Run Run Shaw was born in Shanghai, China on October 4, 1907. What I’m trying to get at here is- do you think Sozin started the dragon hunting by slaying his own dragon once it started to defy him. At the end of the Hundred Year War, they were the last known surviving dragons, a species nearly hunted to extinction by firebenders after Fire Lord Sozin began the tradition of killing them for glory.
Unlike the aggressive and hatred-fueled methods employed by most benders native to the Fire Nation during the Hundred Year War, Ran and Shaw practice a form of firebending that emphasizes the life-giving qualities of fire. Let’s stop acting like a 14 year old whose spent her entire life in an abusive environment (and who iroh kind of threw to the wolves by the way) doesn’t get the same courtesy of a second chance. I... don't know. <3. Nationality The tide had ebbed somewhat now. So engrossed had he become in his work that he didn’t notice the one different scroll until it was suddenly being dangled like a fish hook in front of his face.

Hopefully you get notifications for when I edit a review!!! And!! in this house we fucking ignore the comics. from what we’ve seen in the show, it seems that these original benders are highly intelligent and have a consciousness- and they are able to understand and interpret the world better than other animals in the universe and in a way that is akin to the people. They wanted the design to kindo of give off a yin yang feeling so i decided to wrap them together. I don't know too much about them because i haven't watched Avatar in like 10 years lol. In 1959 Shaw moved to Hong Kong and built a complex of studios and residential buildings for actors, Movietown, that became the home base for Shaw Brothers moviemaking. So maybe it’s just a coincidence that the blue dragon just happens to resemble the blue spirit, maybe dragons in atla only come red and blue and all of this is just wild speculating!!! Fam!!!
At the end of the Hundred Year War, they were the last known surviving dragons, a species nearly hunted to extinction by firebenders after Fire Lord … This all started months ago because Dante Basco is both Zuko and Jake Long, and in discussions with old_friends_and_new on Tumblr with a few prompts they wrote.
Sir Run Run Shaw GBM CBE (November 1907 – 7 January 2014), also known as Shao Yifu and Siu Yat-fu, was a Hong Kong entertainment mogul and philanthropist.
(Now I’m not saying the blue dragon represents evil, and the red dragon represents good, though in one way it means that, but another deeper sense it doesn’t, the same way dark isn’t necessarily evil and light doesn’t necessarily mean good. [1], After the Hundred Year War, Ran and Shaw had at least one descendant, Druk.[2].
Fire Nation Two similar dragons appeared in Zuko's nightmare while he suffered from illness.

Whipped up a quick portrait of the OG firebending masters. The dragons were later visited by Prince Zuko and Avatar Aang after the former lost access to his firebending. AHHHH!!!
Ran and Shaw are two ancient dragons revered by the Sun Warriors as the original masters of firebending. Assistant Editor, Encyclopaedia Britannica. Bruckheimer, who developed a love for both film and photography while growing up in Detroit, graduated from the University of Arizona in…, John Halas and Joy Batchelor: After art school Batchelor became a commercial artist and met Halas in 1936 while working on Music Man (1938). He’d slogged through to the point where his right hand was beginning to cramp up, and yet he could still barely see over the piles of loose paper and scrolls on the spacious desk in front of him. This is Ran and Shaw from Avatar The Last Airbender.
True, it felt as if the reparations to the other nations and the restructuring of the Fire Nation itself was an endless process. Appa not only understands everything the characters say, he shares a bond with aang that is so deep, it’s spiritual. Thank you. Were it not for his newfound friends, his quickly married and anointed Fire Lady, and the few younger generals and courtiers that acted for the nation’s best interests and agreed with his way of doing so…Zuko wasn’t entirely certain that he would have been able to keep his head above water. Now back to the blue spirit real quick and the actual reason I typed all this up. 燃和燒 Ran and Shaw Fire Nation https://www.britannica.com/biography/Run-Run-Shaw, The Guardian - Obituary of Sir Run Run Shaw.

