The Last Airbender Movie

I saw Eclipse with my fiance, it wasn't 1/2 bad compared to that peice of crap.

all these bad reviews makes me wanna go see just how bad it was lol

I guess this is one to put in the Netflix que :tears:. Screw spending $13 to see it in 3D plus the snackies and tasty beverage.

Hope Harry Potter makes up for this!

I think the general consensus is that people who follow the series/books/whatever else; did not like the movie, I on the other hand never really heard of it and saw the previews of it and was not interested at all...but I was dragged down to watch it by a couple friends (who offered to pay for me) and I thought it was really good, special effects and all (i did watch it in 3D though) but I could see how you can follow a series and expect the real movie to be awsome and then just be disappointed with everything (there was a lot of booing in the theatre,lol).

lol maybe i'm the only one, hahahaha

OK, so after half a day to sit on it. Here are my full thoughts.

First a foremost, the changling of the story, especially the ending was by far the worse aspect for me. In the cartoon, Aang and the Ocean spirit merge and become a giant monster thing. Hard to describe. Anyways, Aang single handedly destroys most of the fleet and sends the rest packing. Instead I got to see the passive tidal wave.

If they had done that right, I could have gotten over to bad acting and the bad editing, especially towards the beginning.

The joke that my friends made was that MKS actually made the movie based on the Opera House version from one of the last episodes of the show.

And I couldn't stand the mispronunciation of almost all the names.

For a fan of the show, it's a complete disaster.

For someone that knows nothing about it, it is just a bad movie.

I was entertained by it... For maybe a total of 30 mins. It was way too long, the acting was terrible, the camera angles were terrible, etc... That girl Kitara always pointed out the most obvious stuff, and that was really annoying. At the end-ish where she walks up to Aang, I turned to my BF and said (acting like her) "So, you really are the Avatar then?" The exiled prince was annoying.

We paid a total of $19 to go see it... I wish we would have spent that on food at a restaurant instead of this movie.

I was disapointed too. The actors were awful.
