Unfortunately, put his hopes in Katara and pray she doesn't ruin things like normal.

And no, "hopes" is not a euphemism for anything, dammit. :mad

But though Mike and Bryan seem to believe that their will be no more Airbenders, no one accepts this one bit. Actually, I'm pretty sure Konietzko's not convinced, either.

I heard there's an irish dub and that it's really good.

I seem to recall a Gaelic dub, too. There was a false rumor that Boiling Rock aired early over there, with some ridiculous fake spoilers.

but I'm white, so Night would obviously give me a part. :zaru
You're upset too, huh? Most people are, including me.

I wasn't really sure what to expect in the cast, but Jesse McCartney wasn't really what I had in mind. :zaru

And thanks for the forum name props. smile-big

I wasn't initially upset... at least not with the racial aspect of things. I was more concerned with other facets of this, such as JESSE MCCARTNEY is PRINCE ZUKO. But I've come around on the Aang-Aint-White crowd. It's pretty inexcusable.

But it's a great platform for lulz, so I excuse it. :kaga

Yes I just finished listening to it. When he says that Avatar is this "cartoon Anime that was explosively huge in Asia and then brought to the U.S." it only confirmed to me that he truly is the best choice for the role.

Wow.
He just should have said nothing.

I think it's great that he's learning Kung Fu and "fighting with different ninjas" but this must be for another film because I don't recall ninjas in Avatar.
Perhaps he's working on a live-action Naruto film?
"Cartoon anime that was explosively huge in Asia and then brought to the U.S."
"Fighting with different Ninjas"?
Hmm.....
Hey I'd be more than happy to pass him along to the Narutards here.

In Happier news, Avatar will be continued in the form of comics within Nick Magazine. The stories will be set within the 3 seasons and we might see some tales set a year before Aang was told he was the Avatar. Considering this online community was built a comic book, I'd think you'd appreciate it somewhat. Check out some upcoming art.
http://community.livejournal.com/avatar_fans/2800860.html

I'm looking forward to the story that is drawn by Elsa Garagarza seeing as I have never seen the Avatar world and it's characters in such detail. She was also a background artist on the show, don't know how I missed this blog but you can see some of the work she did here -

Wow, what an idiot :oh
He doesn't even bother to know about his rolesake.
Is he confusing Avatar with Naruto?
and "Ninjas" have been in every culture, in Avatar, the "Ninjas" were Zuko, and the Dai Li

I've decided to transcribe this, thinking that it might actually take my mind off the content:

The Jesse McCartney Interview


Dude with baritone surfer-brah voice: What's going with you IN the movies and stuff? Are you still, dijfhw, I know you signed on for Chipmunks 2, aaand what else?

Live Action Prince Zuko: Signed on for Chipmunks 2... I think ah, I don't think I had actually had word on this, uh, until after I saw you guys last, but, um, I'm gonna be in M. Night Shyamalan, gonna be starring in M. Night Shyamalan's new movie that we're filming, uhh, this March called The Last Airbender...

**Female co-host hoe-ma ooo's at the mention of something she's never heard of before**

Future Firebender Continues: ...which is, uh, the first, uh, the first part in a trilogy, um, based on an anime series that was HUUUUGE, like, cartoon anime series called Avatar: the Last Airbender that was explosively huge in Asia that they brought to the US (:facepalm) and it was on for, like three seasons.

Low voice DJ dude: DUDE, I watch it it's on Nickelodeon right now!

The Salve sucking all the life out of me right now: On Nickelodeon, exactly, yeah...

Some guy, probably the sound effects dude, that decided to jump out of nowhere: (over Jesse) What's it about?

