    if they did, i would totally make an outfit and go. i dont care that i will be waaaay older than the 11 year olds. that makes it more fun!
    Lol, yeah. In the UK the premieres always take place at the Leicester Square Odeon in London. I will definitely go there for the UK premiere of the movies.

    To London it is!
    Yes, to London! Wow, that was fast, and 2 years early. I wonder if I should hang around for the Olympics too?

    yeah, why not.

    the last thing anyone has to worry about is "special effects". your comparing the 2d animation to CGI. HELLO!?
    im not able to link this info. but shamalayian(?) has stated that he wont be over using special fx for the sake of it. but he said that they will be "visually striking" in the movie. he earlier stated that this project will be like another star wars. but im sure that has already been mentioned here

    That would be great, I hate movies that pimp out the effects.

    Hi everyone! I'm new to this thread so forgive me if I say stuff that's already been brought up or been proven wrong.

    When I first heard about this movie I was like "WTF THEY'RE NOT GOING TO LET IT DIE GRACEFULLY ARE THEY??" I thought that it would just be another reason to keep it going and to keep tht merchandise popular.
    But now that I'm hearing more about how much M. Night Shamalan(sp?) cares about the show and how the original creators will get some say in it, I'm actually kind of looking forward to it.
    The one thing that I would find totally awesome would be if they got that guy who does Zuko's voice (sorry I forget his name) to actually play him in the film. I've seen what he looks like and I think he could do it!
    Thanks for reading my comment!

    Dante Bosco (aka "Ruffio") would play an amazing Zuko. I mean, he's already got the voice, just slap on an eye scar and pony tail + bald head and he's good to go!

    Does anybody know what the story style for the movie will be? I mean, will it be like a recap of everything that happened in the series or will it be something like the story after the series ended? I would prefer the story after because if they tried to recap everything in the series, they wouldn't be able to get everything in and some important scenes would be lost. It'd be just like a movie based off a book.

    It's going to be a trilogy, a movie for each season. I'm sure it wont give the same feel the show does, but it has the potential to be very epic in its own way.

    Okay, that kind of recap could work. I can't believe we have to wait two more years before it airs though.

    Dante Basco is such a cool name!!!! Haven't ever seen him though.

    I don't know about anybody else- but I think Zuko is extremely attractive (even the scar). So, I hope the actor they choose can do justice to Zuko's hotness and persona.

    Dante Basco

    I still say he'd make a great RL Zuko. I mean, the voice is half the battle.

    Again, all he needs is a scar and moral angst.

    that would be amazing if he played Zuko. i wish somehow the movie actors could have the same voices as the voice actors, because i think it will be weird to hear our beloved characters in different voices. we will have to see.

    I think that his current voice actor is actually going through that right now. He's fourteen years old right now.

    Yeah, but unless I'm mistaken, Dante is close to 30 years old already, isn't he? He might be a little old to pull off the role of a 17 year old.
