KnightWing Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Nice. The 3D thing is still bothering me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 The bottom of the poster says it's also available in 2-D. Since it became 3-D late in the production, I'll probably see it in 2-D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted May 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 M Night was basically told "we are going to make it 3D". I'm pretty sure he didn't have a say in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackFetch Posted June 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 The preview from the MTV Movie Awards: http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=66858 It's 99% stuff from the trailers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 I'd say more like 85%. There's a few really nice new shots there. Still, nothing to jump and scream about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 New pictures released on an iPhone app. Momo looks creepy. Also, BOOMERANG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted June 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 I want my own Appa. He's just so damn huggable. I bet I'd get all the ladies taking him to the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 I agree. This is the first time I've seen a good picture of Appa and I'll say, I am very much impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stavros Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Momo looks sweet too. However the most important thing about this movie to me is who plays Iroh, the shows best character by far. I really hope that Shaun Toub is up to the task, because for me Iroh is the driving force behind Zuko, the one who makes him more than a one-dimensional villain.

Agreed, Iroh is the backbone of the whole story. And for my money there is no better story told in the whole series than his. Remember the "Tales of Bah Sing Say" episode? His piece - dedicated to Mako - was the best thing ever done on a show that was already incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James D. Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 I said it on WFP and I'll say it here--I am terrified that they are going to leave out all of the wonderful humor that balances the darkness of a lot of the episodes. This looks like a movie that is going to be far too serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 I've seen some animated-style Sokka humor in the last few commercials. I'm not too worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Roger Ebert's half star review. Every time I try to not like him, he goes and writes something as good as that. Great review. Try reading that and say he doesn't know his shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted June 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 How can you add the 3d into the review when most people won't even see it in 3d? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 I don't see a problem with it as a warning against those who want to go and see it in 3D. It's an afterthought to the production and needed to be said. What would be wrong with mentioning the IMAX parts of The Dark Knight in a review? If it's how it is being presented AND marketed, there's not a problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try reading that and say he doesn't know his shit. I'm not saying he doesn't know his shit, I'm saying his opinion isn't mine. His casting criticisms might be valid, but I've no problem with Shamalamadingdong taking the concept somewhat seriously. He might well be right, but I'll see and decide for myself.

JackFetch Posted June 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 A review should be about the movie, not the marketing. I don't know if the movie sucks, but if the first thing the reviewer complains about is the 3d I don't care what else they have to say. That was how he saw the movie, not how everyone else will.

Venneh Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 There's a big IN 3D!!!! in the title of the movie itself. I'd say evaluating the 3D is pretty legitimate if it's right in the title. Dunno about the rest of it, but I'm interested that he picked up on the casting hijinx. I'll probably go to see it in 2D, anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Ebert hated the movie long before he ever saw it. He read a few blogs about the casting, decided that they were trustworthy, and has been basically campaigning nonstop about the "racism" in TLA. Personally, I think this is an example of reverse-racism (where the audience is mentally projecting race onto the characters where none really existed before). I'm about to see the movie at midnight tonight. I'll probably post my thoughts when I get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
