Fuck you M. Night Shamwow, the Last Airbender totally sucked!

[BloodyMage]

I'd still rather watch The Last Airbender.

[Nique]

Ugh, gun to my head? I'm comfortable with Twilight being terrible so I could conceivably derive some enjoyment from it in an incredibly round about way. Airbender, not so much.

[Premmy]

I actually hear that the Movies are better than the books somehow.

Premonitions if you want to lecture everyone on the whole racisim thing I say go for it.

I'm just gonna talk about the original series, anbody else want to talk about that?

You know what? I'm glad it's so bad. I really am. This, hopefully, means that they won't do follow-up movies, which means we only have to "see" the show butchered once. (See is in quotes because I honestly don't think the movie is worth even stealing just so I can be a pretentious jackoff) Beyond that, think about if the movie had been vaguely decent on its own grounds, but still terrible compared to the show. People: "That Last Airbender movie was pretty good!" Avatar Fans: "It got so much stuff wrong and cut out so many awesome parts. It really sucked." People: "NERD!"

[Azisien]

I...

Okay, Avatar is a fantastic show.

You could cut stuff out and stunt it a bit in movie form but still make it great.

Or good.

Or decent.

Or passable.

Or bearable.

THIS?! ARRRGGHHH!!!!

[Premmy]

Differences betweeen the flick and the show

I'm hoping the hidden-text isn't directed at me and if it is I think we should have a PM chat so I can apologize for anything that might have come out that way. For the record: The issues around this movie + the last big discussion we had have given me a slightly better understanding of your perspective. Honestly I think any disagreement we would have at this point would be largely about semantics.

Damn, here I was trying to be all agreeable n' shit. Premonitions, I AM CONCERNED THAT I HAVE OFFENDED YOU PLEASE CONFIRM OR DENY SO I CAN STOP FREAKING OUT AND GET BACK TO HATING THIS MOVIE.

Also I'm watching my Daily Show recordings and am trying to figure out if your avatar (HA!) was in an episode I somehow missed or if someone on the internet is just having a laugh.

It still would have been a better movie I'm not seeing how that is the worse option. As it is they pandered to the lowest denominator, tricky to actually pull off becuase it's easy to tip the scale too far and wind up with... well, this movie. I mean, my 9 year old brother in law fell asleep and he's not that discerning. This film should have glued him to the seat. Instead he fell asleep on the floor and got glued there (cause it was a movie theater and there was gum on it).

Did I mention that 3D still pisses me off too?

It's more of a general thing, as I don't even remember the particulars of the last time we butted heads, but you probably contributed to my overall distaste for discussing this shit in a public forum so you can feel bad about that if you want

Avvy:
The Firelord robes look pretty obviously shopped, so I'm gonna say it's an internet thing

[Azisien]

Well this just adds a little more to the suck-pile. Apparently they don't even pronounce names right?

Did you not read my list? I mean, yeah it's 'Aaaaaaaang' and 'Soooooka' and dammit this is an English word 'Aaaavatar'. Top to bottom anything you could find wrong with a movie about Avatar, this movie does it.

I do! Even in disagreement on subjects like this (I guess anything controversial) I don't think someone should be shamed into just not talking about it anymore. Multiple perspectives are important. It's not always easy to remember to include an 'but I appreciate your perspective and it has enlightened me somewhat' in a debate, but a lot of discussions could probably use a lot more of that.
