I noticed the hairstyle differences! They didn't bother me much, though, because I hate Zuko's hair in season 1 of the cartoon anyway, and Iroh's just looked so amazing in the movie. God, I loved his look. I think he was the best out of all of them as far as wardrobe went. (Also, even after reading Shyamalan's explanation in his interview, people are still screaming at him for being racist anyway, despite the fact that he cast two of the heroes [since I've heard Zuko and Iroh become protagonists later] as Indians. I MEAN JESUS. HE'S SO RACIST. MAKING MIDDLE-EASTERNERS HEROES AND ALL.)
For me it just seems like...if one group of benders can do it without a source, then all of them should be able to. Like in the cartoon when the earthbenders are imprisoned on that metal ship, it's so they can't earthbend. (Although what about the earth at the bottom of the ocean??) If the firebenders and ultimately Katara don't need a source, then the earthbenders and airbenders should be given the same thing. UNLESS THEY DO LATER ON AND I JUST HAVEN'T GOTTEN THERE YET.
I'm guessing Katara will probably get more significance in the next movie. I was still surprised that the movie wasn't even two hours. It should have at least been two and a half, if not three full hours. He was trying to fit 20 episodes of 23-24 minutes each into a movie that's an hour and forty minutes. I think that was a pretty stupid move on his part. Probably his biggest mistake, imo.
I wouldn't even mind the comedy in the cartoon if there weren't so much! And if so much weren't so ridiculous. There have been things that made me laugh so hard (like when they got out of the love cave and Katara asked why Sokka's forehead was red and he facepalmed when the hippie guy said something else stupid OH GOD I LAUGHED SO HARD LMFAO). But some of it is too cracky for me (like Boomy). It's just really geared toward humor for kids, which is why I'm a little :/ about it.
I'm really curious to see who they cast as Toph and what her appearance will be in the next movie. I finished episode 6 of season 2 and haven't had time to watch more yet, but she was just introduced. (The part where they're having dinner with her family and Toph earthbends Aang under the table so that his chair slams foreward and he faceplants into his bowl was so funny omfg ndsabjh.)
The hate that people have for this movie is unbelievable. You're a huge fan and even you said you liked it. I can see why some people would be upset because he didn't include some things/changed some things, but to outright say it's the worst movie of all? Man, I dislike the Harry Potter movies, but they're nowhere near the worst movies ever, and they're pretty lame in comparison to the source material. People just have this undying hatred for Shyamalan because most of his movies do suck. I think he could make the most amazing movie in the world and critics and fans would still boo. Which really makes me sad.
