Earlier in the present day, Netflix dropped the most recent trailer for its adaptation of Avatar: The Final Airbender, the place it very a lot set the stakes for Aang and his mates. It additionally higher arrange the journey they’re going to all be occurring, and really gave us a take a look at among the forged’s performances as these now iconic characters. All of it appears to be like fairly sufficient, with the CG on the present’s varied creatures, like Appa the flying bison, and Momo, the winged lemur, and the entire bending appears to be like serviceable sufficient, however actually, you actually ought to simply go and watch the unique animated present.
A giant concern I’ve concerning the dwell motion take is the way in which bending is introduced, as one thing just like the wind cannot actually be conveyed all that effectively in an actual setting – this trailer form of highlights these considerations, and exhibits you why animation was such an ideal medium for a present like Avatar. Fortunately, the unique animated present is definitely out there on Netflix too, so if you happen to’ve by no means seen it, it is best to ensure that to test it out forward of (or as an alternative of) the upcoming dwell motion take.

However the whole lot modified when the Fireplace Nation attacked and worn out the Air Nomads, step one taken by the firebenders in direction of conquering the world. Avatar: The Final Airbender follows a younger Air Nomad named Aang, as he reawakens to a world ravaged by warfare. Collectively together with his newfound mates Sokka and Katara, he embarks on an action-packed quest to take his rightful place as the subsequent Avatar.”
We’ll quickly be capable to learn how profitable or unsuccessful the present is at capturing the magic of the unique, because it arrives on Netflix subsequent month, February 22.
