I think it looks great for what they've got to work with. Better than most adaptations that have come out.


I belive you will be right,

tho after such movies as speed racer, live action DB movie, the chun li movie.....

to be better.... loooooowww bar very low bar....
it is resting on the ground really

and its not a bar so much as a chop stick

infact the chop stick is in a ditch so you dont even have to jump just walk over it....

xD Well put. The bar is set pretty low, and the effects and music look amazing. ....Excluding the music which does, in fact, sound amazing.

I snorted in amusement when I read it.. which then lead to a few comments from my co-workers.  Thanks a lot. XD

haha, I do like the way you put that Jaz. The bar has been essentially buried by the recent video game movies. Can't help that, but hopefully Avatar will rise above it, and not add to the list of terrible adaptations, heh

Hey, don't lump Speed Racer into that!
If you compare the two the movie was EXTREMELY faithful to the original cartoon.

The colors and the crazy driving were all exactly what they needed to make Speed Racer come to life.

Im going to wait and see more footage before I get a better view of how the movie's going to be. The trailer looked pretty amazing for what was added in there, and the picture's look really good from what I've seen, but in the end, it come's down to how well they act and how Night does the story which will finally determine how the movie is going to be.

I think it has a chance of being an entertaining movie at the very least...I love movies ao I will probably enjoy it. Now as far as how they did to mirror the show, its very seldom that movies pull that off very well, whether its video game, book, or tv series, there are always going to be differences that fans of the original will hate. Lucky for me, this is a series that I have only seen a couple partial episodes of, so I will enjoy the movie more than others...unless they make is terrible like that chun-li movie, because then there is no hope.

Night's other movies...more or less...& am interested to see it. I thought it matched the topic fairly well.

I hope it's not like the Chun-Li movie... It does have a few few good actors, so it's got that going for it... But in the end, it all comes down to how it's written, how it look's, and how they get the characters to act. If they don't have these 3 concepts done well, then the movie wont be that good, but I do hope it is done well.

Ya, I will be watching it when it goes to video only though...so I'm sure everyone will have some input here before I see it. Doubt I will go to the theater for it.

I'll be going to theaters for it, because I'm a fan of the series... But I'm going to keep in mind that there will be some changes, and I don't mind, as long as those changes make sense (unlike the Harry Potter movies where the stuff they changed made no sense to me)

A lot of things are getting new movies these days.

The Last Airbender, Alice in Wonderland, Toy Story 3...

Toy Story 3's different- yeah it's a new movie, but it's not a crazy adaption from source material, it's a another sequal to a movie. Cartoon to movie is way wilder. I'm pretty pumped for TS3 actually~<3

Ahhh... I wonder what they're gonna sound like when they talk...

I'm really excited to see this movie. I'm hopeful that the actors they chose for the parts will be good fits. I know a lot of people have been saying that they don't think Jackson Rathbone or Jesse McCartney are like the characters or whatever. They're actors. It's their job to take on a role and become a different person. I think the girl they chose for Katara is lovely. What sold me on the actor playing Aang was when I saw a preview and it like, blew my mind and that was when I really got excited for the movie.
