shadydaveSo you know what was one of the many awesome things about Hero (besides my subject line)? The way it was about Asian countries and thus starred actual Asian people! And that is why The Last Failbender can never really be awesome.
That, and the teaser is all kinds of special.
Yeah, thanks a lot, M. Night.
Visually, the rest of the trailer looks kinda cool. At least Pancakes knows his kung-fu (or whatever).
Though apparently Aang hates votive candles. Who knew?
While I vehemently loathe most of their casting decisions, I must applaud their bold decision to replace the main character with Little Red Riding Hood.
However, this is all undercut by the terrible narration:
He is the last
Of the Time Lords.
of his kind...
Oh.
All that remains of a once powerful nation...
Um, I must be thinking of the OTHER Air Nomads.
Some think that he is a myth... some believe he is the chosen one, who will bring balance to
The Force.
a world at war...
Oh.
and some will stop at nothing to destroy him.
They're talking about the casting director, right?
The next section is accompanied by random pirate music. (Hopefully, this is not actually an homage to Torchwood.) Remember, kids: stealing is wrong, unless it's from pirates!
Well, at least the Air Temple looks nice.
...even if it's an unexpected shorefront property.
Oh cripes, run! It's the teaser from Troy!
And the Fire Nation promptly tries to burn down the movie. Def the smart move.
Have they managed to get the Earth Kingdom symbol wrong on their first trailer ever? Because if so, bravo.
"Special FX by Industrial Light and Morons!"
Well, James Newton Howard explains the pirate music.
Written, produced, and directed? Uh oh...
And now we know who to blame!
I dunno about you guys, but I, for one, cannot wait to not pay any money for this movie whatsoever.

"Um, I must be thinking of the OTHER Air Nomads."
Our suspicions that this whole fiasco is the evil mirror verse continues to be proven accurate.
I applaud the Fire Nation for trying to get out while it still can.
"Written, directed, and produced by ..."
Either this is a poorly made ego trip, or MNS is currently trying to be the worst. fanboy. ever.
Thoughts?

Well, he's written, directed, and produced ALL of his stuff. Unfortunately, this has yielded diminishing returns on account of his going CRAZY, so I do not have great hopes for script coherency.
I think he's already won the title of WFE though.
