THE LAST AIRBENDER Movie Trailer

Check out the full trailer for M. Night Shyamalan's THE LAST AIRBENDER, which stars Noah Ringer, Nicola Peltz, Jackson Rathbone, and Dev Patel.
I think we have established that this movie looks pretty damn good, I mean did you see those fight scenes?! But I think that now the success of the film will depend on how good the story is and how the actors do. We unfortunately don't see much of the acting in the trailer, but I have a feeling we'll get to see more of that soon, so fingers crossed it doesn't disappoint.
The Last Airbender Synopsis: The story follows the adventures of Aang, a young successor to a long line of Avatars, who must put his childhood ways aside and stop the Fire Nation from enslaving the Water, Earth and Air nations.
The Last Airbender will be released to theaters on July 2, 2010. Watch the trailer below.

THE LAST AIRBENDER Super Bowl TV Spot

Check out the Super Bowl TV Spot for M. Night Shyamalan's THE LAST AIRBENDER in advance, thanks to UGO.
Wow, I mean wow. The TV spot looks even better than the teaser trailer released earlier. If I was excited to see this before, now I am super excited. I wish it was July already.
For fans of the show, you'll notice in the TV spot we get our first look at the Airbending, Firebending, Waterbending, and Earthbending, which all look really impressive. We also get our first peek at Aang in his avatar state, which I think they captured really perfectly.
The only thing that I wonder is whether they are going to keep the humor of the show, which is what made it so good. If they are able to keep the tone of the show, in addition to these amazing looking fight scenes, M. Night Shyamalan could have another winner in [...]

Check out two new character posters for M. Night Shyamalan's THE LAST AIRBENDER of Aang (Noah Ringer) and Zuko (Dev Patel) that Yahoo! Movies just premiered.
This is a movie I am really looking forward to, especially since I am a fan of the show it was based on (which I urge you to check out). I really hope M. Night Shyamalan does a good job with it.

M. Night Shyamalan's THE LAST AIRBENDER Teaser Movie Trailer

Check out the trailer for THE LAST AIRBENDER starring Noah Ringer, Nicola Peltz, Jackson Rathbone, Dev Patel and directed by M. Night Shyamalan.
As a huge fan of the original animated show, I'm not as excited as I thought I would be, which is weird because I usually love M. Night Shyamalan's movies.
I guess my problem with the teaser is that, while the opening sequence is pretty cool, I'm not sure they have captured the essence of Aang. In the teaser he seems very self-confident and really powerful, whereas in the show he has to build up to it. Although he is powerful at air bending, even that is still a work in process as we get through the seasons.
That said, I am kind of excited to see a longer trailer, because let's face it, a teaser is supposed to tease you and doesn't really show much.
The Last Airbender will be [...]

After a first look at Dev Patel as Zuko in M. Night Shyamalan's THE LAST AIRBENDER, how about a first look at Noah Ringer who plays the title character, Ang, the new avatar.

Dev Patel Cast as Zuko in THE LAST AIRBENDER

Dev Patel's success is just getting started. After Slumdog Millionaire, he has now been cast in M. Night Shyamalan's THE LAST AIRBENDER, as Prince Zuko, Aang's nemesis.
I was writing up the news about the rest of the cast for The Last Airbender, and came upon this news, which apparently is all over the fansites.
Originally Jesse McCartney was in negotiations to play Zuko. But turns out the part eventually went to Dev Patel. Well, I couldn't be happier with this change of casting. I am also kind of excited to see Dev Patel as an "evil" character this time.
The Last Airbender is based on the Nickelodeon cartoon Avatar: The Last Airbender about Ang, the new Avatar who needs to save the world from the Fire Nation.
So what do you fans of Avatar have to say? Are you excited by this casting news?

M. Night Shyamalan's Cast for THE LAST AIRBENDER

I have known for a while that M. Night Shyamalan was bringing the Nickelodeon cartoon, Avatar: The Last Airbender to the big screen. But it was only recently that the main cast for the movie was announced.
So who will star in M. Night Shyamalan's live-action THE LAST AIRBENDER?

Noah Ringer, a karate star discovered by Shyamalan during an open casting call, will play the part of Aang, the new Avatar who must save the world from the Fire Nation.
No pictures have yet made their way to the net, so it's hard to tell if he looks the part.
