      Some actors have such a unique voice that we could recognize them right away, like Yuri Lowenthal, Liam O'brien, Mark Hamil, Matthew Mercer. I was gonna say Troy Baker too but his Joker and Batman voice were so distinct from his other works

      Mark Hamill being 72 and he still got that Joker/Luke Skywalker talk.
      So pretty much Dallas might still be up for such at a late age. 😊

      Honestly yeah, I kinda feel bad for him and I think Dante really tried to get the fans to forgive Dev for that performance because it really wasn't his fault the movie was as crap as it was. It really seemed like he was tricked into this production and by the time he was with the Fire Nation ensemble of all the Indian guys for what was clearly supposed to be a far east Asian ensemble, it was too late. He already signed the contract, he probably even did individual close up shots already so it was too late to jump ship without some SERIOUS repercussions.
      Same with Zach as well. Just a kid trying his best and by the time it became obvious that the production was drowning, it was too late for him to drop the role.

    Dev Patel deserves the respect. It’s not his fault the movie was bad he was actually one of the better aspects of the movie. He was a bad cast for Zuko just because of his appearance but he can’t help that. All the blame for that movie falls on M Knight. It’s not the actors/actresses fault they were poorly cast based on their experience and appearance for their roles. They got the job they aren’t going to turn it down. They also aren’t responsible for the terrible dialogue given to them. Could they have acted better maybe but you work with what you have when it comes to the script given to you.

    As a millennial who grew up on ATLA (and who also majored in journalism), not only seeing Dante interview Dallas but feeling their care and respect for this world and deep dive they took into it, gave me chills! Glad they gave a shout to Dev too! His performance wasn’t a weaker element of that movie. Sometimes projects just don’t work.

    6:32 I need people to understand why Dallus agreed with Dante. Its because this show really did!!! I remember being kid watching this show on Nick Toons every chance it was on I was engaged, excited, and happy it was on. This is one of those rare tv shows that just getter better with age and is still as good as it was when u were a kid verse a young adult like myself. Themes, character growth, cool bending system, and overall a community of people who love it. It still amazes me to this day that there were only three seasons, most television shows nowadys tells 5 to 6 seasons. But Avatar was straight to the point and amazing. Lastly, the character of Zuko is just so iconic because I can't tell you one other character that has the best redepemtion arc in fiction, the only one coming to mind is prince Vegeta. Ironicly enough, he is also a prince lol.

      I can't imagine being at that maturity range to completely understand everything that was going on. I watched this show as it aired too but it came out in 2005 and I was born in 2002 so I was extremely young, and now that I've grown into my own person, I learn more about the show than I did when I was younger. It must have been an experience to interact with the fans and anticipate the show's episode in real time. I gained the most conscious awareness of the show when it was completed. And I had a deep understanding of it but being a child you only absorb so much. You're the OG of the OG's

    "We're trying to get the world back in balance."
    Holy shit, that gave ME chills. I was almost moved to tears now hearing that, I can't even imagine the extent of the impact Dante would've felt being told that to his face. What an amazing way to say... yeah I mean. ATLA really shaped my life and who I am too, all of Iroh's advice made me a much better person: mindful, respectful, kind whenever I can be.
    This is very neat to listen to. I'm still worried about the show, especially with every 'It doesn't have to be line for line" emphasis. Like, yes, of course I understand and always expected such, so why do you keep bringing it up lol, are you rewriting everything or something?? I wasn't really concerned but every time that defense gets reinforced by anyone with the show it like, ticks up the worry for me.
    Yall get what I mean? Like when someone explains something then you go, "okay, gotcha :) " and then they explain it again and you're like, "...yeah, I said I understood you, it's cool." and they keep going and then you're like, "Hey is something up or something, did I misunderstand?". Anyways-
    Still excited. I wanna have fun with it, I hope they get to go all the way through the end of S3.
    Even if I end up not enjoying it, I'm not gonna rag on any of the actors. They just seem so stoked and really love the source material so.
