    Yeah, it was visually stunning for sure, and the story was a great representation of the immigrant experience. Kind of a story that’s been done before (Romeo/Juliet, Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner, basically any other story about children of immigrants wanting to honor the sacrifices of their parents while introducing culture mixing, etc.)… but really a sweet story. The water family was hilarious, and Wade, the water guy, is kind of the sweetest person ever created. Really creative ideas about how literal “fire people” and “water people” could exist and what they could do. Reminded me a lot of the Futurama episode about the water people planet. That had to be a big inspiration.
