http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0938283/fullcredits#cast

Most are white, some are Indian (Zuko will be played by Dev Patel of Slumdog Millionaire and Aasif Mandvi of the Daily Show will play Commander Zhao)and Uncle Iroh's from Iran. Only one guy is from the East Asian area, a Korean actor.

Hey, maybe this is Shyamalan's attempt at blurring the racial lines.

Man, I wanna watch this film already.

*nods head vigorously at Uncle Gravy*
Aang needs bigger eyes! I still feel bad about the (repeatedly denied)whitewashing. -_- Dev Patel is ok but WHERE IS THE SCARRRR?! They should've made it more obvious. I am seriously excited to see what Toph is going to look like though. *avatarded*

There are rumors that Toph is going to be played by a black girl. No major fusses about that because I think black girls are sassy.

Not just any Iranian, too.

Iroh = Yinsen.

Trailer.

Wow. That was a whole load of nothing. Nevertheless, the martial arts look good and airbend-y. Also, was that the same narrator from the animated opening sequence?

Speaking of Avatar...

Does anyone know where my DVDs are?

Take this time as well to ask for things back from me. I know I has them.

I heard M. Night essentially said in an interview that he cut most of the humor and kiddy stuff out of the series and now it's a super srs business story.

RUN FOR THE HILLS.

Behind the scenes! So exciting! Watch them smile at something off camera (except for Aang, who looks depressed as careless whisper everytime)! The bottom right is Iroh (not an extra from some epic-ass fantasy flick) texting his son to come back from the war alive.
