In her last post on Twitter, Lindsay Elis bid goodbye to her fans. In an earlier post, she found herself in the middle of the huge controversy as she had referred to Raya… as a remake of the Avatar movie.
She deleted her tweets after furious keyboarders knocked her for her comments. They said that she was taking 2 diverse fragments of work and clubbing them under a similar category. She had said then that she considers the movie as basically Avatar…she said that it was similar to having all one fantasies published during the past several years.
She tweeted later in an effort to explain her earlier tweet. She said that she was implying that basically all properties that are Asian-inspired seemed the same. But Avatar’s basic framework has become popular that has risen over Asian stuff.
