    Yeah, I don't recognize any of the current posters. It seemed like once the series ended, they all either stopped coming here or jumped on a different show's forum. I'll be popping in every once and awhile, checking for movie updates and such; the days of the intense ATLA shipping wars have died and I can't help but feel a little saddened but also at peace that they're over.

    Hey Allie, you can just call me Valin if you'd like.

    I bet this forum will fill up again when the film comes out next year

    I miss those golden days of waiting for new episodes, don't you all?
    I'm having a bout of AWS at the moment, so I though I'd pop in here, looking for encouraging news about the movie. Too bad I didn't find any.
    Is it just me, or are most, if not all, of the cast members nothing what we would have pictured? I'm not being racist in the least, but, seriously, the cast now has Caucasians AND South Asians, but no East Asians, and I'm utterly confused. Dev Patel's a great actor. Just not how I pictured Zuko. When I heard they would film it in Philly, I was so excited, me living in the Philly 'burbs. Now that I have a car and a license, I don't really feel the need to stalk these cast members at all.
    It's sad, people. I'm sad.

    I will, hopefully. I haven't made all of my plans for the movie yet, so I'll just have to wait unti it gets closer to the date and see.

    I'm not sure about the midnight screening but I'd probably be there the next day. (Public transportation is not that reliable after 10:30...) I was wondering before the movie comes out, are they going to start releasing more merchandise? I, personally, would love some more variety of official t-shirts and stuff.

    I'm sure if the movie does well, Hot Topic will have a couple shirts for the movie and such.

    I would like a Water Tribe shirt. Reminds me of the four house shirts for Harry Potter.

    Or some nice action pose-y shirts of the Gaang... although those might be possibly based on the live-action version. Still, I'd buy an Air Nomad or Water Tribe shirt.

    Yes, there is going to be merchandise released for the film. Remember, Paramount is hoping that TLA is going to be an unequivocal success and the next powerhouse franchise. They are going to, pardon my French, market the hell out of this movie. Toys, manga, t-shirts, and posters are going to be released.

    Also, here is an interesting but short interview with James Newton Howard. JNH is the composer for TLA. He does not mention the movie during the interview, but it is still an interesting interview. The music of the animated series was exceptional, and it is heartening to know that an exceptional composer is working on the movie.
