Still is quite remarkable how small the pop culture impact of the other Avatar is (discuss.online)

I’ve never seen either…

Wish that happened to me. I have to clarify the REAL Avatar.

I always had the opposite reaction. I'd say avatar and people would think I meant Xbox or the movie.

It has an entire section of Animal Kingdom dedicated to it in Disney World and both movies made a stupid amount of money breaking multiple records. It had plenty of impact of pop culture, just look at how often people say this exact thing on a regular basis without a shred of self awareness. I love ATLA but this claim has always been silly.

I feel like it doesn't really count if the only thing you're widely known for is how little impact you've had on the world. Everyone knows Avatar's name, everyone has seen it, and maybe 5% of the people who saw it can quote a single line from it

Why wouldn't it count? If you're widely known then you're widely known, nobody said you had to be widely known for being good.
