    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The film was intended to be the first part of a trilogy, with the next two films being based on books 2 and 3. While the film ultimately made a modest profit at the box office, about $150,000,000 was spent on production with another $130,000,000 spent on advertising, which would bring a total of $280,000,000 spent on one movie. Therefore, The Last Airbender did not gross enough to have Paramount green light the last two sequels. However a new live action remake series of the original animated show is in development for Netflix.
    • Goofs
      During a large battle scene between the Fire Nation and the Northern Water Tribe, the camera pans to reveal a Fire Nation soldier fighting with no one.
    • Quotes

      Uncle Iroh: [to Zuko, after Aang has escaped] It was not by chance that for generations people have been searching for him, and now you have found him. Your destinies are tied, Zuko.

    • Crazy credits
      The closing credits feature Aang, Katara and Zuko bending their respective elements of water, fire and air (no earth bending is demonstrated).
    • Alternate versions
      Also released in a 3D version.
    • Connections
      Featured in Siskel & Ebert: Knight and Day/The Killer Inside Me/South of the Border/Restrepo/I Am Love/Wild Grass (2010)

    Lazy lazy and utterly predictable
    No story, no history, absolutely dreadful script and acting that is frankly despicable. You can't write. You can't make up a world arbitrarily with no fleshing or effort. The Happening and Lady in the Water were terrible. This is much worse.

    Shame on you you lazy lazy man. The talent is there. Your ego is simply unable to get past it. Go away and let someone hungry and brave who doesn't live in a fantasy world in their own nether-regions produce something.

    You owe me my ticket and the complete waste of one and a half hours of my life. Tosser
