I’m familiar with the original series; were there any differences in characterization or plot that you thought were improvements to the series, or anything you didn’t care for in that regard?

My family liked how they made the different nations into different races. Fire Nation seemed middle eastern; Water Nation was inuit; Earth Nation were asian; Air Benders seemed more universal. We kind of wished Sokka was a little more goofy, like the animated series.

I particularly liked how Aang was portrayed. The weight of the world showed in his emotions, especially the very last scene of the movie, when the Water Nation bowed to him - the look on his face said it all. And the scene earlier when he returned to the monk's temple and saw the devastation; "I was just here yesterday!"

I do hope the producers let Shaymalan make the remainder of the 3-part series. I think the final battle with the Phoenix King in live action/CGI would be awesome.
