I completely agree. You can list the things central to Sokka's character arc very easily, and it would read as a summary of who Sokka is and who he becomes: 1. He's Katara's brother. This is easily his most central relationship. Every episode features this. 2. He's a non-bender attempting to navigate a benders world. 3. He's Comic relief - this is another element present in every episode. 4. He's Hakoda's son, and a warrior. These qualities define his choices. 5. He's Suki's boyfriend/partner. Sokka grows from a boy to a man, during Avatar, and the main way he does is as Suki's boyfriend, as she forces him to grow up. These are the primary elements of Sokka. Sexism doesn't need to be front and center. Great video - liked and subscribed.

What i always thought was interesting about Sokka's sexism in the Kyoshi Island episode is how he immediatety came back to apologize on his knees asking her to train him. That's how you knew that his sexist remarks weren't rooted in actual disrespect for women but his own insecurity about his lacking fighting skills. He wants to be a warrior to feel connected to his dad. I think an actual sexist wouldn't have come around this quickly. His behavior was still shitty, but he redeemed himself in an interesting way. However I don't mind them handling it differently, i'm down for a more thoughtful Sokka when it cones to that 😂

the fact that they say "we took out HOW sexist [Sokka] was" tells me that it was toned down, not removed. All this drama on twitter is giving me a headache.

People just need to wait until the show ACTUALLY comes out like damn

Sokkas ‘sexism’ in the series wasn’t even crazy by all means. And even if he was, who cares? It’s part of his development.

I honestly completely forgot about those few remarks from book 1. There is so much to Sokka. The ones freaking out are the same people that are asking for Toph when she clearly comes in book 2

I feel like there’s a lot rinding on this being good and ANY changes are met with hostility when we gotta see this thing to judge it

Between toning down sexism and calling the show "too Asian", this world we live in today is so backwards. You can never make these people happy.

Even in the podcast the creators talk about how they stand by Sokkas writing but know they could do it different now and still have the same messages behind it. I am so excited to see Sokka, I think a live action show can even deep dive the growth and relationships with other people more and even expand on him which I think the OG couldn't do with limited time

lol yeah I saw that ''controversy''... ''toned down'' might also means being more subtle about it, like actual real life sexism often is

I agree an open mind is needed. I feel like many are so eager to dismiss the series outrightly --whether because of Ian's ethnic background or even from that very Entertainment Weekly KZfaq video, Kiawentiio saying how the OG series' animation doesn't allow for as much expressiveness compared to live acting which some just took as her arrogantly criticizing the source material. I think giving the benefit of the doubt is a proper attitude to seeing what might be a great live action adaptation of the series. If it doesn't meet expectations as Channel Awesome's Doug Walker said, in his real thoughts video on the Shayamalan video, we will still have the original series. Also, there will be many funny reaction videos to look forward to. I do think certain but minor changes are needed for character consistency in the original series, though. Like when Iroh and Zuko send the massive fireball at Appa, Aang, Katara, and Sokka, that is deflected by Aang into the side of a glacier or whatever causing an avalanche that damaged their ship, I think more clearly portraying Iroh as insincerely trying to bring down Aang might have been needed. But if the series does poorly, I hope people don't resort to racism. As funny as I find hate videos for Shayamalan's film, I think the mocking mispronunciations of the director's name are uncalled for and clearly racist. I feel like people will turn on Albert Kim and accuse him of similar favoritism, too, that even the Normies mentioned when discussing how mostly South Asian actors were used for the Fire Nation. I feel like people will see Albert's usage of his daughter as a writer as nepotism and the choice of Lizzy as Azula as that same kind of ethnic favoritism. But all this aside, I can't wait for the series to be released

Thank you for giving your two cents on this whole thing, I can't believe that people are this angry and butt hurt over one change.Just because they reduct his sexism arc doesn't mean Sokka is not dealing with other stuff.

