The OTHER Avatar (Airbender)

Brokinarrow · 02-08-2010, 01:00 PM

Anyone see the preview during the superbowl? I'd caught a couple episodes of the series (by accident really) and thought it was an interesting show. The movie looks like it has potential though, going to go back and watch the show now.

My husband is so excited about this movie. I saw the trailer and it looks like it will be good.

the show was amazing....so interesting and the story brings you in and wanting more....m night is a great director and the best part is his only flaw as of late (dumb plot twist) cant be done with this movie because he didnt write it and the story is already set from the show.

*Mindz* · 02-08-2010, 01:41 PM

unless he changes the story. M Night Shamalayan is known for drawing everything out and some of his movies are really bad storyline.

You are correct as this will be different because the story is there, so I want to see how the movie is. =)

Avatar, the last airbender is based from a cartoon show my son has followed since the beginning. He is now looking forward to the movie.

I guess we''ll have to see it, and see how it compares to the TV show.

I actually forgot that Night was directing this one. And I the animated series actually won some Emmys I guess, so I'm looking forward to watching it from the beginning

My son loves Last Airbender...so yes I will be going to see this when it comes out...he can't drive himself yet!

SikMaro · 02-09-2010, 01:48 PM

I saw the screening of it last week, it was only 60% finished and m night shamalon was there!!!! it was pretty cool, def would see it when it comes out! its about 2 hrs long.

Excellent series, not really sure about how the movie will turn out though...

The movie was fantastic. I haven't seen the anime yet so I'm not sure how well it covers the storyline, but cinematography was awesome. Not too many 3d effects and nothing comes out of the screen, but the movie itself was great!

2ndgenz28 · 07-01-2010, 06:02 PM

I dunno, last night they showed a special sneak peak at part of the movie and when it was done; all I thought to myself was " Is that it?"
I didn't see anything that will make me rush out to see it at the movies.

Steve Dallas · 07-01-2010, 06:09 PM

Ebert gave this movie 1 star.

I hope that isn't true because I liked the Series and the previews have looked good.

*Mindz* · 07-01-2010, 06:16 PM

I go to movies to be entertained. It entertained me.

Just know that it's going to be a series of movies.

Good to hear the few that watched it liked it. My son and I have watched the whole animated series a few times and look forward to checking out the movie this weekend!!
