Ompha???

It would be amazing if they actually picked that guy, lol!!!

I really can't think of anybody who could play a convincing Toph... *chews lip*....Hmmm.... Lol, what if they picked Kristen Stewart? She's been in practically every new movie I've seen since she played on Twilight. (No, I haven't really seen a lot of new movies lately. :( )

Oh, and Toph isn't really buff, but she's not slim either. I guess you could say she's stocky for a girl her age.

Kristen Stewart would ruin the movie. Toph is a little girl and she is an adult. If they turn Toph into a guy that would ruin it and she isn't stocky, stocky would be more fat than muscle and she definitely isn't fat.

Stocky can be muscle, and lol, I was being sarcastic about Kristen Stewart. (Not that I have anything against her.)

'Smatter of fact, I have a friend who is stocky. And believe me, it's all muscle. *rubs shoulder and grumbles*

I had the same thought when silvaarr posted the picture. xDD
(no insult intended)
That would be awfully funny. xD

You should try out, you look close enough to her! xD

So will this movie have anything to do with the show, or is it a spinoff? :?
(noob question :) )

By the way, I got the low-down on the whole silly Avatar/Last Airbender thang. James Cameron trademarked the name "avatar" 15 years ago when he had the whole idea of his, so it legally couldn't be used by the cartoon in theaters. (which came way later)
I think Last Airbender is cooler sounding anyway. xD

I think the movies are going to be pretty similar to the cartoons (I hope). They're making three movies, one for each "book" in the series. At least they will if the first movie does well.

@Kotaarr - lol xDD Yeah, the movie is supposed to follow the original plotline, but so far, I'm not sure how accurate it's going to be. They seem to have left out important stuff and/or added stuff that doesn't seem to be true :? (like they don't have a character for Jet, wth? and the trailer shows Fire Nation soldiers attacking an air temple, lolwhut?)

That makes much more sense lol :lol: I wouldn't want the movie to have the actual name Avatar anyway because it's so far from the show... I'm just being a picky overly-obsessed dork but I don't like the casting and stuff... Well, at least until I see the movie. Maybe it's really good, who knows. But nothing beats the original regardless :mrgreen:

@Gome: Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're going to make the second and third movies no matter what. As for how well the first one does, I'm not sure, really. There are plenty of Avatar fans, so... Idk. :D

I hope so but if a lot of people don't like the first movie, they might stop like they did with Eragon, but of course that movie was way messed up. Anyways, yeah, casting not too good. Or at least that's what I think.

@Toph casting: I don't think Toph's stocky, but just... small. And she's thin, too. I mean, you see plenty of girls out there who are small, but that doesn't mean they're fat or stocky/muscular. Just simply small, lol.

Yeah, they're going to cut out a lot. I can't even imagine how they'll fit it all into about 2 hours, because that's how long four episodes. And they have to cover 20 episodes! They'll probably take the major episodes or the major portions of episodes.

She is a small girl, but she is also young and she isn't a normal average girl. There are several examples of how she is much stronger and has more muscle than normal girls her age and in general.

Post Re: Avatar rocks
I think I heard somewhere that the benders were drawn to somehow resemble the movements and power of their elements. Zuko: tall, thin, fire bender, fire bending: fast, sort of erratic. Toph: short, stocky, earth bender, earth bending: deep movements, strength, deliberate. Aang: short, light, air bender, air bending: flows (not as smoothly as water), fast or slow, can use either quick or slow movements. Katara: medium height/weight, water bender, water bending: flows like air, but smoother, gentle or rough.

Am I making any sense?

Yes, but how they appear could be with how they were raised as well, Zukko in a tough environment always being pushed, Aang never did much manual labour, Katara was more of a motherly figure so she didn't do much hard labour, Toph was raised very sheltered but did all that other stuff.

are we really arguing about Toph's body's shape/size? lol.

I will have no part in that. lol

I think the casting is bad, but it is very possible to fit the movie into 2 hours, because a lot of the episodes didn't really advance the plot, so yeah... lol.

Lol, I guess we are. :lol:

Hmmm...But they'll still have to put parts of them in to make the movie not to dark.

If that were true, Zuko would have been the stocky one. It has something to do with the movements of their bending, it builds muscle differently and in different places. Watch the benders when they bend, they all move differently, unless they bend the same element. If you watch Aang, he does all of the movements, but his primary body shape is that of an air bender. Basically their body shapes sort of enbody the essence of their element.

No, because Toph describes that Earth benders have to be hard and solid, not necessarily in disposition, but either way Earth benders tend to be a lot more muscly than Fire benders.

