Ya at this point, I'm too hurt. I dont acknowledge the existence of live adaptations until the reviews come out. Have seen Netflix One Piece and HBO TLOU. Still have not seen Netflix Bebop or the Avatar Netflix / shamalonanon movie.

There is no movie in Ba Sing Sae

It's amazing how a huge fandom has so completely shut out a big entry.

...Hypothetically. Not that there is any movie.

I'll be honest with you, the first episode of Netflix Bebop did actually feel like a Cowboy Bebop episode, I thought it was actually quite good. Then it... kinda went downhill, as I recall.

I mean I thought it was a pretty great adaptation, that being the keyword. An interpretation of the original. I mostly really enjoyed the cast, they definitely seemed into their characters. Shame we only got that season, I feel like it had a lot of room to grow from.

Netflix One Piece and HBO TLOU

Those were both great though?

I think that's what they're saying.

Yaya i watched those ones once people confirmed that they were good.

One of my dirtiest secrets is that I saw the Shamalang Airbender movie before I watched (or even somehow was very familiar with) the animated series...

And I thought it was fine! I didn't hate it!

Now, ATLA is in my top 5 favorite shows of all time and I've watched it like a half dozen times. Pretty sure if I went back and watched the film I'd hate it.

But still, I wonder if it really wasn't THAT bad if we weren't expecting it to be just like the show.

I wouldn't know
