    I'm slowly recruiting my family and one of my neighbors. I made her watch the finale with me a couple days after it came out and by the end she was in tears. She used to watch Avatar but kind of lost interest. Now I've gotten her hooked . I'm working on her with the game right now.

    Nice, a commercial! They didn't show much but it looks like you do get to customize your character to a good degree. There wasn't much though so I can't really comment on anything. September 15th! Nothing will ever beat the anticipation of July 14th 2008 though.

    Nothing in the immediate future, but I imagine that come July 2010, millions of avatards, former, and ones who remained loyal alike, will be unable to help but feel a lot of anticipation.

    The movie release will be insane. Avatar will actually be advertised, so I think the fan base will grow tremendously. TREMENDOUSLY. This MMO will be NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING compared to the hype of the movie.

    Thanks. The graphics for the fire and water look... recycled. :F Unless the stuff the Katara keeps shooting out is ice/snow. I'm still going to have to see more once the game is released but I am very happy that you can customize your character's appearances, items, etc.

    There is an interesting read I discovered on the USA Today's website regarding Nick's interest in the Avatar brand. According to the article, Nick believes that Avatar can become its "Harry Potter." I am guessing that after the ratings success of Book Three, Nick has now realized how valuable the Avatar brand is.

    http://www.usatoday.com/money/media/2007-09-20-avatar_N.htm

    OH MY GOODNESS. Could this really be true? From the sound of this, Nick is actually trying to take it's first steps toward moving away from it's current agenda, and trying out something new: Avatar, and more like it.

    I know that this is from 2007, but still. This really looks to be promising

    That's a very cool feature. I'm kind of disappointed they only showed the customization of a guy, but whatever. The graphics aren't the best, but the earthbending looks awesome, IMO.

    I think Nick realized that it needed a brand other than SpongeBob that can be associated with Nick. They have not created any bona-fide hits since SB (Avatar being the exception), whilst Disney has created a few hit franchises (Hannah Montana and Suite Life). Nick was already aware of the rabid fanbase and needed confirmation from Book Three's ratings that Avatar was not a fad. This is why they are making an MMO, a live-action movie...and possibly the (rumored) mini-episodes/hour-long movies

    But the movie has nothing to do with them, correct? So that's not their doing. The MMO, however, is quite surprising.

    I guess Nick really is serious about releasing this globally. Advertisement for the MMO has started here too (NZ), which is great. So it looks like there would be a pretty large player base when the game is released.

    Yesiree I know a couple people who saw the preview, without being Avatards, and already want to play the game.

    Paramount, MTV Films and Nick Studios are involved and they are all owned by Viacom...so in a sense Nick is involved.

    Sweet more publicity for Avatar then. Now I really do hope that there is a f2p version as well.

    We are now a week away from the game launching. I am expecting a barrage of announcements this week. We should get some news on the exact time it will launch and if you must pay to play. Remember, for those who have Nicktoons to tune in this Friday night at 6:30 pm, EDT. That may be when Nick releases the special content. Keep checking the first post of this thread for any new announcements.