Sighhhhhh: ...three part, three part series, and uh, I'm... gonna be playing Zuko, wheh, which is sort of, he's kind of the "evil Prince," um, the Fire Lord's son, and, and M. Night's directing and we're going to Greenland to start shooting for three weeks

**Traffic and Weather Together guy is wowed by that notion. Also believe I hear the chick almost inaudibly coo again**

Future Evil Prince: ...and then, and then we go to, uhhh, and then we go to Philly for two months, and we finish filming. It's been crazy I've been in, HEY JOHN JAY, you'll like this, I've been in KUNG FU, dude, for like three hours a day, like

John Jay (Previously deep voiced annoying man): (over Jesse) NO WAAAAY, DUDE!

Martial arts neophyte:... like this crazy martial arts and stuff, fighting with, like, different ninjas... It's crazy, man.

(me at this point: :cry. Seriously.)

John Jay!!! : Duuude that is, uhhh... (everyone talk at once!)... are you getting like, abs and cut and stuff, like... Kung Fu abs?

Ninja Arts: No Research Jutsu!: Duuuude, like, it's the best workout, LIKE, EVER! Like, three hours a day, better than any, like, lifting workout or any cardio workout. Like, it's a lot of aerobics, and a lot of using muscles that you don't usually use, its... you gotta try, maan. And it's addictive, um ah, I, ahhh, like, I finish something, I finish all these different sets, like, I'm in the middle of the double saber swords set and, like, you get, like, halfway through and you're just like, "Man I gotta... this is so much fun."

And uh... you can see and feel the difference; like, it's a crazy workout.

A surfer voice dude named John... John From Cincinnati???!: Can you fight now? Do you think you can fight somebody Kung Fu?

Jesse McCartney (out of demeaning nicknames): OH YEAH!

John From Cincinnati: Reeeally? Like Jack Black?

(God. fucking. dammit. :facepalm)

Jesse: Nahp, ah, nah, nah, no, no...

Fucking moron DJ: Animation, you know, chipmunk... maybe Theodore against, against Po.

Quirky Sidekick: (laughing) Like Kung Fu Panda (continues laughing)

Jesse: We all know, Theodore knows Kung Fu, too. He knows more Kung Fu than I do.

** Chick gives a smarmy "yeah" for some reason, as if these guys always argue over how much Kung Fu Theodore from The Chipmunks knows, and Jesse just proved her right**

Braindead DJ John Jay: Dude, that is... now when's that movie planning on coming out? (Like it's the movie itself, the movie decides when it will be released)

Jessssse: I'm not sure exactly, to tell you the truth. I, umm, theym, I'm not sure if they're gonna, they might go for, um, a Christmas release this year, ummmm, if they can get it together in time but, uh, IIII, I don;t know the answer to that.

John Jay (not the guy from The Federalist Papers: Who else is in it?

Jesse: What;s that?

John Jay (not the guy from The Federalist Papers: Who else is in it?

Depleted Brain Jesse: It's the same cast, uh, as far as I know. I know that, uhhh...

Double J: No no, no no. The Avatar deal...

Deleted Brain Jesse: Oh, OH, oh, oh sorry, yeah, in the Avatar film. There's, ummmm, kjefhief, again, there's only been, like, two people attached other than myself. Ummmm... one of the, one of the peoples, one of the girls her name is Nicola. She's been in a few films. I forget her last name, but she's, GORGEOUS, and she's an amazing actress.

And theeeen, one of the guys from Twilight is, uh, gonna beee... ummm... playing one of the other male roles. (:facepalm!!!!!) Jackson, again, don't remember his last name. This is all very recent, very new news.

Third wheel guy: That's cool!!! You playing an evil prince, I'm down with that!

John Jay, Commander: I know it sounds like one of the first movies M. Night has done that's not, like, his own, like cushhzz, you could, you know how you don't know the endings mostly, or the twist to the M. Night Movies....

Jesse: Right, right...

DJ still going on: This, clearly, he's trying to do something totally different, isn't he?

