Shamalalalalalala's "The Last Airbender", I thought I would give it a go. Fuck. What a mistake. I made it only until Zuko was shown for the first time, but boy was I disappointed. In those few minutes I had a myriad of problems, that fucked up the experience for me.
a) Katara and Sokka. They are supposed to have quite dark skin. And those fuckers were whiter than I am.
b) A hilarious goofball like Sokka, supposed to be portrayed by the static (albeit handsome) Jackson "I always look a bit constipated" Rathbone? No thank you.
c) Special effect don't matter if the storytelling is alright, but the bending.. Whoo boy, that just looked downright nasty.
d) Zuko is supposed to look Chinese and is a boy about 15-16 years of age. Not an Indian man that looks about 30.
Yeah, I'm gonna skip this one and wait until "Avatar: Legend of Korra" comes out on Netflix.
HEHE... not being spoiled by previous information about what the characters are supposed to be, I found that movie quite enjoyable... but... it begs for a sequel... where is it?
