The Swamp

Postby Mooseboy018 on Fri May 14, 2010 3:39 am

positives:
-Hue's speech about the world being "one" and stuff (one of my favorite scenes in the whole series :thumbsup: )
-the supernatural/spiritual/mysterious feel of the episode
-Iroh begging/flirting :lol:
-Iroh's song
-the Blue Spirit is back! 8-)
-Aang's vision of Toph
- a quick glimpse of Kya
-Appa and Momo having their own little adventure
-Sokka's vision of Yue (and his guilt)
-the swampbenders are weird but cool
-SKEPTICISM! Sokka

negatives:
-it can get a bit boring
-the swampbenders are right on the line between goofy and over-the-top IMO
-a little more Zuko and Iroh stuff would have been nice

rating: 9

I've always loved the overall feel of this episode, and I think it's great how they started and ended it with a bit of Zuko and Iroh's story.

I wonder if Aang using the tree to find Appa (similar to the Guru finding Aang) has any sort of connection to energybending.

Good episode overall. It gets a bit boring, but that's probably because I've watched it for 34533th time.

8/10

One of my favorite episodes. I absolutely love how it's not rushed in the least bit and just laid back. And I like how there's just a random shot while they're on Appa showing how boring it is just flying around. :lol:

I LOVE the visions Katara and Sokka have. Yue's voice in this episode is amazing when it echoes.

Forgot: I recently watched, at 2 PM. And the vision scenes happened to be really frightening for me, for some reason.
So I guess... there is some horror in this episode ;)

I really like this episode. I like the mysterious aspect of it.

The only thing I do not like are the swamp benders. They are... just... ugh.

This was a weird one, I'm not gunna lie. But I really did enjoy the slight creepy nature to it. And the swamp monster was so cool!! Overall it was really enjoyable.

It was a bit creepy ;)

and I think the girl that Aang was chasing was.. Toph?
That's the only other girl I know that Aang becomes good friends with in the series.
Hmm.

Yeah, that's confirmed to be Toph in The Blind Bandit. He recognizes her laugh from his vision in the swamp, and the flying boar in his vision leads them to investigate the Bae Fong family.
Yes, I was disappointed with the movie. No, I don't think it was the worst movie ever. Maybe I'll make an actual review when I see it a second time. Or maybe not.

I'm rewatching the series from a loong time ago, and I don't remember of any of the episodes from late season 2/season 3.
