Though the character design is different (Zuko's uncle is supposed to be fat, goddamn it scream ) ... it looks very interesting ... I think I have another movie I want to watch ...

As for the bending ... Earth Bending Rocks (pun intended) ...

Water bending 4 life.

Seriously though, I hope this movie does well, but as a fan of the television series I am positively mortified that they might screw it up. This one is going to be a fine line for Hollywood to tread, as the fans are morbidly fanatical where this show is concerned.

When I first saw the trailer, I thought, "Wow, they are taking one of my favorite shows and going in a completely different direction." I was put off, but still wanted to see it.

Then I came across THIS in the ED.

I highly recommend that all fans of the show take a look at this before deciding to go see the movie.

The videos in the OP are freaking awesome, though! That's so neat that each bending uses it's own martial art; I feel silly for not noticing it before!

I still watching this movie ...

for several reasons ...

1) I loved the show ... might as well show some support
2) Intrigued how Hollywood interpreted the show
3) Cuz I will probably have nothing better to do on a Friday night

I could care less about all the political and racial bullshit ... it's a movie ... as long as they got the message across then I'll be happy with it ...

Obviously it is up to the individual.

I loved the show and that's why I'm NOT seeing the movie. The creators of the show are PISSED at how Hollywood is ruining it. I don't know, I respect the creators so much that it hurts me to see their creation get turned around like that for a profit.

I'll still be curious about it, of course. You guys will have to let me know if it held up all right!
