xD definitely same here.

even if it's bad, i'll probably love it. xD i just hope they have at least decent special effects. i definitely loved the cartoon a lot.

to me, avatar is a mix between normal cartoon and anime. if you know what i mean...?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #51 on:** January 04, 2009, 11:31:58 am »

As I've said before I also like hearing other people interpretation of things, but it seems like most people want the movie to follow the cartoon. I wouldn't mind if the movie deviated a little from the cartoon just to get back to the same resolution

Yeah I guess it is a little bit of a mix

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #52 on:** January 04, 2009, 11:33:09 am »

yeah. the cartoon had pretty much a solid ending. so i think as long and the movie doesn't like. completely change what happens and still allows for cartoon canon to make sense, i'll be comepletely fine with it.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #53 on:** January 09, 2009, 08:47:08 pm »

I really enjoyed the ending of Avatar. And a few of my friends agree with the fact that as long as the ending is the same or similar it doesn't matter how it gets there....as long as it's not TOO far off XD

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #54 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:24:51 am »

oh, i loved the ending. i recorded it on tv and watch it every once in while.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #55 on:** January 10, 2009, 05:18:26 pm »

I would love to buy the complete series. I'm sure they will come out with some sort of box set

oslapedo · « **Reply #56 on:** January 10, 2009, 05:23:26 pm »

OMG I've been waiting and hoping for a complete series box set with extras and whatnot forever now

nikkiolie · « **Reply #57 on:** January 10, 2009, 05:24:36 pm »

Yeah I am sure they will come out with one.

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #58 on:** January 10, 2009, 06:48:50 pm »

xD i would definitely buy it. and yeah. they should make one. it's popular enough that like. everyone ever in the history of the world would get it.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #59 on:** January 10, 2009, 06:51:32 pm »

I think a lot of people would buy it too. Maybe it will be out in time for Christmas

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #60 on:** January 10, 2009, 06:53:38 pm »

that would be like the coolest thing ever. xD would love to get avatar for christmas, ad i would probably buy it for a couple friends, too.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #61 on:** January 10, 2009, 06:54:43 pm »

I'm sure it would be kinda expensive though. I think it would be the only thing I would get (if it was $100)

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #62 on:** January 10, 2009, 06:55:59 pm »

oh, yeah, that's true. it would be a huge box set, wouldnt it. like four seasons and the finale.

oslapedo · « **Reply #63 on:** January 10, 2009, 06:56:56 pm »

Avatar's only 3 seasons, and the finale is part of the third.

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #64 on:** January 10, 2009, 06:57:41 pm »

ah, yes. i havent watched the actual series in awhile. i've just been rewatching the finale. xD

nikkiolie · « **Reply #65 on:** January 10, 2009, 06:57:53 pm »

I really hope they come out with it. It can have a preview for the movie too

And what a great finale it is

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #67 on:** January 10, 2009, 07:16:36 pm »

most definitely

nikkiolie · « **Reply #68 on:** January 10, 2009, 07:28:13 pm »

It was a great finale I enjoyed it a lot.

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #69 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:05:34 pm »

very much agreed.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #70 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:06:53 pm »

I wonder when this movie is going to be released. Or even when a preview will come out.

oslapedo · « **Reply #71 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:10:52 pm »

I'm pretty sure it's coming out the summer of 2011, I remember because I was pumped up that it'd be coming out around the time of my HS graduation

nikkiolie · « **Reply #72 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:13:02 pm »

Wow that is very very far away. I wonder if there is any information on IMDB >_>

itachi689 · « **Reply #73 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:14:31 pm »

hey theres going to be a avatar live action movie

oslapedo · « **Reply #74 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:16:00 pm »

Actually... maybe I was getting excited over the HP finale being near my graduation.

Avatar live action might be summer of 2010 xD

nikkiolie · « **Reply #75 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:17:10 pm »

yeah it is 2010 and some good news for some of you. It is only rumored about the actors playing Zuko and Katara based on IMDB http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0938283/

oslapedo · « **Reply #76 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:26:27 pm »

I already knew that, and it makes my fangirl heart very happy. The waterbenders should be tan at the very least

.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #77 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:31:48 pm »

I don't think it was posted anywhere on this topic. Or at least I haven't seen it. And I have been too lazy to look up anything about it XD

oslapedo · « **Reply #78 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:35:37 pm »

Lawl it's okay, I read it on an Avatar forum awhile go.