I think there’s are a lot of ways to develop a character that don’t have to involve that character being prejudice. I understand that it was a big thing for book 1 Sokka in the original but there were more interesting things about his character that the live-action can focus on if they don’t feel comfortable with the sexism thing. Master Paku’s sexism however, that should be kept.

people make too much fuss about this change. personally i dont really care that much about it since Sokka grows from his sexism in episode 4 of the cartoon which would be ep 2 for the live action. yea it could've been fun seeing him make fun of katara and other girls briefly but it dosen't matter in the grand scale it's really not a big deal

People don't understand that copying 1:1 from a cartoon won't translate well to real life. One part of the fandom wants an exact copy of the cartoon, another part wants a whole new thing. You really can't please all these people. They will always find things they can shit on 🤷‍♀️ Btw thanks for being part of the fandom that's still radiating positive energy. You're doing tonnes for the fandom!

Rather than sexism, Sokka showed his insecurities through sexism. But the beautiful thing about it is that he was able to redeem himself. He was able to find his confidence and give more appreciation to women because of the Kyoshi warriors. Even going out of his way to put on face paint and dress as a Kyoshi warrior.

Thanks for the shoutout! That was really nice of you! So glad you made a video on this, as it’s a pretty different perspective I haven’t heard vocalized yet! I don’t think it’s the biggest deal because like you said, there’s other important arcs that he goes through that build his character to be amazing. It’s not like he’s a nothing character anymore if they truly don’t make him have any sexist dialogue. But only time will tell if they really mess him up!

Even though this is come out, I still don’t mind it if they don’t have it I have the original to watch for that. If they do something else then I’m fine with it but I see so many people on KZfaq and Twitter crying about it saying it’s a character assassination it’s like come on I’m still very excited Can’t wait for February 22. We are so close

This change is insignificant at best. Doesn’t mean much to me. As long as they keep his more cheerful and comedic qualities I’m fine! Thanks for the video man

I saw it as a written character flaw that added to his story arc. I'm very much looking forward to seeing how they have "toned down" that part of his personality. It wasn't a major component of it but it was a part that "fleshed out" his character, and one of the points that highlighted his growth and development. I just hope that he does not come across as a cutout, but maintains his place in Team Avatar.

I think its fine as long as sokka gets a new and interesting story orc

6:27 And this is exactly why I subscribed to your channel choom you really Stand on business with it comes to factual information about this show other channel are simply opportunist. That knows nothing about the TV show or the story.👍🏾

All that I care about is that he has a growth arc, and they do Sokka’s Master episode major justice

I like him, despite the hit and misses, he pretty much nails Sokka. As funny and entertaining Sokka in the original animated series, he too was pretty much hit and miss imo

I totally agree with you! Many videos are expressing very negative interpretations of every detail that comes out of the series. Guys, this is not a fan thing. One thing is to question this or that news, another is to assume that something is bad, and make a video as if this were an absolute truth. This type of video damages the series, and we, as fans, have to support it, not boycott it. The other day I saw a video where the person says that a certain change will ruin the whole series...like...WTF? Are you basing the entire experience on the rumor of a plot change? What if the change is to bring more meaning to the story? What if it is needed to transport a Cartoon into a live action? Anyway... For me, this is a hater thing... You make videos announcing a negative view of everything you see about the series...

yea ive seen this all over social media, people acting like they are changing Sokka for Winnie the pooh or something. As you mentioned those sexist remarks in the show are just a few

Having them tone it down is way better than removing it completely Thank You for speaking on grifter culture I applaud you sir

The reason people are annoyed at this, me included, is that while the remarks were very minute it was still one of the major things that triggered his maturity and growth. Another reason why im annoyed is because of they do this to sokka's relatively small amount of sexism i dont wanna know how much theyre changing in the northern water tribe. Because katara showing up trying to be a warrior instead of just a healer is what triggered a massive change in the northern water tribe. I am now worried that they will water down the sexism of the northern water tribe which is a world building point troggered by katara

Part of his arc was getting past the arrogance/sexism. That’s a while part of the show and not inappropriate at all in the original

if Sokka's sexist comments is the only thing people remember of his character, they missed a HUGE chunk of the show! good gosh!!

