Well, I didn't see any club for this awesome show. If there is please show me, but till then! This is the club!

Just so you all know, the newest trailer is out!

Literally, this is the new trailer that will air during the super bowl on February 7th 2010.

SIGN ME UP I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH. Why'd it have to end so soon?? :sad:

It's one of the few shows where I love all the characters to death, and I mean all of them. There isn't a single character that I don't like. Plus the plotline, animation, comedy... it's all brilliant.

Now excuse me while I watch the new trailer again! Hopefully the movie will be good and attract new fans to the series. If not, look out M. Night Shyamalan, I'm going to be ticked off...

But yeah. Add me as a member, please! :P

OOh, I know! I loved the show so much! It really felt like it ended wayyy too soon. :(

I've watched the latest trailer like sixteen bazillion times since it came out. It's so epic.
I don't think you should worry about it being bad, though. It looks amazing! Wasn't the music awesome in that trailer? :fangirl:

Yay! Now I'm on the members list! :lol:

The show did end too soon! I'm still waiting for what happened to Zuko's mother and Azula after she was defeated... >_>

Yes, the trailer music was pretty good, now that you mention it! I looooove the show's music, too, and I was thinking that it would be pretty awesome if they did a mix of a new soundtrack as well as some tracks from the series.

On the director, I originally didn't think the director mattered because the two creators of Avatar are supposedly working really closely with him to make the movie really good. However, lots of my friends who have seen Shyamalan's other movies are angry because "The Happening," "Lady in the Water," etc supposedly weren't very good at all (and got panned by critics). I think (and hope) "The Last Airbender" will still be good, simply because it's Avatar the Last Airbender (lol), but I haven't seen any of Shyamalan's other movies, so.. I'm a little worried it won't be as amazing as it should be. Also, the actors: Zuko is NOT INDIAN, he's ASIAN, and Sokka and Katara are NOT WHITE, they're INDIAN (and, the ultimate annoyance, Sokka's Jasper from Twilight!). If they're good actors, sure, I can overlook the problems easy, but I imagined the actors at least looking somewhat like the characters in the series. I guess I just wanted to see a real-life Sokka and Zuko, heheh.

Don't listen to the bashers of M. Night S. His movies are really good. They're what movies should be. The only bad thing about his movies is that they're so short. But on story, directing, choice of music, actors, etc, M. Night is really good.

People just bag on him because his movies are so unique and not in the norm. People just forget that a movie is supposed to be how he makes movies. Who wants to predict the ending of a movie. That's just boring.


And I don't see what the problem is with the actors. M. Night obviously really loves all of the actors he chose. Instead of just finding "hot" actors he chose actors that actually can pull off their stunts and do acting at the same time.

Dev Patel(Zuko)is going to be awesome. I don't know how sad I'd be if it was Jesse McCartney playing Zuko. And Aang(can't remember the actors name)is the best choice for him, I think. Katara's actress in the movie is really good I think. It looks just like the cartoon Katara.
And OMGOSH I LOVE Jackson as Sokka. Jackson looks just like the real Sokka and I love it!

Really? Maybe I should watch some of his movies, then. I love unpredictable endings :) And didn't he win several awards for his epic music?

Yeah, I'm SO glad Jesse McCartney isn't Zuko anymore. That would have been... just awkward, seriously.

I know Dev Patel is going to be a great actor, it's just that I keep seeing the Slumdog Millionaire's Jamal instead of Zuko :ermm:. With the Aang and Katara actors I'm a little nervous because they're new and don't have a lot of acting experience, but, hey, look how it worked for Harry Potter.

And Jackson Rathbone, from the one picture I've seen, he looks a little too stern for Sokka, but heck, it's one picture. I need more, where are all the trailers? I've already overwatched the two they've released so far. Why can't that Percy Jackson movie come out already so I can see the full thing? And how about some actual dialogue please please please?

Actually, there's some report that people say Aang and Katara's actors are amazing.

Here's the report;

Okay.

I have some kind of report. Before I continue, I guess I was wrong about him and watching the cartoons. Although he hasn't seen the whole series, he has watched the cartoon here and there about a handful of times, so he does have some idea of what the cartoon is all about.

We delved into a bit more:

Acting - He loved the acting of all the parties involved, particularly Zuko's (said he was pretty intense), Aang's, and Katara's. He GUSHED about Iroh's performance, and to quote: "In the cartoon, he's short and stout, where in the movie, you can just tell he's someone who can kick some major ass." -- I'm assuming he looks more built in the movie? I asked him if Sokka was comedic in the movie, since he was very much so in the cartoon. He said yes, with the exception that "he wasn't falling all over his face, like in the cartoon." Going back to movie Iroh, he mentioned that movie Iroh, despite the disparity in the appearance, was portrayed EXACTLY as he was in the cartoon, as being laid back and kind. The fact that Toub is playing this slacker-ish character, while still emanating a "kick-ass" aura, is pretty amazing.

Fighting - The Kung-Fu looked like Kung-Fu [he has done this art for most of his life], although his one complaint about it was that "it was too slow." As in, they would do a series of intricate moves, then something happens (I'm assuming the bending), where he'd just take a crossbow, and take the guy out. Of course, he's looking at it practically, but I did explain that a lot of these extra movements do hold some significance for the bending they're attempting to accomplish.

Bending - It's pretty much confirmed folks. Firebenders generally don't produce their own fires, WITH A FEW EXCEPTIONS (he wouldn't clarify). Although, a sub-theme of the movie is about the Fire Nation looking for a permanent way for all firebenders to be able to produce their own flames without a source. Apparently, in the movie, the firebenders ALWAYS have an open flame or fire with them, at least when any fighting occurs.

Rather see Jamal than the character he plays in Skins... :angel:

Shyamalan has made terrible movies lately. The Happening was terrible, Lady in the Water was terrible, but thankfully he IS a good director and he's using an already written story so I'm hoping he doesn't screw this movie up. The guy playing Zhao I won't be able to take seriously because of his scenes on The Daily Show...

Oh, snap! That's what he's from. I think he's going to be good.

And I thought the Happening was a brilliant movie... maybe I'm just a rabid M. Night fan :P

You want to be added right?
