    He's in the third Pirates movie? Really? How? Who will he play?

    Hmm for Yun-Fat to be Iroh? A possibility...

    That is if the movie consists of Zhao. We don't know what time period this is going to take place in. Heck we don't know why they decided to do a movie all of a sudden. I mean its like someone has been on this forum watching all of us discuss it. Any one of us could actually be M. Night right now taking notes. I am very serious about this.


    Holy crap, if Zhao isn't in this...that would just be wrong. It should take place before the series IMO. Maybe the first could be the initial attack and Sozin's comet coming 100 years ago and the next 5 years after it. The second could span the next 95 years until Aang returned. The third could have something to do with the series. Zhao would have to be in the last two, but Hugh Jackman would be a great Zhao IMO. This is very exciting news..I can't believe some people are actually down about this...


    YAY Pooldude!
    You are in support of the idea that we had weeks ago for the Avatar movie.?? You know the one that takes place before the series and does the whole story about Aang's up bringing.?? That would be so awesome!

    You know the only reason I even suggested Jackman is cuz both Zhao and Wolverine have crazy sideburns...

    ??Funny thing.?? I just realized that IF they do get Dakota Fanning to star as toph in the movie, she might end up stealing the show.

    If you've seen her movies, especially "I am Sam" and "Man on Fire", its rather plausible.

    If they use the storyline from the tv show, then Toph??might not??even be in the first movie. However, I just realized that Shyamalan could make this movie without any of the main characters we all know and love??from the show in it at all. It could be about how the war was started, or about the FIRST Avatar. And have all new characters. Then Shyamalan could cast anyone he sees fit??and have no fear of??angry??fangirls??rioting cuz the guy playing??Zuko isn't "hot" enough or whatever??
