* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation:
** How many of the play's inaccuracies were deliberate, and how many were due to the creators genuinely not knowing the truth?
** The play's version of Toph is a muscular grown man, whereas the real Toph is a petite twelve-year-old girl. Was this just another case of the creators changing things, or did they get inaccurate information from people who didn't want to admit they were defeated by a little girl?
** The play turns out to be Fire Nation propaganda, despite being written by an Earth Kingdom playwright. Is the playwright a Fire Nation sympathizer, or did he write the play as a tailor-made for a Fire Nation audience, which believes their nation is on the right? For that matter, Ozai's ObviouslyEvil characterization despite being the HeroAntagonist and his victory being portrayed as a good thing, is it a case of DeliberateValuesDissonance as the Fire Nation audience sees that as the traits of a good guy, or did the playwright include those villainous traits as a sneaky TakeThat against the Fire Lord's villainy which the Fire Nation audience didn't notice?
* GeniusBonus: Aang is annoyed at being played by a woman; in many stage adaptations of ''Literature/JourneyToTheWest'' the monk Xuanzang/Tripitaka/Genjo Sanzo is played by a female actor.
* HilariousInHindsight:
** The Gaang watch an adaptation of ''Avatar: The Last Airbender'' that, despite its decent effects, is incredibly inaccurate and insulting to their intelligence. Many of the Gaang's remarks could easily be used on [[Film/TheLastAirbender M. Night Shyamalan's controversial film adaptation]] (except whether the effects are good is debatable).
** Aang complains on how he's played by a woman in the play. The Avatar that succeeded Aang, [[WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra Korra]], is female. Not to mention, in the Russian dub, Korra has the same voice actress as her predecessor, Aang. Also, most of Noah Ringer's stunts in the live-action film were performed by a woman.
** In this episode, Player!Bumi is voiced by Creator/DeeBradleyBaker, years later, Baker would be one of the voices for [[WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra another Bumi]].
** In the Brazilian dub, Player!Zuko and Iroh are voiced by Ettore Zuim and André Bellisar, respectively. They'd go to voice the real ones in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra''
* MemeticMutation:
** Tear bending has become a popular way to describe TearJerker moments.
** The Gaang's aforementioned comments about the play became a popular reaction meme to poor adaptations and productions in general.
