Its format is also unique for a 2005-2008 cartoon in that each episode stands on its own with a clear arc and message but also fits into a larger three-season epic arc with clear challenges and goals for the characters. It’s a real hero’s journey for Aang. Here are my Top 10 Favorite Episodes.”

Read More“It’s been reported that Disney is going to develop a new “Pirates of the Caribbean” film with Margot Robbie set to star.
