telling to gordon this "we searched the whole world then we found you" sounds like real avatar tho
"a decade has passed and the crew discovered the Live Action Avatar. A little kid named Gordon although his acting is great, he has a lot to learn before we continue to season 2 and 3, but I believe Gordon is the one."
@@vailingbow1068this is sooo funny 😂😂
@@erdooiyanna6046 Well thank you 🤣
@@vailingbow1068bro 😂😂🔥
@@SANDERTHEGOAT3043 What can I say except- 🤣
Paul is so well spoken, It's so inspiring listening to him speak about his experiences on the set. Really gives Iroh vibes...
And he's pretty cute too
Loving him as Iroh already! Thursday can't get here fast enough!
that's what make him suit for the role, he is very compassionate iroh
He is definitely Iroh
He has to have tea
my favorite part of the entire show so far, is whenever iroh asked zuko, “do you have a plan?” and zuko goes onto rant about how his plan is his honor and stuff, iroh says “so no plan?” “i’m working on it uncle” 😭
that was also one of my fav moments!
@@Neantoa i’m so glad 😭
That was a peek into zuzu, definitely 😂
Sameee that was literally best part of the live action imo “I’m working on it uncle” like the tone and facial expressions where just perfect
"We have searched the whole world to find you!" "Huh?" The way they said it resembles the moment when Aang found out he's the Avatar so much. I love it!
😅
@@nielmaceda5303 Even the expression... it's not 100% but it's the closest thing to reality.
Dallas and Paul both said their favorite parts were working together. I love it
So wholesome 😭😭
true zuko and iroh moment
Kiawentiio being an OG fan since childhood is probably the best thing of the show, she had a great childhood
Kind of Gives me the same vibe as. Star killer from star wars and Hayden Christiansen coming bakc for OBI wan . The fact that they are actual fans and correct things when they’re wrong is just amazing . Like Daniel said when fans are making the project they pay way more attention to execution n what not
The entire cast are so great,they need Gordon to tap into his real life a bit more for anng is my thought
I love how Daniel Dae Kim said he was more or less VERY aware of the fact the fans of ATLB will crucify anyone who gets this wrong.
right! 🤭
He was completely right
they already did it wrong with the classic intro clip but im watching this for the experience. its really different to watch it in live-action and although they aren't that faithful to the OG, they know what's important and did their best to translate it to live action.
@@sirius7517couldn't said it better. The experience is different indeed!
Ah, my favorite series, Avatar the last BENDER
I can’t wait to see Paul get absolutely ripped when he gets imprisoned in the show hahaha I really hope they do that
Forgot about that 😂
yesss
AI abs
Ok but did y’all know Daniel dae Kim was the voice actor for the crazy earth guy (General Fong) who tried to trigger aang’s avatar state in 2x1?
omg wow really? that's so cool I had no idea
And Hiroshi Sato, Asami's dad.
@@satyre_1 oh that I didn’t know! How cool
@@satyre_1 omg didn’t know that either, that’s so freaking cool he’s been in the game for a while!!
Omggggg
3:09 TYPICAL Ozai, always thinking about the execution of things...
understood that reference. lol
@@sirius7517I understood THAT reference lol
I love how Daniel is aware and understands of how passionate the fanbase is about this series
tbh,not all but some fans can be too critical, negative and nitpicky. they expect perfection, nothing less than
*hateful
Ozai should be the least worried 😦
Sometimes that passion leads to unrealistic expectations, clouds and biases their judgement and experience, and tends to unfairly tilt reception in a negative trend which can lead to unwarranted consequences. I personally don’t care about or find any weight in the opinions of such people…
@@Pooks8 this comment needs to be plastered into everyone's heads bc you're 100% correct
The bromance between Paul and Daniel is perfect
Gordon is the perfect aang (:
I totally agree, I watched the The Avatarist review the first episode said that Gordon Cormier (Aang) is the surprising part
he’s so adorable and funny i love him so much
Awesome Gordon cormier will be awesome as. Aang can't wait to watch it 😊
Mr.paul will be amazing as uncle uroh 😊 Mr Paul Hyung Lee sun was amazing last night I have watched the Avatar the last Airbender TV series on Netflix and I have watched all 8 episodes in one night I loved the series and I really hope the cast and crew and directors will be returning to be busy. Workjng on season 2 And I love and respect the character of Paul Hyung Lee sun for his portrayal as the character role of uncle uroh. I laugh and I cried when the character had so many lost of sadness he lost his son Lu Tien in battle and his brother fire Lord ozai as a brother Dallas liu as Prince Zuko lost his father's respect and hs has to fight his own sister that is going to be a tough one In every sad emotional scenes of general uncle uroh and Prince Zuko I can't help myself from crying 😭😔
Daniel dae Kim you will be incredible as the fire lord ozai congratulations 🎉😊on being in the series
Daniel found the fountain of youth, he still looks the same like 20 years ago in Lost.
