    They weren't throw away soldiers though, they were supposed to be elite, well trained warriors. this is like the US navy seals getting their but wooped by a twelve year old acrobat. It jsut seems to me like they made her way to powerful, she should've at least gotten hit, once.
    That had absolutely no connection to what I was saying.

    Some of these guy are really confusing me with the quote thing.

    Ok, here???s what got to me the most, the dialog. The dialog of the Drill made me cringe.??

    ???She can shoot all the lighting she wants at me???

    Your like a screaming hog monkey

    I know he didn???t get that scar from a waterbender.???

    I???m watching this and going, ???What the F? What???d they do, borrow Steve Marmel or Butch Hartman for this thing? Is this how its going to be now? The plot and the hook of the show are supposed to be kept separate but related without one overlapping the other. Perfect example: The Deserter and The Waterbending Master.

    And Toph. Oh God Toph what have they done to u? Jessie Flowers??? VA was perfect, but the lines they gave her. Turbonick is evil. They made us think all her lines were gonna be that great. Now it seems all she???s got left are blind jokes (that could???ve have been a lot better) and earthbending. That were they were talking about the drill made me cry. Did that have to be her input?

    But u know a lot of variables do go into it. The unnecessary hype, the leak, the spoilers, the fact that they???re just two episodes and Nick still isn???t quite used to having a show which actually has a point and contains continuity. Plus this was an action based episode. Hmm, I sure miss The Blue Spirit right about now.????Ah well, at least it looked nice, maybe it'd be better if they didn't talk at all.

    Ah well were still in the second season. ...Yeah that saying a lot.


    criticizing overload!

    Its kind of strange, some scenes people said they didn???t like in SotFN, where scenes I enjoyed. So to each his own I suppose, but I think hype is really what killed these episodes for most people. After all these episodes are much better then "The Swamp" yet when that episode aired it got nothing but good reviews from forum goers.

    The only thing that I will agree with people on is that fact that Ty Lee was over powered. But if you think about it Aang, Azula, Toph, Iroh, Bumi, and Pakku could have all done the same thing. In fact im sure Katara, Zuko, Mai, and even Jet(He defeated tons of fire nation soldiers by himself and did well against Aang) could have beaten those earthbenders. So really she not that strong compared to the other main characters.

    Heh heh...

    The problem about critics is that they tend to be right. Well, most of the time that is.

    Uh, no that's Shebang. And aside from being an original animated character it's also means "all that stuff" or "the whole thing". You know, the phrase, "the whole shebangabang?"..... eh?

    Well actually it just sounded like you were continuing the conversation from Official Episode Speculation: Secret of the Fire Nation (9/15) (Spoilers) where we just heard about it.
