Happy April Fool's Day!

Is that how that goes? I'm not quite sure...since usually April Fools is filled with jokes and sometimes you're not happy if you're in the receiving end of it. For those of you who know of Cardcaptor Sakura/Cardcaptors, did you know that Sakura Kinomoto (the heroine) was born on April 1st? Okay maybe April Fools isn't ( Read more... )

Rant away! I don't mind. That's all I seem to be doing lately with my journal anyways. It's like an Avatar journal as of late.

I thought the trailer was really cool though, but yeah the name thing is annoying. He says it's a personal thing. I mean I get it...and yet I don't get it. People don't like it when dubbers butcher anime names, and I guess to him it's that way. But since Mike and Bryan (who aren't Asian) thought of the names...I can't say I agree with M. Night since it's Bryke's story and not his.

He's trying to make it his own...doing it the wrong way, ticking off the fandom.

I do have a lot of things to say ( ... )

So true! About everything! Having a white guy in an Asian setting was even brought up in the Forbidden Kingdom when Jackie Chan and Jet Li's characters were laughing at the guy for being white...well what they said was that he wasn't Chinese. Also M. Night even said that Toph would be Asian which is weird since he says he looks at the casting like a blind person--and yet he's already saying that Toph's actress will be Asian. Why? Has she been already cast? I doubt it. It seems like he's saying that to appease the fans ( ... )

It's what I don't like about Shamaylan's (or however his name's spelt) idea about casting certain nations certain races. Why make Katara and Sokka Caucasion? Does this mean the Water Tribes will be primarily Caucasion? Living in one of the poles in such a harsh climate probably doesn't encourage lots of immigration and mixing. And why was he talking about Africans? Where would he put them ( ... )

Don't worry, if I don't know what you're saying I'll definitely let you know. I pretty much agree with everything you just said from the airport to Ursa to Aizen and Chad so anything I say will sound redundant.
