Anti-woke people are truly the weakest people alive. Wait until I tell them there's a loved adaptation of Hercules where Hades talks like a scummy lawyer, Zeus is good, and the story is told by black gospel singers, one of whom is thicc and gets some of the best lines.

>It says Adult Swim in the corner, you idiot. > Superman and his friends aren't right-wing psychopaths who spend their entire days obsessing over fake moral panics. > Superman is about love, intelligence, kindness, empathy, and being a good person. It was never yours.

A huge problem with the Netlix remake is that at every point they refuse to engage with the heart and soul of what makes these characters interesting and subversive for a fantasy story just for another boring action scene. Zuko refusing to fight at all is CENTRAL for his story.

People demanding an ultra traditionally masculine Adam or He-Man need to realize the ongoing theme of his bond with Teela is that he's a blonde cutie patootie while his hot redhead top of a gf is always annoyed by his antics.

I remember seeing an analysis sating the reason why Doug Walker's criticism of Hercules falls flat is that the seemingly odd choices for an animated adaptation of Greek mythology allow for some insanely vibrant and expressive scenes & edits that can only really work in animation.

My mother would always requote this because she found it so hilarious.

I always thought the Avatar franchise sort of struggled with its thematic consistency of how it frames the Avatar state considering how Kyoshi and Roku used it to save countless lives. I think the answer lies in the fact the Avatar State is destructive for Aang specifically.

Uh buddy...Lion Turtles just gave humans the ABILITY to bend. After humans got the ability to bend, the animals taught them HOW to do it. What you want is still canon and isn't refuted by the Lion Turtle. Maybe try giving the show a rewatch. Or a first watch.

Anti-woke people often like to claim shows that "indoctrinate kids" only happened after 2014 but my generation grew up being taught even if you're not a violent imperialist, destroying the culture of a group that was nearly wiped out is still horrible to do. Then there's this:

Always gonna remember that after constant whining that villains are too sympathetic these days, anti-woke Twitter wanted Belos to be written more sympathetically and thought him going out like a total loser was bad writing. Imagine thinking this wasn't satisfying as hell.

Whenever a new season drops the usual stupid backlash that started a few years ago when anti-woke people found out Lois Lane would be a tomboy and that writers from She-Ra are working on it comes back, and personally, like She-Ra, how can anybody genuinely be mad at this show?

Gotta love how when these posers move the goalposts and describe how Katara would have been with "modern writers" they end up just describing Toph in the same show. Bossy attitude, wins every fight, becomes the greatest earthbender in the world by twelve, and unapologetic in it.

I want to point out how in this same episode, before Aang finds Koh, he's greeted by a grumpy baboon spirit who just wants to be left alone and the fact Aang is bothering him is played for a laugh. Whoever thinks spirits shouldn't be hardcore AND more chill never saw the show.
