R.I.P The Last Airbender
Leviathan.Remoraforever said: Fenrir.Kiraa said: Avatar isn't anime. >.> Under-educated masses, Avatar: The Last Airbender was out way before Avatar (the shitty looking blue people) was even in production stages. This is a live Action movie of the Animated series on Nickolodean. Avaatar: the movie about blue people
is like watching pocahontas on the future and another planet. Phoenix.Darki said: Avaatar: the movie about blue people is like watching pocahontas on the future and another planet.

I guess it's just disappointing for so many of us that there was so much potential there and it just got squandered. Now, who wants to see how badly they *** up "Cowboy Bebop?" :D Edited to reply: Ramuh.Vinvv said: They adapted the film to be more entertaining via film I assume, usually when they do that they risk either a major hit or a flop. Most of the time they don't do movies that are related to Japanese animation(atleast in style) justice. Ex. would be dragon ball. I honestly wouldn't care about the "fanbase" of previous, but the new fanbase of people who don't know the series, or chose not to watch it like myself. It's all about the big $ making it completely a kids film like the anime would be probably wouldn't get the action buff sheeps dropping their 10-20 bucks on 3d movies. i really think it wouldn't sell as much if they went in with the same kind of idea that the series did, but then i haven't watched much into it so I'll find out eventually once I get a good rip of the movie. As for the series, yes, it was made for kids, but quite a few adults enjoy it as well, and the martial arts in the series are authentic. Several martial artists have commented that they look LESS authentic in the film. And if you want evidence of the film's failure to entice people to see it... well, you're planning to wait for a decent rip of it instead of going to the theater, and odds are you're not the only one. :) So that's a bit of a non-point in my case. but in their defense, they were just trying to make a buck off of the whole superhero type movie franchise just like dragon ball..that crowd never thinks things through really anyway. lol. they just want flashy graphics and big explosions, that's all they are looking for. example: the plot of the movie Avatar(not the air bender one) Ramuh.Vinvv said: ...I honestly wouldn't care about the "fanbase" of previous, but the new fanbase of people who don't know the series, or chose not to watch it like myself.

The show is anything but created for kids. It's stylized to be appealing to kids, but the majority of actual content is geared toward adults. I highly suggest anyone who hasn't watched A:TLA to go see it now. hey as long as the children enjoy these kind of movies who cares =p
it's nice to see children enjoy movies that come from their favorite cartoons, it makes things that are on their imagination more real, and that really hypes them up :) Quetzalcoatl.Kireime said: Ramuh.Vinvv said: ...I honestly wouldn't care about the "fanbase" of previous, but the new fanbase of people who don't know the series, or chose not to watch it like myself.

I like kids movies. They're fun.

Phoenix.Darki said: Fairy.Spence said: I like kids movies. They're fun. Sadly, I agree. Siren.Enternius said: You have a good point. Family Guy is also on Cartoon Network, clearly it was made for kids. Do they air it normally outside of adult swim? good job making a bad point.

That's like saying that MTV is completely a legitimate music channel when all they play is Reality shows. The M stands for music, and it was designed as a music channel.

That's like saying that MTV is completely a legitimate music channel when all they play is Reality shows. The M stands for music, and it was designed as a music channel. I'll elaborate on why once I get done fixing this 73 year old deaf guys internets. OOOOOkay. Let's break it down. Cartoon network has a block of time when children typically are asleep, they call it "Adult Swim" in that time they air adult oriented or otherwise humorous shows animated or otherwise. Within the same timeslot on Nick you have what? Reruns. and then it goes back to being kid programming. the difference is that CN has adult oriented programming while Nick never really wanted to go into that. The closest they got to that was with shows like "All that" and all. MTV and Nick are owned by the same company I do want to point out that though. All of this is a bit beside the point past my CN post. but it proves my point that Nick is inherently child oriented. I would have rather watched Jackie Chan adventures bro. but this is a futile argument either way... so I'd say I'm done with it if you are, if you continue with a point rather than us repeating the same ***back to each other I'm game. Lakshmi.Jaerik said: that was funny, never really watch comedy anymore. Leviathan.Remoraforever said: Seraph.Rafik said: It sucked so bad. I couldnt finish watching it. I was disappointed with the actors they chose for these roles. Maybe some actors who actually looked like the ones from the anime would have helped?

Maybe some actors who actually looked like the ones from the anime would have helped? to supplement your point. I think this thread has done almost as much for the series as the movie did. ; ;
