Live-action anime or cartoon remakes often struggle to live up to the shows that inspired them.
There are expressions and actions that simply can’t be captured in a live-action setting.
Despite this, several remakes do manage to capture some of the magic from the original shows.
Aang is a child, and he doesn’t know how to engage with life without humor.
None of this is to say that the remake didn’t work.
But, for 100 years, he was frozen in a block of ice.
As a result, he acts, thinks, and plays like a 12-year-old boy.
And to get to alleviate some of that intense pressure, Aang loves to play.
But fortunately, being so young, Aang’s memory is short, and he is easily distracted.
And that is part of the issue with the live-action show.
Aang has too much focus, and lacks the same fun and frivolousness of his animated counterpart.
Especially factoring in the longer episodes in the live-action show.
