I totally agree with you all. I also think that, when they really had to make Amon a bender, they should have shown that he deeply regrets his own power like Jeong Jeong. And they should had make his brackgound deeper.

For example that he turned into a bloodbender criminal after fleeing the North Pole, but then he caused the death of his girlfriend in fury or something like this. I mean this "oh, my dad was such a bad person" really begins to suck. Everytime the main villians of Avatar have either parent-complex in some way (Ozai, Azula, Amon, Tarrlok, and even Jet) or no real reasons but being a bad person (Zhao, Long Feng, Combustion man, Yakone). The only exceptions so far is Hama who drove into instanity for serious reasons.

Amon could have been the exception. He could be a person who really wants to fight bending even as bender, or better, he could be a non-bending messiah. Yeah. A real Anti-Avatar, sent by the Spirit World. That would have been cool.
