    Sorry if this has already been posted/asked but I don't have time to read through all the threads! Could someone post a pic of the two actors rumored to be in the movie? I have tried to find pics but am having no luck.

    lol, I think I already said this but I wish they'd get a 12yr old to play Aang, 14yr old for Katara, etc. That would be nice for a change.

    I find it ironic that so many people support Zuko's voice actor playing Zuko even though he is in is 30s but everyone is against the rumored actor to play Aang since he's 17 or 18 years old.

    lol, it's pretty hypocritical. I wonder if the same people are saying both.

    They'll probably make some stupid argument that the age difference isn't as great betweem a 12 & 18 year old as an older teenager & an adult, which is not true.

    Yes it is true I don't know if you've heard of this thing called puberty. Let me see I weighed about 120 when I was 12 and at 18 I weighed 170 most of it muscle lets not even mention the height difference. Who hears looks like their 12 when they are 18 anyone?

    The only way I could see Dante Basco playing Zuko is if he were ten years younger. Granted, he looks young but (in my opinion) not young enough to play a 17yr old. Did anyone ever see Hook? He played Rufio. I love that movie! ??

    People also change just as much through their 20s. An 18 year old can have a completly different body from a 35 year old. Once someone gets into their 30s they begin to deteriorate pysically though its different for each person.

    True but not nearly as much as a 12 and 18 year old. Also most of those changes can be masked through lighting and make up that's why a lot of 20 some year olds play high schoolers.

    I nominate M Jackson for Zuko. He would look something like this.
    Zuko: "Uhh yeah... happy candy... from the happy company, just uhh get in the van.. I mean ship."

    Two things:

    First, I saw a trailer for Shyamalalalalallamaman's latest movie 'The Happening' in the cinema today. It's one of those disaster movies, like "The Day After Tomorrow" or "Cloverfield". I don't know, it looks okay, not my kind of film though.

    If I see that movie, will it be any indication of how the Avatar movies will turn out?

    Second, Will Dee Bradley Baker play Appa and Momo in the movie? What do you think?

    1. I dont think that movie will have any indication of how the Avatar movies will turn out, other than S-money being an awesome director. But he has done lots of different kinds of movies, so it's not like he's stuck on one type of movie-style.

    2. I think Dee Bradley Baker should play Appa and Momo. He'll be in a costume and everything! j/k....but i do think he should voice their parts. They will probably have Appa and Momo built, and have Dee Bradley Baker to the voices/sounds.
