The Last Airbender (2010)
This is NOT a bad movie!
I honestly cannot figure out why people hated this movie so much. I am a huge fan of the cartoon series and of course, the movie wasn't as good as the show but I think they did an excellent job of condensing the first season into an hour and forty-five minutes, give or take. It is a given that some things would be left out or even changed minutely to fit the big screen and time restrictions better but overall, the movie stuck with the storyline of the show very well. It does help to be familiar with the series before watching the movie but it is not a necessity. I will be severely disappointed if the sequels don't get made just because some the critics were harsh about it. I would like to hear the names pronounced as they are in the series if the sequels are made though. It was a bit confusing to have it changed for apparently no reason, even if the movie pronunciations are the "correct" way to pronounce the names. The only other thing that I think could have been better was if there was some more humor integrated into the dialogue but without the leisure of the often-hilarious side quests like are found in the series, I can understand why it was hard to make the rather serious plot funny.