Ride or Die: GTA Style (Supporting Cast) ☠️, here’s deke shaw flying in to blast love and happiness at u on this fine valentine’s day ❤️, in which Zuko should've named his dragon 'Jake Long', Didn't expect it to loop so well but to my surprise it did, I actually giffed this scene quite a few years ago with the same colouring, honestly these shots of Zuko with the dragon made me tear the fuck up, ran or shaw im not sure which is which lol, idk why these shots got to me but here ya go, idk I was thinking about this in the shower, I really love Irohs character I'm not trying to have this be a roast sess, but I will say he didn't get called out on a lot of shit he should have been called out on, then people wanna drag azula like fuck off, she's barely more than a child meanwhile iroh was a grown ass man nearing retirement by the time he stopped being a war peddling dick, i would try for cute but i am only able to draw vaugely threatening, but thats the general zuko vibe before you get to the soft center.
These two dragons being representations of Sozin’s and Roku’s dragons. I truly think the dragons’ own morality and its refusal to wipe out other benders and peoples is what triggered Sozin to do this.
This space is for discussing changes to the article. Skin color
Sun Warriors, Iroh, Aang, Zuko
BUT anyway!
Sun Warriors Shaw and his brothers began producing films in Shanghai but in 1927 relocated to Singapore (then under British control), where they produced and distributed motion pictures and opened several movie theatres. They are able to communicate the true meaning of firebending through their multi-colored flames.[1].
Even the Dragons weren’t capable of making blue flames… so what does that mean for Azula? The blue dragon and the blue spirit even have the same color scheme and teeth and just!!!
After he returned to the Fire Nation, Iroh claimed that he had fought and slain the last surviving dragon, so as to preserve the secret of Ran and Shaw's existence from the rest of the world, who would hunt them otherwise.
He went into the filming industry with his brother, Runme Shaw, and established the Shaw Organization in 1926 and the Shaw Studios (formerly South Seas Film studio) in 1930.
The dragons were later visited by Prince Zuko and Avatar Aang after the former lost acc… this is my theory, I can’t think of any other reason why Sozin, who had his own beloved dragon, would want to kill them all and make them go extinct. One is red and one is blue. Which duh, but I mean more in the way of this!!! Be on the lookout for your Britannica newsletter to get trusted stories delivered right to your inbox. It does to me!! Plus ClipStudio has been the only software that I actually have felt good using lol! Run Run Shaw was born in Shanghai, China on October 4, 1907.
The Masters (by the Sun Warriors) Firebending
He was one of the most influential figures in the Asian entertainment industry. Allies Like I get there’s more to the story and maybe it’s false equivalency but he literally joked about burning Ba Sing Se to the ground and I doubt all the people that were killed as a result of his orders over his long military career really cared that he was “nicer” about it than Azula.
I would love a piece similar to this one, please get in touch when you can!! Even if you disregard my headcanon, I still think Sozin’s dragon did something to make him realize that these creatures were much more sentient than he realized- and when they wouldn’t bend to his will to use their fire to carry out destruction, that’s when I think Sozin started the brutal tradition of dragon “conquering”.
Summary: Just when heading the Fire Nation seems to be a manageable task, Zuko finds himself saddled with a duty that no human has been given in over a hundred years.
Teespring is the free and easy way to bring your ideas to life. So apparently Ran & Shaw, like the spirits Tui & La, circle around each other to symbolize Yin and Yang.
Now!!! Did not know that.
I don't know too much about them because i haven't watched Avatar in like 10 years lol. Zuko obviously faces the blue dragon (Azula, Sozin, the half of himself he’s struggled with all his life), And Aang faces the red dragon!
Ran and Shaw were once visited by Iroh, who was deemed worthy of learning the true essence of firebending. Claws, teeth, fire
Physical description
He went into the filming industry with his brother, Runme Shaw, and established the Shaw Organization in 1926 and the Shaw Studios (formerly South Seas Film studio) in 1930. Not that they were the only ones who wanted his head on a pike, but that didn’t make it any better.

But on the other hand this is avatar and if there’s one thing I know it’s that the writers drowned the show in so much symbolism it makes me want to puke and also flail about happily in it like a kid in a ball pit.
The details in the comics art are incredible. At the end of the Hundred Year War, they were the last known surviving dragons, a species nearly hunted to extinction by firebenders after Fire Lord Sozin began the tradition of killing them for glory.
Affiliation only difference is that he’s longer, fluffier, and more… angry and teenage, the l o n g boi eastern dragons were always my favorite, and I hope I did the original design justice!
Design your product, set a price, and start selling. After observing their movements for a while, Aang deduced that the dragons wanted them to perform the "Dancing Dragon", an ancient firebending form, with them. Teespring handles the rest - production, shipping, and customer service - and you keep the profit!
Ran and Shaw created massive streams of fire after deeming Aang and Zuko worthy of learning the art's origins. Oh gosh Azula has such an incredible potential to be something more than just a villain.
Setting out to learn the original form of firebending from Ran and Shaw, they journeyed to the cave of the masters, each carrying a piece of the Eternal Flame, which they would present to the masters as an offering.
He founded the Shaw Brothers Studio, one of the largest film production companies in Hong Kong, and TVB, the dominant television company in Hong Kong.
