One of my favourite time-wasting activities is looking up AMV's for... stuff. Like Avatar. Here are some good ones for you all to look at. C8
A Toph tribute! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mw1YhwANwLU
A tribute to, um... everything. :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJawMzopwNM
A tribute to Zuko and Azula. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2NV6FRCP9s&feature=related&fmt=18
An AMV of the final battles. If you haven't seen the last few episodes, I suggest you don't watch this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tClYJSXD4lE&fmt=18
BY THE WAY. If you want to see any Youtube video in better visual and au dio quality, just put &fmt=18 at the end of the URL.
In some of the tributes above I already did that, though for others it didn't work. ^^;

What is your favourite part about Avatar the Last Airbender?: Everything? It's one of the few shows that has EVERYTHING in it. What's your favourite episode(s): Zuko Alone was one of my favorites, but I don't remember the rest by name. I'm also a huge Zutara fan, so anything involving the two (like the Southern Raiders and Crossroads of Destiny) are loved. Who is your favourite character(s): Katara, Zuko, the rest of the Gaang... Iroh, Azula and her (former) cronies... xDDD How far are you in Avatar? (Example: Episode 15, Book Two, Done): Been done with it, been watching it over and over on Nicktoons due to their one month dedicated to Avatar. Season One is being shown this week without commercials... yay!

Thanks for joining Feni. ;D
Kohawko; Well, I just stumbled across it a few weeks back. It was in the video's deion and I was like, 'Oh, maybe that actually works. :o' It does.
The movie isn't out here yet. :( HOWEVER. I know what to expect. The trailer makes it look bad, and there are 12 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. (All rotten.)
But I'm still going to see it. I really have no choice; It's Avatar. xD Oh well, if anything I hope I can get a good kick out of it.
I just hope they didn't cut out too many comedical scenes for the sake of making it more epic. :c

It was generally disappointing... The light-hearted nature of the show is sort of lost, and it's pretty rushed (though I guess that's difficult to avoid in shrinking a 400 minute adventure into a fourth of its size). The sc ript is weak, but the fight scenes and visuals were pretty cool. Personally I found the movie to be pretty lame for the most part, although my friend who hadn't watched the series (or even knew it existed lol) said it was amazing.

I know people who have never seen the show before and still say the movie was awful. But, I haven't seen it yet, so I can't really voice my opinion just yet. I'm going to laugh when Zhao kills the moon spirit though. Zhao- Click here."But amid all the wank and lame, it's important to to remember to stop and appreciate the nuggets of awesome you find: like ZHAO PUNCHING A FISH TO DEATH (tho they may add the CG fire later). Now, I don't know about you, but if movie!Zhao straight-up, no bending, flat-out MANPUNCHES a fish in the face? IN THE FACE?! To death?! That movie is GOOOOOLD!"

My other obsessive friend was REALLY disappointed. He told me all about it, which further strengthens my will to NOT go. I've been boycotting the thing since I learned of the casting... But to hear all of the other stuff makes me sick. Ruined the franchise... and don't they have to make two more? >>;

They cut out the Kyoshi Warriors? O__O -sighs- Oh well, I guess there's only so much they could have done to squeeze such a long show (albeit the first third of it) into a typical-length movie. But, seriously. What are they going to do in the next two books? The Kyoshi Warriors get more important. o__e
Yeah Ssather, I heard the effects were good. xD
I think I'll go see it no matter how bad it is supposed to be. If I don't, it will bother me for the rest of my life. ;___;

Yeh. I saw some 'omg secret stuff' thing on TV, and apparently the guy started getting too into the Kyoshi Warriors since they're his favorite.. and then he went the stupid route and cut them out completely. x3 I saw the movie yesterday, and I thought it was decent. Almost qualifies as a So Bad It's Good for me. xD They tried way too hard to be epic, and they definitely lost almost all of the lighthearted spirit we saw in the show (Aang smiled.. maybe once during the whole movie?).. but in the end, that gave it a lot of unintended comical moments. Kinda redeemed it for me - simply for the lulz. I can't help but think it could have been better if they'd tried using a little more time though. I know some people cringe at the thought of sitting down for super-long movies like LotR and kitty!Avatar, but it does seem like things could have been a lot less rushed if they'd extended the runtime. I also kinda gained some respect for certain left-out characters, thanks to the movie. I never realised how much I liked some of them until I realised they might not be there. Especially Koh. Before, I'd really never thought much of him - but then when they first showed Roku's Dragon, I couldn't help but grin to myself. I'd thought it was Koh. But sadly, no. x3 They used his little set of analogies for the fish at one point, but Koh himself never showed up. Also. Pretty much the whole time, I was just waiting for Zhao to manpunch Tui. Thaanks, Dust. xD /ramble

Omg Yosh! 8D I love your rambles.
It's sad to hear that Koh isn't in there. :c I really like him. He would have been really darn epic.
"Also. Pretty much the whole time, I was just waiting for Zhao to manpunch Tui. Thaanks, Dust. xD" He... Zhao did manpunch Tui, right? o__O Or did they fix that?

Yah, Yue was good. Her story seemed kinda shoved onto us (I'm sure I wouldn't have gotten it if I didn't already know it), but she prob'ly showed the most character of anyone there. P:
Ohyay. My rambles have fans. xD I've always just thought they were kinda ridiculous. He basically did. You could hear him pull a knife, but you couldn't see it at all. P:

They do Kohawko, don't worry. ;D I'm not sure if they could get rid of Tui and La. They're crucial to the story. c:
I'm going to see it tomorrow. I'm half dreading it, but I'm still excited to see it. xD

Well. Keep your chin up about it, and you should at least get some laughs. xD Especially after they got into the Northern Water Tribe's city. There were lots of hilarious over-the-top moments there. P: Hurrrrr. I got the name Bato yesterday. |D I'm kinda surprised it was still open - I'd noticed the Creatu in the graveyard at like, the beginning of last month before forgetting about it. So it's been available for at least a couple weeks. Poor Bato. He must feel so unloved. 'Omg I lost my packkkk. 8(' he says. Now I kinda wanna draw a Sirleon all bandaged up, trying to eat whale-nad soup sea prunes and failing horribly. Just for the sake of fun-poking. :D Every character must go through itttt. And bah. After I watched Avatar: The Abridged Series, it always takes me five minutes to remember that they're called sea prunes. Not the other thing. xD

Heck yes, it is. xD The first episode's a little less than on par with most of the others, although it's still got its moments, but the show kinda gets more and more funny as you go. 'S amazering. c: Sadly, there are only about ten episodes. /crai
