Not to get all mystical and Guru Pathik or anything but... Avatar has its own fate and destiny, just like every soul who is drawn to it. Avatar already existed before Mike and Bryan even knew they knew it existed. Avatar is an idea much larger than itself and therefore regardless of what 'name' is eventually attached to it to introduce it to the mainstream population... It will find its way into the hearts and minds of those who were destined to hear it... In other words, there can be no 'wrong' name for this movie, because fate will lend a hand and the name which will help Avatar to fulfill its destiny will automatically be chosen. Just as Mike and Bryan were chosen to bring Avatar to life...

^ Ditto.
Lets face it, Cameron's Avatar came first.

The title kind of sucks, but it's not too big of a difference. It's still Avatar, even without the Avatar. Which sounds really stupid but I hope you guys get what I'm saying.
LOL WUT pear... I'd forgotten how much I love that thing. XD

Has anyone thought about if Shamalyan will pick a role in the movie for himself? He is almost always in some minor role in his movies. I'll let him be Foamy Mouth Guy just for kicks, lol.

The Avatar movie (the last airbender one) will be great with whatever name it's released. I think that's it, right?

^^Well, it's not a bad title but hopefully they still call it "The Legend of Aang" here in Asia. As for a minor role for him. I see him as the Cabbage Man!^_^

LOL And hey there Dave, yeah it's me from DBF Trivia Night. I'll try to consider my audience when posting in the future and refrain from any in-depth spiritual analysis of Avatar. *deep sigh* I was 'a stranger in a strange land...'

God I'm moving into a 'Nandireya-Epic-Proportion-Avatar-Funk' now... *sigh* Not good... Yeah when you asked me which Avatar fansite I frequent most...I said TV.com because I'm like Level 16 over there...LOL Here I'm uber-newb status, so I didn't even think to mention DH in chat at DBF. I've enjoyed your posts here so it was a pleasant surprise you ended up being my trivia partner.

Fuego, can you translate this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VFRMib40l4It's a commercial for the airing of Boiling Rock:1 in Brazil. Apparently they will be seeing it before we will. (Don't get me started) Can you tell us what the voice over is saying in Portuguese?

I hope the movie will live up to the series reputation. I love avatar and it would be sad to see a bad movie made about it Id still watch it though, whether good or bad. The title bugs me a little bit but not that much

Shyamalan has been offering lots of interviews lately. I don't know. It's really hard to tell how it will all turn out but I do know everyone in our family will see it at least once.
