    Many stand to gain from it, I think I explained why. That???s like asking why people gawk at celebrities in the first place. I will miss the voice of Iroh, I can???t mourn for Mako, I didn???t know him, I can???t mourn for everyone who has died every 15 seconds, for the 100 billion people that came before us, I can???t if I did I would have join them along time ago.

    I wonder what will be done in the show to Iroh, will the replacement voice suck?, will they have a replacement? What if in the next season they have Zuko wake up to find Iroh has died in his sleep? That would be a RELLY POWERFUL! You want episode of avatar to get a emmy, thats it right there!!! It would exemplify how people really die! Not in some heroic bloody battle (although death in combat is pretty high, most of the time it isn???t heroic) but simply by passing way quitely.

    I wonder if Nick would allow this, but I don't even ??think Cn,Disney,or Nick has done something like that before in their cartoons. It would be a first..

    Powerful, yes, but... well... I personally think Iroh's too cool to just keel quietly in his sleep. It would be a nice, peaceful death, like he deserves, but it just doesn't seem right to have him go to sleep and the next morning be found dead. He at least should have time to??choke out??his noble last words and say his goodbyes and I loves you's to Zuko. Iroh deserves a nice dramatic end, if he must have one.

    But a dramatic end is so clich??d, this would be totally new. If you want good byes you can have Zuko and Iroh sign it out in the spirit world.

    Hopefully it will be different with Mako and Richard Harris because Iroh is just a voice and not a picture as well. Dumbledore was ruined after Harris died. Hopefully they can keep Iroh together and find some one with a similar voice. R.I.P. Mako

    P.S. Colonel_Brian, I respect you very much.?? I have read many of your posts, and you are definitely??one??worthy of??respect, be it "internet respect" or "real respect."

    What made the new Dumbledore worse then the old, with the beard they look like they replaced him well enough? I remember when the made Aladdin the TV show and the voice for the genii, ooh man that was awful.

    Exactly, that's why I hate movies becoming tv shows because it's never the same!

    The main difference I noticed with the new Dumbledore is that the new guy didn't seem as wise. Richard Harris was always so soft spoken, like you would expect from Dumbledore, and the new guy was always yelling and acting enthusiastic. Sure, he looked like Dumbledore (shorter beard though) but looks are only half the act. He simply doesn't have the Dumbledore demeanor that Richard Harris brought to the role.

    True well he's gonna die in the next movie or was it the movie after that?