Honestly I’m not stress about this change about Sokka. Im actually looking toward these changes.

There's plenty of room for character growth for Sokka without adding the sexist stuff that changes fairly early on anyway.

I love Danny Pudi, the actor playing the Mechanist. He was in one of my favorite shows called Community. I can tell you unless the actor is playing against type. The character should be very , funny,weird and smart.

I wanna see cabbage merchant reveal!

There's a reason for Sokka's remarks about women in the show. It shows where he was ideologically before meeting and having journeys with Aang to his growth during and throughout all the journeys. It's important.

Heads up: the actors didn't say "tone down", the exact quote is different..

Twitter's punching bag. Leave this man alone!

Sokka swallowing his pride and overcoming is sexism on Kyoshi Island is kind of like the biggest aspect of his character development in book 1. Hopefully all they mean is that his comments prior are toned down, and he still gets to learn the lesson he does in the anime.

Okay I am loving the water tribe garb, especially the wide leather belts and I agree with you on the whole issue and Sokka's character growth. He's a child, from a tiny tribe where he is the eldest of a very small male population do to the men being away. The woman he's been exposed to in his life have certain roles and men have other roles in this fictional water tribe culture. That's his world. Once he gets some life experience and exposure to other cultures and different gender roles he begins to understand and grow. 💜

My theory of why they took out the sexism is because the comedic beat was what made sokka likeable despite his opinions. So, for example, the opening scene. I did NOT like Sokka at all for the first few minutes because of the way he was treating Katara. Until the whole quip with "this is Appa, my flying bison.- Right. And this is Katara , my flying sister" where then Appa proceeds to sneeze on him, and Sokka hilariously rubs himself against the snow. You can’t imitate that in live action because the comedy of it is in how exaggerated the reaction is. Sokka always has something like that happen to him. Every time he's a lil whiny brick (and especially when he's trying to be a ladies man or undermine a woman), some power of the universe comes down on him and his reactions work because they are animated to look over the top. I am sure we will still get a lot of comedy and clutch-my-pearls moments from him. But between how difficult it is to portray that comedic beat onto the screen, and the fact that you can only make a first impression once, I can understand why the showrunners chose to drop that aspect. Sexism isn't as overlooked as it was in 2007, even if back then, Bryke purposefully made Sokka sexist to put him in his place. It simply would be too risky to gamble on his likeability with the new audiences when you have such little space to not only make a good impression, but to write a coherent, believable episode.

Thank you!!!! We haven’t even seen the shoe yet, but ppl complaining. I get it! We have a bad taste in our mouths from the movie, but this looks WAY better than the movie. You just earned a subscriber my boi

Agree 100% with you on Sokka.

Anyone who remembers the episodes would know that sokka's sexism was toned up so much for almost comedic effect, to the point of just being childish. Theres no way they can translate that level to live action without it coming off painfully forced

Lol the whole sexist stuff is so dumb. Sokka is about strength and weakness. Sokka in the beginning saw strength as male and female. Because his southern water tribe is so small, and most men went for war and woman and children were left to protect the base. Hence he felt strong being the only male left behind But as sokka travels with benders and learn that strength is not just male and female. He realised he was the weakest member in terms of power and not the warrior he thought he was. He was weak. But thats where he found a sword master and learnt that strength is not all about power as well. Sokka in general is such a growing character and a very important character. He isnt just about strength and weakness but his dynamic as a leader in the group how he links strength to not just things he can analyze and quantify. Its his humour his leadership his quick thinking and his strong mindset that makes him strong. Sexist sokka is THE LEAST of a true avatar fan concern.

