squeeee!!!

I just watched the Avatar the Last Aibender finale, and it was awesome! I'm not really coherent enough to do any kind of proper review, but I have one question: What did that lion turtle say?! I only understood every other word and had no closed captioning available. I especially didn't understand what it said in the flashback during Aang's and Ozai's fight, the speech that started with, I think, "in the era before the Avatar...something...balance...something energy within ourselves...something" and then led to Aang taking Ozai's bending ability. What did it say? It drives me nuts, because I want to get the mythology of what happened.

But besides wishing they had toned down the lion turtle's voice effects this was awesome. I loved the fight choreography and the music worked also really well, especially in Zuko's and Azula's fight, and I loved how everybody had an important role, and the scene at the end with Aang during Zuko's coronation, the hug! Just so many things! *incoherent glee noises*

I can't believe the series is over, otoh it had a great run.

Huh, I watch the show on an occasional basis--I did not realize this was a series finale. Weird.

Huh. Well, I guess I'll know it's the end when I stumble across that episode in reruns two or four or eight months from now, then. *g*

There has to be some behind the scenes shennanigans going on. Here in the states, a kiddie tie-in novel was released first...then they aired everything from Western Air Temple to Sozin's Comet in one week, just before the dvds of the final season are supposed to have been released.

Sigh. Such an excellent show. I wish we'd gotten another season. The one thing left open for sequels is what happened to Princess Ursa and who murdered Fire Lord Azulon.

I have no idea what the lion-turtle said! As someone on my flist commented it sounded like "Burble flabble energy goober wanga niffy." ::shrug::

But yes, other than that, I loved it :)

Aha! That helps, thank you :)
