They Chalk It Up To My Anger And Never To Their Own Fear

I know my journal has been FILLED with feminist rage lately, but dammit, there's just SO MUCH TO RAGE ABOUT. So, just one last thing for now.

But first, I just learned something awful and not feminist-ragey related: Here in Portland, no Community on Thursday thanks to a stupid Blazers game! I have to wait until Saturday! GODDAMMIT BLAZERS. I MISS THE PORTLAND FIRE! WNBA>>>>>NBA. TRUFAX.

Wait, Ken Jeong just deleted his tweet announcing that. I'm so confused!!

Anyway, onto the feminist rage.

A "Good" Review

It's about The Last Airbender, the ATLA movie.

How do Katara and Sokka discover Aang's iceberg in the movie? What are they doing?

Sokka was hunting some seal creature and following it's tracks when they reach a frozen part of the ocean/water. They look down and see that it is glowing underneath the ice so they use Sokkas boomerang to break the ice and a large ice berg appears that contains Aang.

Also, does the movie play on the earthbenders spirits/wills being broken even though they have earth to bend?

Yes, when they trio first meet the Earth Benders they are in a camp seperated from their tribes because they can bend the earth. They begin to bend again after hearing Aang tell them that he is the Avatar.

SOKKA FREES AANG FROM THE ICEBERG.

AANG MOTIVATES THE IMPRISONED/OUT-CASTED EARTHBENDERS.

Two things that Katara did in the show.

ARGH M. NIGHT FUCK YOU.

Oh, and Yue's engagement appears to be scrapped.

I know this is an early review, but GAAAAH there is SO MUCH WRONG WITH THIS MOVIE that even if this genderfail is resolved before the final release I'm still gonna hate it.

GODDAMMIT, WHY DOES THIS MOVIE HAVE TO HAVE A KATARA ACTION FIGURE? And the cartoon NEVER got one! There's only a shitty action figure for shitty white Katara! DAMMIT, CASTING DIRECTORS. I don't need Katara to be white to relate to her! I'm white and I relate SO MUCH to the Katara I know and love from the cartoon!

yue, sokka, feminism, fuck you, genderfail, aang, katara is my hero, conversations about race, katara, racefail, avatar: the last airbender, m. night whyyyyyyy, racebending