Trenchant Young Fire Royalty: Well, no, it's pretty much set up for him, you know, and, and, uh, he's just gotta make it his own, and, and, and Night is the best at that, you know he;s really good with that stuff and it's, um, it's, you know, pretty much laid out for him. There's three parts to the movie, you know? There's a beginning, middle, and end. I just actually finished the script last night, um, finished reading the first script and, uhhh, it's, it's amazing, man. It's gonna be, like, a crazy, action packed, like, just, really entertaining type movie.

J. Jay: Well, and it;s already going to have a huge following, but here's the thing needszda, eh, what it says about you and your career, is that, that M. Night, dude... he works with just names, dude. He's got Bruce Willis, Samuel Jackson (cronies agree with him), Mark Wahlberg, Joaquin Phoenix, yanaw what I mean? Jesse McCartney, dude.

Jesse McCartney, dude: He's definitely one of the biggest directors of our time, right now, like...

Provocative John Jay!!!: His last movie sucked, though. The uh (chick starts to protest), that Happening movie bit.

Token Shrill Chick, finally getting her 2 cents in: You had everybody talking about it...though... whether you liked it or not, everybody was talking about it.

The Goddamned John Jay: Maybe at the end we find out you're dead?

Worthless sidekick: The whole time?

John Jay: The whole time, Jesse was dead.

Worthless sidekick There was no evil prince? (laughter)

A sensitive John Jay: You know, it's funny, dude, because you got those big eyes, you kinda look like one of those, uh, anime movie

Vacant Girl: Awwwwwww, he's so cute. Well, you do have the anime spiky hair, they always have cute hair. (Loser sidekick agrees)

Incoherent John Jay: That's a good call, dude. That was a good hire on their part. I, I, I agree, it was good, it was good...


So, what do we have?

1. Jesse is a likable young man that did very little research, and then forgot most of even that small amount.

2. Jesse wants to make Zutara a reality. :hurr

3. DJ's across this country and FUCKING IDIOTS

4. Hey Rekky, wanna test his Kung Fu? :LOS

And theeeen, one of the guys from Twilight is, uh, gonna beee... ummm... playing one of the other male roles. (:facepalm!!!!!) Jackson, again, don't remember his last name. This is all very recent, very new news.

Third wheel guy: That's cool!!! You playing an evil prince, I'm down with that!

John Jay, Commander: I know it sounds like one of the first movies M. Night has done that's not, like, his own, like cushhzz, you could, you know how you don't know the endings mostly, or the twist to the M. Night Movies....

Jesse: Right, right...

DJ still going on: This, clearly, he's trying to do something totally different, isn't he?

Trenchant Young Fire Royalty: Well, no, it's pretty much set up for him, you know, and, and, uh, he's just gotta make it his own, and, and, and Night is the best at that, you know he;s really good with that stuff and it's, um, it's, you know, pretty much laid out for him. There's three parts to the movie, you know? There's a beginning, middle, and end. I just actually finished the script last night, um, finished reading the first script and, uhhh, it's, it's amazing, man. It's gonna be, like, a crazy, action packed, like, just, really entertaining type movie.

J. Jay: Well, and it;s already going to have a huge following, but here's the thing needszda, eh, what it says about you and your career, is that, that M. Night, dude... he works with just names, dude. He's got Bruce Willis, Samuel Jackson (cronies agree with him), Mark Wahlberg, Joaquin Phoenix, yanaw what I mean? Jesse McCartney, dude.

Jesse McCartney, dude: He's definitely one of the biggest directors of our time, right now, like...

Provocative John Jay!!!: His last movie sucked, though. The uh (chick starts to protest), that Happening movie bit.

Token Shrill Chick, finally getting her 2 cents in: You had everybody talking about it...though... whether you liked it or not, everybody was talking about it.

The Goddamned John Jay: Maybe at the end we find out you're dead?

Worthless sidekick: The whole time?

John Jay: The whole time, Jesse was dead.