Post Re: Avatar rocks
???Where have you been? That's what I'm saying. Their body types somewhat depict their element, because of the different movements they make in their bending. Which cause different muscles to build up, or the same muscles to build up in different ways and/or strengths. (Ex: Zuko's leg muscles: thin, lean; Toph's leg muscles: stout, hard) But that doesn't mean that he's weaker in his legs, his leg musles could be as strong as her's, but because they make different movements when they bend (Zuko kicks, Toph stomps) their muscles build up differently.

You said Zukko would be the stockier one. I said it would be Toph because Earth benders tend to have more muscle or at least that is what they show in the show.

You said that Zuko was raised in a tough environment, always being pushed. That's why I said that.

And didn't Toph run away?

I said that because Zuko was pushed more as a child than most fire benders, from what we can see, his sister doesn't have nearly as much muscle as Zuko.

Yes, Toph did run away but that doesn't have anything to do with how she grew up.

Toph also uses a different earth bending style than the others do, as she learned a style of bending that compliments her blindness, so she is actually built a bit differently than alot of the other earth benders

Actually, Zuko and Azula are pretty much even in the muscle department.

Lol, I'm not saying they NEED muscle, I was just trying to point out that the benders body shapes are built up differently depending on what element they bend because of the movements made when they are bending.

Lol, thank God. :lol:

It's supposed to come out July 2nd, but I have a bad feeling they're going to postpone it. The trailer was supposed to come out on Christmas, but instead it's coming out in February. :( All the filming is finished, though, so I'm not sure what's taking them so long to make a trailer.

Tell me about it! I wanna hear some voices already. We haven't heard how Noah Ringer or Nicola Peltz sound yet, but they should say at least something in the trailer. And we should get a good idea about how the special effects will look, as well as the martial arts and fighting scenes. I hope it doesn't look corny, because I feel they can easily mess it in real action.

yeah, they definitely need to have good effects for all the bending... but apparently Shymalan is big on the effects and stuff, right?

yeah, hearing some voices would be nice, lol.

It did give us an idea of what the mood will be like, which is apparently the more serious side of Avatar. I doubt they'll have any comedy anywhere in the movie, because Shyamalan said so himself in an interview that he's really accustomed to making horror films. It also showed us that Noah Ringer has very nice skills with a staff (dude, I have to learn those moves myself! :mrgreen: )! I think they'll focus mainly on the show's overall plot, the special effects, and martial arts. No comedic relief, not much romance, and no carefree and fun filler episodes, all of which the show contains.

But there were a lot of them, so it would be difficult to put them in. And if they did, they would have people saying, why didn't they put this or that episode in, it was funnier/more romantic. You also have to admit, if they focus mainly on the serious stuff, this is going to be one ba movie.

Yeah, I see what you mean. I just really liked the show, which was a complete mix of everything needed in a great T.V. show, like comedy, romance, and action. But Avatar has too many episodes to have all of those put into a movie. I guess the movie doesn't have to be like the show then. It's just impossible, right?

I HAVE NEW FOR YOU GUYS! Paramount Pictures, the company that's supporting The Last Airbender, bought 35 seconds to air a commercial for the movie during the Super Bowl!!! I can't believe it! It's airing on February 7th, which means the trailer should come out before then! I'm going to watch the Super Bowl for the first time in my life just to see the commercial! :mrgreen:

Basically all we have to look forward to that's close is the trailer and maybe news related to the movie... so what should we talk about? 8-[

@Red: You did? Seriously? That's amazing, thanks a lot for the pic then! You're really talented dude, nice drawing!

Shyamalan is directing it because his family used to watch it together since his kids were obsessed with it and made him watch it also. He found the whole show amazing with its unique cultures and incredible fight scenes, so he thought it would make a great live-action movie. Thus, we now have him as our director, and we also see his name in huge letters wherever we see the movie's title.


:lol:

Isn't the whole reason that Avatar the Last Airbender had name problems because of the Avatar movie?

I may be wrong, but I thought the Avatar that caused legal issues was an older movie (way older) infact I most likely am XD >.> but either way Avatar The Last Airbender was the original Avatar and should have had dibs on the name.

Unfortunately dibs doesn't work when your going against James Cameron and his latest 300 million dollar movie...

PS. James' Avatar is OLD, it was written in something like 1994 but he put it off because he didn't think he could create a world that would match his "vision"

OH EM GEE I've missed this topic!!1!

:ahem: Excuse my sudden outburst, but I've indeed missed this thread :)

As to what we're talking about... I did hear that James Cameron had legal rights to the name for many years, and I think it's fair that he had the right to reserve it for his movie. I mean, The Last Airbender isn't going to be 100% the original show anyway, so it's not truly and completely Avatar: the Last Airbender.

Did you guys see this picture of Noah Ringer aka Aang? The outfit looks pretty good... Though it bugs me that we haven't been able to hear his voice yet... I guess the trailer will have some of him talking.

