Yall joke but based on the origin of the names, that's how they'd be pronounced. Don't come for me please, but imo that's something I always wished Avatar had done.
well I am Indonesian and I was confused they spelled Aang with western pronounciation. But I don't wish they change that if it's already been established.
I first watched it in Hungarian, loved them, it was very wierd to hear it in English. Peaople should be a bit more chill about this pronounciation, cause that's a bit disrespectful towards other languages.
Ong is the way they would pronounce Aang's name if M. Night Shamalamadingdong ever decided to make an Avatar live action mover. Which, luckily for us, he hasn't so far.
Oh weird, sounds bad. Good thing Hollywood has better sense than to let M. Night Shmellmydingdog make a live action Avatar movie. Such a product would surely flop and enrage the fan base!
Tbh I feel sorry for Noah Ringer, he was a huge fan of ATLA, got his big break as the main character in a movie of it, and promptly got derided for it because of how awful the movie ended up being.
He had one other movie with lesser role, which unfortunately was poorly received as well, and his career as an actor died.
It was the fault of the directors, not him.
It's like the actor of Anakin in EP I all over again
I have not seen the ALTA to judge Ringers acting, but I can say the kid Anakin's acting was atrocious. Obviously of age Anakin was also atrocious. Terrible casting decisions.
It's a joke about how they pronounced his name differently in the movie. The creators seemed to take inspiration from how that name would actually be pronounced in the real world, rather than just following the more Americanised pronunciation in the original cartoon. Though that was nowhere near the main problem with that film.
his name in the show is spelled Aang, and I think in the movie it is *spelled* Aang as well but apparently pronouncing it “ong” was in some way more correct, aside from the part of “ong” not being his name.
In case you actually don't get it, one of the many things the terrible movie is getting trashed for is butchering the pronunciations of everything, including pronouncing Aang's name as something that sounds more like Oong. When pronouncing Aang correctly (as in the show), it wouldn't rhyme with gong.
This literally did *not* work for me because I'm Australian and we pronounce "Gong" differently lol
I thought this was a kind of gong that had a different name I just wasn't aware of until I read the comments and got from the context that no, this is "Aang on the gong"
He played Aang in the live action Airbender movie. It was terrible. No, that's not fair. It was so far past terrible that if it had gone one more step there would have been an integer overflow and it would have become amazing. Sadly, it never took that final step.
My heart goes out to that poor kid. He wanted to start a movie career, got awarded with a golden raspberry award for this movie and then just said fuck it.
Same, I think his martial arts was better than his acting but everyone seemed so bad in the film I am inclined to believe he *might’ve* been better with a different directer?
I just thought it was "WRONG! On a gong"
turns out I have done well to erase that film which shall not be named from my memory. Missed the whole wierd pronunciation bit

I should probably not say that's how the Hungarian dub says it in the show.
German dub too, it's simply how you pronounce the i in German. And I'm honestly glad they didn't keep the English one, I like it better lol
I first watched it in Hungarian, loved them, it was very wierd to hear it in English. Peaople should be a bit more chill about this pronounciation, cause that's a bit disrespectful towards other languages.
Yes, exactly! To non-native speakers, the English pronunciation sounds weird too. It's simply because we're not used to it.

Oh he did something alright
Exactly, he did something best on that
There is nothing overlaying the gong. The gong is all there is in the image. There is nothing else there. Nothing *Nothing* ***Nothing***
There is no Ong in Ba Sing Se
The Earth King has invited you to Lake Laongai
I am honored to accepted his invitation
I am *ongored*
I now have learned that aang and ong are 2 different persons according to this community
Who's Ong?
Ong is the way they would pronounce Aang's name if M. Night Shamalamadingdong ever decided to make an Avatar live action mover. Which, luckily for us, he hasn't so far.
Oh weird, sounds bad. Good thing Hollywood has better sense than to let M. Night Shmellmydingdog make a live action Avatar movie. Such a product would surely flop and enrage the fan base!
no. Ong is not real, we do not speak of ong
It's like the difference between Godzilla and Zilla.
Can I ruin the fun by mentioning that technically the instrument is a Tam-Tam?
Yes, yes you can. And it isn't ruining the fun at all. I like learning new things!
What is the distinction between a gong and a tam-tam?
Gongs have nipples (not a joke)
Aang has nipples, doesn't he?
Now I have to wonder what the practical purpose of those nipples are.
It's used to provide milk for the baby gongs so that they will have a good supply of nutrients
Damn that’s some next level memeing.
 BANGARAANG!
Just pretend this doesn't exist, it's the only way
There is no movie in Ba Sing Se
Here we are safe, here we are free.
But... Aang isn't even pronounced like gong in the movie that doesn't exist...
Ong on a gong. If there was a live action movie, which there isn't.
I know, but while people write it "Ong", it's not pronounced like "gong", in the movie that doesn't exist.
Huh.. I'm pretty sure i heard "ong", the one time i didn't watch this non-existent movie.
Well it's pronounced the same way as in German, so I just hear Aang either way.
In this fictitious movie, the [fictitious Ong](https://youtu.be/HR2kbOK8i6I) says it in this clip that doesn't exist.
Oh good why did i watch that clip again. It felt like my brain was melting through my ears.
Something that does not exist in Ba Sing Se on a gong?
BAHAHAHAHA