Worthless sidekick There was no evil prince? (laughter)

A sensitive John Jay: You know, it's funny, dude, because you got those big eyes, you kinda look like one of those, uh, anime movie

Vacant Girl: Awwwwwww, he's so cute. Well, you do have the anime spiky hair, they always have cute hair. (Loser sidekick agrees)

Incoherent John Jay: That's a good call, dude. That was a good hire on their part. I, I, I agree, it was good, it was good...


So, what do we have?

1. Jesse is a likable young man that did very little research, and then forgot most of even that small amount.

2. Jesse wants to make Zutara a reality. :hurr

3. DJ's across this country and FUCKING IDIOTS

4. Hey Rekky, wanna test his Kung Fu? :LOS

Concerning the Ninjas thing, I remember reading this little thing a few years ago which was a summary of the Avatar panel at PMX' 06.

someone asked whether they would ever include ninjitsu in the styles used in the show to which Sifu Kisu and Bryan were both like, UH NO. Bryan (who seemed quite chafed by the idea!) talked about how ninjas are hitmen and assassins and they poison people and have no honor code, so that's not cool for their characters. "Having a kids' hitman show might be a little weird." Though, Sifu Kisu pointed out that the pirates were ninjas which Bryan didn't have a problem with really. Just no ninjaing for his main characters!

Well, it's hard to pick a favorite moment from the interview, but here's my...


Top 5 Moments from the Jesse McCartney Interview

5. The Jack Black reference. I mean, really now.

4. The "OH YEAH" response to whether he can fight people with Kung Fu. This is actually because I liked it. Is it absurd? Yes. But at least the kid is getting into it. I'm not joking, I actually thought it was endearing.

3. Jesse's response to the question about other cast members. The guy mentioned Theodore in passing... why did Jesse believe that meant they were back on Chipmunks 2?

2. Jesse correcting JohnJay, explaining that everything;s laid out for M. Night. A beginning, followed by a middle, and then... the end.

1. Jesse desperately trying to remember Sokka's name, and, in his failure, just refers to him as another "male character." :rotfl


I'm telling you guys... just watch. Watch this kid knock Zuko OUT OF THE PARK. Watch him OWN this character. We'll look back and wonder, wonder how he managed to pull it off. Is he an idiot savant? Did something click? Did he just understand that character, and nothing else? It's possible. It could happen.

This is my 700th post in this thread. 1K is possible. But it;s not about the numbers; I'm just grateful as ever that Nick decided to import this crazy magical fantasy from Asia to the US.

:I've decided to transcribe this, thinking that it might actually take my mind off the content:

The Jesse McCartney Interview


Dude with baritone surfer-brah voice: What's going with you IN the movies and stuff? Are you still, dijfhw, I know you signed on for Chipmunks 2, aaand what else?

Live Action Prince Zuko: Signed on for Chipmunks 2... I think ah, I don't think I had actually had word on this, uh, until after I saw you guys last, but, um, I'm gonna be in M. Night Shyamalan, gonna be starring in M. Night Shyamalan's new movie that we're filming, uhh, this March called The Last Airbender...

**Female co-host hoe-ma ooo's at the mention of something she's never heard of before**

Future Firebender Continues: ...which is, uh, the first, uh, the first part in a trilogy, um, based on an anime series that was HUUUUGE, like, cartoon anime series called Avatar: the Last Airbender that was explosively huge in Asia that they brought to the US (:facepalm) and it was on for, like three seasons.

Low voice DJ dude: DUDE, I watch it it's on Nickelodeon right now!

The Salve sucking all the life out of me right now: On Nickelodeon, exactly, yeah...

Some guy, probably the sound effects dude, that decided to jump out of nowhere: (over Jesse) What's it about?

