'Cuz sharing is caring...
So, I watched The Last Airbender last night. And, I think from the title you have a general idea of my feelings towards the movie.
You must understand that I'm a fan of the Avatar series (to the point I wished they continued it). Since they didn't want to continue the series, the movie was the next best thing for me.
But M Night crapped on that dream.
I don't want to make an in-depth review because it would depress me.
Let's just say a part of my soul died and I've seen pornos with better character development.
The kicker was that he owned up to that "tapestry of feces" in the end credits by showing it was "Written, Directed and Produced by M Night"
I'm hoping the studio kicks M Night off the project and continues the trilogy. Because if he's still on the next project, I'm probably not watching the next movie.
HATE HIM ON FACEBOOK.

do go on. I really liked the movie. Wasn't what I expected (y'know what with the bad reviews and all).
It could have done so much better. He had so much material to work with (and to imagine he is a fan of the series)....
Plus like most reviews will say.. it was all "tell" no "show".. Which is a big no no especially in film..
And the way he did the "tell" made the story seem so shallow.. When the characters actually have so much more depth..
Plus the ending.. Oh my God... They ruined a part of the Avatar that gave so much power to the next two books...
Hence we should just stick to the cartoon series haha... i like the action though. The kids and actors weren't super awkward with the movements not like some other kiddie films.
Perhaps it was all in what we expected to see with the Airbender movie? I was thinking that the only thing with MNS was that he didn't bring anything new to the table, like some other director could've had a hand in it and it would still end up 'ok'. As per MNS style he usually had that snap in the end. This one was just... a kiddie movie.
Sidenote: Congrats on the book and the Book Launch! Sorry I wasn't able to go. Sign me up for a copy please (with signature, dedication and your most embarassing moment, fave movies and whatnot. kiddin!). Cheers! see u soon.
It's all good!
I will reserve a copy. I'll try to bring extras this week in training..
I expected terrible.. but I didn't expect that.. lol
This actually says a lot about what I think:
