i think that the reason aang isnt avery powerfull airbender (or seems that way) is because

A. he isnt a real airbending master yet, hes only had 12 yrs of preactice which isnt that much compare to Bumi who has had 112 yrs or the other masters we have seen i.e master??Pako and master Jon Jon,??which i think might mean he gets taught by and older airbender possibly from the western air temple(who by air bender rules are only female)

B. because he is afraid of inducing the Avatar state and hurting is friends like in the first episode of the 2nd book- Avatar State. we saw how he felt in The Deserter when he burt Katara's hand he swore he would never firebend again.

please get back to me on this and plus if there are any hardcore fans who get the lastest film on there pc's and want to send them to me email me please!!!!

also someone put Bitter Work preview on Youtube!!!

Wait a sec, is this topic about Aang being more powerful, or Aang being more violent?

Anyway, Aang isn't just the last airbender; he's also the Avatar. We know??he has to master all??the elements, but another??point is this: won't this result??in mastering the martial arts styles assosiated with the other elements? For instance, firebending should mean adopting the offensive style of Northern Shaolin. The only way out??of this is to??apply his Ba Gua to every other type of bending, and we??haven't got much indication that??one art's bending moves will transfer completely to another art, and his teacher's will most likely be teaching the style along with the bending.

Of course, it'd be hard to imagine Aang dropping his peaceful ways to burn someone's face off with a firebending attack, unless he was really angry, or goes through a "Dark Aang" period. Still, wouldn't it be interesting if to see Aang fight in different ways, perhaps even competing in an Agni Kai?
