Avatar The Last Airbender M Night Shyamalan Movie: Before we start, let’s unfortunately begin with the trailer, shall we?

Actually, oh wait, I don’t want to torture you guys with the trailer; that’s cruel and unusual…..so instead, I’m going to torture you all with this review…

So where do I even begin well firstly this film loosely and rushes the entirety of the first season, yeah let that sink in….rushed and loosely….

But before we get into the ratings and all that I first wanna mention some facts about this movie….

So it’s no surprise that every decision in this movie was one massive mistake, after mistake after mistake on top of even more mistakes……like for instance let’s talk about the accidental racism….the what now?

Yeah accidental racism, so contrary to popular belief no M Night Shyamalan isn’t racist….he didn’t on purpose whitewash the cast….no wanna know how we even got the casting that we did? It’s because his brain cells clearly weren’t connecting that day…..let me Elaborate on that…

For instance, he didn’t cast the Actor of Ong because he’s white, no it turns out he cast that boy because he was great at martial arts….yeah that was it, not acting or for having good charisma…no he based the acting by hey that boy sure as heck has some good martial arts training….

Oh boy, such a great reason to cast an actor…so since he ended up with White Boy Ong he decided that for some reason the entire water tribe needed to be white, so they matched with him…why? I do not know, it’s not like Ong is a part of the same tribe as Sok-ka and Katara….

So he decided to go with hiring a white guy to play Sok-ka and a white girl to play Katara….again just why? This led him to hire a bunch of white people to play the water tribe including the ice princess that Sok-ka falls in love with…

Again why? Oh it doesn’t stop there, so since he decided to hire Dev Patel to play Zuko (who’s an Indian actor) he decided that hey since my version of Zuko is Indian, that means now the entire fire nation is Indian…. again such an odd choice to write the script and characters around the 1 specific ethnic person u decided to hire for a certain role….what a strange man M Night Shyamalama Ding Dong is….

Oh if ur wondering, so if the Fire Nation is now Indian people and the water tribe is a bunch of white people…including the Airbender himself, so what’s Asian left about this IP? Easy the earth Benders are Asian…..well at least he didn’t mess them up …well kinda…

As I said clearly his 2 brain cells weren’t clicking during the hiring process for this movie….I want u to keep in mind the only reason this moron directed this movie in the first place and wrote the screenplay was because he saw his kids watch the anime show and he said hey I should adopt that into live action….ain’t that a good idea?

Yeah, I have a sneaking suspension his own kids have either disowned him or will never let him down for making this movie and are ashamed of him…heck, I would be ashamed of him if I was one of his kids….oh wait I’m still ashamed of him even though I’m not his kid….

Oh and to top things off on this shite cake, he decided the best way to condense down an entire season of Avatar into 1 movie was by having everyone’s dialog be exposition dumping…..sigh, hey kiddos are u excited to watch Avatar The Last Exposition Dump? Well, neither am I…..

Also his excuse to why the characters names are pronounced differently in this movie is because and I quote, I wanted to appeal to the Asian community and be more authentic….except uhh no, the show was already perfect the way it was…that show appealed to every ethnicity including Asians…also u barley have any Asians in this film….so who are u appealing again too?

Also, I want to mention that M Night Shyamalama Ding Dong was the worst pick to direct this movie, also apparently our beloved Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy helped work on this film well with the likes of M Night Shyamalama Ding Dong and Kathleen Calamity Kennedy, I’m sure we’re in for a great movie now, aren’t we?

So let’s get into the review, shall we? By the way this will be slightly different…y’all will see what I mean, but firstly the rating…..overall this is a horrible movie. I don’t know why Nickelodeon Hired M Night Shyamalama Ding Dong, but they sure as heck paid the consequences….this has got to be one of the worst adaptations I’ve ever seen, this pisses on the source material that is the anime…

So this film gets a big fat 0/10 in my book…..also spoilers ahead, but really, who cares about spoilers for this movie?

