First things first major rant! For all males (sluggmunki_tx, trendy131, sly4me, even you too oh great pooldude even though I love you all), if you are the last in the bathroom please replace the toilet tissue! It's not too much to ask, and a big pain in the @#$ when us ladies find out too late there's no tissue there. I can deal with the seat being up or down, years of disgusting public bathrooms have helped girls deal with this, but please replace the tissue. Thank you for letting me vent.

Now, I asked this on another thread, but I'll post it here too. I love the anime for atla, but do you think it'd be as popular if it were set the exact same jst live action? I mean same time period, animals, costumes, bending, etc... just with actors instead of animation?

It could possibly be good, but I fear the "Western" public may not look too kindly on it if most of the actors look Pacific-Islander or East-Asian.

True, but if it had good actors and great martial arts would that matter?

That's a great word for it. See guys only have to worry about tp 50% of the time in the bathroom, girls on the other hand 100%. So do they think about that as they use the last square? NO! Do they laugh as you tell them to remember to refill? Yes! Boys suck right now.

I can't really picture it as live action, but that would be cool.

And about the other thing, all I can say is, Not guilty.

I guess from a girl's stand point it doesn't matter.

Next question. If the epsiode guides show that Aang and the gang don't know that Azula is Zuko's sister, how did they every know who Zuko was? If Katara/Sokka knew who the prince of the fire nation was, shouldn't they know the princess?

Phoebe Cates (Princess Caraboo) as Kyoshi (flashback/backstory, of course).

They didn't know anything about Zuko until Aang told them (during down time).

The cine-manga specifically states that firebenders lose their powers during solar eclipses. So, I guess waterbenders would be stronger, assuming there was some water around to bend.

Whoa... another hint that I'm way too obsessed with Avatar... I'm citing cine-manga like it's Groliers Encyclopedia. Yikes!

No definitely not obesessed. Just an expert. Plus I need you here. Your another mom, and that makes me feel less like a weirdo for being a mom with a healthy obsession with "kids" show. Thanks

Heeeeyyyy, I didn't know you're a mom too! Outstanding!

I plan on sticking around, so we'll have some fun. We have to get lydja-chan to post more often, she's another Avatar-lovin' mommy.