FOR REAL. Maybe he even is in a better body shape.
I’m remembering back to when they cast Gordon that so many people were like “He looks tiny! He’s too young! Him and Katara will be so weird!” They obviously don’t know that puberty is a thing. Haha. Kid has shot up and sounds completely different! Gonna be taller than Sokka and Zuko by season 3. 🤣
EXACTLYYY. Boys grow slower than girls but when they grow they GROW. I remember this in health class. They casted the PERFECT people for Aang and Katara!!!
so real
i saw his ears and was like, yup he’s perfect 🤌🏼
I knew paul was a great casting after seeing him in the kim’s convenience
I know right! He was really funny in Kim's convenience
I couldn’t believe he didn’t have an accent after hearing him talk irl
@@killuatheog4129 I think he practiced that 🤔 I mean that could be possible haha
Some sneak attacks are good.
@@scruffd0g193 yeah I liked appas sneak attack 😂
Toughest thing about casting actors Gordon's age if there's a second season that sweet soft voice is gone.
Aang hitting puberty, hello moustache 😂
Or they could use helium to make him sound young 😂 kidding
Dallas and Paul nailed it!!!! They are their characters. I was totally immersed with them. Incredible performances. Honestly how the show handled all the fire nation characters is just chef’s kiss!! Perfect! 🔥
Paul is literally so humble and kind 😭
Just like Iroh irl 😭
The airbenders defending and fighting made me cry. Knowing they are pacifists and only tried to defend themselves. The kid airbenders trying to hide and monk gyatso die trying to save them… oh my gosh. Aang’s last flashback with Monk Gyatso just broke me. It was such a strong and sad opening to ATLA.
Reminiscent of some images and videos I have seen of current events 😢 It hit my core.
To know that it's happening in real life right now ...... :(
@@s.hjawed9247it's happened many times. Sadly America is still standing despite its crimes.
BRO!!!! The Iroh casting is the best casting choice, and it is perfection. Kiawentiio's Katara is no doubt gonna be the best one this Thursday.
They're all so wholesome and sweet oh man my inner child is healing! What Daniel said about them genuinely being a family was so sweet too.
I cried so many happy tears when we found out that Paul was cast as Uncle Iroh. He is absolutely perfect for the role.
Gordon & Kia’s chemistry as Kataang is chef kiss 💯
You don,t deserve 30 likes, you deserve 1k likes
You’re a Gigachad
Uhm….
@@shilananayati1662um actually 🤓🤓
aww @@shilananayati1662 gonna cry over a 3 year age gap?
12:05 everybody needs to listen to paul and fully understand what he said! 💯
💯💯💯💯
Please be good I love the cast soo much. at this point I want it to be good not for me but for the cast😂
The guy who played general Zhao was incredible. I never noticed it wasn't him 😂 now that it's mentioned here.
He shoulda been bigger though. Zhao was a big guy in the animated series and I thought he was to small in the live action.
I loved the cast. Yes, they are new and sometimes their acting got shaky, but since they are young I can give them time to perfect their craft. I love Aang (and that he’s half Filipino). They are really likable. Katara’s voice was super crucial to me because she’s always had a soothing, calming, motherly, yet young and strong voice… and they did get it right! Aang was super cute and I just always smiled watching him. Zuko and sokka were good too. I cried hearing “leaves from the vine” instrumental. ❤ I see they meshed some episodes together, but I really like it.
i agree, my first critique was their acting but then i remembered the first harry potter film and nothing but improvement happened as the show progressed.
Gordon is adorable
So much respect for Daniel Dae Kim, the Agni Kai scene shows a worried father behind the apparent simple cruel actions to Zuko. He really levelled up the character
As "worried" as you can be while burning your child' eye... he definitely levelled up the character, but I wouldn't describe him as a worried father unironically.
How can I love them so much already? The show is not even out yet.
sameeeee
im at the finale rn and ive gotta say im so glad netflix didnt fumble the cast was amazing the acting way almost perfect and as a huge avatar fan im honestly satisfied and hyped for the next seasons and other parts of the avatar universe
Paul makes me love uncle Iroh even more tbh 🥹
I JUST finished binge watching the whole 1st season and it was so good😭
I can't wait to finish it, I've heard many mixed reviews but I think I will enjoy it
@@SienaMelia BABYYY, IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING😭😭 IT HAD ME LEVITATING FR🙏🏽
I will watch this series after ramadan 🥺
@@rosy_110 PLSS I HOPE THEY MAKE ANOTHER SEASON AFER RAMADANN😭😭 I’m so excited for Ramadan!!
