Fun fact I found out that Ming in this episode is Serena Williams 😊 pretty cool

Lewis Herriett

The fact that fire lord Ozai hid like a pussy is great. Shows how scared he is of every other nation

Naggo

didnt know you havnt watched lotr ?!! excited to see that one

Matt McNeill

Avatar Wednesdays are my favorite

Alex

I hope you bringing up lord of the rings means you'll be reacting to them soon 😆

If you JUST mean LOTR trilogy movie verses the four seasons of ATLA, I'd lean ATLA (which is not surprising since the LOTR movies are an adaption and so lose some of the story's full impact vs ATLA show which was the original content). But if you mean the whole of the LOTR verse, including movies and books and lore vs all of ATLA including LOK, comics, etc....then comparing gets a little trickier. LOTR lore is definately more immersive and complex, but ATLA has such strong character development across the board.

Scottie

Ok, that's not fair. Avatar or LOTR? In terms of shows, Avatar is probably my all-time favorite, right beside Ron Moores Battlestar Galactica. But for movies, Lord of the Rings have been my favorite since 2001. Avatar = better story And character arcs. LOTR = better world. Basically the blueprint for all modern fantasy to this date. But they're both incredible in different ways but not better than the other. It's like comparing pizza to chicken wings.

I always wanted to know but didn't know where I would start. Thank you so much for this information!

Michael

Interesting how in a show this kids friendly, a death of unnamed characters has to be mentioned as something very big

MikeyB!

Alexxx... I thought this was Patreon, not OF... Lmao. Nah, but seriously, loving the ride so far. ATLA is a comfort show for me, and I LOVE watching reactors react to it. Dude, it's been so fun. Keep up the good work. PEACE!

Michael Shelton

I agree, like when zuko was talking to the fire lord and he totally missed the bit about his uncle because he was going on about something else. If anything save that for a post episode discussion when it's something that's going to be long and drawn out. Especially when there is dialogue happening that he said was going to be epic and then decided to talk through the epic-ness lol. I love him to death, but there have been some movies and episodes of shows that I have nearly gone hoarse from yelling, "Shut up alex! You'remissing it!" ... probably a good thing that I live alone Lol

Michael

I knew uncle Iroh sounded different, I only just looked up that it was because it was a VA change because the first one passed away…

Kelby Farley

😂 that face after you jumped up, priceless! Was a bad ass scene. 🤣🤣 Love your reactions and excitement for this show and all of your reactions really. Keep up the amazing job! And maybe have a pillow on your lap just in case next time? 😅🤣🙈

Nick Hope

Alex, I'm begging you, please pause the video when you want to talk about something going on in the show. These remaining episodes have some AMAZING bits of dialogue and fight scenes that you don't want to miss. Loving the reactions otherwise though <3

Danny Ramirez

For Aang, the Avatar state was triggered by a high state of emotions, whether it was mad, sad or a sense of danger or pain. It wasn't just anger.

Danny Ramirez

its soo infuriating 😂😂

Mad Lad Wizard

i want a fan fic where the hillbilly swamp dudes 3varmy the fire nation after the bombs fall. they dont know the plan is surrender so id love a fan fic or fan comic of swamp benders kicking ass lol

Nightmareman99

Damn Alex this is the most stressed Ive ever seen you in a reaction😂😂😂 But on the topic of Zuko’s mother sadly you won’t learn anything else about it in the show. It is concluded in the comics as well as explaining what actually happened. Spoilers for the comics Zuko’s mom, Ursa, was forcefully taken from her village and made to marry Ozai because she has the blood of avatar roku. That night she disappeared from Zuko’s life. she made a deal with Ozai to poison the previous fire lord so he can take his place. In exchange Zuko can live but she must never return. In the comic she meets the Mother of Faces (mother of koh the face stealer), whom she makes a deal with. The mother of faces changed Ursa’s face and gives her new memories because she couldn’t live with the pain of never seeing her children again. She returns to her old village and gets back together with her old lover from before she was taken. Light spoilers for later episodes Years later after the shows end Zuko learns of all of this and tracks down his mother. Learning that he now has a half sister Kiyi. Ursa regains her memories from the mother of faces and Zuko welcomes her and their new family back into the fire nation palace

Mo Ma

Imagine Azula learned Chi Blocking from Ty Lee. She would be even crazier then. That would be insane.

MP36BRAVO

I would argue that Azula's use of the Dai Lei agents isn't a sign of cowardess but intead resourcefulness; Azula doesn't need to be the avatar to have two elements in her favor.

Daisy Azuras

Did Alex notice that Zuko used uncle Iroh’s lightning redirect technique against his dad?

Daisy Azuras

Alex keeps forgetting that there is no avatar state ever since he got struck by lightning that chakra was closed

Mo Ma

It's kinda funny that almost every person or reactor who watched this episodes forgot that Azula knew of the Invasion and eclipse for months, back when the earth king spilled the beans lol. Shows how great the show is at hyping you up, shifting the focus, and that so much awesome things happen that almost let's you forget minor but still impactfull details

X̲e̲n̲l̲o̲

these are the best

MP36BRAVO

I love that Aang literally explains this, and then Toph followed by Alex didn't pay attention haha. "Just piss him off," I immediately paused and came to the comments. He and Toph are too similar haha.

jace Z

Bro he was literally paying attention and reacted to it

Trent Tellier

Not us getting another underwear shot 🤣 this is such a good reaction series, and what an incredible episode!

DarnedStingray8

Didn't he say recently that he doesn't wear pants in half of his reactions? In that case, he didn't forget to put pants on, he remembered not to XD

ConfusedGoblin

I fucking love these reactions!!! Becoming a patereon is worth It!🧡

TacoMonsterNick

This was the first time I actually yelled at the screen to tell you to pay attention cuz of your rambling when Zuko used Uncle Iroh's redirect lighting move against the Fire Lord.

Dallon Slaughter

Alex please if you have a lot to say just pause it. You miss very important dialogue when you talk over it then you’re confused later.

maliemoment

In terms of story….. avatar (please don’t kill me y’all) but in terms of world/lore idk I’d probably have to say LOTR. I haven’t watched it in a verrrry long time tho so I’m going off feelings over here more than memory 😅

Alexis Plummer

I laughed soo hard when you got up. Man forgot to put on his pants today XD

MyRottenSold1er

Ming was played by tennis legend Serena Williams!

colton Lem

MY EYES Alex please remain seated at all times

Breezybaby

I think my favorite part was Alex forgetting he didn't have pants on and almost flashed us, I haven't laughed that hard in so long 🤣🤣

Carmen Yeatts

So, Aang is actually unable to go into the Avatar State because when Azula shot him down in the season 2 finale, it locked his chakra, which makes him not able to do it.

Red powers

Aang getting mad isn't how the Avatar State works. Azula knew about the invasion you know since she disguised herself as The Kyoshi Warriors? Also I feel for Aang because he feels like he let the world down twice now.

Lucky

I love the Avatar Wednesdays!

Mart Raven

Wednesday is easily the favorite day of my week too, all because of you and this react series man

colton Lem

Him getting mad isn't how the avatar state works if he can't get the chakra he can't grt the avatar state

Guy

Red undies for the win! I haven't laughed that hard in a long time!

Arkadiusz Bień

For the last few weeks wednesday was my favorite day of the week. Even tho I watched Avatar like 4 times already in my life, I am gladly enjoying it every week
