100 Days - 100 Year War

[finite thunder]

Less than 100 days left till the Live action adaptation, for our first topic we will explore what started it all - The 100 Year War!
In the trailer we see the comet followed by the Air Temples being raided by the Fire Nation. This is the first time we will have a visual look at the Air nomad genocide - What should we expect to see?

Extra : If we look at the screenshot closer, you will see Fire Benders flying through the air to reach the air temples.

[late scaffold]

Well, I hope to see how exactly did Gyatso defeat dozens if not 100 Sozin-steroid firebenders

[eager lantern]

I think it looks stellar

we barely saw anything in the original series, and I think it's one area that expansion on it is sorely deserved

[next idol]

I am excited!

[wheat lion]

me too!!

[severe thistle]

I mean the trailer alread kinda ruined it imo but I'd like to see exactly what it is in the show

[sinful tide]

Flameo m.i.r.u., you just advanced to the rank of Novice!

[severe thistle]

it's always described as the air nomad genocide, I don't need to see the gruelsome parts that come with the murder cause that would idk...ruin the vibe of avatar

but it's after all the end of a entire nation

they got wiped. In the show the temples are seen literally in a blaze

Other than the super strong airnomads it seemed like they got absolutly overrun

RISE AVATAR

I thought it was cool that Gyatso was also narrating , we are probably gonna start the series seeing sozin talking about the comet and then aang being born

Then we’ll probably see his training and his connection with gyatso him finding out hes the avatar and the war, followed by him running away and getting frozen but then we will see the outcome (which is what was supposedly showed in the trailer)

There’s probably a couple other ways that could play out but its just how I picture it in my head

[final summit]

Im very hyped abt this

[cursive zephyr]

I want to see the dragons

Anddd i would prefer if aangs story is told in flashbacks

So I’d still want the opening to be katara and sokka

I think the narration might be Aang recalling the dialogue as opposed to him being the primary narrator of ep 1, but that’s just how my brain perceived that

[stone epoch]

I'm very interested to see how they depict this. I do hope I won't have nightmares from it too

[sturdy sedge]

Someone better edit this chat every day until release

[cursive zephyr]

I think only @/Asan can

[reef prairie]

I like that idea as well

[cursive zephyr]

Just realised i was replying to Asan🤡

[jagged fjord]

i would love to see the opening being kinda different to the one in the original

for me, it's the air nomad genocide and gyatso's fight which could be really intriguing

since the show can dive deeper into the topics that the original could not

While not trying to diminish the power level of the comet. While we did see many skeletons around Gyatso, it should be clear that such a scene is a master Bender against soldiers.

He died the comet's empowerment, not the skill of the soldiers

I hope they keep this in mind

We get to see the monks fight the army, but it should be a quick battle

Having it as an opening sequence will be very tricky, since it needs to establish why Sozins comet is powerful.

If you have firebenders vs airbenders as the first scene, the viewer will have 0 knowledge on how much Sozins comet increases fire power

While it will be epic for existing fans, it won't be grand for new viewers besides seeing it as cool

I hope they show non powered firebending beforehand so people will know just how much the comet impacts

[jagged fjord]

that's a good point

A new thread with a new topic will be posted every 5 days!!

Wanna see how Gyatso takes out those FN soldiers. I know it had to look badass

[final summit]

He will release the forbidden technique 💀

The equivalent of blood bending for 🌊

[finite thunder]

Oh 10000% theres a theory that he sucked all the air out of the room to stop their bending and end them in the process

[final summit]

Excellent point indeed

[young swan]

Something like what Yangchen did to those combustion benders 👀

[final summit]

I love the visuals it looks so good omfg

I feel like it will be the other way around if anything

[finite thunder]

Idk I feel like old, new and unknowing viewers would enjoy the series!! Theyre gonna change enough where its refreshing to the older fans, but not confusing to people that never seen the series before

[reef prairie]

Took the words outta my mouth

[cursive zephyr]

93 days🙇🏾‍♀️

[prime adder]

woah

[young swan]

Think the showrunner also said they wouldn’t make any modern or twist changes just for the sake of it either

[cursive zephyr]
