    When they said they wanted to be Katara, or Toph, or someone else. (*sigh*...I got flamed*)

    I predict there will be alot of missing children due to sending in videos to random email adresses. seriously people you have a snowballs chance in he// to get a audition in this movie. If yu have any intellegence get in touch with a REAL talent agency and audition through them. as for what race and what the actors look like it does matter but so does acting ability. one of the reasons why i said this movie will suck. they will have to find people that look like the characters and can act, which is prettymuch impossible. just like the other live action movies they wont be like the show. i hope they don't just cast people who can act otherwise whats the point?

    well i think obviously acting ability should come first and foremost, then as long as they have a slight resemblance to the characters it will work. heck even topher grace made a halfway decent eddie brock, even though he looked nothing like the comic/cartoon brock(spider-man III reference).

    I just saw the "leaked" ad and on the advertising schedule it clearly states that the Avatar Movie Release date is Fall 2009. Since it was originally announced in January of 2007 and films typically take 3 years to make I would guess it would be likely to be released later in the season. (Personally I think they should release it on the Winter solstice, just after Fall)

    It is still early in production so this is still subject to change but if all goes smoothly we should see the movie being released in 1 1/2 years, give or take a couple months.

    ~DrAvatar

    P.S. Sorry I haven't been on very much recently. I wont be on much for the next couple weeks either since Finals are coming up but after that I'll try to be on more.

    well thats good news i guess. It makes you think whether anything else is accurate.

    Wouldn't hold my breath on that. That was posted two days ago, so Nick has probably already changed their mind about finally showing the finale... So i'm not getting my hopes up...

    And yeah, we know there's going to be three original movies... *pokes this thread along with the almost 450 posts* XD

    I think that girl from the Naked Brothers Band would be a good Katara. Think about it.

    -She's the right age
    -She looks asian
    -She's used to being the romantic love interest of the main character who's two years younger than her.

    I keed. I keed. (sorta...)

    Doesn't matter how old he is, he doesn't look old. He's in his 30s and looks like a teen, get some Zuko hair on him and it'll be good.

    He just needs a scar, makeup, and some moral angst.

    I would actaully be quite pleased if they cast him for Zuko, it would definetly raise my excitment for the movies. He seems like an excellent match.

    they would just need to put a lot of make-up on him, and i think he would fit the role pretty nicely.
