I was looking at the teaser trailer (for only the second time) and all I could think was:
Zuko: "Dude! You totally stole my broody hoody robey thing! Give it back!"

Chaobunny: Two words: EPIC WIN. XD But seriously, don't judge a book by its cover. You never know about this movie, it could actually be decent.

An updated version of my opinion. Edit: Why is there an ad in my post? TOTALLY LOVE THIS! ![](http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii59/dhsmiley/SokkaLove.gif) The Ember Island Players was spot on. Even M&B let slip in their commentaries of that episode that the last lines in the show were directed at the movie. Talk about foretelling!

![](http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii59/dhsmiley/OTKyoshi.gif) I just read on the Racebending Livejournal that they're replacing the Chinese calligraphy of the show with a gibberish language. Looks like they're trying to completely de-Asianize the whole thing. :/ Cant believe I missed this point!

Season 1 really isn't epic and suspenseful like they're making it be. I just hope there's lots of jokes and laughter in this movie.

Curtis did not even watch the show for research. "I haven't watched the TV series to get confused by it," Curtis said. "I wanted to take his lead on what way he wanted to take the franchise. He's had to condense, I don't know how many episodes, but two or three years' worth of television episodes into three movies." The series told stories of four groups of "benders," based on the four elements: earth, air, fire and water. Ozai's powers tend to be destructive. "The fire lord loves fire," Curtis said. "He's responsible for it. He's sharing it with the rest of the planet." Ozai's costume was a highlight for the live-action shoot. "Outstanding, the most beautiful costume I've ever had in my career, actually," Curtis said. "It's sort of like a cross between Roman and kind of Greek, gold, Roman and Greek military/samurai military [uniform]. It's really, really beautiful."

Meh, I really don't think Curtis really needs to have a reference to be Ozai. Its not like he would have a huge role in the firs movie anyways. He just needs to burn Zuko.

scifiwire.com/2009/08/last-airbender-villain-lo.phpHaha one of our most well known actors showing a kind of lazy side, us kiwi’s can be a bit too lazy at times ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) . I’m still not all the sure on him as Ozai, for one he looks nothing like the guy who is playing Zuko, yet but we are yet to see any of what he has done for the film yet, he might just do an amazing job.

scifiwire.com/2009/08/last-airbender-villain-lo.phpLol, Ozai's "Sharing" it with the world with extreme prejudice. [scarcasm] And what's wrong with caucASIAN actors anyway, Asian's defiantly in there...[/sarcasm] Paramount has the sight version of selective hearing...

I was hoping we wouldn't see Ozai till 3.... I really liked how they kept his face hidden.

Since the faitfullness of the film to the series has been brougt into question, I dont think that can be taken for granted. They may have Firelord Ozai doing a lot more. Anyway, I think its pretty darned lazy if an actor cant take the effort to watch at least a few half hour episodes of a Nickleodeon cartoon the adaptation of which he is staring in. Not the most laboursome of homework assignments.

Not the most laboursome of homework assignments. Good points but I trying to put myself in the guy's shoes. And the reason why I think he would pass up watching some episodes is because he may try to imitate him if he saw him. So I also think he won't be in many scenes due to him not wanting to be confused and imitate ozai. With less scenes he needs to make them as best as he can and therefore won't take the risk.