Lol, it does sound more... serious? epic? I don't know. But it is more specific to the show. The word "avatar" can apply to more than one thing, but there's nothing else out there that has to do with airbenders, lol.

So when's the Super Bowl again? Feb. 7th, right? That isn't too far away. I'm excited to see some of the effects they've been working on. If there's one thing Shyamalan can do right, it's effects, lol.

Lol, yeah, I think so... come to America then! Lul.

Not yet, she's not going to be in this movie anyway, because she was introduced in season 2 and this movie only covers season 1.

One weird thing about this is that the producer said that if the movies were successful, they'd be making more than 3. That doesn't really make sense to me, since each movie goes with one season, and there are only 3 seasons. Unless they assigned only half a season to a movie, I guess that could work.... Thoughts?

Thoughts here are they'll add more things inbetween, but they'd decide that while making the second movie-third movie is being written at least.

Too much will overdo it though.

Yes, that's what I thought. The original series was written to fit 3 series exactly and if they go about changing that, it may not be as good. Though the movies will probably get rid of "filler" episodes, like the King of Omashu or something and they'll only keep the important, action-y eps. So it could kind of cancel out, in a way, if they add more....

Also, I'm pretty sure no one really cares, but I think there's going to be Kataang in the movie! I saw a screenshot of Aang and Katara hugging in a CGI reel of the movie :)

They might not even stay true to those episodes. Doesn't seem likely everything in the movie was an episode.
Still sucks Toph isn't there. I love Toph.

What's that bison things name again? Is it Yuppa? Is he in the movie?

I don't get what they mean by more than 3 movies. That's impossible! Maybe the guy just didn't know anything about the series. :lol: The only reason I can think for as to why he said that is because they might be dividing season 3 in half, and they would only do that for the third season because it contains the whole plot resolution and the most action. I don't think they should go anywhere over 3 movies though, because then it would just be annoying and unnecessarily untrue to the show. Movie series aren't that common either, and the actors have to be the same, so how on earth would that work out?!

Lol, of all people, how is Katara scary? Wouldn't Toph be more scary than her?
:lol:

So you suddenly think I'm scary? I'm just about the dorkiest person ever and not scary at all. Besides, how is Katara scary? I bet there are dozens of BA anime girls you know who are far scarier than her xD

I'd rather fight Katara, just so I could get close to her... :wink:

Nida is pretty scary actually. One morning, I came downstairs to have breakfast, and I learned that Nida hadn't made my toast for me! I thought I was living a nightmare or something! No doubt, it was one of the scariest things that have ever happened to me. Nida's one scary girl. Watch out.

I'd rather fight... neither of them! Lol where'd the fighting thing come from anyway?

Oh schapz. I totally forgot that horrible incident. I am totally frightening after all.

: points accusingly at arya_rox: It was she who done it. And why don't you want to fight them, Aang? They're girls, after all. Don't you think you could take them?

Is anyone else as disappointed with the Iroh actor as I am?

Comparison:

The actor kind of looks like a character from Pirates of the Caribbean or something. :/

@Arya: Lol, I don't know if I could take them, but I don't want to fight them! I mean, what did they do to me?

Yeah, Iroh's actor is the one I'm mostly disappointed with so far. He doesn't have to obese or anything, but a more chubbier guy wouldn't be too hard to find! And come on, dreadlocks? That's just ugly. All he needs is a gray beard of some sort, something like what Dumbledore has. It doesn't even have to be real! And the outfit has nothing to do with... anything! How is that a Fire Nation suit? Come on, how hard is it to make it red?? They're part of the Fire Nation! #-o

@Red: Oh, I never believed you, I was just going along with the joke. :lol: The person who made it was someone on Deviantart called Twixbar, who I doubted was you. :)

@The latest update: Dude, that video updated my To-Do List: 1) buy both of those hot posters and 2) watch the Super Bowl! I love Avatar stuff! :D

By the way, since we were talking about Iroh's actor, I found this fanart that was in my Favorites on DeviantArt. Check this out. You can compare their outfits, height, facial hair, and have a good laugh at the joke!

Yeah, my sentiments exactly. I hope the actor at least portrays Iroh's character well. He needs to display the wisdom that comes with age, as well as the comedic side of Iroh. If they retained that side of Iroh in the script, that is. They could have grinded him down, like they did with Sokka.

The posters are pretty cool, I have to admit.

Lol! Nice find, that's great xP

Super Bowl in one week, on next... Sunday. They're only showing a part of the trailer during it, right after the National Anthem, so that's when y'all need to watch particularly. The whole trailer is going to be released with the Percy Jackson and The Olympians movie.

Yes, we must watch the beginning of the Super Bowl! I can't wait to see something new with Avatar. All we've been getting lately are a bunch of pictures, but some actual footage would be great.