*prays for new and ethnic actors*

nikkiolie · « **Reply #79 on:** January 10, 2009, 11:36:45 pm »

I didn't know there was a forum.....not too surprised though. It would be much better if they were the proper ethnicity.

I realized something the other day, why are people complaining about ethnicity when Avatar doesn't take place on Earth? the only elasticities are the very slight deviations in skin color because NONE of the cultures actually match up to Earth. you can make all sorts of comparisons but they don't matter because it's purely fiction. all they have to do is make this guy pale and that guy tan.

xkuroxhanax · « **Reply #81 on:** January 11, 2009, 09:39:24 am »

I think it's a 2010 release, and I think there's an IMBD page for it already.

I guess that makes sense, I guess there really is no real comparison, I can see where people would make one though.

Message from Paramount to Avatar fans: STFU
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/AngryZenMaster/~3/icflL2LziiM/

The producers of the live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender movie adaptation have heard your concerns about the casting of the film and don’t care. Fans responded angrily when it was announced that the lead characters would be portrayed by Caucasian actors. They set up websites, posted on blogs, and even sent letters to the producers of the film. And they don’t care. After a series of angry twitters between himself and fans, producer Frank Marshall gave his final comment:

-----"The casting is complete and we did not discriminate against anyone. I am done talking about it."

At this point, it is clear that Frank Marshall and co. do not care what fans of the show think. Filming has already begun with no casting changes. Round one goes to the producers. Round two? Well, that’s up to us.

There's more at the link.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #84 on:** May 10, 2009, 08:41:56 pm »

I don't care about the actors yet. I will SEE the movie before I make my judgment. I think anyone who judges a movie before they see it is was too judgmental.

They don't care because either way the film will be profitable. They will collect royalties every year through cable, foreign distribution, home video, DVD and Blu-ray sales.

Why make something GREAT when GOOD sells.

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #86 on:** May 22, 2009, 10:48:23 am »

Oh wow, so there's going to be a LOT of design changes. Good to know.

Pics originally came from USA Today.
http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2009-05-21-airbender-first-look_N.htm

Apparently the actor who plays Aang could actually take Zuko's actor in a fight. Well that's nice to know.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #87 on:** May 22, 2009, 10:55:25 am »

It doesn't look to bad to me. I am still going to hold out hope. On the plus side that isn't Jesse McCartney and if it is then it doesn't look like him and I stand by my original thought that they can make people look like whatever they want them to look like.

HEY it's the guy from Slumdog Millionaire! I liked that movie a lot :3

The_Geek · « **Reply #88 on:** May 27, 2009, 08:13:20 pm »

Has pinprick of hope for this movie...

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #89 on:** May 29, 2009, 05:37:10 pm »

So, I found another pick but lost the url, it shows a bit of Zuko's scarface.

(pic will go here when I find it)

Fire nation soldiers in BLACK and gold.
Not as big a deal as the main characters but why?
Was costume RED armor too expensive?

nikkiolie · « **Reply #90 on:** May 29, 2009, 09:31:59 pm »

Sad, I want to see the picture.

yeah the color of the armor does seem a little fishy.

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #91 on:** May 29, 2009, 11:45:56 pm »

Found it!

Higuma · « **Reply #92 on:** May 30, 2009, 07:32:01 am »

I will with hold judgement on the casting untill I have seen the movie. As long as the acting and story are good then thats fine with me.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #93 on:** May 30, 2009, 08:31:57 am »

That picture doesn't look too bad. And good for you Higuma ^_^

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #94 on:** May 30, 2009, 12:12:24 pm »

I just now realized that the blurry people in the background of that picture are supposed to be from a water tribe.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #95 on:** May 30, 2009, 04:32:25 pm »

well they have the right jackets, they look like Eskimos.

Sakis01 · « **Reply #96 on:** June 04, 2009, 10:37:51 am »

I think the movie is going to be fun with or without Jesse McCartney.
The Last Airbender is going to be awesome looking at it as a live action movie.

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #97 on:** June 23, 2009, 08:19:30 am »

Well at least I get to be up to date on something....

Actual teaser trailer for the movie. I am no longer worried AT ALL.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #98 on:** June 23, 2009, 08:46:53 am »

I can't tell if that was sarcasm or not....but I thought the trailer looked pretty good.

tofutakeout · « **Reply #99 on:** June 23, 2009, 09:31:04 am »

It did look good. watched it yesterday from someone on DA. I was like "okay I have to see it now." lol
