Netflix’s live-action series Avatar: The Last Airbender hasn’t found favor with fans across the world. The show which is an adaptation of the popular 2005 animated series, has failed in its attempt to create a fresh take on the original mainly due to some key changes that were made to characters and various storylines.

While there were a lot of questions raised regarding the toning down of Sokka’s sexist attitude which was integral to the narrative, a bigger problem arose with the depiction of the central protagonist Aang and his transition to the Avatar State. The series took a huge risk by making one significant change that affected the core elements of the character’s journey.

Larry Charles’ résumé is all over the place. As a writer, he penned some of Seinfeld’s most memorable episodes (see: “The Library”). As a TV director, he skewered his industry with Curb Your Enthusiasm and Entourage. As a filmmaker, he embraced mockumentary with Borat and Brüno. But his latest entry, by his own admission, might be his most unhinged to date. He just released Dicks: The Musical, a hard-r spoof of The Parent Trap featuring telepathic sewer creatures, a disembodied CGI vagina and Megan Thee Stallion walking men on leashes like dogs. “I don’t have a legacy or body of work or anything like that, so I don’t think about stuff like that,” the Dicks director explained on the eve of its Oct. 6 theatrical launch. “I never know what I’m doing next.”

Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" begins with two on-screen titles showing the definitions between fission and fusion. For the layman or average moviegoer, the definitions serve as an explanation about the differences between two ways of achieving nuclear power. They also layout the ways in which the entire film is going to be structured, split in two by color and black-and-white sequences that divide Nolan's epic biography into Oppenheimer's subjective point-of-view and the objective forces swirling around him. The sequences in color paint Oppenheimer as somewhat of a heroic figure that helped this nation win World War II with the creation of the atomic bomb; the black-and-white sections show the famed scientist as a victim of government bureaucracy bullied by a system that no longer needs him.
Serving as the basis for "Oppenheimer," the book "American Prometheus" by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin also begins with a quote. Taken from...

"Avatar: The Last Airbender" ended 15 years ago with "Sozin's Comet," bringing to a close an epic cartoon of unprecedented proportions, a show that still stands the test of time as one of the best stories told in television, regardless of medium and genre — and to think the show was technically not picked up after season 2.
The story of Aang, a young boy and the last surviving member of his nation who is tasked with ending a 100-year-old war before the whole world gets conquered by a genocidal megalomaniac, was like nothing else on TV. This was a cartoon aimed at young audiences that nevertheless touched on themes of grief and change, but also genocide, imperialism, and the effect of war on children. Add in a fleshed-out world, mythology on par with "Lord of the Rings," and some of the best action in a Western animated series and you get a...