@@Berriyes same here in sha Allah I'll pray for new season 😂
Shoutout to the Zhao actor, great job
I cannoooot wait for Toph to join!!
It's crazy you can hear his natural laugh like Ozai 💀
I know lots of people were not happy that the original writers weren't going to be part of this project BUT maybe that was for the best...As Dante Basco says to Dallas in their character conversation interview, "it's your turn". It is their turn. and they are fully aware of how much the show means to people. I honestly had my doubts. but now i'm rewatching the show for a 4th time. Its is done well and is very respectful to the original story
Im sorry daniel Dae Kim is one of the kindest people in the world bro is literally an angel!
gordon’s such an adorable young man. he perfectly suits the role! (he’s him)
They are all such great embodiments of the characters they play. As someone who absolutely loves ATLA I say they did great.
The whole cast just looks incredible and I can’t wait to watch it on Thursday! ❤️❤️😁
Indeed! Can't wait. 3 more days
@@djulianofficialhope you enjoy it hotman!
right back at you hotman!@@volumes_up
@@volumes_up thanksss u 2! But what eh does hotman mean 😂
@@djulianofficialAang says it a lot in the original show
i didn’t realize Daniel Dae Kim was in ATLA, but as soon as Ozai came on screen I was like “those cheek bones… that voice…. Dr. Han???” Amazing that google doesn’t even list Kim or Ozai in the cast of ATLA. I had to read an article to confirm it was him 😂 Kim being cast as Ozai is just perfect, he is both physically perfect for the role and his acting and experience is top knotch. It’s kinda wild to see him in such an aggressive and evil role though, but I’m happy it’s him!
You can see how wholesome is the relationship between Paul and Dallas 😭😭 so sweet🥺 Edit: 8:30 lmaoo 😭 he’s so honest is great 😂🙌🏼
Gordon reaction is soo cutee! He is the perfect aang❤
I love the chemistry of all the characters... truly the full cast is on point🙌
It sucks that they’re under a microscope and probably seeing such much negativity right now with our fanbase that had such high and specific expectations. Kiawentiio says she always loved this show and grew up with it but she is receiving a lot of backlash now for not being as connected to the group or motherly. Hopefully people take a step back and realize that this is not her intention. If it comes off that way that she’s either being directed poorly or not being caught on film in the best light.
Man! This made me love to talk to Iroh's actor about the series, he can geek out on me while we have tea.
Paul's description of the show is so cool! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE SHOW
This is very encouraging, because idk if any of the cast or the director m night shyamalan even tried to stay true to the original story 😬😬 here theyre actually careful in attention to detail, the whole crew on the show are fans themselves, so they really want this to be good and be true to Avatar 👍🏼
So proud of this beautiful cast! Excited to see the series :) LOVE ATLA
i’ve been watching this an old fan, been watching it w my mom and she is now becoming, a new fan. (she’s born in 1961)
I’m excited to see the comedy aspects of this Zuko and Uncle Iroh 🤩❤️☕️
The casting is 99% spot on, the acting is great, visuals could be a little better.. but it's good enough. Hopefully two more seasons will arrive. Netflix would be INSANE not to keep this show going and potentially make Legend of Korra next (or an original story).
I just finished all 8 episodes and I love it 🥰 the changes they did make, made sense to me and didn't bother me at all! They could have given Sokka, Katara and Zuko colored lenses xD and I would have loved to have more episodes, but thats all xD
It is all so beautiful, the landings, clothes, cgi. I want second season now.
HIS ESTRANGED WIFE??? MORE ZUKO BACKSTORYYYYY
They do have to go to the fire nation sooner or later if they follow the cartoon . I’m so excited for the next seasons already
they all perfectly fit and murked their roles. kudos 👏🏽
I LOVE THEM !!!! (thanks for this cosmo ukkk)
Having watched all the current episodes, I just want to say the cast/crew did a stupendous job. It it definitely worth the watch!
I just love how passionate paul is about the show❤
Aside from the 4 lead casts, I was really amazed of the acting of Iroh, I really like it when he is on a scene, would like to watch more of him... Also Zuko's father, Jet and Suki... They did not fail on this live action, same with One Piece
What uncle Iroh said at the end, is exactly how i felt: even with the changes you could still recognize scenes and be satisfied so i couldn't get mad about anything. I must say 'great cast' . NowLet's take a look at my fav mantra ..😊 Long ago the four nations lived together in Harmony, then everything changed when the fire nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements could stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. ...
nearly teary eyed right now... because the casting was done right... brilliantly right. cant wait for season 2.
I really hope appa Lee will get ripped for the day of the black sun 😂
HAHAHA this is the best comment
I was waiting for somebody to make this comment 😂
I love that Iroh is played by Paul who’s also Carson in Star Wars Mandalorian and Ahsoka. My fave tv uncle plays my fave tv x wing pilot
kim's convenience,,,, the father!!!!!!!!! love that show.
