I feel like sokka, katara and zuko don’t need replacements bc their voices can just be a little deeper to emulate their adult voices. They were also all played by adults. Only really Toph and Twinkle Toes sounded like actual children.

[@Zephirite.]

It’s because he’s white. Crazy thing to say, but it’s confirmed that they wanted to only cast people of the same ethnicities as the characters. I’d be open, but it’s unfair to only let Dante Basco back. Either re-cast everyone in the old cast who wants to, or no one. And it’s weird, because Dante Bosco is American. So they don’t really care about ethnicity, just someone ‘looking’ the part…when we won’t even see them.

[@foob2066]

My biggest fear with this movie is if they nerf the main cast. All of them are extremely talented in their respective field. I don't think i need to write a list of what all of them learnt to do. If you know you know. The gang accomplished very impressive feats when they were literal children. We have yet to see them in their prime, which would be when this movie takes place since all of them are in their mid twenties. They've had 10+ years (since the show) to further hone and perfect their skills up until this point. The line in the description ".. the likes of which they've never seen." makes me worried. Are they going to nerf what are essentially prodigies to make this villain seem more powerful?

[@fernandoqq]

Maybe they'll just say that they were already close to their full potential and just improved a little bit, which isn't really a problem, only the creators know what each character's potential is. 😅

[@foob2066]

​@@fernandoqq Yeah that might be true but if you take into account that, once again, they were children. If you look at how much a human develops from around age 10 to mid twenties, that is ALOT. Your brain doesn't stop developing until you're 25. We grow, become stronger and more intelligent. It is only natural to assume that the cast's capabilities develops along themselves because they are like us, human beings. If Michael and Bryan come out and say that "oh they were already close to their full potential" isn't that a bit bullshit? Sure they are the literal creators of the show and they decide the rules but that just seems cheap and a bit ignorant to basic human capabilities.

[@fernandoqq]

@@foob2066 Physically? I'm sure they will improve on that, but bending is something fictitious that we don't completely know how it works. At least I don't see the problem with them being close to their maximum potential in the last comic they have appeared, bending doesn't have to improve with age to the same extent as the rest of the physical attributes. I don't think it's cheap, it's just the liberties you can give yourself when deciding how powerful you want your characters to be with a fictional system, if you had established that bending improves with age just like strength does, maybe if I would see it that way. Obviously bending has growth, but said growth is linked to other factors such as mentality, training, not age, yes, the older you are, the more difficult it is to fight, as happens to Toph or there are also exceptions like Bumi or Pakku. , but there is no indication that her bending has improved greatly since her youth, using numbers, I don't think Toph went from a 10 (Imbalance) to a 50 (Yakone's trial), maybe she went from a 10 to a 13 or 15 , which seems a little more reasonable than the characters being enormously better and the default villain being enormously powerful just because they have to present a challenge. If they keep them at a level not so far from their last appearance, they don't need someone super powerful to deal with them, as was the case with Yaling vs Toph.

[@sircuphead-ju7wl]

highly unlikely to happen. new villains pop up all the time, it doesn't mean they'll be nerfed. we're good

I think the Lost Realm might be a place beyond the spirit world, a hidden realm full of secrets. Maybe it's where the being who created the Avatar universe lives. Imagine, there could be spirits in this realm who represent the fundamental forces of the Avatar world, like the balance between creation and destruction that Raava and Vaatu embody. It could be a place where the Avatar faces powerful spirits or discovers new abilities that are connected to the very core of the Avatar universe.

[@timh.7169]

the voices wont be the same? that is sad af Also I really really hope they will keep it in the "chinese mythology" style like before and not like the americanized setting from Korra

[@newhybrid101]

They never were the same, they were changed in the Korra flashback. Also not necessarily,the movie takes place between the two eras and should reflect a bit both. This movie takes place only 8 years before Aang and Zuko canonically established Republic City(there is artwork on that),so it should show some transition

[@ThePrincessCH]

Technically, the franchise borrows inspiration from a plethora of cultures.

[@ConnorCocoas]

I actually liked Korra (not the flashbacks of season 2 I just pretend that rava nonsense didn’t happen) but I completely agree with your concern, the actual voice actors can literally play older versions of themselves…given that you know they’re older themselves. If they want to do an all Asian cast great, literally choose any avatar other than aang and korra; that’s the fun thing about avatar you have literally infinite stories and characters to use! Do they not know about this

[@timh.7169]

@@ConnorCocoas Yeah I think just replacing an long established and loved cast is the wrong way to approach this

[@silvereyes242]

Korra was not an Americanised setting. It was still heavily eastern. The only place that looks somewhat western in Korra is Republic City, due to the statue of Aang referencing the Statue of Liberty and the tall building structure. But even those tall buildings are heavily made eastern looking in their designs.

[@uncleirohsteashop]

Avatar: The Lost Realm would probably be my preferred title but I did love your idea of Bautista as the villain being a spirit like character. I just read The Rift for the first time and him playing a character like General Old Iron would be pretty cool. As far as Yuen coming back to voice Avatar Wan, I think that's what's most likely and it doesn't technically hurt the lore when some people say "Why didn't Aang tell Korra about Wan?". I mean, Roku never always really went deep into conversation with Aang about the other past Avatars as much so there's that.

