    Here is a good list for a cast:

    Zuko: Played by the kid that actually does his voice. (For authenticity reasons.)
    Aang: Same as the voice actor (For authenticity reasons)
    Katara: Same as the voice actor (For authenticity reasons)
    Sokka: Same as the voice actor (For authenticity reasons)
    Iroh: David Carradine [Kung Fu The Legend Continues, Kill Bill] (Since Mako is not around anymore. Now that I think of it, he would actually be the perfect new voice for the existing Iroh!)
    Toph: Same as the voice actress (For authenticity reasons)
    Azula: Same as the voice actress (For authenticity reasons)
    Mai and Ty Lee: You get the point!

    The reason why I would keep everyone the same is because why waste good talent that makes the show so great in the first place. Think about it. Aren't you are weary now about the new voice for Iroh? I am because I will miss Mako. However if they put in David Carradine as the new voice then it would not be so bad.

    I just reviewed all of the voice actors for the show with pictures from IMDB.?? There are some without pictures like Aang but for the most part all of the ones I did see bear a great resemblence to their characters in the show.?? So I really think they would all do a great job for a live action movie.

    I don't know what people have against Iroh's new voice actor, I honestly cannot hear any difference what-so-ever.

    As far as I know the new actor has not started yet.?? Mako was able to finish the 2nd season.?? What voice have you heard?

    Well if the new voice actor hasn't made an episode yet, why the heck are people complaining about it then?

    Okay, I could have gotten MY complain out a little better. Never mind, I only back off when I know I'm wrong.

    If you were referring to my mentioning of it above I was just saying how weary we are of who it going to play it.?? We are hoping that they find someone who does a great job like Mako did. We still don't know?? who the actor is and that concerns me.?? I am more than willing to give the person a chance.?? My thought was that it would be cool to see David Carradine do the part because we have already seen him play a wise master of Shaolin Kung Fu from the show.

    No biggie.?? Just don't want you thinking that people are complaining just yet.?? Hopefully the person would fit the role.?? I am hoping for someone to fill these qualifications:
    Asian sounding
    Wise sounding
    Older sounding

    If he sounds just like that then I will be satisfied.

    I think almost everyone agrees on Dakota Fanning as Toph. Also I just came back from watching War of the Worlds.

    Kelly seems to be another good choice as Azula.

    I say those two are definite. That just leaves everyone else. (The spoon kid from the Matrix sounded kinda good)

    I think Sokka should be Jack De Sena because no one else has a voice like him, plus he's funny.

    I'm getting an idea. (It's incredibly stupid though) but once we're done, ahem, casting the stars, I think we should all come up with a movie scrip... ya know, for fun and all so we can feel like producers and stuff. (I know, i know, sounds dumb)

    It's nmot a bad idea.?? The problem is that there are so many people on this forum that we may not agree on one thing.?? It would be nice to create a whole thing and send it to Nick to see if they would take it and run with it.

    Well we could start a thread with the people who want, let each one post their ideas, then if it works out, put it together