Keep up the good work my man

I'm pretty sure they just toned down Sokkas sexism. But also, I don't see why it's such a big deal, cause it was a good arc but it was already extremely short. Took the first 4 episodes and it was already over almost entirely

I can't stand how the community goes into an uproar at every single comment made, like, even if they were really changing his whole arc with suki this season, that would still be a minor change in the scheme of things. And we know they aren't. We have ample evidence that their story will be nearly identical involve training, hints of romance, and him wearing and fighting in their armor, we can easily get all that from the trailers and clips. People need to chill out and not take every comment as if it were the end all be all of whether the show will be good or not.

I did feel that seeing Sokka start as a sexist kid and quickly move to a more enlightened view, but it is a small bit of his start and not a big enough issue to bother me. This issue does, however, bring up an important point. Anybody who thinks that this should be the same, line by line and scene by scene, is really missing the point of doing a live action version of the show. First, some things that work fine in animation do not work the same in live action, so they need to be changed in some way. Second, since animated characters only age when the animators want them to age and live actors age whether it is convenient or not, you need to adjust for actual age over the length of the series. Third, if it is going to be an exact copy, then it isn't worth doing - we already have the original, how would a one to one copy be worth doing? What one should be looking for is a show that honours the spirit, mood and concept of the original. Yes, that includes doing some of the same scenes, though even there, if you play out the exact events but change the point of view, you get something new and yet the same. This is what makes a live action worth the effort to do. Maybe includes some bits we heard mention of but never saw, maybe show us something from the perspective of different character or just cut the scene differently. Even doing things like taking elements of two different scenes and combine them to create a new scene.

I think it's also important to keep in mind that the sexism that Sokka was portraying was more prevalent when atla first came out compared to today.

Its not about his remarks, it's about his outlook. With all of the southern waterbenders killed or captured (besides Katara obv), there are no female fighters. And with all of the other older men leaving for the war, he was left as “the man of the tribe”. So with that isolation and upbringing, all he knows is “women do X things, and men do Y things”. And of course that kind of position would go to his head. After he leaves the familiarity of his home, he comes to experience the world. And when he starts thinking with a more open mind, thats when his best traits start to blossom.

I am so with you on You Tube upholding the "Don't Recommend Channel" thing. The number of times I've clicked on this, and yet I still see videos from those channels.

even we only got to see the back of his head and hear his voice I am SO excited to see Danny Pudi as the Mechanist! I’m a HUGE fan of Community and can’t wait to see how Danny brings the Mechanist to life

Having the Mechanist played by Abed is the best choice ever

congrats on 1k

Sokka only had sexist remarks just a few times. Mostly in Kioshi island. It does not define his personality, so the show would be completely fine without those few lines. Sokka is funny and intelligent, everyone depends on his brain, he's great at planning stuff.

What a brilliant channel I just stumbled upon! Sometimes, very rarely, KZfaq's algorithm works wonders. On the topic of the video, I am 100% with you on keeping an open mind when approaching a new piece of media, especially when it's an adaptation, even more so when it's such a highly anticipated one that's already been put under the microscope. Nevertheless, I am a little concerned that watering down Sokka's sexism may take away from his character development, in the sense that if we don't see him being _as_ sexist as he was in the first few episodes of the show, then him being respectful and learning from a girl may not be as worth it. It's far from being a deal breaker for me, it's just something I'll keep an eye out for while watching. Similarly to how I'm curious to see how they're going to handle Zuko's backstory. I'm excited to see all the Fire Nation bits, but I also think that Zuko needs to appear as a villain first in order for his redemption later to have an impact, and there's a chance they're going to go with the anti-hero route from the beginning if they show too much of his past from the get-go. But once again, not a deal breaker in any way, just something I'll notice while watching.

we have to realise sokkas character is the hardest cause he's a comedian. but I won't have the same feel in the movie cause the animated just suits more

I feel like as long as they don't completely undercut Sokka's character growth on Kyoshi Island it'll be pretty satisfactory. There really isn't much opportunity for him to grow in Season 1 otherwise, as the lack of casting info for Bato seems to suggest that his character's been cut and thus we won't see Sokka's rite of passage.

