AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER
Be Pro-Active -
I debunk common defensive/dismissing/condescending/uninformed comments about The Last Airbender movie getting an all-white cast.

You had questions, I got answers.

yeah, i'm beginning to feel a little sorry for shyamalan. maybe he couldn't even walk away if he wanted to because of some contractual trap. idk.

you know one of the good things to have come of this hot mess? to be very self-centred for a moment, then - i'm probably going to end up watching this show religiously. (and probably avoiding the movie if it goes through with that cast.) heh.

[glockgal]

Ahahaha! That is definitely one good thing to come out from all of this!! It's such a good cartoon, innit. XD

you're right :/ if i'd been in his shoes, i would have dropped it like a dead thing and done angry press conferences.

[glockgal]

Right back atcha, babe. For real.

...transplant the Avatar:TLA story/plot into a Western world...

WHAT. So...it wouldn't be Avatar anymore, basically. Good god, but this is appalling. Thank you so much for posting all of those letter-writing links and info, btw. I need to vent my outrage in a CONSTRUCTIVE way.

*sighs*

So...it wouldn't be Avatar anymore, basically.

Exactly. And then in my mind it would just be another case of the Hellblazer comics becoming Constantine movie....in which case I wouldn't even care cause it's just not the same thing. Feh.

YES. OMG venting outrage in a letter is intensely cathartic I find. I'm loving it! XD

Ooh! Good sluthing, Lori! Should I be writing to the studio head at Paramount as well? Or should I just stick to Frank Marshall and Kathleen Kennedy?

[glockgal]

OOOH!!! Why not to the studio head!! Do they have a name of some sort? I would totes love it if you did, because you're awesome.

Also, you'd be sooo proud that I managed to find those addresses out all my myself. Your Google-fu has rubbed off on me! XD

SWEETSVILLE. I added your comment (and quote you, HEEE) to my letter-writing post, so people will see the names!!

*MWAH* YOU ARE THE BESTEST. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

[cathybites]

I haven't commented yet BUT I wanted you to know that I have sent my letters of outrage over this. I don't even watch the show, but not only is this an important issue that needs to be addressed, it's important to YOU and YOU are important to me. <333

*FLAILS*

Dude, I am sooooo happy to know you got my back. I wouldn't have it any other way, for true. Thank you SO MUCH!!! MY BOOO. OMG GONNA CRY NOW. NOT AT WORK. NOT AT WORK.