[@Greenitthe]

"Roku never always really went deep into conversation with Aang about the other past Avatars" Exactly. Until harmonic convergence all of the avatars had access to their full history. Even though they don't seem to routinely commune with more than a full cycle back, Aang presumably knew that if she needed Wan they would just talk directly - no need to explain anything, y'know?

[@PelafinaLievre]

Aang and Korra also didn’t have very many conversations period. Wan was 10,000 years in the past. When Aang first saw the avatar statutes, he knew Roku when he saw him, but it took Katara to realize they were in a hall of avatars before Roku was spotted. It is somewhat implied that the connection is strongest with the avatar’s most recent incarnation.

the only cannon ancient villain i can think of would have to be elder glow worm as he has repeatedly plagued several previous avatars and it was stated he is ancient and older then most of the other spirits (older then the sun and moon spirits and i believe he is just as old or even older then ra and vaatu), we know the last time he appeared kyoshi destroyed his physical form and banished him back to the spirit world but considering 250-300+ years have passed since there battle that would be enough time for him to reconstruct his physical body and return, he is the only current cannon villain that would be a legit threat to current aang based on the timeline, he is also the most well known canon villain that has yet to feature on screen and so far has only appeared in books/light novels and been mentioned a few times in the comics, the lost realm could very well be the place/prison kyoshi banished him to and since a few centuries have passed he would now have regained his strength and broke out or he manipulates a side villain/antagonist into freeing him (although him manipulating some one into doing it would be 2 similar to how vaatu escaped his prison korra) and considering how ancient he is i can definitely see him having fought wong and ra in the past (wouldn't be surprised if he was the one that killed wong as i honestly doubt he just died in some random human vs human conflict considering how weak other benders were during his time and how powerful he was) and over the 10,000 years since has been a re occurring villain for other avatars and now aang, i am hoping it is infact him but i would be fine with a brand new villain as well but considering how much of a menace he is stated to be in the LN/books and comics i would prefer he is the villain for the movie.

As you say, plenty of room to introduce a new creature, but this really makes the most sense. He can already burrow between the worlds, allowing him to find a hidden plane of existence.

I really hope the writters have watched and disected both shows thoroughly and are able to do something that really reflects what The Last Airbender was all about, which is hard, given the fact that the show has hundreads of themes and executed them flawlessly

[@vetarlittorf1807]

The show didn't break any continuity. And Raava and Vaatu are based on Zoroastrian and Hindu mythologies, not the bible.

[@RedCanidae]

@@vetarlittorf1807 It breaks continuity regarding : - How spirits work; - The avatar journey and how bending and becoming the avatar actually works; - Massive historic events, such as the 100 year war, never freaking mentioned; - The avatar state becomes useless and Korra is simply gifted with it and the ability to turn it on and off whenever she wants, meanwhile Aang had to either give up completely of his relationships and all that keep him attached to his soul, not doing it at the end/ When it comes to Raava and Vaatu, different sources will tell you different stories from their inspiration, some will say that they are based on the Ying and Yang, some Zoroastrian and Hindu mythologies. Tho with all of the political bullshit that they implemented over in the show, with the "americanization" of so many different aspects, you really gonna tell me that you will defend the background of 2 entities you cant even trace their inspiration, because it is so generic and has no sort of emotional nor ethical conclusion, it is literally "good spirit vs bad spirit", as if every freaking culture in the world didnt had one of those, amongst a sea of ideas and inspirations, you have one a toddler could have pulled off on his own

Does he? Zuko was young and small when voiced by Dante,and now he has physically developed a lot.(Nearly grew a whole foot if we are looking at designs) He would sound a bit different logically. I mean i am 24 and i sound CONSIDERABLY different than at 16

Yeah ofc, Dantes voice is the staple Zuko voice.

[@brianarnold8666]

For the title bit, they are probably having the same problem the movie we do not speak of had. They cant use the word Avatar in the title of the movie because of the blue alien avatar series

[@XanafiedcatGaming]

Let's see James Cameron and his blue aliens try pulling that crap with The Avatar book by Poul Anderson published in 1978. He died in 2001 but copyright lasts for the author's entire life and a additional 70 years after they die. It has word has the word Avatar in the title and James Cameron can't do anything about it.

[@mr.dystopian5554]

I know in other countries it was called Legend of Aang. Maybe that's the de facto title.

What if is a forgotten realm or secret realm where ur can possibly gain new abilities but it’s also very very dangerous and at the end of the movie instead of making it a secret again they make it impossible to get back to the realm and it becomes a “myth” then they should leave hints at something still happening there at the end of the movie and then the new avatar has to fix it.

What if the main antagonist is an ancient spirit (not particularly malicious) from a deeper corner of the spirit realm who migrates to the living world to wonder through the eons until he finally gets disgusted with the existence of the corrupted...?

Literally a crime they are not bringing back more of the OG cast. most of them still have the voice and could just sound aged up. The more I hear about this the less interested I get
