    Welcome to the boards, Ranger8060! And I thought I was the only one stalking him...
    Oh, and I'm totally going to wait outside the theater. I always wanted to do that.

    it would be so cool if the whole avatar could be the next star wars. If the films are that successful i bet we'll see more than the first three. Maybe a back story of how all the events came to be. The first one being about kyoshi and her story. At the end roku is born. The next is about roku life. And in the third everything is shown and set up for the boy in the iceburg

    can i have whatever you guys are on? Yur seriously nuts if you think avatar will have popularity anywhere near starwars. We'd be lucky to get near madagascar box office wise.

    I am going to expand my idea.
    If the first three films are successful enough (they probably wont but we can dream) i would love to see prequels

    First Film- About Book One
    Second - About Book Two
    Third - About Book Three

    The fourth film can take place in kyoshi's time period. Were is shown how to train, stopping the great and creating the secret police of the city, which will set up book two. in the end she dies and we learn why roku was put in were the royals live

    The fifth film can be about roku's time. Just like the episode the avatar and the fire lord but more detail. In the end aang is born and the fire lord waits for the comment to arrive

    the sixth film can be about the mass genocide of the airbenders, and maybe how everything is set up for the first film. Like the attack of the southern water tribe and such

    what do u think?

    I really appreciate you for being REALISTIC. some people let the craze and desire just take over themselves.

    For example like new Twilight movie, It's opening box office obviously smash the other movies, but during the second box office weekend it fell below Four Christmases (the was about a $40-30 mil gap). i was SOOO shocked, i thought the fan base was so intense that Twilight would've just kept sweeping the box office for awhile.

    so it'll be interesting of how this movie will turn out. btw my expectations aren't that high compared to most of you. (and i dont wanna sound wierd, but im a pretty good predictor when it comes to anticipation of expectancy. please dont bag on me for this)

    it all sounds good (really!), but it'll get tiring and somewhat endless. if they keep making films or way more episodes, that "lust" for the show will fade. that's why the producers dedcided for it to end. look at all the other shows that still air, its actually too much and tiring cause they've never ended. im actually kinda okay that ATLA had its last episodes.

    thnx and lots of people thought the twilight movie wasn't that good. most people who like the book will hate the movie. lots of people i talked to hate the main female character bella i think is her name. Plus the movie was a chic flick. So of course its not going to fair as well as lotr.

    i agree i am just throwing out ideas. Usually MNIGHT films open with a weekend total of 30 million. So added with the fan base of avatar i am guessing the film will open with 35-50 million and end with a 120 million. Unless of course if it gets positives reviews and good media attention, if that happens more money but because it's nick i dont see that happeneing

    Don't forget Avatar is the top kids show in some countries. Even if it doesn't do great in America it will still probably make enough money overall to be considered a success.

    The lastest news is that production is set to begin in March so we finally have a specific month. This is directly from the mouth of the producer so its legit too.
