- One movie for Book One, but much different than how it was portrayed in TLA.
- Two movies for Book Two, as we can have either The Drill or The Serpent's Pass be the big finale for the second movie, and have Appa's Lost Days (one of my favorite episodes) as the opening prologue scene.
- Two movies as well for Book Three, as this can greatly expand upon the miscellaneous things that happened between both The Awakening and The Day of Black Sun, as well as the other events that occurred between Black Sun and Sozin's Comet.
- One of the things I would prefer are more expansions on how Zuko would fit into the group, and expanded conversations Aang has with each Avatar while on the back of the Lion Turtle.

ALL POSTSThe Last Airbender remake (Thread #2)
<p>This is a follow-up thread to my previous one about a possible remake/reboot series for <i>The Last Airbender</i>. To rephrase/update the original thread description -
</p><p><i>Since it has been over six years since </i>The Last Airbender<i> was released (which we all know, simply put, sucked), and there has not been much talk for a prequel due to the overwhelming backlash, I think there should be a remake series, of course with a different director.</i>
</p><p>IMO, this should be the list:

<p>Ah, sweet <i>Tumblr</i>. You never fail to amuse me with your deep sensitivity towards everything. But it's not Azula's attractiveness that make us view her as a villian. It's really not. She wore a robe in one episode and beach appropriate clothing in another. Pretty much every other scene involved her wearing armor (and not even the revealing armor the Fire Nation female guards wore, Azula wore <i>real </i>armor) or multiple layers of clothing that revealed absolutely nothing even the most perverted minds could deem sexual. Even in Smoke and Shadow, she wore clothing that revealed nothing explict and wore even a mask for the majority of the trilogy? Soo...yeah. If there's any character who's being overly-sexualized by the fandom and the show itself, it's Ty Lee, IMO. </p>

<p>And people love Ty Lee, so this person's claim doesn't make sense even by its own insane internal logic.

<p>I doubt the commentary/introduction by the creator would be used. The writers would certainly have to really change up themes and the overall presentation of the show to get the same effect. The end product would most likely drive away most of the fans of the original.

<p>Still, you can't deny that it could be like that if it were done by HBO.

<p>Nothing could be worse than the horror that is Dragon Ball: Evolution, especially if you're a DB/DBZ fan.

<p>Well, since this is the Avatar Wiki, that is not true here. It may be true to you guys over at the DBZ Wiki, but here, TLA is the worst of the worst. </p>

Why did the attempts of the American versions often ended in failure for what originated from Eastern cultures?

<p>Believe it or not, Americanized adaptations of Eastern-influenced source materials have gotten better over the years. It's just that the standards have also become much higher, particularly after M.Night joined the attempts. AFAIC, "the worst of the worst" is still The Guyver movie from 25 years ago. Compared to that whitewashed shitfest, Dragonball Evolution is a GAWD-DAHM masterpiece. <span title=":evil:">
