[Jordacar]

The Challenge: Write out a description for a trailer for any comic book/superhero movie that you would like to see made; Boil it down to what we would see and hear.

The quotes are taken from Uncle Iroh in the episode “Bitter Work” when he’s going over the four elements with Zuko. The spot would be edited to make it look like he’s talking to Aang.