So in this film (nah Let’s not recap season 1. We already know what happens. Let’s skip a bit, I’ll give the abridged versions of events), Sokka and Katara….oh wait, sorry my bad, I meant So-ka…..yeah, don’t worry folks this entire film is riddled with poor pronunciations of characters names…..so anyways after they save Aang (oh wait my bad) I meant Ong…..good grief were in for a ride with this…I think we will lose some brain cells after this review…

So we already know what happens: Zuko and his men come to arrest the Avatar….although knowing this film, I’m surprised they didn’t pronounce Zuko’s name as Zoko….or I don’t know Zuk-ko…or better yet, why not Zookoo?

BTW let me take a moment to talk about the elephant in the room, and that elephant is called the whitewashing…yeah they whitewashed the entire cast, so the characters who are supposed to be Asians are now played by a bunch of white people…. oh boy, we’re digging our grave now aren’t we?

Anyway, things get worse, so Ong says I’ll go with you if you leave the town alone….which he does, and for some reason, Katara feels like it’s her and Sok-ka’s responsibility to take care of Ong….yet I don’t know why she’d feel like that, they’ve had all of 3 min of dialog together….and it was awkward…

I mean, Ong is in a hut, and Katara enters. She asks what happened to him. How did he end up in the giant ice ball? And Aang, sorry, Ong! Smiles, and while he smiles, he says well, I ran away from home because I was sad…but it’s time for me to go home now…..keep in mind while he’s smiling the entire time as if this is funny, and Katara is just standing there smiling nodding her head up and down….wow, I can feel the chemistry in this room…I can see why this 100-year-old boy in a 12-year-old body is now your responsibility…I mean he smiled while saying I ran away because I had a tantrum…yep better go save that kid now, ugh

So, on Zuko ship, we get introduced to Uncle Iroh…oh, sorry, I meant Uncle Eroh. Ahh silly me, how do I keep forgetting this film’s butcher characters’ names? Yes, clearly must be my fault and not the fault of the scriptwriters….also dear lord, I think I had an intense reaction to hearing these names butchered beyond repair…..

Also, Erhoh looks nothing like he does in the anime, here he’s just some random in-shape guy with long black hair with grey in it and a default black beard with grey in it…wow yep, that screams Uncle Iroh, yep that’s an Eroh if I’ve ever seen one…lolo

So the gang rides Oppa to save Ong! And he escapes the ship, but not before he runs down a hallway on the ship…oh, sorry, did I say run? No, I meant to say he used Airbending to push himself slightly on the wall and run on the side of it for all of 2 and a half seconds just to get around 2 guards…ugh

So the gang flies out and heads to the abandoned temple where Ong was raised…yeah we all know how this goes, so why don’t I take this moment to talk about someone I’ve not mentioned yet….and it’s Fire Lord Ozai…..yeah what?

Yeah, so in this film, we just get to see Fire Lord Ozai and he looks awful…..he looks nothing like the anime version, where in the anime, he has a pointy goatee and long hair with a ponytail, here he has short curly hair and that’s it…wow good job on the look….also he’s played by the guy who is in Fear The Walking Dead…..yeah that guy who played the father of the drug addict….yeah doesn’t that just scream Fire Lord Ozai?….moving on

So let’s get the rest of the plot out of the way, let’s do a speed run…so then we can get to the ranting…so blah blah, Ong goes to a temple where he meets a monk, the monk lures Ong here to get captured by the Fire Nation…..Zhao interrogates him. Then Zuko saves Ong while wearing his Blue Spirit outfit……after fighting off the guards together, Ong finds out it is Zuko…then Ong escapes to the Ice Village where Sok-ka and Katara are….there Sok-Ka meets Princess Yue, who looks like she has some sort of hairstyle…..

