The Last Airbender

ALSO: If you have any love for the "Avatar" cartoon series, DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE. It's like a bunch of middle schoolers did a really long trailer for the series. The acting was terrible, the pacing was completely fail. Do. Not. Bother. That's the worst thing I've ever paid to see. We came back to my house and watched the first 'book' on DVD.

Also, side note: Swamp coolers suck in humid weather. This is the desert, nature- get with the program! My house is STICKY.

It is SO FREAKING HUMID RIGHT NOW AUUUUGH! *drip sweat gasp burble*

Plus, it's 90f. Sweating isn't helping, it's just dripping.

I really wanted to see The Last Fartsucker ... until I saw the reviews. I've never seen so many 1 and 2 star slamfests. What a shame, I wanted to love it. But I'm not even gonna see it.

Think I'll watch me some Spice & Wolf instead. ;p

Ugh, I can't imagine! If it's this terrible in NM, it's got to be terrifying there. I can't handle feeling like a swamp all day (not like I'm in a swamp, like I AM one!!).

*finds trailer for "Spice & Wolf" online* I... need to watch this immediately !!

You haven't seen Spicey Wolf?? Yes! Yes you do! Give it time, too... though it's quite cool pretty much right away, it just gets better.

The first time you really get to see her true form... well... you can see why he was cowering away from her the first time. Yeah, I'd probably just say "Oooooh, hawt!" but... you can see why a normal person would wigout. :>

Sounds like the kind of movie I'd enjoy.

It's bad, but it's not even bad in the funny way. It's snippets of scenes, with an atrocious amount of narration to try to fill in the gaps. The acting is very stilted and unnatural, from kids and most of the adults alike. I will admit to some of the scenery being nice, but even then it doesn't quite do things justice like the cartoon did.

I thrive on movies that make other people ask for labotomy operations. I even like that HalfLife: Uplink short film!

I am a frightening creature.

My swamp did the same thing, I just pointed a box fan out the window and functionality was restored.
