camwynWatched Avatar: The Last Airbender last night, two episodes.
"The Headband" was fine. Footloose in the Fire Nation, basically. Nice animation, good music, nice strategic use of anime facial conventions.
"The Painted Lady", though... um.
Well.
By the end of it I had the impression that Joshua Hamilton, the credited writer, had gotten very drunk, watched Princess Mononoke, and announced, "Miyazaki's a hack! I could do this plot in twenty-two minutes!", and they held him to it.
Wow, that was a crappy episode.
