I had to pick a song from a musical for an assignment in Jay Oliva's Cinematic Storyboard class, and this Hamilton/Avatar board was the result. Instagram: / andymanley

I simply love the line “You have no control Who lives, who dies who tells your story.” It always give me chills in any antimatic incluidng this one. When Iroh does it (1:03), it shows Zuko’s non burned side of his face. In a metaphorical sense, Iroh is telling that to the “good side” of Zuko. The one that is willing to listen to him and not obsessed with retrieving the honor his father took from him. Well done!

Zuko's expression at the end there. 🤣🤣He's just like, "What the Hell, Uncle?!" 🤣🤣 Absolutely beautiful. Couldn't have illustrated Iroh's regrets and message better. It shows his regret for what became of his son, his love for Zuko and his wish that Zuko could get his head out of his butt and see the same light he did. That he wouldn't have to make as many mistakes as Iroh did before learning the truth.

The song fits really well and I love this overall. The fire nation soldiers dancing was kinda funny, which seemed contradictory to the tone of Iroh and Zuko, though? and while Iroh's expressions were impressive, I think they looked a little too angry for his character? also how dare you make me see Iroh finding Lu Ten 😭 But I'm shocked this has so few views. Seems like the sort that would have at least ten times as many if not significantly more.

Honestly, the part where Iroh tells Zuko “I know that greatness lies in you” is such great foreshadowing. Throughout the whole series its clear Iroh knows that Zuko has so much potential, that his nephew can be the one to end a cycle. The one to right the wrongs of his ancestors. And its great foreshadowing to the reveal that Roku is his other great grandfather. To Zuko it would read as his uncle seeing potential in him. And they’re also words he’d need to hear, his own father was terrible and cold to him. Iroh believing in him would heal Zuko, even just a little bit. But its honestly foreshadows the great potential that Zuko himself would’ve never seen, that no one but Iroh would’ve known.

I feel like this could have been a good dream segment for right before Zuko tells his father that he's leaving to join Aang. The only thing I would have added instead of the soldiers dancing they would remove their helmets as they passed to reveal fallen fire nation soldiers like Iroh's son, maybe even a ghost of the previous fire avatar Roku, as the sang and pointed at him before leaving. It would be a good turning point for him deciding to think about just what kind of history he wants to make and how he will be remembered.

I can’t believe this works so well. This feels like a plea for Zuko, now that the Avatar isn’t a wild goose chase to really consider his actions even when he thinks he’s doing the right thing… after all, the right thing is why he’s banished. He tried speaking up for Fire Nation soldier being used as cannon fodder, was accused of the high crime of disrespecting the Firelord. And then when made to fight his father he had too much respect and love for him, but that’s not what his Firelord wanted from him. Hell even reminding him he has no control over his own story is seen numerous times over from book 1 through the comics. His crew in the storm who didn’t even know the non-propaganda version of why Zuko was banished, the earth kingdom village that ran him out of town after essentially freeing them from a gang of earthbending goons, the Gaang needing to be convinced of Zuko’s morality shift, even the Ozai sympathizers in the comics. Everyone has a view of Zuko that’s different in-universe. Even the small stuff like Iroh’s past as a warlord, the dragon of the west, himself to the possible reference to Zuko’s greatness within being his lineage descending from both Sozin AND Roku which Iroh knew. His heritage alone in the time of Sozin’s comet returning is reason enough for history to eye Zuko and I love it.
