TEEN TITANS SEASON 6
So I know I haven't posted here much lately because I moved and then I was on vacation, but this is IMPORTANT. Watch this video, especially if you are a fan of Teen Titans from 2003. I need this video to see as many people as possible. Watch this video, do what it says. When you get to the message part, state how you want Teen Titans Go cancelled (only if you do, which I do, but I don't know about you), and how the original Teen Titans should be renewed for a 6th season with all the original crew, as many of the previous writers, animators, voice actors, mainly writers and voice actors, creators, execs, animators, producers, and editors returning. Until next time, this is Storm signing out.

Sharkbate the Shark and His Obnoxious and Surprisingly Annoying Reviews - Avatar: The Last Airbender
Hey guys, Storm here. Recently, (by recently I mean last Friday) I visited my pal Ethan's house and borrowed his DVDs of Avatar: The Last Airbender. I was binge watching this show until Monday, when I woke up with a sinus infection, a 99 degree fever (which is pretty high, my normal is 95), and since then I only watch like 8 episodes at most per day. Anyway, since AVATAR: TLA was divided into different sections using Books, I feel reviewing each book first and then the series in total is the simplest way of doing this. NOTE: THERE WILL BE SPOILERS IN THIS REVIEW. IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT, YOU'RE EITHER STUPID OR JUST THE KIND OF PERSON WHO JUST READS AND DOESN'T REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT JUST HAPPENED.
Book 0: Pilot
For anyone reading who hasn't seen the pilot, you can watch it by clicking these five words.
The pilot's storyline is very confusing, but very simple. Aang, Sokka, Kya (Katara), and Momo were flying around on Appa and they land on some island for some reason. It turns out that Zuko, the banished prince, was on that island as well. Then, Sokka goes out somewhere to find some food. He finds some red berries, and decides to eat them.... for.... some.. reason..... He turns around to find Fire Nation soldiers (voiced by the same person who voices Zuko) riding rhinos. The soldiers capture him because.... Uhhh... Can I have some help here please? Why they were just wandering around, I don't know, but that's not important. They take Sokka into custody. Aang and Kya get suspicious and find Sokka in the construction site for a Zuko statue. Sokka and Kya are thrown into a prison pit. Aang fights off Zuko... In a way. Kya notices that water is leaking into the pit from above, and uses the water to flood the hole and escape. Aang grabs Sokka and Kya and flies away. Whilst flying, Aang flies directly above Momo and a basket of food, forcing Sokka into them both. They then fly away. The pilot ends at this point, roll credits.
Wait a second, did I say simple? WHAT KIND OF A PERSON AM I?
A terrible liar, I guess.
Where were they headed? I don't know.
Where did Momo come from? I don't know.
Why didn't they have food? I don't know.
Why did Sokka eat the berries that could potentially be poisonous? I don't know.
Why were the soldiers just walking through the woods? I don't know.
Why did Zuko just throw Sokka and Kya into a pit instead of a cell? I don't know.
Why was Kya's name changed from Kya to Katara in the real show? To mess up my mind and get her name mixed up with my friend Huntara's name, which is a pretty bad reason to change a character's name.
Also note that Aang is voiced by a different person in the final series.
Book 1: Water
Now, I'm not going to explain this one's plot for you, you are going to have to watch for yourself.
I like the first chapter very well. I like how
Book rating: 9 out of 10, I wasn't a fan of the Northern Air Temple chapter.
Book 2: Earth
Read the first sentence of my review of Book 1 before proceeding.
While the Avatar State episode was quite annoying and disappointing, the next episode, the Cave of Two Lovers involved a later-famous song, Secret Tunnel. The Return to Omashu wasn't that bad, and it saw the return of a few side characters. The Blind Bandit was one of those episodes that you can't miss or else you have no idea what's going on. Very entertaining indeed. As for the Zuko Alone episode, I don't see why they couldn't just use these as like half of the episode with another story involving Aang and the other people. The next episode was titled The Chase. In this episode, uhhh, Azula hurts her relatives. I don't really remember much more than that. I give this episode a thummz down. The episode Bitter Work resolved some conflicts and taught some message of some kind. The message was: If your friend is gone too long, look for him. I LOVED The Library. The owl was creepy, omnipotent, and omnipresent, making him more creepy. We also discovered some valuable information. This episode started a longer plot as well: The hunt for Appa. So they look for Appa over the next few episodes. During these episodes, Toph hopes to die, some kid is born, the Fire Nation try to break into Ba Sing Se, and some other stuff happens. They find Appa, and Aang visits a Guru to learn how to control the Avatar State. He then opens some door thingamajigs (I never actually caught their name) so he can control the Avatar state. For the last thingamajig to open so he can enter and exit the avatar state at will, he needs to let go of all he loves. He finally learns to do that. But then he sees that
Book Rating: 8/10 I wasn't too happy when the baby's name was Hope in the Serpent's Pass. That name is the 233rd most popular name. Yeah. I looked it up. Most of the episodes weren't very memorable, and looking at the episode list to see which ones to review, I had no idea what most were about. I forgot in less than 2 weeks. That's like 15 episodes. Forgotten in less than 2 weeks.
| Toph Literally Wants to Drown, No Kidding |
Book 3: Fire
This was probably the best out of all of them. Aang with hair is pretty weird, though. It tells a decent story. It features not only a double-episode story, but also a 4-part episode. Zuko joins the gang, surprising many. The design of the western air temple is quite creative as well. The lion turtle seen in the pilot has returned and is better than you, so shut up and leave it alone. The ending was quite creative, and it was very nice to see the heroes get what they deserve. The Fire Nation is defeated and the war is over. Zuko is the Fire Lord. ZUKO IS THE FIRE LORD. It was crazy how he was only on the good side for less than 15 episodes, and we still liked it when he became Fire Lord. Why? Because the writers know what they are doing. Most writers don't have a clue about anything and have never been so unsure about anything in their life. Michael Dante Dimartino and Bryan Konietzo did well, and we will be forever thankful.
This has been Avatar: The Last Airbender. If you were wondering why Books 1&2 were reviewed so differently from Book 3, books 1&2 were reviewed around April 10th, and the Book 3 review was written on May 17th and I was busy with softball and school.
Until next time, this is Storm signing off.

