    I don't think this has been said but there's supposed to be two tv spots during the Olympics. Haven't said whether they'll have new footage or just be the super bowl spot though. http://twitter.com/leDoctor

    Oh, and no M. Night cameo at least in this movie. What if he ends up being Jet... or Toph?

    Hey gang,

    Long time no talk... Anyway, just wanted to pop in and see how all the fans are doing. I watched the trailer and boy am I excited about the movie even more now!

    So I Google'd the movie and News results. Can you believe that I read people wanting to boycott the movie for the casting!

    I am not happy about the casting, but I have a better understanding why he might have gone the way he did.

    1st off, whoever was supposed to play Aang, has to be able to perform some of the more difficult manuevers in Martial Arts. So instead of getting some kid who may know nothing about Martial Arts, he grabbed a kid that is well versed.

    The other thing is that he needed to get good English speaking actors. Sure he could have brought in actors that would play true to the part, but what if they have heavy accents? The last point I need to make is that we should all make sure to see the movie. Otherwise, the movie will flop and we can forget about 2 and 3...

    Think it over guys...

    Well in the first teaser you see someone throwing fire at an earthbender, and that earthbender has the same hat as good 'ol Cabbage Guy, so of course i assume that it's infact the Cabbage Guy who can now earthbend.

    I agree with you. lol but I don't think the "boycott" will influence the box office results at all. The racebenders are only a small amount of people.

    I agree. It seems so immature of people to boycott this movie. People are freaking out like 5 year olds and it's so annoying!!

    Yeah, that stupid racebenders thing is dumb. I think I need to spam their site. Just to wake them up from being hypocrites. I bet they stereo type all the time.

    Everyone look at the 1:11 - 1:13 mark on the trailer. There is a person fighting with Aang and he ducks right before Aang airbends over him. Are you all thinking what I'm thinking? ;p

    The wig is awesome. Don't diss the wig, gives a more demonic look.

    I was following on these updates on Youtube and they say that the fire nation helmets have ponytails on them, to compensate for the fact that Zuko(Dev Patel) isn't wearing a pony tail. They may be different from the awesome three spiked masks the firebenders wear in the cartoon, but I think it would look just as sick with the ponytails in live action.