Sighhhhhh: ...three part, three part series, and uh, I'm... gonna be playing Zuko, wheh, which is sort of, he's kind of the "evil Prince," um, the Fire Lord's son, and, and M. Night's directing and we're going to Greenland to start shooting for three weeks

**Traffic and Weather Together guy is wowed by that notion. Also believe I hear the chick almost inaudibly coo again**

Future Evil Prince: ...and then, and then we go to, uhhh, and then we go to Philly for two months, and we finish filming. It's been crazy I've been in, HEY JOHN JAY, you'll like this, I've been in KUNG FU, dude, for like three hours a day, like

John Jay (Previously deep voiced annoying man): (over Jesse) NO WAAAAY, DUDE!

Martial arts neophyte:... like this crazy martial arts and stuff, fighting with, like, different ninjas... It's crazy, man.

(me at this point: :cry. Seriously.)

John Jay!!! : Duuude that is, uhhh... (everyone talk at once!)... are you getting like, abs and cut and stuff, like... Kung Fu abs?

Ninja Arts: No Research Jutsu!: Duuuude, like, it's the best workout, LIKE, EVER! Like, three hours a day, better than any, like, lifting workout or any cardio workout. Like, it's a lot of aerobics, and a lot of using muscles that you don't usually use, its... you gotta try, maan. And it's addictive, um ah, I, ahhh, like, I finish something, I finish all these different sets, like, I'm in the middle of the double saber swords set and, like, you get, like, halfway through and you're just like, "Man I gotta... this is so much fun."

And uh... you can see and feel the difference; like, it's a crazy workout.

A surfer voice dude named John... John From Cincinnati???!: Can you fight now? Do you think you can fight somebody Kung Fu?

Jesse McCartney (out of demeaning nicknames): OH YEAH!

John From Cincinnati: Reeeally? Like Jack Black?

(God. fucking. dammit. :facepalm)

Jesse: Nahp, ah, nah, nah, no, no...

Fucking moron DJ: Animation, you know, chipmunk... maybe Theodore against, against Po.

Quirky Sidekick: (laughing) Like Kung Fu Panda (continues laughing)

Jesse: We all know, Theodore knows Kung Fu, too. He knows more Kung Fu than I do.

** Chick gives a smarmy "yeah" for some reason, as if these guys always argue over how much Kung Fu Theodore from The Chipmunks knows, and Jesse just proved her right**

Braindead DJ John Jay: Dude, that is... now when's that movie planning on coming out? (Like it's the movie itself, the movie decides when it will be released)

Jessssse: I'm not sure exactly, to tell you the truth. I, umm, theym, I'm not sure if they're gonna, they might go for, um, a Christmas release this year, ummmm, if they can get it together in time but, uh, IIII, I don;t know the answer to that.

John Jay (not the guy from The Federalist Papers: Who else is in it?

Jesse: What;s that?

John Jay (not the guy from The Federalist Papers: Who else is in it?

Depleted Brain Jesse: It's the same cast, uh, as far as I know. I know that, uhhh...

Double J: No no, no no. The Avatar deal...

Deleted Brain Jesse: Oh, OH, oh, oh sorry, yeah, in the Avatar film. There's, ummmm, kjefhief, again, there's only been, like, two people attached other than myself. Ummmm... one of the, one of the peoples, one of the girls her name is Nicola. She's been in a few films. I forget her last name, but she's, GORGEOUS, and she's an amazing actress.

Well...it looks like the war over race in film might be put aside so that the fandom can come together over Jesse's cluelessness regarding the source material and his role as Prince Zuko.

I would take a beautifully animated feature film that has no relevance to the main story arc over what this live-action movie seems to be turning into.

Aang and the gang are headed to Ba Sing Se, encounter a threat, are joined by Zuko at some point, a Non-canonical final battle ensues and then the story picks up at The Serpent's Pass. Sounds like a mess but it's better than the nightmare of what's going on with this Live-action film.

"Hey Jesse, come back to bed, me and the rest cheerleading squad aren't done with you yet"

"Now right now baby, I got to watch Avatar"
You've definitely got a point there. And you're right, it shouldn't matter as long as Jesse keeps Zuko IC. Still, you have to admit the lack of knowledge about his role is just a tad amusing.