I think toned down is the key. I always felt it was a little heavy handed and came out of nowhere in season one. However, if given that the men went to war and what we see in the northern water tribe, he had a women can't be warriora belief from the start it would be consistent, but not so heavy handed.

I'm of the team "I want to buy a full box of chill pills and give it to everyone in the fandom". Like, really. Chill. It was a throaway comment from one of the actors, not something the writers themselves delved deeply into, certainly not something the writers "bragged" about (as I've seen some people say). And again, the article talks about it in the idea of "making things more grounded" with the characters and their storylines, and "toning down" Sokka's sexism, not erasing it. Obviously Sokka's sexism in the cartoon needs to be toned down in a live action: Sokka's snarky remarks are used as COMIC relief, through ridicule and/or just gags embellished by "womp womp" like music etc. Of course it also serves a purpose, but "toning it down" might just mean keeping the idea that it serves the purpose, without turning LA!Sokka into an incel by making him have the same remarks than in the cartoon. In the cartoon, it works because it's a cartoon. It relies on music, drawing, effects to be comical, things a live adaptation doesn't have. Let's wait and see, it's chill, and maybe Sokka not being sexist but just purely prideful towards Suki (yknow, "Macho man" type of thing) can actually be interesting enough to explore as well. Like, idk what's so precious to "fans" about Sokka dismissing his sister as a maid on ep1. 🤷‍♀

Congratulations on the subs!

great vid, love ur attitude towards clickbait meta on youtube, i do think sokkas sexism is needed especially during the kioshi parts, but toned down should be fine, we'll see tho, cautiously excited

I really don’t think the sexiest side of Sokka was the most important part of his character development either. They’ll probably throw the line he says in the beginning to get Katara mad. And he’ll probably say something to Suki and the warriors. That was never that big of a trait for Sokka.

Here's the thing. Everyone so badly wants this adaptation to be good. So any change that they make, people want them to justify why they've made that decision. If it's because of timing, budget, flow of the story, cutting other elements because they want to flesh out a scene that was only hinted at in the cartoon, that's all fine and well. The only thing is the decision can't seem like "we want to make this decision because it's 2024 and look at how progressive we are". That's not a good reason to change things.

As long as “a little bit” truly meant just a small percentage. A big part of an episode is Suki proving Sokka wrong. The sexist remarks are important for that reason, as well as for comedy, and for an accurate depiction of what that time period would be like.

I could understand moving away from Sokka having an arc about becoming more open minded toward others, but the reasoning behind it, as if it's inclusion at all makes him or the show itself flatly sexist, and the way they try to frame the removal of this character arc for Sokka, as in and of itself, an improvement to the show as opposed to just a different take, kinda bugs me.

Thank you. It's a 2 episode arc in a 20 episode season that they aren't even necessarily removing. I'd be a bit more concerned if they changed the northern water tribe sexism and even then -- I'm not a writer and I've never seriously studied character writing through years of schooling unlike the showrunners of this upcoming adaptation. People are looking for reasons to judge something just to have something to be upset with.

I mean, the original was a cartoon; it’s a lot easier to portray characters as over the top or in a more stereotypical way in an animated medium. This version is going to be live action, obviously, and I suppose it will be ever more slightly “grounded” than the original. This change doesn’t seem like to big of a deal to me.

it feels like its done for the wrong reasons, thats whats annoying

My thoughts are that Netflix probably wanted to tone down the idea that indigenous groups are misogynistic. I don't really think it's even about Sokka but moreso the mindset of the culture, I don't think they want to present indigenous people that way. Just my opinion

Honestly, people can sometimes be so weird. The show has not even come out and they are already passing judgement. Toning down sexism does not mean removing it. He was sexist initially but no one wants to be introduced to one of the main character with extreme misogyny. In anime, it comes across, a little goofy (coz of how extreme their expression are) but in live action it would come across very poorly. Not to mention, his misogyny last like 5 eps!! After meeting Kiyoshi warrior, he almost had an instant change in his attitude which won't show well in the setting of live action. It would be more understandable if he makes sexist comment here and there and later learns his lesson from the Kiyoshi warrior and starts changing his attitude!

