Re: The Last Airbender movie
Yeah, I'm not a huge M. Night Shyamalan fan to begin with. I like Signs and Unbreakable is OK, but all of his other movies that I've seen suck. This was actually one of the better ones but, like you said, I don't think he could handle the effects. This might have been his first movie with big effects like that in it, I guess it should probably be his last.
I can see why he did what he did with the Firebenders, so that the one who could conjure up the fire on his own stood out, but if that's now it was done originally, he probably shouldn't have done it. Unfortunately, he's not the first director to make that mistake when doing an adaptation and he most likely won't be the last.
