It would come as no surprise that I’m, indeed, a big fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender; the impresive animation series by Nickelodeon.

It may come as a surprise to you, though, that this incredible series will be translated to a live-action movie. Here’s a the first teaser for you to see:

I admit it, it doesn’t show much but, to me, it shows a lot. Why? Well, first of all I can see the kid playing Anng is, indeed, pretty good with the martial arts movements (or at least his double, I don’t know).Second, It shows a really well made visual style. Something I definitely think is pretty important. And not less important, it shows some pretty good CGI.

And for all of this I couldn’t be happier.

Now, After some invertigation, I found there’s some furor around the cast being all white… I do agree it is not just stupid but even offensive to have all white kids playing the parts of an overtly multicultural cast, a cast with no white people in it to boot.

And, while I adhere to this inconformity, I would’t go as far as to say I wouldn’t watch the movie if this is not fixed… I do certainly know this movie will be good. How do I know this? Just look at the director’s curriculum. you won’t be disappointed.

I can’t believe I only now find out about this, I need to keep more in touch with news.
