Avatar - The Last Airbender: The Complete Series Blu-ray Review
Video quality bends, but doesn't suspension, in this quality TV release.
Reviewed by Martin Liebman, May 17, 2018
Avatar: The Last Airbender evolves the traditional 30-minuite episodic cartoon into a wonderfully realized, living and animate arc-driven fantasy world of many external influences and internal novelties harmoniously brought together into one fantastic show. Airing on Nickelodeon from 2005-2008, the bear witness, telling the story of the young Airbender/Avatar named Aang and his role in returning harmony to his broken, war-ravaged globe, garnered critical acclaim and a substantial fan following (which included Filmmaker K. Night Shyamalan, who wrote and directed a poorly received alive activeness adaptation). For its 10-year anniversary, Paramount has released the show to Blu-ray, packed with extras and at a very attractive price point because the quantity of content and quality of the prove.
The earth is divided into iv nations: the Air Nomads, the H2o Tribes, the Earth Kingdom, and the Burn down Nation. Each exists harmoniously with the other, and each is dedicated by those with the ability to "bend" their native environments to their will, to wield the powers of air, water, earth, and fire, for purpose, for play, for skillful...for evil. A century agone, the Fire Nation attacked its neighbors, sending the earth into chaos. The ane person who could put an end to the rebellion, a unique master of all 4 elements -- the Avatar -- has died. His spirit was reincarnated into a young boy named Aang, an air bough, just the anarchy of war has resulted in Aang existing in a land of suspended animation. He is inadvertently awoken by a pair of Water Tribe explorers, Katara and her brother Sokka. Aang's awakening draws the attention of a rogue, militant young Fire bender named Zuko who makes it his mission to hunt Aang downward. As Aang and his new friends take a chance through a dangerous globe, they will confront many trials and learn more about themselves and their bending abilities every bit they endeavor to restore social club to their abode earth.
All of the bear witness's core construct elements (no pun intended) piece of work well individually and collectively akin. The story, action, characterization, animation, voice work, audio furnishings�it'south difficult to notice flaw with the prove, top to bottom. Information technology'due south narratively vibrant, built around a few stock elements but Creators Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko have accomplished something wonderful in the style they have filled in all the gaps, bending all the pieces together (OK, pun certainly intended that time) to craft a fully realized, richly textured globe and graphic symbol roster. Avatar certainly looks like some generic cartoon at-a-glance, but give information technology fourth dimension -- one episode, even -- and the differences in dramatic texture compared to other similarly looking programs is apparent. Give it a handful of episodes and its story depth becomes articulate. Give it a season and its intoxicating draw is fully realized. Requite it the full run and its identify as a classic TV prove -- blithe or otherwise -- becomes incontrovertible.
The prove additionally reveals a healthy vitality in its action constructs. It's really quite amazing to watch how the product squad has seamlessly and precisely implemented various styles of Kung Fu into the angle motions, how each style reflects and compliments the characters and, more than, their work with the elements they command. In that location'south a remarkable fluidity to it all, and the harmonious movements requite every action scene, or even playful bit of fun with an element, a sense of fantasy authenticity that's critical to the bear witness'southward visual success and narrative flow. Avatar is a prove very much rooted in reality, even as it deals in the fantastic, and that connection between something distant and wonderful and familiar is a big part of what makes the evidence work and then well.
Avatar - The Concluding Airbender: The Complete Serial Blu-ray, Video Quality
Avatar: The Last Airbender - The Complete Serial was originally broadcast in standard definition and its elements finished in SD, then this gear up is a high definition upscale. The resultant 1080p epitome, which is presented in an original aspect ratio of 1.33:ane that places "back confined" on either side of the one.78:i frame, is fairly strong under the constraints and limitations, just it'southward of import to notation that diverse artifacts grow. Ringing, banding, aliasing, noise, and mild macroblocking are all bug with which the viewer must contend throughout each episode. None are severe (though the ringing is the most consistently obvious of the bunch) just are noticeable enough to occasionally interrupt a sentry. Fortunately, the testify is good enough on its own merits that the narrative absorption crushes video flaws; the viewer will be and then hooked to the story that technical issues fade into the background of the larger viewing feel. Mostly, the image is pleasing enough. Colors are consistent, though not extremely vibrant or dynamic. They're very basic, even in variations of shades of red in the fire kingdom or brighter blues and yellows throughout the world. Textures fare well, particularly stable and static environments that enjoy more complex artwork than moving parts, like characters. Because its SD roots, it'due south difficult to be too disappointed. The results are very good overall. Flaws are readily credible, but Paramount has done a very good job with this release, in totality.
Avatar - The Terminal Airbender: The Consummate Series Blu-ray, Audio Quality
Avatar: The Last Airbender - The Complete Series features a DTS-Hd Master Sound 2.0 lossless soundtrack. Much like the video, it has its limits, but it's also more than than adequate in delivering essential sound elements and some more nuanced details alike with pleasing accuracy. The track's nigh evident drawback is the lack of a dedicated subwoofer channel. The rails equally it's configured just cannot support the show's near intense elements and activity scenes with the sort of heft that would have elevated most every moment several-fold. Such scenes do not sound empty, but it'south definitely wanting greater low-cease definition. The track makes expert utilise of the available channels, however, spacing out with impressive width forth the stage'south forepart stop. Music and effects alike push out to the edges, both with adept essential clarity and precision in less substantial support elements. Various furnishings are well imaged and phase traversal is often a highlight. Dialogue images towards the center with pleasing command of that area. Even in the absenteeism of boosted channels and a subwoofer component, the track plays relatively well and supports the show very well.

Avatar - The Terminal Airbender: The Complete Serial Blu-ray, Overall Score and Recommendation
Avatar ranks as one of the all-fourth dimension cracking animated programs and information technology's one of the better TV shows out there. A magical mix of familiar and fantastic, it's a prove built on intimate and detailed characterization, full-steam-alee drama, intense and wonderfully realized activeness, and plenty of narrative depth and accessible complication. It'southward too bad that the alive action filmed version could not alive up to the serial' excellence, but this is a fabulous 3-season run that has finally earned a much-desired Blu-ray release. While picture and audio are imperfect, they're certainly in no way horrible given the source'south limitations. Paramount has also ported over a mammoth amount of extra content from previous DVD releases. Avatar: The Last Airbender - The Consummate Series comes very highly recommended.
