Some cartoons/anime are perhaps better left as anime.
I’m not sure where Avatar the last Airbender fits…i guess we’ll have to wait till 2010.
The movie is being directed by ‘I see dead people’ M . Night Shyamalan. Variety notes that The creators of the Nick TV series were heavily influenced by Japanese anime filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki.
Shyamalan, who will direct from a script he penned, said Miyazaki is one of the greatest storytellers in the world. “In ‘The Last Airbender,’ I see an opportunity to make a live-action version of a Miyazaki film,” Shyamalan said.

Oh dear, this Shamalamadingdong guy can’t see past his own ego! His films have all been a huge disappointment so far and now he wants to abuse someone else’s genius in a vain search for vicarious glory. It’s easy when watching Miyazaki to imagine ‘an opportunity to make a live-action version of a Miyazaki film’. For most people though, this fantasy lasts a few seconds before they realise that the art in an integral part of the storytelling.
Miyazaki IS ‘one of the greatest storytellers in the world’, but this is down to a rare comination of story, script and art. To take any of these things away makes it something else, something inferior. Take the frank out of a hotdog and you get an onion sandwich! I’ve wasted too much of my precious time already on Shyamalan’s onion sandwiches, they are unsatisfying and have a nasty tendancy to repeat. Indefinitely.
Please, M. Knight, just this once don’t think of the money, ignore the thoughts of your amazingly contrived moniker appearing in lights and being spoken of ‘mantra-like’ by a gruff toned voice-over man. You cannot improve on any of Miyazaki’s work. You should not try.
