(The Last ) Avatar stuff - moves

alex1_phang3 · Mar 20, 2007, 07:47 AM

Did youguys see the show Avatar : The Last Airbender?

I though I saw something:
Waterbending = Tai Chi
Earthbending = *some style from Wong Fei Hung movies* and mantis style
Firebending = Iron Palm
Airbending = Ba Gua Fist (coz of all the spin and stuff)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but do youguys see the same thing too? Or I'm just thinking too much . . .

Some of these moves I saw on a game thats about it, though I don't really care or anything I just like action cartoons and fighting ones.

Swt, the games use mootion capture to take real moves right?

yes, the creators of the avatar based the bending styles on those martial arts.

yeah i remember watching nick and it had a avatar special where it showed you where the fighting styles came from. they had experts in different martial arts preform for the artist and then they would draw what they see them doing but with some differences.
