Scratch

Just another cheesy Disney style, CGI extravaganza. But it was okay. Lucky for me, I never watched the show, so nothing was spoiled for me 

Did you hear about all those folks who got ultra ticked (I'm pretty sure it was the good ol' Rainbow coalition) and boycotted the movie because there weren't enough Japanese actors in it? I find that kind of.....dumb. In fact, it was a very multi racial film.

So you do care who comes first.

He doesn't care who, just if they do. But let's not turn this into a discussion of post counts.

Well in real life it's hard to get a kid that looks like a cartoon kid. They got it close enough: young, bald, childish. A couple of people they got completely wrong are Zuko and the fire lord. Zuko should have a ponytail and the firelord's hair should be long. Azula doesn't have that stern "I'm going to kill you if you step out of line" look. She's to childish. The ending sucked alot because Aang didn't drown any ships D:

Btw it actually makes sense that most of the actors are Indian, because the concept of the avatar is Indian, not Japanese as most would think from watching the cartoon.

I didn't actually watch the movie, so excuse me if any of my knowledge is incorrect. But I didn't see any Indian actors in the commercials.

for the bending, they use so much movement for lifting water or something... and every other word, aang flared his nostrils. and super bad acting. good thing i like avatar. or else i would have hated this movie so much.

but i like less movement like the series.

and here's what's not like the series:
no kyoshi warriors
no freedom fighters
no haru on the SHIP. the part in a cage was haru i think, but no ship.
no agni kai between zhao and zuko.
no rejecting katara from learning water.
not a lot of chinese or japanese people (not to be racist, but that's the whole point of the series: chinese martial arts with chinese people (also japanese stuff))
no good prononciation

Well actually the whole avatar concept isn't at all chinese or japanese. It's completely Indian. And I think the freedom fighters and kyoshi warriors are in book two. But the other things they left out that you mentioned I was very disappointed he left out 

No, freedom fighters in book 1 and 2, kyoshi warriors in book 1, 2 and 3.

And actually the words  (in the intro of the series in the squares of the map) are chinese/japanese, and all the people are too. (at least in the series)
@wickimen-yeah, sokka's not funny anymore.
