I guess that’s why I got into it…because I NEVER saw it on tv. I firs bought it at WalMart because the packaging looked interesting and was instantly hooked. I didn’t even find out it was on Nickelodeon until after watching half of it so I never got that “must be just for kids” impression.
It isn’t just for kids. They don’t cuss in it, but it is pretty clear that Sokka was getting it on with his girlfriend in the tent in the last season.
Every character in that show went through some huge transformation by the end of it…with Zuko’s uncle being the most impressive.

I was talking to a guy the other day about that. I almost missed it because I grouped it with Sponge Bob and all that crap.
Luckily it looks like Nickelodeon hasn’t damaged it’s rep too much.[/quote]
Looks pretty sick. I have not seen, nor have any knowledge of the series. Is there any where online to watch the episodes? Preferably somewhere that won’t destroy my computer.
Although I agree Sokka’s sarcasm sometimes saves an episode and makes it great, even if this movie was in a darker light it’s going to be extremely bad ass.

The toys (action figures & stuff) are also looking good. I work for a company that has the license to make them so if I’m feeling the movie I might get a set.
Now I no longer have to be ashamed - never would’ve thought that so many of you ironbenders have watched it ^^
One of a few series that has managed to spellbind me. It operates on so many emotional levels, imo.
I fear that they haven’t managed to capture the personalities of the characters.

Yeah…but we had years to connect with those characters. I was watching the series again starting last night and there was so much shit I even forgot about…like the first time he met the “face stealer”. That whole battle could be a movie in itself and they were just getting started.

Yes! The face stealer was crazy. You right. That part could be a movie on it own. I think I talked about it earlier in this thread. That thing is freaky, it stuck with me for a while. (Like when the baboon looks at him with no face) The whole idea of him being the tether between the spirit world and the real world is awesome. All the parts where he talks to the former Avatars is great. Even the giant panda part is cool.
I could talk about this series for hours. Pro X brought me a good idea. I think I’m gonna watch the whole thing again.

This. Was shocked to find a thread about it here. Awesome show. Hope the movie’s any good because so far the trailers mostly show action, not personalities.

Motherfucker, did you avatar a screen cap from a VHS fansub of DBZ?