Appreciate your calm perspective. I think the quote has been taken out of context. I'll wait and see.

I'm hopeful that this show will at least do the OG series justice, to justify the reason their making it in live action, I want to see it okay out through the storytelling, I want to see some amazing combat sequences, no hand to hand stuff like the movie that shall not be named, pure bending and well choreographed fights, no quick cuts, just fluid, fast paced, awesome bending fights, and most importantly, don't show Azula or Ozai to much. 🙏🏾💯

I've seen some of these YT videos w/ critical points on this so called controversy and their comment sections are generally outrageous. While some of them have good points, I need to see myself the actual show. If they really change some things, I think Netflix is doing this to minimize or completely remove controversial elements (no pun intended) such as feminism. It wasn't too big of a deal in the past, but the times now are changing. Knowing Netflix and the kind of shows they did in the past, it may also be the complete opposite. Will see how they execute the story...

The only thing I am concerned with this show is it doing its counterpart justice, I personally just pray that Ian did not lie about his ethnicity for the role. I know it might not seem so important to others, but personally as a person of indigenous descent, it sorta just sours myself to see roles with characters that were very blatantly based off the Inuit and such to be passed off to yet white people once more when I know for fact so many indigenous actors and actresses would be screaming and fighting to be able to play our heroes. Seeing indigenous characters [ even if it was just a fantasy nation ] on screen when I was young where their culture was just something so important was so important to me. When I heard we might get actual indigenous actors and actresses for the Water Tribe I was overjoyed for it before I heard that might not even be the case for Ian. I believe one of the things that had been pointed out was that someone looked and he apparently wasn't registered with the tribe which I am taking with a grain of salt. I personally hadn't been registered until recently, but yada yada. You get the deal. He can still be indigenous, do you know the amount of time some of these tribes get to get yourself registered, it took me over a year of nonstop calling to the tribal office to get myself on it.

Honestly taking out how sexist sokka is isnt a big deal. Its not an integral part of his character, he is that way for a few episodes thats it then he gets humbled and learns. While it is good character development its not crucial they can have some other development instead

Where are you finding these character shorts? I'd like to watch them myself, but i can't seem to find them on KZfaq.

Hey, where do you see those clips? I want to see them as well, im so hyped!

Where can I watch these reveal trailers

Can people just try to “be happy” or be “excited”- about something as amazing* as this!!! -I don’t know - could it be they are not original fans from the beginning- because if they were, then they would be super excited and overjoyed (as the majority of us are),,,, and be patient and give this series time to be released ., - watch it and digest it,,,, THEN - comment on what was actually created and happened on the big screen for real….. don’t just talk crap and nonsense just for the sake of talking. - none of us have any right to say anything negative after watching a few trailers-- because we have no idea what the creators and directors have up their sleeves ….. SO, everyone needs to just kick back,,, have a cup or two of some delicious *Jasmine Tea”…, and enjoy, ((more importantly - ALLOW US *Real Fans *something that most of us have waited over 10**** YEAES - TO FINALLY HAVE COME TO THE BIG SCREEN , ENJOY 🎉🎉”!! ))!!!!