I hope the trailer gets online shortly after the commercial. Maybe someone will record it at the Percy Jackson and the Olympians movie and put it on Youtube or something.

Yup. We'll see all the main characters and all 4 types of bending in the trailer. They confirmed that.

Hopefully. Yeah.

EDIT: THE NEW TRAILER LEAKED! (the SuperBowl one, so it's not the whole thing)

hey, the effects don't look half bad...

yeah, it's pretty easy to tell from this that he's going for the whole 'serious side' of Avatar in the movie...

lol, for a moment I thought the dude talking was the same one that talked in the show at the beginning when they said, "Previously, on Avatar..." :lol:

Yup, the bending looks pretty cool/realistic. Except it seemed kind of... slow to me. Did it look slow to you? Maybe they just put it in slow-mo for coolness or something... lol.

Yeah, that's true. Very non-funny, lol.

You mean Roku? Lol, that'd be funny if it was him xD

Keep in mind, this is only a part of the trailer. We'll see the whole thing shortly. Actually, if you're going to see the Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief movie, they're releasing the trailer with that.

LOL you can't tell if he's going for a whole serious side just with that! It's a kid's movie, there'll be comic relief.

I watched and liked n_n

I was actually on AvatarSpirit last night lol. Reading stuff.

Oh yeah, we know he's going for the serious side. So far with everything we've seen, trailers and pictures alike, there hasn't been a single smile from any of the characters or any humor whatsoever. And Shyamalan said so himself in an interview how he "grounded" the show, especially Sokka, meaning he made everything serious. So there may be a few scenes in the movie with comic relief, like any other movie nowadays, but nothing like the original show.

I thought the trailer was pretty cool. I mean, the bending looks nice and the characters aren't as bad as I thought. Just everything is so dark, which I didn't expect.

@Silver: Lol, what were you reading about on Avatarspirit? They don't even update anymore!

There is one thing about the movie that I learned of recently that really ticked me off. Shyamalan made it so that all Firebenders in the movie can't create their own fire- they have to obtain it from another source, like Waterbenders. You can see for yourself by watching the trailer at around the first 13 or 14 seconds, how that Firebender is bending the fire from the nearby pot thing. For some reason, that concept really annoyed me. Firebending, they say in the show, comes from the breath, and Firebenders have the special ability to make their own by mastering breathing and control. It seems like Shyamalan wants to throw away all the simple details of the show for really no purpose at all.

Yeah, seems pretty serious so far. Might be some comedic moments, though. And I'm not exactly sure whether it's a kid's movie or not. The rating hasn't been released yet. Do you guys think it will be PG or PG-13?

@Silv: Yeah, why were you on Avatar Spirit? :lol:

@Firebending: It makes no sense to me either. How else could the Fire Nation have been an effective antagonist group? Do you expect them to carry out torches or pots of fire every time they attack someone? :?

Yeah, it made them unique. But seriously, every time they firebend, they have to have big things of fire with them. That makes no sense :/

Watching for the trailer right now.... I hope I didn't miss it.

My mom hates football, but I convinced her to DVR the game so we could fastforward through it and I could see the trailer. 8)

Just one question.... who is Marcel? Isn't that the name of the pink cat clock on your desktop? 0_o

So what'd you think of it? I thought it was cool and all. I wonder when the whole trailer will be released online....

Nice, I'll wait until later though. School comps aren't friendly towards youtube.

yeah, it looks all right. I was kinda disappointed with the way Aang was fighting, though... :-|

the fire, earth, and waterbending all looked cool. but from what I saw of air bending, I haven't liked it too much... but maybe it's better than it looks.

I didn't really either. The part where he pushes that soldier back didn't look good and when he slid under that staff or spear or whatever was kinda lame. I didn't like the fire that came out of the pot but I liked the water bending.

Yeah, it was okay, not that great, but could be worse.

Is anyone else worried why we haven't heard Aang talk yet? Is the kid mute or something? Katara seems alright. She could be worse. I just hope she can actually fight and doesn't act like a weak little girl, because Katara isn't like that at all. Also, Dev Patel looks like he's going to be a bad Zuko. I don't know, when I saw him, I couldn't at all see him as being Zuko :/

Actually we saw Iroh in the trailer firebending from his hands, (which was probably in the Spirit Oasis in the Siege of the North, Part 2), which proves that firebenders don't need a source. My theory to that is that only stronger firebenders can bend without a source. Still, it's a pretty stupid concept, lol. :lol:

I know! lol I hope they didn't completely change Aang like they did with Sokka. He's supposed to be funny and goofy from the time he got out of the iceberg! I didn't see him smile once in the movie yet! Katara is definitely going to be too weak and helpless in the movie. And Zuko...I think it's best I don't talk too much about him here. :lol: :lol:
