Avatar Casting... the drama continues!

[gargoylekitty]

Some quotes for your raging pleasure.

Jackson Rathbone: "I think it's one of those things where I pull my hair up, shave the sides, and I definitely need a tan," he said of the transformation he'll go through to look more like Sokka. "It's one of those things where, hopefully, the audience will suspend disbelief a little bit." source

Person from casting: "We want you to dress in traditional cultural ethnic attire," she said. "If you're Korean, wear a kimono. If you're from Belgium, wear lederhosen." source

Jesse McCartney: "It's based on an anime series that was huge...like, a cartoon anime series called Avatar: The Last Airbender that was...that was explosively huge in Asia...they brought it to the US and it was on for, like, three seasons." source

I hope more than ever that they're trolling the fandom with this bullshit.

Uhhhh.

I haven't broke it to Eric yet that they are making what appears to be a craptastic movie. This is one of his favorite shows. It would be way better if it was CGI or animated. :/

Wait, the second quote is a joke, right?

RIGHT?

I'd try and defend it, mainly because I still want to believe this could be good, but I want to slap the person who thought McCartney was a good idea for anything! And then punch McCartney in the face, just because.

If I was at a desk right now I'd head it.

Oh god.

This...has to be a joke. Right?

Agh.