Yes, it is.

I'm just saying that people shouldn't abandon all hope and declare the movie a failure (before the sets have even been built) because of it.

Yes, it is.

Oh, that is the dilemma, isn't it?

If the movies are successful, does Bryke renounce the lowbrow medium of television?

Or, if the movie totally fails, does Nickelodeon tell Bryke that they'll be turned away at the entrance if they show their faces around Nick Studios ever again?


Best scenario: the movies are moderately successful. A happy medium in which Nick is happy and Mike and Bryan don't get too ambitious.

Any word if there ever going to release an OST for Avatar, a show with such good music needs an OST.

The desire for an OST must be pretty well known amongst Nick Executives... and yet, there's still no word on whether this is even being considered. The Track Team just posted a few days ago on their Myspace page, but it was about the completion of a soundtrack for a film.

I can't wait for the OST, if anything, for the total bedlam that will occur when the tracklisting is released. Because, for all the clamor for this over the last few years, just about everyone in the fandom will have one favored piece that didn't make it, and there will be OUTRAGE!

The guy from Slumdog Millionaire (Dev Patel, who can actually act) is the new Zuko.

Oh, and here's Suki

Shit. Just realized that good news took my brain all unawares. Dev Patel looks like he'd be a perfect Sokka, so I mistakenly thought that he was, even though I read that he'd be Zuko.

Why cast him as Zuko? Drop Rathbone, get another actor with chops and less melanin than Patel, and cast him as Zuko. And let Patel play the role he seems to be made for. Sokka.

At least Andres is attractive. I could accept her as Katara or Suki, no doubt. Suki works better, assuming that Patel will wind up as Sokka (please, gods), since to be a believable relative, Katara's going to need a tan.

That's an important point; some people refuse to believe this, because the timing is so peculiar. McCartney gave an interview a mere ten days ago, in which he stated that he was already training heavily, including sword training. He wouldn't be doing sword training unless things were serious.

So is Jesse a prevaricator?

It does shed light on the fact that he was unable to recall the last names of his co-stars, that he was unable to recall even one other characters name (whiffing miserably on Sokka), that he was unable to get one morsel of information correct about the television show save for the fact that it was a show that aired on television...

But would such a disastrous interview really affect such an important role? Were Tucson-area cubical slaves listening to top-40 morning-commute DJ scum that outraged? Things don't add up here.

I'm guessing it's a combination of the two complaints. The studio and Night were already under a lot of shit from the fans about having Jesse/white kids in a story where white people don't really exist. Then this Rtard gives that fantastic interview in which he can, not only, NOT explain his character or the movie, but he can't remember any of his co-stars names either. At this point, they probably realized he needed to be taken out or backlash would just worsen.

Shit. Maybe the outburst of "NO WHITEY!" was so great that the studio didn't realize how big the franchise is. Maybe it's bigger than any of us realized and they're shifting the focus from "cash cow adaptation" to "next transformers" and making a serious attempt at it.

Maybe. Just maybe. If we're really lucky. Jesse was pushed on Night by the studio and he heard about the interview, then listened to it and thought "Fuck. That kid has to go no matter what. I can't have him messing up something this awesome."

Maybe.

I don't know... I'm reticent to believe that we have any possibility to influence anything.

Not us. We're the fans of the television show.

Maybe if there's controversial issues with the second movie, and fans of the first movie contend with outrage, but us... we're tainted. Scourge. A plague upon their box office. They want us to go away. After we paid, of course. best case scenario for them: people like us are taciturn consumers, and that we contribute to the success of the movie. A success that leads Bryke to forego television forever.


My guess is that:

A.) Jesse read the criticism on the internet and decided that he could make more money, with exponentially higher adulation, on tour.
2.) Dev became available, unexpectedly, and executives wanted to do anything to get his name on this.

