    I watched the movie and it was pretty awesome. The acting could have been better though.I loved how they mashed certain stories together.


    Yay someone likes it!!

    I actually like it despite all of the grief is got from its reviews, but I can sum up the only thing i didn't like.


    Three words: Too. Much. Zuko.

    I thought the movie was pretty good actually. And what with you cch17! Zuko was the best in the whole movie! I think his character was the best and Dev Patel was the best actor (not that I think the other actors were bad just Dev was the best). I LOVE that they had more Zuko than Sokka...

    Really? That's awesome news! Maybe with Bryke helping, the next movie will get some semi-decent reviews!

    Well, the Bryke part will be awesome, no doubt. But M. Knight Shamaicantspellhislastname has clearly proven himself to be absolutely AWFUL when it comes to the Avatar movies. And he's still a co-writer for the next movie.

    So I figure 50% Bryke + 50% Knight = 1/2 a good movie = semi-decent reviews on said movie.

    M.N.:Well I thought Toph should be left ou-


    Bryke:Alright so cast an Asian as Toph


    M.N.:Well I thought Toph would be played by Megan Fo-


    Bryke:Here's an idea why don't you go get us some water

    Yeah!

    Only I'd hope that Bryke would suggest Toph be Chinese, specifically. Because the Earth Kingdom is based off of China. (I feel that if the cast has to be race-specific, it should really, truly be race specific. Not skin-color specific.)

    Hmmmm... That part about money makes me worry, because it looks like we may not even get the sequel. (Especially because the first movie still hasn't made back what it cost.)

    They need to let it die. The first movie bombed and people are ticked off. He messed up too many important pieces of the story and I don't think it can be redeemed in the 2nd and 3rd books. They need to redo the 1st one properly and get M. Night off it.

    This was a bad movie, and I don't believe continuing the trilogy will fix it.


    A sequel could fix it by being a better made movie, but the first one already ruined the martial arts, the casting, and the storylines, so the other two books would have to be adapted to M. Night's new version of the story.


    It would be best to abandon the movie franchise for now until it can be rebooted or left alone.

    ANYTHING made by Bryke would be an improvement over the trash created by M. Night Shama-icantspellhislastname.
