    That’s his point though. We grew up with both Avatars and when talking about it by name, many people think of the animation.

    The very thing you are saying won’t happen for 50 years is happening with that show.

      Yeah ATLA was primarily aimed at kids and teens, so obviously today it’d be talked by them more.

      Avatar is the antithesis to every “popular” movie. The hero isn’t a single man-child who quips all the time, he’s a crippled guy with a family, serious and sincere.