"I heard about the series from my little brother who's an avid 'Avatar' fan," he explained. "I heard about the project, and that Night was directing it. He flew me out to Philly to read with him. I worked with him a lot on the character. He called me on my phone and was like, 'I want you to play this character.' And we took it from there."

Keep in mind, MTV is involved in the making of this movie, and EVEN THEY MADE THE "IMPORTED FROM ASIA" MISTAKE. :uwah :facepalm :hurr

Also:

McCartney is also looking forward to working with Rathbone — who will also be filming "New Moon" this year — on the movie. "He was there for the reading and he and I have been in training together. We're flying in a few weeks to start production and then to Greenland to start filming. He's a super nice guy. We've been getting along great."

Fangirls are treading softly but at least this one is being honest about why she thinks Dev won't work for the role. Sorry but your dream casting choice of a J-pop or K-pop male singer just isn't going to happen. Let's move on.

Though, to me, I'd say Zuko is a better Sasuke that doesn't fail :LOS
His character is more important, I think, but it helps if the actor looks fairly like him. I don't think it would be hard, most people remember his scar, and his hair, so if the actor just looks a bit like him, a convincing illusion can be pulled off.

Still, I'm far more interested in their acting.

He'd work for young Aang. Re: being bald and whatnot: He'd work as well as any other little white kid, I'm sure. Probably better than most, actually, since he has extensive ninja fighting experience on his CV.

P.S. Being bald isn't the most common of things for non-cancerous youths, but having a blue arrow on your skull is even less so. I'm not going to say he can't do it until I see that he has a horrible scars across his scalp that can't be arrow'd out of sight. XD

you're probably a better judge for his age than I am. I grew up in a family where each of us were unusually tall for our ages so I've never been too good at gauging from height.

Keep in mind, those are the only two awards the show was nominated for. No nominations for The Track Team, writing, character design, character animation, storyboarding, or voice acting. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v256/thetechkid/Smiles/Sokkapalm.png

In effect his growth would have been brought to a hault thus the reason when he came out of the iceberg he didn't look like a 112 year old boy.

Really? He looks just like him, and figured since CM doesnt talk it would be tough for Common to act bad.

Combustion Man probably won't even be in the third movie. As awesome as he is, he really has no overall effect on the story.

I've never liked Common. In any way, actually.

I would say that Combustion Man isn't even necessary as well, but he's the crucial device that brings Zuko and the Gaang together. Actually, the movie is the perfect genre for his character. Whereas he should have been the persistent menace that provided stability to the first half of Book 3, and the fact that he wasn't was a missed opportunity, in the movie it's perfectly acceptable for him to be an auxiliary villain.

So what, you think M.Knight should take some creative license to give Sparky some more screentime? Risky gamble.

Not really. What I meant was that the amount of screentime he got on the show was insufficient, but that same amount would be just right for a film.

I dunno CM was a blatant device in book 3, but that was only relevant in the one episode where Zuko tries to join the Gaang. His presence in any or essentially the rest of the episodes was mostly filler unless you want to count the part where Zuko initially hired him to cover his ass in making sure Aang was really dead, but they could easily create something else for that in the movie. I guess what I'm getting at is because CM was merely a device that had little to no effect on anything else in book 3, he could be easily replaced by something more convenient for the plot in a movie.

^Looks more like it's going to be all live action if the movie is successful.

Dammit, it's not "filler!" Filler does not and can not exist in an original work! :pek

Combustion Man was a huge lost opportunity for the show. I don't feel like any of us are at fault for having expected a more substantial role. Remember SDCC? Remember this?

That poster suggested the Combustion Man would be the undergirds of Book 3, even before we knew who he was, or even his alignment. Look at the poses! Aang would be haunted by this menacing presence; Zuko would be equally disturbed, with CM acting as the object that forces him to truly question his ethics as the Fire Nation Prince.

Without CM, though, maybe Ozai will be pervasive. But I'd rather have SSBM than have M. Night find his own way to align Zuko with the Gaang.