To put it bluntly, her hairstyle looks like a Penis…..so anyways, Sok-ka starts falling in love with her….the Fire Nation shows up, a battle happens….general Zhao decides to stabby stab stab the God fish like in the anime….uncle Iroh sorry I meant Eroh tries stopping him from doing so…..then Penis hair lady sacrifices herself and becomes the moon god…Ong uses his avatar form to kill the Fire Nation using water, uncle Eroh kills Zhao with little to no ease…yet he doesn’t kill Zhao in the anime, so I don’t get this change….

And that is how the film ends where book 1 ended, except then we get an end credit scene of Fire Lord Ozai saying Sozin Comet will come back in 3 years….yeah yall are funny; yall thought you were going to make sequels to this….ha ha nice try, then we see he’s talking to Azula…dunn dunn dunn, who cares….now let’s get into some moments that just hurt watching then talk about the infamous Airbending scene…..

So how to put it lightly, the acting in this film is atrocious….and nothing proves that more accurately than one scene where Sokka, Katara, and Ong are together in the forest….where Sok-ka asks this (and keep in mind with no emotion or enthusiasm in the voice) “so……are you the Ovatar Ong? (Scuffs)….haha haha are you the Ovatar Ong….seriously couldn’t that line been said with any more emotions…..also Ovatar? Really?

Don’t worry, things get worse, so they get taken to a Fire Bending prison where Ong Rallies a group of Earth Benders to escape and not be slaves…and oh boy it’s time for the infamous Earth Bending scene….cue the clip

Hahahahahah what the, what the heck! Is anything those Earth Benders just did!? Where do I even begin to break this down? Well, I guess that we can start with the fact of how goofy it looks the way the 6 of them are doing a synchronized dancing/chant/screaming while waving their arms around randomly…all to summon one single pebble?

One single pebble!! Wow, that was so effective….what was even the point? I mean, did the editors promise oh, don’t worry about looking silly, we will edit yall in the post and make it so that your characters summoned several rocks…but instead, they ran out of budget and only had enough to CGI in one single pebble? A single pebble!!! What am I watching!!?

BTW in the show, the reason the Earth Benders can’t bend their way out is because the prison is made of metal and over an ocean instead of on land…but here the prison is firmly on land…so I don’t get why the Earth Benders here didn’t try to escape…

But to be fair after watching 6 of them do a Choreographed dance to summon/move 1 single pebble, I think they should have definitely given up as well….

Also the Earth Benders mention to Ong and the group how they look up to Avatar Kyoshi and that she just loved playing games….ahh yes that’s what I think of when I think about Avatar Kyoshi…she clearly just loved playing games….kill me…

Anyways let’s get to the ending of this garbage film….so the third act takes place in the ice village from the end of the first season…because this movie is a loose adaptation of season 1….which I still have an issue that M Night Shyamalama Ding Dong tried to jam 1 whole season and some elements of season 2 into 1 movie! The hell was he even thinking!?

Bet he wasn’t thinking at all, anyways they’re Sokka falls in love with the ice princess who looks like her hair is in the shape of a penis…..anyways let’s just what else u want? We’ve seen season 1 we know what happens….

Zuko frees Aang from prison, wearing the Blue Spirit mask although for some reason this Blue Spirit mask has whacky puffy black hair for some reason…..Thao and his men show up and he kills the spirit fish…Iroh tries to stop him, but it doesn’t work…so the princess sacrifices herself to become the new spirit god….blah blah yes we’ve all heard it before….yada yada

So unhappy ending, Aang uses the water power he learned to wipe out the fire nation, but at what cost? The princess died….wooo who cares, also there’s a mid-credit scene for some reason…..where we see Fire Lord Ozai talking about Sozins Comet….

I’m sorry I can’t say that with a straight face, the fact they even thought they were gonna make a sequel is laughable….also guess who he’s talking to? It’s Azula…..who cares! Anyways the end God this movie is atrocious….it’s infamous for a reason….there’s nothing else to say about this movie except for…

I’m glad they never did a sequel it would have been a mess, plz M Night Shyamalan never touch this IP ever again….overall I don’t recommend it, hope yall enjoy this review plz share it with people u know…..thanks.
