I’ll be honest, even without any of the previous adaptations, I would have 0 desire to watch this.
Why would I want to watch a story that I’ve already seen done better? I can’t think of anything I would change from the original. Even The Divide gets a re-watch every time.
And since the real world is bound by things animation isn’t, there will always need to be changes to the story. Unless the original makers can get unlimited funding, full and absolute control over the end product, and years of preparation time, I genuinely don’t think a live action adaptation can be done.
Give me a live-action show set in the same world, at a different time. Or even the same time but the events of ATLA is background stuff, and MAYBE every so often we see an ATLA character directly. I’d watch that, I think.
I watched the first season. It was fun.
