It would be blasphemous if I made the decision to name this post after a Disney movie. Everyone knows about the extensive years of gang feuding between the Nickers, (aka Nickelodeon), and the Mouse Crew, (aka Disney Company). Blood and lives have been spent because of the constant contempt between the feuding groups… but I digress. After waiting almost a year and a half in anticipation, I was able to finally see the film “The Last Airbender,” a film based off of the Nickelodeon animation. To my dismay, my experience could not have been more horrible. The movie ended up being somewhat unsatisfactory for my heavy standards. That of course might be the problem, but nonetheless I found myself uninterested in some of the actors’ portrayals and the overall direction of the film. I’d recommend seeing it still, so that others could make their own decisions, but maybe not in 3-D.

Airbender? More Like Airhead

I've heard a lot of people have the same reaction! I am too old to have watched the original, and I am not really into Japanese-style cartoons/animation (although was the show Korean? See I dont' know much about it obviously...). I did want to see the movie thought, but I have been turned off enough by bad reviews from people. Do you think it would be better for people like me who never saw the original series?