You right my man I do the same thing it looks very good I still watch it no matter what I saw the animation one when I was in middle school I'm 31 and this year I'm turning 32 it a great show when I first watch it

Lets also not forget that their tribe has clear gender roles. The men left to fight, the women were the healers. Lets also not forget Katara's training and why the master wouldnt teach her. Toning it down is fine, but in some cases, like the ones mention before, they dont need to be that toned down. Imo

I think Sokkas remarks about women were not bad at all and showed his humorous side, but am not surprised given the landscape. That being said, I desperately hope they do not shove any agendas into the show including about women that weren't already there to begin with. The og show lightly used some of these themes, but it wasn''t forced and the females in the show were awesome inherently, not because of their sex.

He has the same smile as Walter White's son.

Let's wait to see if they removed scenes entirely or just toned down certain dialogue. Still excited

To be honest, most of the sexist remarks have little impact on the story than winding up his sister, which can be done in otherways. the only part of it that is relivent is the Kyoshi Island stuff, which is handled very well in episode anyway with him learning from it. so if they cut the other stuff but kept the Flavour of Kyoshi island stuff then i cant see toning down the sexism as a problem, its not like his character is the meat and sexism guy.

It only became a thing on twitter cause people were looking for something to discredit the show. Also I saw a lot of accounts who had never posted about the show before have an opinion cause it was popular

Where are these short videos being posted? I can’t find them anywhere.

It’s honestly a nothing burger even with the little valid criticism about it, I find people who are upset about this just want to find something to be mad about and anything that is slightly different.

To me it's a bit of a shame, generally sexist scenes feel very shoehorned in, while in Avatar it fits right in and Sokka's reaction in humbly apologizing and asking for help is great.

Man im so of seeing these videos of people bitching about it. Im sorry but Sokka's sexism was the weakest writing of all the characters. Like theres other ways to show us that Sokka was a prideful, arrogant warrior who need humbling

they dont need to "sanitize" sokka for a modern audience. atla was progressive as it is already? he grows out of his misogyny, he gets humbled, he gets a character arc out of it. really bizarre choice for me

I just I just hope they kept his goofiness in there

where can i see these clips

It is possible that they removed the whole northern air temple episode, they might just refer to it. But I am thinking that they might just change WHEN it happens. Instead of having it right at the end, they could put it just before the Omashu trip, then they lead the mechanist and his refugees to Omashu as a place for them to escape to. The shot in the trailer looks like them maybe arriving in Omashu

I feel like Sokka was definitely sexist at the start - but characters need mistakes to grow from, and grow he did. In the end he is a dude who chugs respect women juice by the gallon! That wouldn’t have hit as hard if he hadn’t started out as casually sexist (not just the kyoshi island storyline but also him expecting Katara to repair his pants and basically mother him).

Yeah I don't really remember seeing him as sexist. More so as a metaphor for opening your eyes and seeing the value of everything and everyone. But hey some people are stuck on the negatives.

Although I am looking for the Netflix last Airbender avatar series. We have to keep in mind that the Animated series was lightning in a bottle. They made magic with that animated series. I sincerely doubt they can re-create the same type of magic in a live Netflix series. Sokka being a little bit of male chauvinist is a part of his journey. Although never a great attribute to have. Yet Sokka grows in wisdom and insight. As well as his abilities as a leader and a strategist. Not to say that they could not give sokka other personality traits in the show. That developed him into a young man and a leader. But with that change,, will they now make Sokka a Simp? That is a popular thing to do with male characters these days and entertainment. Which makes me wonder,, if they change sokka,, do they change the extreme racism that exist within the show as well? Many of the characters in the show,, are racist towards the fire nation. The fire nation is extremely racist against everyone. How do they take that element out of the show? But as you can see,, they are already tearing apart the characters from the animated series. To fit today’s social political issues. Which has been happening quite frequently in modern entertainment. writers tend to keep doing this every movie and TV show we watch these days. so I don’t have much faith in this new live action avatar. But I will keep my fingers crossed. If it doesn’t start acting right early, though,, I will just stop watching the series. Just like I stop watching marvel movies.

Where can we watch these new scenes??

WHERE ARE THE CLIPS FROM
