painful, like physically hurt me. Thanks for this video, all the points you made are so real.
Just watched the first episode with my girlfriend before watching this video and we had the exact same reactions. It's genuinely baffling why they would rewrite such a good story in such bizarre ways. I don't even know what they were trying to 'fix'. Would love to see a series of this so I don't have to watch through the actual show
I've never even watched Avatar, but now you explaining it in the way you did made me wanna watch it. Cool!
It's really good.
This show has a big problem with cheesy inspirational lines & telling, not showing. (Katara’s “girl boss” line to Jet) Ozai says to Zuko “Compassion is weakness” before scarring him. Which sounds more cartoonishly evil than the original cartoon. In the og, he says, “You will learn respect, & suffering will be your teacher.” Which sounds like evil, but also something an abusive parent would say to their child. I think the og show is more character driven
i will watch you instead of the show if you do every episode, will be much more entertaining im sure, which is exactly what copyright is trying to prevent but we don't have to tell youtube that. anyway, great video
Especially love how every single scene goes on for at least one line too long, just so the theme/character motivation can be spelled out in the bluntest way possible. Like the show is absolutely terrified that you won't get *exactly* what it's going for At All Times. Extremely good stuff. (Please do the other episodes!)
If there's not enough to say about every episode, I would still love to see you talk about the next few or something like that.
Feels like the characters love talking about a show that has characterization.
Come on Big Joel, every show deserves an off night. I am sure they will bounce back in the second episode nothing to be concerned about
Thank you for doing this service, I don't wanna watch the show but as a fan of the og I am perversely curious about how badly they do it
mmm oh yeah love a man with strong avatar opinions go off king 😤
