[@mordercainear9573]

Some actors have such a unique voice that we could recognize them right away, like Yuri Lowenthal, Liam O'brien, Mark Hamil, Matthew Mercer. I was gonna say Troy Baker too but his Joker and Batman voice were so distinct from his other works

[@AshParth560]

Plenty of actors sure be that way, too. Mark Hamill being 72 and he still got that Joker/Luke Skywalker talk. So pretty much Dallas might still be up for such at a late age. 😊

[@d4rksonic474]

@@YouDaMANRAJ Yeah, Slumdog Millionaire speaks for itself.

[@kimmiewise1044]

Honestly yeah, I kinda feel bad for him and I think Dante really tried to get the fans to forgive Dev for that performance because it really wasn't his fault the movie was as crap as it was. It really seemed like he was tricked into this production and by the time he was with the Fire Nation ensemble of all the Indian guys for what was clearly supposed to be a far east Asian ensemble, it was too late. He already signed the contract, he probably even did individual close up shots already so it was too late to jump ship without some SERIOUS repercussions. Same with Zach as well. Just a kid trying his best and by the time it became obvious that the production was drowning, it was too late for him to drop the role.

[@jkrfan7]

Dev tried. He really did. Which is more than any of the actors did

I love the two Zukos. But THIS is Prince Zuko and Firelord Zuko.

[@Puckett.]

Dev Patel deserves the respect. It’s not his fault the movie was bad he was actually one of the better aspects of the movie. He was a bad cast for Zuko just because of his appearance but he can’t help that. All the blame for that movie falls on M Knight. It’s not the actors/actresses fault they were poorly cast based on their experience and appearance for their roles. They got the job they aren’t going to turn it down. They also aren’t responsible for the terrible dialogue given to them. Could they have acted better maybe but you work with what you have when it comes to the script given to you.

[@renadavid8590]

Well, Nicola Peltz wanted to be Katara, so she asked her dad to bank roll the movie, so...

[@subinitamazumder1307]

Actually what 5% good reputation the film still has due to Dev's acting. Probably the only actor in the film who did the job of the actor.

[@seraby7151]

Thank god his reputation wasnt destroyed after that film, he is a fantastic actor.

[@ThePythonfan]

Nothing wrong with his looks even ok despite the obvious non fitting of the clear japanese influences of the fire nation, if they made the whole switch (whcih they did) would be ok. I was actually pretty excited with him cast as zuko at the time... i thought he could well portray the depth, with him being such a good actor....but alas

[@znys9972]

I watched the Netflix one and rewatched the movie. I grew up with the cartoon and then movie and bro. The movie has waaaaaaaay better acting. The princess is actually pretty. Katara and Sokka yes were white but had blue eyes realistic clothes actually looked cold in the snow! The acting was cringe but way better than the children in the new show. Especially Aang he talks like he’s autistic or something. Everyone casted is nice race wise but damn are they ugly! Ugly and very bad acting

"Over a decade later", Dante it's been almost 20 years since ATLA first aired 😭

6:32 I need people to understand why Dallus agreed with Dante. Its because this show really did!!! I remember being kid watching this show on Nick Toons every chance it was on I was engaged, excited, and happy it was on. This is one of those rare tv shows that just getter better with age and is still as good as it was when u were a kid verse a young adult like myself. Themes, character growth, cool bending system, and overall a community of people who love it. It still amazes me to this day that there were only three seasons, most television shows nowadys tells 5 to 6 seasons. But Avatar was straight to the point and amazing. Lastly, the character of Zuko is just so iconic because I can't tell you one other character that has the best redepemtion arc in fiction, the only one coming to mind is prince Vegeta. Ironicly enough, he is also a prince lol.

[@animalfinatic9366]

I can't imagine being at that maturity range to completely understand everything that was going on. I watched this show as it aired too but it came out in 2005 and I was born in 2002 so I was extremely young, and now that I've grown into my own person, I learn more about the show than I did when I was younger. It must have been an experience to interact with the fans and anticipate the show's episode in real time. I gained the most conscious awareness of the show when it was completed. And I had a deep understanding of it but being a child you only absorb so much. You're the OG of the OG's

"We're trying to get the world back in balance." Holy shit, that gave ME chills. I was almost moved to tears now hearing that, I can't even imagine the extent of the impact Dante would've felt being told that to his face. What an amazing way to say... yeah I mean. ATLA really shaped my life and who I am too, all of Iroh's advice made me a much better person: mindful, respectful, kind whenever I can be. This is very neat to listen to. I'm still worried about the show, especially with every 'It doesn't have to be line for line" emphasis. Like, yes, of course I understand and always expected such, so why do you keep bringing it up lol, are you rewriting everything or something?? I wasn't really concerned but every time that defense gets reinforced by anyone with the show it like, ticks up the worry for me. Yall get what I mean? Like when someone explains something then you go, "okay, gotcha :) " and then they explain it again and you're like, "...yeah, I said I understood you, it's cool." and they keep going and then you're like, "Hey is something up or something, did I misunderstand?". Anyways- Still excited. I wanna have fun with it, I hope they get to go all the way through the end of S3. Even if I end up not enjoying it, I'm not gonna rag on any of the actors. They just seem so stoked and really love the source material so.

[@jaginaiaelectrizs6341]

A lot of people seem to pick on the scream, but I thought it was actually appropriate....Zuko was angry, but he was also kind of heartbroken/devastated/ and doubting himself / questioning his whole reality, too.

I also really liked that jake long series. That one was good. I like to experience different cultures and life experiences from my own. That's why I loved the disney movies and shows growing up. They were good at giving a window into the experiences of many different people from around the world. I feel like I was educated on a lot of culturals. Gained wisdom from many peoples and ways of thinking. That's how I see it. It's just about learning. Seeing through a different lens.

What a beautiful conversation between these two. There's so much respect and reverence between them and for the series.

This is a legendary moment here

amen

[@Zombie6669muffin]

ying and yang OG cast and new cast coming together in perfect balance.. I hope we get to see the whole cast talk to their characters and come back as cameos if they do a Ember Island remake lol

[@Luke101]

Dante put his SOUL into voicing Zuko. Such a legend. And mentioning Dev? Class.

[@rebeccakamara5853]

I ABSOLUTELY love prince Zuko. His backstory, where he came from and went/going. I can’t wait to watch the entire journey again with Dallas Liu as Zuko. There is soo much to learn from him and actually the entire cast of this show. I just love this show.

[@wintergoat6612]

You can tell Dallas went all out with this role and he's only going to be better in future episodes to come. His emotion and acting was so great for a complex character.

Whenever Dante talked, I hear prince Zuko. CANT WAIT FOR THE NETFLIX ADAPTATION

[@MamboCat84]

Dallas has been great as Zuko, easily a big highlight of nu Avatar. Can't wait to see his version of "that's rough, buddy" xD

[@DarkHeart515]

I wish Dante Basco was in more things. He had a nice career, but in my mind he should've been bigger

[@akemi86]

Everytime i hear dante speak, i hear rufio and then i hear zuko. Hes so iconic

[@Sasha-jo4tw]

the way that Dante actually sounds like that 24/7 is CRAZY i'd never stop talking if i sounded like Zuko irl

[@annenonymousse]

😂

[@janderson947]

I wonder did he use that zuko voice first when he met his wife.like I would love to hear the story behind that

[@claudiuskeat8336]

Dante's passing down the torch. This is a historic moment.

[@modenabutterfly4536]

Dallas is the perfect Zuko. I actually have a crush on the animated Zuko and now Dallas to potray in the live action makes me in love with Zuko even more 😍❤️
