Title: The Last Airbender
Post by: New Era Outlaw on December 11, 2008, 05:05:00 PM
So, some of you may have already been aware that a live-action movie is in the works for the Avatar series.
A lot of people are excited about this, including me.
However, after looking at some of the cast pictures for the movie, I'm beginning to have my doubts.

Seriously. How in the blue FUGGERNUTS can you cast a blue-eyed, blonde Caucasian as Katara?
Most honky casting ever.


EPIC FAIL.

That's the thing.
While watching the show, you'd realise that each of the tribes in Avatar are based on a particular Asian race:

Fire Nation: Japanese
Earth Kingdom: Chinese
Water Tribe: Indian/Mongolian
Air Nomads: Tibetian

So, again. How can you cast a bunch of Caucasians in roles dominated by Asian demographics?

Well. I guess this is the part where Avatar's going to jump the shark. I know the live-action movie did the same for Ben 10.

LOL real men hailing me out all over the forum like I just thawed out of a block of ice after 100 years (trying to stay on topic) HEHE.

I'm back and I shall use the power of the 4 major caming platforms to unite the gaming world. LOL.

Let's hope the film has a better script than that.

It was a show on Nickelodeon after all, even if it was incredible. So we can't put that kinda thing past them. They probably had to please some sort of executive somewhere.