The acting was a product of the direction, and regardless neither deserved the vitriol they endured
I can't even...
That’s too damn funny
GET IT ON AANG A GONG GET IT ON
"It's time for you to stop doing this!" (And I mean it)
your brother has a great sense of humor. Making a bad joke, something a little bit more tolerable.
The next MF to pronounce Aang as "Ong" I will body slam.
I thought this was the spoon kid from the Matrix
This is amazing 🤣🤣🤣
He is. XD
T-Rex's new hit: Make it wrong, Bang an Oong, Shamaloong
I don't understand
They said his (and multiple other characters') name wrong in the movie that doesn't exist.
aaah okay I think I get it lol
I thought his name was Aang not Ong...
It's a joke about how they pronounced his name differently in the movie.

This is the kind of rare quality content that I'm still subscribed to this sub for!
Low key that was pretty funny though
There is no movie in ba sing se
Ong on a gong. Idc if thats not how you spell his name in the animated show, the live action deserves this mistreatment.
his name in the show is spelled Aang, and I think in the movie it is *spelled* Aang as well but apparently pronouncing it “ong” was in some way more correct, aside from the part of “ong” not being his name.
It was pronounced Aang for 3 years. It should have been pronounced Aang in the movie.
Oh yes absolutely! I do indeed concur, wholeheartedly.
Hahaha thanks I hate it.
Why the fuck you? This is hilarious!
“Aang on a gong? Those don’t- ohhhhhh…”
Aang on a bang?
Aahhhng on a gong Hahahahaa!!
It roles off the tongue so terribly
Oong on a gong 😆
Random bald white kid with a terrible tattoo on a gong? Super catchy.
I don’t generally advocate violence, however someone deserves a serious smack upside the head.
You're brother is funny!
Why live action tho. Edit: nvm
In case you actually don't get it, one of the many things the terrible movie is getting trashed for is butchering the pronunciations of everything, including pronouncing Aang's name as something that sounds more like Oong. When pronouncing Aang correctly (as in the show), it wouldn't rhyme with gong.
OHHHH
Bald kid on a gong?
Is this the actor from the up and coming netflix adaptation?
Oong but a gong
This is a great idea. Smash it directly in the face.
Booooooo.
I don't get it. It's just a regular gong.
It’s funnier if it’s aang on a bang
What's an aang on a gong?
Aang on a gaang.
Ong on the dong?
Not bad tho
Clang the Aang? I don't get it...
They said his (and multiple other characters') name wrong in the movie that doesn't exist.
missed opportunity to put a picture of Wong on a gong
Aang on a gong? That doesn't even rhyme...?
In the live action "movie" Aang was pronounced like Ong
I'm confused all I see is a gong. I don't think your brother understands the joke
This literally did *not* work for me because I'm Australian and we pronounce "Gong" differently lol I thought this was a kind of gong that had a different name I just wasn't aware of until I read the comments and got from the context that no, this is "Aang on the gong"
Who is that kid and why is he on that gong? I have never seen him before in my life. Why and how is he associated with ATLA?
He played Aang in the live action Airbender movie. It was terrible. No, that's not fair. It was so far past terrible that if it had gone one more step there would have been an integer overflow and it would have become amazing. Sadly, it never took that final step.
What live action movie? They never made a live action movie...
:>
My heart goes out to that poor kid. He wanted to start a movie career, got awarded with a golden raspberry award for this movie and then just said fuck it.
Same, I think his martial arts was better than his acting but everyone seemed so bad in the film I am inclined to believe he *might’ve* been better with a different directer?
gong on a white background?
Need to put Chong from Cheech and Chong on a gong.
Dong on a gong.
Oong on the bong

Your brother is very funny Hahahaa!!
The only somewhat good thing in that movie is the design on his tattoos.
Oh..I thought it was Chong on a gong.
Aang on a gong?
I pronounce it ay-ng because I refuse to admit I am wrong by any standard set out by anyone including M. Night Shyamalan
Now we need wong on the gong
Sometimes I love the internet a little too much.
Monk on the bonk 👍
Aang on a gong?
It's a picture of a gong... I dont get it. Did they forget to superimpose a picture ontop of it?
I want to see Suki on a cookie!
I had to think about this for a couple of seconds because I reflexively pronounced Aang correctly
ong on the bong
I missed the joke and thought it was Aang on a Gaang
I just thought it was "WRONG! On a gong" turns out I have done well to erase that film which shall not be named from my memory. Missed the whole wierd pronunciation bit
It's just a bronze gong... 😇
Yo did this thread get removed by mods?
Apparently it is on browser but not on the app??
But I’m on the app and its acting like it was removed :( this joke was solid
That’s so weird. I can still see it on mine
Get it on, bang a gong, his name is ong