Smiling the whole time!
Such a nice cast ❤
gordan its such an aang T..T
Oh i so want the next season!!! Very faithful to the animation, enjoyable!!
Bet y’all didn’t know uncle iroh is the dad from Kim’s convenience. He was my favorite character in that show, he’s so lovable funny and relatable. Best live action iroh 10/10 Omg he is the original appa because that’s what they call him in Kim’s convenience 🤯
I love that one of my favorite show growing up turned into something bigger! Most of my friends had never even watched the show growing up.
I am OBSESSED with Dallas' arms, holy hell
I went trough all the steps of grief while watching the show, it was hard to watch it but I don't regret it, in the end they did pull it off but wow what a wild ride it was and the CAST is AMAZING!!! Like I can not stress how good the cast is, my biggest issues has been dialogue and story telling that at moments didn't make much sense because it was just phrases from the original show in a setting that didn't work but after getting over the timeline changes and just accepting it's an alternative universe of at avatar universe it then became fun an exciting and my favorite dynamic duo is Iroh and Zuko but my surprising new favorite character is gran gran, she made me laugh out loud each time on screen yet her acting was stellar it's such a weird paradox but love her. I am happy the second part of the series did tie up some of the story line issues with the first few episodes and I think the characters new interpretations have been made clear so it will be easier moving forward with it an I'm actually looking forward to season 2 which I'm surprised about. I think if you are going to remake the show might as well make it different but with elements that feel natural and that they belong and elements that are missing and this show actually did that and that makes it worth it otherwise what's the point the cartoon is already a masterpiece. I think you can feel some hesitation in some of the first episodes in some actors but it slowly faded away in the end of the show and now they just got to run with it they got this. I'm honestly impressed. (the writers need a little wiping though actors can only work with the material that is given to them). Suggestion get beafy buff guy in Toph gear in the scene when we meet Toph it would be hilarious lol
I love the new series! Fantastic! I can't wait for season 2! ❤
dallas is just casually wearing a van cleef necklace .. lmaoo
1st 2 episodes I was like....it's ok....3 and 4 I was like ok this is getting better. 5 and 6 it got alot better and gave me something new. I'll watch 7 and 8 tomorrow I'm excited for it.
I love this series, and i am gald we are getting more.
Fire lord Ozai is exactly Fire slord Ozai omg
I am loving this cast. I am so excited to see it. Gordon is super adorable. What a cutie ❤😍
If they don't all start playing D&D together, I'm gonna cry. xD
Such a great series. Loved it so much
You guys are amazing!!! I enjoyed season 1, but I cannot wait for season 2!!! You have awesome energy, and chemistry, and honestly feel like a team Avatar... I just want to see this chemistry on screen... we really don't get that until the end of season 1, which is sad, but this makes me so incredibly hopeful!!!
My family just finished watching “Kim’s convience” a day before this came out. when we saw who the uncle was we were like… “Mr Kim?!”
Love the show, love the actors, they really did a beautiful piece and I enjoyed it a lot. I’m waiting for second season.
" they are very vocal and passionate " you have the idea lol
Ngl the writing for this show is slightly iffy. But certain scene between uncle iroh and zuko, actually brought tears to my eyes🥹. Nonetheless they better improve the writing and pick the perfect toph for season 2
All of them was spot on with their characters . 🎉 bravo 🎉
Has Daniel mentioned in any of these interviews that he's basically an OG to the world of Avatar? lol. He was general Fong in season 2 of ATLA and Haroshi Sato in LOK
7:30 how much “like” words he say in a minute? Omg
Ian is adorable. Love to see "Mr. Kim's Convenience"
just finished the series! i love it so much❤❤❤❤❤❤
Never watched Avatar so i went in blind! It was fun to watch it! Very interesting and the sfx was so amazing to watch😩🙏
They are really their characters ❤️❤️❤️
I love this show and the cast is perfect❤❤
It would be so much harder for these actors to actually have to physically act out this show! I really love the original show but I love the new cast too! And those natural cheekbones on Daniel!
Although there were major changes made from the source material, you can tell there were some huge fans working on the show based on some of the beloved tiny details from the og that were kept in.
3:00 Daniel is like, "If I'm going to be a part of this..." Dude, he is literally IN the original cartoon, AND in Legend of Korra. He's BEEN a part of it since the beginning! But, then again, taking on Firelord Ozai is a huge step up in rank. That's like straight to the top of the ladder. And I think they couldn't have cast it better. The final fight is going to be LIT! ...get it? Lol xD
It’s so sweet that Dallas and Paul both said the relationship between Iroh and Zuko for what they looked forward to recreating
AWWW YAY CANT WAIT TO WATCH