Here's Why I Haven't Been Posting Lately
So, no introduction sentence. Let's get down to business. I'm moving June 1st, and it will take a couple weeks to get my stuff packed up and then moved and then unpacked. My problem is, my house has wayyyyyy too much stuff in it. I would have a pic ready, but my camera and my phone are dead and they take forever to charge. So lately I've been packing stuff up. I've also had lots of school stuff to do. For example, yesterday was the track meet. It lasted for 8 hours. Next week I have softball practice every day except for Wednesday, and the tournament is on Saturday. Don't worry, though, as I will be posting at least twice a week starting sometime in Late June to early July. Bye!

Sharkbate the Shark and His Obnoxious and Quite Surprisingly Annoying Reviews: It Never Ends
Hey guys, Storm here. Today I am going to review something. Not a party, but a song. For this type of media, I have a new thingymabobber that I will use specifically when reviewing movies and music. TV has another name. Well, now that that's out of the way, let's get to the point. Today I am going to review a song by Bring Me The Horizon. Not the crappy Bring Me The Horizon, but the cool one with death metal and crap. The song I review today is called "It Never Ends."
The main point of this song is that this guy from the band has a girlfriend that won't leave him alone and is probably wasting minutes and texts on her phone because she won't leave him alone as I type and you read. The song is pretty fun, except for a few parts that feel out of place. For example, that boring part where just normal not death metal music plays for about 20-30 seconds. What's the point? Is he dying? There is no indication.
Also, there's the music video. The music video makes no sense whatsoever and has pretty much nothing to do with the song. Let's see, shall we? This guy is in an ambulance and he's dying. He's losing blood fast, and he needs to get to a hospital. In that note, the ambulance is also chased by a bunch of pointless zombies. LOTS TO DO WITH THE SONG, EPITAPH! (That was sarcastic, but you couldn't tell, unless you have physic powers because I am typing and I cannot add any tone to words that are written). Then the nurse sees the zombies chasing the ambulance and calls up the mummy driving the ambulance instead of, oh, I don't know, TALKING TO HIM, and tells mummyface to lose the zombies. Next thing I know, the guy with like no blood is standing on the roof screaming. Also, it's day. Wasn't it just night 2 seconds ago? Won't it just be night in 2 seconds? Yep. 2 seconds later, the guy is back inside the ambulance talking to the nurse. Oh, now he's on the roof again. Oh, he's flying now. Mummyface is still driving. Oh, back to the flying guy. Oh, now we are back to the main plot with the totally forgotten zombies chasing the ambulance. Oh wait, hold it. They're vampires all of a sudden. And now the guy is flying again. Zombies Vampires, flying. Vampires, flying. It just goes back and forth for a while. Eventually the nurse cuts open his stomach. Why? Well, good question. Maybe he has that thing where the stomach acid burns through the inside of his stomach. Will we ever find out? NOPE. NEVER. Oh wait, back to flying and a few shots of the zombies vampires that were chasing the ambulance. Oh, look, his kidney! How cool! Someone's removed kidney always looks cool! Oh, kidney out the back window now for some reason. Oh, and now the nurse's stunt double is a zombie vampire as well. Oh, and doesn't the nurse kinda remind anybody of Natasha from the live-action Rocky and Bullwinkle movie? Nobody? It's just me? Okay.
So the ambulance pulls up to some kind ofcourthouse hospital from a Ronald Reagan movie some part of something. The doctors get the guy with 1 kidney into the hospital that for some reason has no lights on. Well okey dokey, then, video. Oh, he's flying again.
So then he's in the hospital and the doctors are acting like they have no idea what they are doing, because they don't.
The guy ends up holding his own heart. Then we look at some cliffs and stuff. Oh, and he's flying again!
Okay, I'm done. The vampires are back, and guess what, HE'S FLYING AGAIN! So the zombie vampire thingies try to get in. So he is in pain and the zombies are trying to break in and he wants to die. The zombies break in and guess what? THE VIDEO IS OVER. HOLY CRAP, THAT MADE NO SENSE WHATSOEVER.
Song: 8/10
Video: 2/10
In total, this song and video combined gets a 16% rating. Really, that's it. Until next time, this is Storm being obnoxious and suprisingly annoying. This is Storm, signing off.
