5.0 out of 5 stars adults will love it as much as their kids!, April 13, 2008

This review is from: Avatar the Last Airbender - Book 3 Fire, Vol. 3 (DVD)

Avatar is exceptionally written, perhaps the best animated series ever to air in America. It's so good that acclaimed Director, M. NIGHT SHYAMALAN,(The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs, The Village, The Happening) called it, "The coolest mythology I've ever seen," and put his own screenwriting on hold to spend the next six years producing/directing a BIG-SCREEN LIVE-ACTION TRILOGY of this story.

Adults may find the occasional comic relief a bit cheesy, but will love the character development, psychological depth, mythos, realistic martial arts, "special effects", and the excellent insights into Asian philosophy, sociology, and mythology, and even politics. I've been studying Asian culture and philosophy and teaching in Asia for years and I've gained insights from this series because the writers have found ways to introduce and explain Asian thought so simply that even kids can "get it". Ideas like chakras, Daoism, and Chinese philosophy of the balance and properties of the natural Elements are brought to life and illustrated in the characters lives, situations, and cultural settings. I bought this to watch my nephews (though I often watch it when they're not here too) and I think it's awesome because as they grow up in an increasingly Asian world, I think what they were exposed to in this show will make Asian culture (Chinese, Tibetan, Japanese, Indian, Korean) much more accessible and comprehensible to them than it was to me when I studied it.

Don't the the animation fool you, this series is a myth of exceptional crafting, on par with STAR WARS and LORD OF THE RINGS.

Mesmerizingly ENTERTAINING and uniquely EDUCATIONAL! With or without kids, you'll LOVE it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Avatar Is Awesome, February 21, 2008

This review is from: Avatar the Last Airbender - Book 3 Fire, Vol. 3 (DVD)

I love this series. I like the fact that the movements are real, I like the fact that each "little bit" of information has a bigger role than what it seems. The consistancy is just as awesome. I am a anime fan, an although this show has it's similarities to one its completely different. But it's not like some other american animated series' either, that never has an end, and almost each episode stands on its own. The story line is quite different. It has it's complexities of an anime, but the fun and jokes are absolutely western style. Well I hope this helps out the next customer interested. Oh by the way....they are going to make a live action movie... I hope it's just as awesome.

5.0 out of 5 stars Avatar Book (Season) 3 Rocks, June 23, 2008

This review is from: Avatar the Last Airbender - Book 3 Fire, Vol. 3 (DVD)

My entire family has been watching 2-3 episodes of Avatar everynight. It is great family fun for the summer, and as much as we all enjoy talking about the story, the character development and the choices they make take center stage. How to choose between good and evil, between your own interest and helping your friends (or strangers for that matter), between your feelings and your values: This is what sets Avatar apart from ordinary conventional cartoons. The end of "The Boiling Rock, Pt. 2" just blew us away.

That said, we are all screaming in agony over having to wait until the end of July to see how things turn out. In the meanwhile, we're going back to Book One and watch from the very beginning.
